After Committee review, 55 organizations were asked to develop full proposals by the March 31, 1993 deadline. Based on subcommittee recommendations and full MAF Committee review, 36 proposals are now recommended for funding. The 1993 fundraising campaign, built on two challenge match awards, $75,000 the National Community AIDS Partnership and $25,000 from the Metro Health Foundation, raised a total of $790,620 from a diverse list of donors. On several occasions in the past year, the MAF has faced exceptional opportunities to advance the cause of the Fund, but lacked the authorization to support these activities. Each event -- to send Tammy Boccomino to Washington to testify at senate hearings in response to Senator Riegle's invitation; to host and arrange site visits for Miss America Leanza Cornett; and to support costs of bringing the Project Names AIDS Quilt display to Cabo Arena -- called for expenditures favored enthusiastically by the Committee and project staff but unauthorized. Therefore, our Committee requests that $45,760 be approved for "Emergency/Opportunity" needs for MAF-approved distribution. At this time we seek approval of the recommended grants totaling $554,240 and authorization for our Committee to consider up to $45,760 in proposal requests for "Emergency/Opportunity" funds. Summaries of recommended grants and a list of 1993-1994 supporting grants follow in the supporting materials. �- 31 - Letters of Intent Declined Multi-Culture Coalition American Red Cross, Kent County Chapter (AIDS in the Workplace) Arab-American and Chaldean Council Center for Higher Potential American Red Cross, Calhoun County Southeast Michigan Coalition on Occupational Safety and Health Scheurer Hospital Planned Parenthood of Mid-Michigan Michigan Department of Civil Rights Bridge Communications, Inc.

Located in Ferndale, Affirmations serves over 650 active members and is managed by a full- time director and three part-time staff. The Youth Services division targets youth, ages 25 and under, for a wide range of activities, events and supportive services. This grant will fund a "Youth Empowerment Project" focusing on HIV/AIDS prevention among high-risk youth in the Metropolitan Detroit area through peer education and leadership development. Utilizing up to 40 trained Peer Educators in collaboration with Ferndale's Wellness Networks, Inc., 300 high-risk youth will complete a series of risk-reduction HIV/AIDS educational workshops. AIDS Foundation of Kent County $15,000 The AIDS Foundation of Kent County, a fund of the Grand Rapids Foundation, was created in 1987 to provide needed funding to programs serving persons with AIDS, their families and other support givers. The Foundation Board is comprised of concerned community leaders committed to supporting innovative Kent County AIDS-related projects. A grant to The AIDS Foundation will supplement Foundation funding to continue two HIV/AIDS prevention peer-education outreach programs targeting high-risk adolescents and young adults in Kent County sponsored by Planned Parenthood and the Hispanic Center of West Michigan. American Red Cross, Calhoun County $10,000 With the American Red Cross as the lead agency, the Calhoun County Health Department and the county-wide AIDS Coordinating Committee sponsor county-wide AIDS educational projects with broad support from local funding partners and broad public school cooperation. This grant will support start-up costs for comprehensive community-based HIV/AIDS education and prevention programs, (1) ten seminars for area parent-teacher organizations, {2) forty-four educational workshops at school and community youth-group meetings, and, (3) eight seminars for parents of teenagers, under the leadership of the local Red Cross' HIV/AIDS Health Educator. American Red Cross, Midland County $5,000 Since 1986 the Midland county area has benefitted from a strong collaboration of the American Red Cross, the Midland County Health Department and city public schools. Building on a 1992 pilot program focusing on early intervention, this project will expand an early intervention "Parents as Resources for Youth HIV Education" project. This project will empower parents to become resvurces to their pre-adolesce n t children before high-risk behavior patterns develop. While this project extends three years and brings together diverse funding partners, a grant will underwrite start-up costs for the HIV Director for the first year. �-35American Red Cross. Ottawa County Chapter $30,000 Located in Ottawa County with its large Hispanic population, the Ottawa County Chapter of the American Red Cross has been involved in programs of AIDS Education for Hispanic migrant workers, funded at times by the Centers for Disease Control, the Michigan AIDS Fund and the American National Red Cross. The Ottawa County Needs Assessment, an MAF-funded study, invited renewed interest in AIDS education/prevention among the Hispanic Migrant Worker population and led