Smith, Chair Investment Committee Drexel Burnham Lambert Bankruptcy Consideration (Proceedings) The Investment Committee met October 24, 1990 at the offices of Clark, Klein & Beaumont . P re sent were Dorothy A. Johnson , John E. Marshall III , Richard K. Rappleye and Leonard W. Smith, Chair . Mr. Ni c h ol as M. Gabriel and Judith S. Hooker participated by telephone. Also present was Jonathan T . Walton, Jr . , legal counsel. Mr. Donald A. Lindow j oined the meeting in progr ess. The first item was to receive a report on the Drexe l Burnham investment a n d recommend a course of action to the CMF Board. The Committee previously received the 10 / 17/90 Clark, Klein & Beaumont memo e ntitl ed , "Status Update and Alternatives for Future Action ." Mr. Walton discussed the memo a nd the is sues involved. He noted t h at CMF 's proof of claim has been f il ed in the bankruptcy proceeding. He said there i s some optimi s m that a distribu tion will be made to unsecured creditors, b ut the timi ng of distribution is uncertain. The Committee dec i ded to recommend continued monitoring of the bankruptcy proceedings by Clark , Klein & Beaumont . The possibility of pursuing a legal claim against Mr. Risselade, Abbit Management or Anderson & Bylsma was discussed by Mr. Walton. Based on the memo, the investigation done by Mr . Walton, and the October 5, 1990 meeting of Mrs . Jo hnson, Mr. Smith and Mr . Walton with Mr. Risselade and his attorney, the Committee concluded that CMF has a good legal claim against Mr. Risselade , Abbit Management or Ande rson & Bylsma to recover the value of the Drexel comme rc ial p aper. Mr. Walton said the claim could be pursued through arbitration or the curcuit court . The cost could be close to $50 ,0 00. CMF has incurred approximately $ 10 ,000 in legal fees t o date . Howe ver, the li kelihood of collecting an arbitration award or cour t judgement is u ncertain a nd would be difficult and t i me consuming . The collection costs to CMF could approach an additional $10,000 . The likelihood of collecting i s complicated by Mr . Risse l ade's pre sent circumstances and his "stonewalling" strategy. Because of the uncertain likelihood of collection , the subs tantial cost and time i nvolved in litigation and collection proceedings, and the possibility of at l east partial reimbursement through the bankruptcy proceedings, the Committee decided to recommend that CMF not pursue . litigation against Mr . Risselade, Abbit Management or Anderson & Bylsma at the present t im e ~ However , the Committee d i d ~ ~ recommend that CMF pursue dis c iplinary proceedings agai nst Mr. Risselade , Abbit Management and Ande r son & Bylsma t hrough the various broker li cen sing agencies. Mr . Wa l to n said tha t CMF cou ld use its own staff to pursue this remedy .

The extra $500 will come f rom the program budget supported by the interest from the invested earnings. This allows each f oundation to receive the requested amount. The special Trustee committee working on the Drexel bankruptcy problem is meeting regularly. The committee ant icipates receiving some funds from Drexel although how much or when is uncertain. The W.K. Kellogg Foundation has indicated their continued support of the program and their willingness to provide up to $400,000 to complete the operation of the Community Foundation Youth Initiative Project. Approval of these challenges authorizes the community foundations to begin raising the match. They have until October 31, 19 93 to do so. Grants will not be paid out until all requirements of t he challenge are met. The lag time between the authorizations and the payment should allow the Drexel problem to be resolved. A copy of the minutes of t he October 10 , 1 990 Advisory Committee meeting are available upon request. A more detailed account of the grant requests proposed for approval is attached. �3-2 Counci l of Michigan Foundations Community Foundation Youth Project Advisory Committee Grant Recommendations Summary October 31, 1990 The following Michigan community foundations have applied for authorization to raise funds to receive a challenge grant award through the Michigan Community Foundation Youth Project of the Council of Michigan Foundations funded by the W.K.

The youth for the committee have been identified. The Foundation is very aware of the severity of the problems faced by their community.

Hencey, Chairman Membership Services Committee Report The Membership Services Committee met on Thursday, July 12, 1990 to review CMF services and discuss how the organization can look to expand service programs and delivery. Update on activities of Membership Services Committee follows: Detroit Area Grantmakers W. Calvin Patterson, Executive Director, McGregor Fund has taken over as Chairman and Glenn F. Kossick, Executive Director, Me tro Health Foundation as Vice Chairman of the Detroit Area Grantmakers. The planning committee met this summer and have confirmed the following times and program topics: October 9, 1990 November 13, 1990 December 11, 1990 January 22, 1991 February 12, 1991 March 12, 1991 April 9, 19 91 Update on W. K. Kellogg's Detroit Youth Initiative Michigan's Natural Environment: Strict Preservation or Managed Used Arts in the 90s Update on Detroit Strategic Plan Open Forum Educational Reform in K-12 Detroit's Economic Outlook Group Health Insurance As you know, a task force to look at the question of CMF's sponsorship of a group health insurance plan was initiated last year, and an insurance consultant was hired to advise the task force throughout this process. A needs assessment of the Council's membership was conducted, and the task force has been meeting with our consultant to explore various alternatives of coverage. Task force members met on October 10, 1990 with Michael Buck, Special Markets Manager of Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan, to discuss how BCBSM might be able to be helpful to us, and what kind of supporting data they would need in order t o consider developing an enhansed group policy for the Council. At that time, it was determined that CMF needed to �9-2 gather more specific information than we curren tly had at our disposal in order to interest BCBSM in continuing the deve lopme nt process. In order to expediate the data gathering process, and in a n attempt to generate an accurate accounting, the task force chairman, William w. Fritz, Vice President and Treasurer of the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, has arranged to survey each CMF member by telephone on Monday, October 29, 1990. Task force members will be meeting to review the data and to decide a future course of action within the next few weeks . Annual Report Recognition Program A new feature at the 18th Annual CMF Conference will be the Annual Report Assistance Service. Two experts from COF's Communcations Network will volunteer their time to rev iew CMF members annual reports and make recommendations. Following the conference a Task Force will be formed to structure the Annual Report Recognition Program, with plans to implement the program and results announced at the 19th annual conference. Institute for New Staff Plans are underway for the first CMF Institute for New Staff to be held in 1991 in Grand Haven. It is the committee's desire to hold this seminar on a yearly basis, or possibly every 18 months. CMF Membership Roster The first edition of the CMF Membership Roster will be circulated to the Membership in early November . Each CMF Member organization completing the questionnaire will receive one free copy. The roster is for use by CMF members and other grantmaking organizations and is restricted to that use alone. Additional copies will be available for CMF Members - $10.00 and Non-Member Foundations - $35. 1843A � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

The Definition is intended as a basis for determining community foundation membership eligibility in the Council. It will also provide guidelines for the Council in providing technic al assistance to member community foundations and, as appropriate, in other Council programs relating to community foundations. It should be emphasized that there is no official definition of a community foundation in federal or Michigan law . The Definition was drawn by CMF from the provisions and requirements of the U. S. Internal Revenue Code and related Treasury Regulations. The Definition is followed by a Glossary of technical and legal terms.