to the present proposal to train AIDS/HIV instructors in seven west Michigan counties (Berrien, Cass, Van Buren, Allegan, Ottawa, Muskegon and Oceana) working with Hispanic migrant families. Building on successful past programs under the leadership of Hispanic Health Educator, Ms. Norma Luna, the project will employ training-model programs which overcome language and cultural barriers. Bay Area Social Intervention Services, Inc. (BASIS) $17,000 BASIS is a community-based nonprofit, Saginaw Bay area organization providing health services and prevention strategies. In addition to its substance abuse rehabilitation programs, BASIS operates an AIDS Care Program providing services for people living with HIV disease in the Saginaw, Bay and Midland county areas. This grant will enable BASIS to provide counseling, case management, emergency assistance and support services for 150 HIV-infected clients, their families, significant others and caregivers. Berrien County AIDS Coalition $8,000 Organized in 1988, the Berrien County coalition represents twenty different organizations (medical, legal, educations, social services, religious and business communities) and persons with HIV disease to serve the needs of Southwestern Michigan. The Michigan AIDS Fund had already identified this as a geographic region of concern (Berrien, Cass and Van Buren counties) because it shows one of Michigan's fastest growing prevalence rates for sexually transmitted diseases and increasing influx of HIV-infected residents diagnosed elsewhere but residing in the three-county area. This grant will underwrite, in partnership with the Berrien Community Foundation, coalition activities including needs assessments survey, strategic planning, speakers bureau, coordination of case management, "buddy" programs, the annual Hope and Remembrance event and development of a peer-education drama group. The Bridge - Houghton/Hancock $4,000 The Bridge, started with an early MAF grant, has become an established support group for people with HIV disease and their yearly fall retreat and spring regional events have become highly-valued outings for geographically-separated individuals and families affected by HIV/AIDS. This grant will enable The Bridge, with the Western Upper Peninsula District Health Department as fiduciary, to expand its program scope -- in addition to purchase of resource materials, sponsorship of annual events and improved computer equipment -- and jointly sponsor, with St. Albert the Great University Parish, an AIDS community workshop targeting the Michigan Technological University of Houghton/Hancock campus and surrounding area. �-36Children's Immune Disorder (CID) $20,000 CID was formed in 1985 as a community-based agency serving Southeastern Michigan with services for infants and children who have been diagnosed HIV-positive and their primary caregivers and siblings. The primary focus is to prevent fragmentation of HIV-positive families through a comprehensive range of on-site and in-home AIDS-related services. This grant will represent a continuation of support from the Michigan AIDS Fund. It will underwrite family support services, in-home care for HIV-positive infants and children, substance abuse counseling and will assist HIV-infected mothers in permanency planning and custody arrangements for infected and non-infected dependent children. Community Care Services (CCS) $12,000 Community Care Services is a nonprofit Downriver community mental health center providing diverse mental health and substance abuse services for residents of Allen Park, Ecorse, River Rouge, Lincoln Park, Taylor, Romulus and surrounding communities, an area with an estimated 500-600 persons with HIV disease but "no organized psychosocial support services." CCS proposes to offer two weekly support groups for people affected by HIV disease. One group will target people who are HIV infected and the second will support family, friends and loved ones of people with HIV/AIDS. Funding includes case management, counseling and therapeutic intervention services provided by part-time psychiatric and support services. Comprehensive AIDS Alliance of Detroit (CAAD) $20,000 CAAD is affiliated with the Wayne Sate University School of Medicine in Detroit and represents a multi-disciplinary coalition of health care providers, health educators, community service organizations, public health professionals and drug dependency programs. A pacesetter in AIDS-related health care services, CAAD cares for over 40 percent of Detroit's reported cases of AIDS. A grant award will be used for the expansion of mental health services for Detroit's indigent population with HIV disease. The Corner Health Center $26,000 The first (nonprofit) "teen health center" established in Michigan, the Corner Health Center is a community-sponsored provider of medical care and health education for low-income adolescents and their children. Its reputation for creative and effective "education for