Calvin Patterson III, Chairman Information Systems Committee Information Systems Committee Report The Information Systems Committee met February 13, 1 991 to discuss several issues. Michigan Donor History Proiect Robert E. Hencey, Director , Special Projects, W.K. Kellogg Foundation presented the rationale and a potential list of philanthropists for a Michigan Donor History Video Project . The reasons for producing a series of videos are: 1) as a historical record, 2) as an inspiration to donors and philanthropists, 3) to inspire others to form foundations, 4) to provide a model to other foundations that wish to record their own history and 5) to share with other national philanthropic archives . Mr. Hencey noted that printed materials and audio cassettes could be developed from the videotapes, if deemed appropriate. The project was hardily endorsed by the Information Systems Committee which offers the following recommendation: RECOMMENDED that the Board of Trustees support the Donor History Project with a budget of up t o $20,000; $2,000 of which is reflected in the 1991-92 budget with the remainder to be allocated from the 1990-91 Fund for the 90s Fund Balance. The Michigan Foundation Directory The 7th edition, published and distributed last November, has had brisk sales with over 1,700 sold and revenue totalling $35,207. Appreciation was expressed to James M. Richmond, Chief Operating Officer, The Frey Foundation, for his revisions to the "Proposal Process" section of the Directory . The Update to the Directory will be issued this summer. Following a communication from CMF's legal counsel, Duane L. Tarnacki o f Clark, Klein & Beaumont, the Michigan Attorney General's office has sent Logos Associates a letter advising Logos that their publication, the Directory of Maior Michigan Foundations, may contain misleading and inaccurate information and that their marketing to Michigan consumers �may violate Michigan ' s Consumer Protection Act . The Attorney General's office has requested a copy of the directory in order to determine whether their publication falls afoul of the Consumer Protection Act or any other Michigan law . No formal response has been received at this time . Other Publications Several suggestions and ideas were shared by the I nformat i on System Committee members regarding changes and additional information t o revise and expand CMF publ i cations . A thanks to the Committee for their time and helpful ideas. WCP/jfll391B � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Kellogg Foundation in its history," notes Dr. Russell G. Mawby, Chairman of the Foundation. "This award recognizes the importance of the locally focused community foundations and our c o nfidence in their ability to play a pivotal role in the future of philanthropy in the State of Michigan. Also, the involvement of young people in the philanthropic process plants the seeds for a future generation of charitably spirited Americans." The gift is a challenge grant which requires $2 of local donations to be raised and permanently endowed in each community foundation's unrestricted or field-of - interest fund, for each $1 of Kellogg funds received . The Kellogg funds must be permanently endowed in a youth field-of-interest fund. Once the funds are endowed, they will generate challenge grants to meet youth needs in perpetuity . Young people (under age 21) will be actively involved in each community in helping to meet local youth needs through individually designed youth advisory and volunteer projects. Each community foundation, which i s a member of the Council of Michigan Foundations, may apply for up to an aggregate of $1 mi llion from the Kellogg Foundation . "The W.K . Kellogg challenge provides an opportunity for the community foundations to help kids and to grow all at the same time", states Judith S. Hooker, Chair of the Board of Trustees for the Council of Michigan Foundations." �-3- The Council of Michigan Foundations will receive a total of $2 million of the $35 million gift over the 5 years for the purpose of providing technical assistance to the community foundations and for management of the project. The technical assistance includes outreach to areas of the State which are not yet served by community foundatio n vehicles. "The Council has, as a part of its mission, the goal of increasing the resources available to the nonprofit sector," reports Dorothy A. Johnson, President of CMF. "This grant allows us to extend and expand the network of Michigan's community foundations to make sure that every philanthropically spirited donor has a v ehicle available which can receive their gift for use in the local community forever. The $33 million which will go directly to permanent youth funds within local community foundations and the $66 million of permanent assets to be raised locally in order to meet emerging community needs will result in $99 million of new resources available at the local leve l for Michigan's communities within the next 5 years." Program Director for the project is Kathryn A. Agard. This is a continuation and expansion of a three year program funded by the W. K. Kellogg and Charles Stewart Mott Foundations. Further details of the grant are available from the Council of Michigan Foundations. The Council is a nonprofit association of 275 Michigan private foundation, community foundation and corporate grantmakers. The W.K. Kellogg Foundation, established in 1930 to "help people help �themselves," has distributed more than $1 billion is support of programs in agriculture, education and health. Areas of emphasis within those broad fields include youth and higher education; community-based, problem-focused health services; a wholesome food supply; philanthropy and volunteerism, and broadening the leadership capacity of individuals. Projects in opportunities for youth are concentrated mainly in Michigan; support for economic development projects is provided only in Michigan . The Foundation today is among the largest private philanthropic organizations in the world. It supports programs in the United States, Latin America, the Carribean and southern African countries . Limited worldwide involvement is achieved through international networks of activities related to the Foundation's programming interests . 0019K/2-5 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Getz, Chairman Thomas A. Bruce Frederick Bryant William E . Emery Beth Goebel Glen F. Kossick Mark A. Miller, Consultant Marvin McKinney W. Calvin Patterson, III Linda B. Patterson Ira Strumwasser Project Report, Grant Requests and Recommendation for Continuation ACTION REQUESTED : I . That the CMF Board of Trustees approve awarding grants in the sum of $65,500 to the following four recipients : American Red Cross of Ottawa County Children's Immune Disorder Grand Rapids AIDS Task Force Wellness Networks - Grand Traverse $18,000 10,000 12,500 25,000 Payment will be dependent on the conditions described in the proposal summaries . II . That the CMF Board of Trustees approve renewing the Michigan AIDS Fund mandate as a Council project for a second year. FUTURE OF THE MICHIGAN AIDS FUND: The Fund has thoughtf ully directed new funding support to encourage impo rtant projects in an area of emerging need. The Michigan AIDS Fund has succeeded in bringing substantial private philanthropic support to many Michigan AIDS projects for the first time . During the first year, the Michigan AIDS Fund committee has also provided p rofessional review of proposals submitted, and developed an excellent funding plan which was supported by CMF's Board of Trustees . The Michigan AIDS Fund 's accomplishments reflect the quality of its committee members, who are successful and skilled in grantmaking. The Fund's greatest challenge is fund development, a territory infrequently traveled by committee members. The Michigan AIDS Fund had an initial goal to raise $500,000 during its first year. Currently the Fund has raised $435,000 and is actively seeking to raise the remaining $65,000. �-2- CMF can be proud of the significant work that has been done within the carefully defined mandate of the Michigan AIDS Fund. It is now timely for CMF's Board to review the role of the fund for the future. The Michigan AIDS Fund Committee c~nsidered a number of future options: That the project be terminated at the completion of its first year. That the project seek another statewide organization to assume responsibility for the Michigan AIDS Fund . That the project be expanded to a full time Council-staffed standing. That the project be continued under its current mandate and direction. The committee decided upon the fourth option above, and i t is the recommendation of the committee that the Board of Truste es continue the Michigan AIDS Fund for a second year of the project. The Council would continue to administer the project, including approval of all grants. The project committee would continue its regular responsibilities of responding to CMF members interests i n the a rea of AIDS, fund raising activities in support of our grantmaking function, and monitoring of grantee project development. In addition, the committee will initiate consultations with staffed foundations to encourage collaborative efforts among various program officers, and publish some educational materials about the issue of AIDS program funding . Factors considered by the Committee in mak i ng the recommendation include : First, the Michigan AIDS Fund has provided critically important funding for AIDS projects . An impo rtant consideration in considering the Fund's future is the importance of that support in a climate of scare governmental s upport and a history of little other philanthropic support within our state. Second, the relationship to the National Community AIDS Partnership has the potential of providing significant national "matching funds" to Michigan. Future Fund plans should insure that we not lose the opportunity to capture those matching funds. Third , the Michigan AIDS Fund committee and support staff offer a professional resource to CMF members who wish to consider this issue independently . Fourth, the relationship to the Council of Michigan Foundations has provided the project a high level of confidence among funders. Future options that distance the Fund from the Council may place future support in jeopardy. GRANTEE CONFERENCE The Michigan AIDS Fund project is sponsoring a networking and technical assistance conference on Tuesday, March 5 , 1991 for grant recipients . It will be held at the Cedar Street Holiday Inn in Lansing from 9:00 a.m. - 4 : 00 p.m. 527! � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

This plan of work is based upon the information available in December 1990 regarding funding for the community foundation project for 1991-1992. While there is a possibility of support for the project to continue, these funds are not assured at this time. It is assumed that the W.K. Kellogg Foundation Community Foundation Youth Project grant will end June 30, 1991. It is assumed that the current Charles Stewart Mott Michigan Community Foundation Technical Assistance Project will end September 30, 1991 . It is assumed that the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation will entertain and approve an extension of the Technical Assistance Project for 3.5 years beginning October 1 , 1991 . CMF will need to apply for this second grant in the spring of 1991. Between the interest income from the Youth Funds still invested, and a continuing grant from the Charles Mott Foundation, this draft plan assumes funding for FY 1991-1992 will continue to be near its current level. If challenge grant opportunities currently being pursued with the W.K . Kellogg Foundation are forthcoming , the Plan of Work will need to be substantially revised to reflect a new level of programming . Goals I .

The meeting was called to order at 2:40 p.m. by Patricia B. Johnson, Chair. Committee members present in addition to Mrs. Johnson were Howard D. Kalleward, Richard K. Rappleye, Mary Caroline (Twink) Rottschafer, and Judith S. Hooker and Dorothy A. Johnson, serving in ex-officio capacities. Also present was Janice A. Oshinski, Ernst & Young, Richard T. Karppinen, CMF Financial Officer, Linda B. Patterson, CMF Administrative Director and CMF Staff Associate, Jeri L. Fischer, who recorded. Minutes The minutes of the June 7, 1990 Audit Committee were approved as presented. There being no further discussion, upon motion duly made, supported and unanimously carried, it was RESOLVED that the minutes of the June 7, 1990 meeting be approved. Review Audited Statement 3/31/91 Ms. Oshinski, Ernst & Young, conducted the review of the audited financial statements, a copy of which is appended to these minutes.

Proposed FASB Regulation Affecting Nonprofit Organizations Ms. Oshinski explained that the letter sent to the Financial Accounting Standards Board by Ernst & Young, a copy of which is appended to these minutes, was presented to the committee as an informational piece. Ernst & Young's position, as stated in the letter, disagrees with the FASB proposed statement of financial accounting standards, "Accounting for Contributions Received and Contributions Made and Capitalization of Works of Art, Historical Treasures, and Similar Assets" and suggests other alternative reporting requirements for nonprofits. Ms. Oshinski noted that Ernst & Young's position is that these regulations would not accomplish the FASB goal of consistency and uniformity of reporting for nonprofits. �Management Letter Ms. Oshinski presented to the Audit Committee a "no materials weakness" letter, a copy of which is appended to these minutes. She explained Ernst & Young noted no matters involving the internal control structure and its operation that they consider to be material weaknesses. Discussion with Management Excused Excusing Mrs. Johnson, Mr. Karppinen, Mrs. Patterson and Ms. Fischer, the Audit Committee discussed with Ms. Oshinski any questions they had on the management of the organization. The committee noted that all was in order. Mrs. Johnson thanked Ernst & Young and staff for their efforts.