prevention" services qualifies the Center uniquely for work with at-risk adolescent populations. This grant will fund the Corner Theater Troupe, a professionally directed teenage drama team, to stage interactive, HIV/AIDS-focused drams in junior high, high school and community settings. �-37The Delta-Menominee District Health Department $4,440 Based in Escanaba and covering over 1,200 square miles of Michigan's rural Upper Peninsula, this Delta County project collaborates with Delta County Community Mental Health to prevent HIV infection in an area characterized by high unemployment, alcoholism and high-risk sexual behaviors associated with tourism and off-duty recreational activities for Air Force personnel from K.I. Sawyer Air Force Base. The "Talking with KIDS About AIDS" project will support HIV/AIDS prevention efforts through a community-based, adult-oriented educational program, the only one of its kind being offered in a county where "adults continue to harbor reservations about AIDS education in public school." Dickinson-Iron District Health Department $13,000 The Dickinson-Iron and Marquette-Alger health departments teamed up to propose community-oriented youth educational HIV/AIDS intervention and advocacy activities in Dickinson and Iron Counties. Working cooperatively with a two-county AIDS coalition, the Dickinson-Iron Health Department will be the lead agency to host a series of AIDS workshops in Dickinson and Iron counties, led by staff trained in Cornell University's AIDS education program who, in return, will train Marquette-Alger Intermediate School District classroom teachers in HIV/AIDS education. Grand Rapids AIDS Resource Center (GRARC) $13,000 GRARC has become the central planning, coordinating, referring and caring agency for persons with HIV/AIDS in West Michigan. Currently, GRARC provides direct services of all kinds (social, psychological, financial, legal, educational) to more than 150 persons with HIV/AIDS. Additionally, the Center collaborates with other community organizations offering resources and evaluation of HIV/AIDS-related services and issues. This grant will support two GRARC efforts: It will establish a fund to pay for mental health services for indigent HIV-positive clients and will provide a development/salary subsidy for GRARC's executive director. Health Emergency Lifeline Programs (HELP) $20,000 Begun in 1985 as Health Emergency Assistance of Detroit, HELP is a nonprofit, community- based response to AIDS. Its primary focus has been, and remains, direct services to AIDS patients, typically serving clients and families experiencing emergency needs in the end- stages of HIV disease. This grant will pay for nutritional supplements ("ENSURE") which help retain body weight and protein function in AIDS patients, thus "improving quality of life", delaying (or avoiding) institutional care and extending life. �- 38Hemophilia Foundation of Michigan (HFM) $10,800 HFM is a statewide health agency with offices in Ann Arbor exclusively dedicated to serving residents affected by hemophilia and HIV/AIDS. Since 1969 HFM has sought to improve the quality of life for all persons affected by hemophilia and related health programs including HIV/AIDS, through the support of individual, family and community services, education, health care and research. Reaching persons with hemophilia or their at-risk sexual partners presents major difficulties (fear, isolation) which have been successfully overcome by employing Peer Leaders with hemophilia and HIV disease. This project will provide leadership training to four Peer Leaders (two HIV-positive men and two women affected by HIV), management of a Peer Leader HIV/AIDS program and offer a retreat for HIV-positive clients and their family members. Inner-City AIDS Support Services, Inc. (ICASS) $20,000 ICASS is a human services organization, a community-based cadre of dedicated volunteers whose mission is to provide support primarily to women infected with the HIV virus and their dependents. Located in an urban East Detroit neighborhood, ICAAS was founded by concerned residents affected by HIV disease who found no support services for HIV-positive women in their section of the city. Funds for this project will cover start-up costs of two biweekly women's HIV/AIDS support groups, served by se a soned volunteer leade r s from urban churches in a high-risk inner-city ne i ghborhood. A grant will pay for the salary and benefits of the director, child care, transportation and administrative program expenses. Kalamazoo AIDS Resource & Education Services (KARES) "Assisted Living Project" $25,000 Since 1989 this community-based organization has provided assisted-living housing services for persons with HIV/AIDS in Kalamazoo County. Originally brought together as a support group for persons with AIDS, KARES has provided housing assistance, information and referral services, self-help support groups, volunteer training, emergency financial assistance and professional "AIDS Care" seminars for nursing/medical staff. This grant will help fund an educational, supportive strategy, in partnership with HIV/AIDS Service Network members, to secure the placement of PWAs who need supervised care in area hospice, nursing home and other assisted-living facilities. Kalamazoo AIDS Resource & Education Services (KARES) "Battle Creek Care Coordinator Project" $15,000 In a second, separate proposal, KARES seeks to re-establish the Battle Creek Cares (BC/CARES) volunteer organization in Calhoun County and has merged with the BC/CARES Board to assist in the development and dissemination of AIDS-related services for HIV- positive persons and their caregivers/families in Calhoun, Barry and Branch counties. A grant will cover the costs of a half-time AIDS care coordinator. �- 39Lansing Area AIDS Network (LAAN) $10,000 Depending on more than 100 volunteers and minimal full-time staff, LAAN has provided education, care coordination, psychological support, home health care and information and referral services for HIV-infected in Ingham, Eaton and Clinton counties since 1985. This award will underwrite the expansion of volunteer recruitment/retention programs, development of a strategic planning process and enlarge local development/fundraising capacity. Lesbian & Gay Community Network of Western Michigan $12,000 The Lesbian & Gay Community Network is a nonprofit community-based organization, funded primarily by member dues and contributions, promoting the interests of gays and lesbians in West Michigan. With 73 percent of reported Kent County AIDS cases reported to be gay males, the Network proposes creation of a cadre of trained education/prevention specialists to conduct educational seminars and informal talks in social settings hospitable to gays, lesbians and bisexuals. Additionally, AIDS educators will be trained to provide referral information for HIV testing/counseling and health care services. Merrill-Palmer Institute $30,000 The Merrill-Palmer Institute for Family and Human Development of Wayne State University, member of a coalition of eight community-based AIDS service organizations in Wayne County, provides clinical services through its Infant Mental Health program, as well as academic and clinical training programs for graduate-degree programs at Wayne State University. This project will support a multi-pronged project to provide services, training and advocacy on behalf of youth, children and families affected and infected by HIV disease. Called "Giant Steps," this program will target preschool children whose parent(s) and/or siblings are HIV infected, establish a support group for HIV-positive parents and schedule policy planning activities and training workshops (1) for infant mental health care workers/providers, and, (2) for in-home services to support families and children dealing with HIV disease. Michigan Protection and Advocacy Services (MPAS) $30,000 Michigan Protection and Advocacy Service is a private, nonprofit organization, founded in 1976, with a mission to advance the dignity, equality, se l f-determination, and expressed choices of individuals. MPAS promotes, expands, and protects the human and legal rights of people through the provision of information and advocacy. The HIV/AIDS Advocacy Program (HAAP) was created in order to provide legal advocacy services to Michigan citizens with issues related to HIV disease. An award will underwrite the costs of providing legal representation to clients in outstate Michigan areas, outside the seven-county area covered by Title I Ryan White funding. Awarded funds will cover salary and benefits only; other costs will be covered by Michigan Protection and Advocacy Service. �- 40Midwest AIDS Prevention Project (MAPP) $20,000 Since its founding in Michigan (1988) MAPP has earned the reputation as a reliable provider of HIV/AIDS prevention programs. MAPP has worked extensively with community groups, high schools, colleges and a variety of medical, professional and social organizations. This grant will enable MAPP to expand existing youth programs by 50 percent in areas selected in consultation with the Michigan Department of Public Health, based on projected HIV/AIDS/STD prevalence rates. Names Project, Metro Detroit Chapter $5,000 Known primarily for its work in overseeing Project Quilt displays in the Metropolitan Detroit area, the Chapter operates programs seeking to promote AIDS awareness and education and "offering opportunities for healing to the friends, families and loved ones who are left behind." Funds raised by various projects are used to fund "mini-grants of $350-500" for direct service AIDS agencies. Support for this project grants a financial stipend (undesignated) to be used in support of Names Project administrative and program expenses associated with Project Quilt and other Detroit Chapter activities. Ottawa County Community AIDS Council $15,000 Initiated by various health and human service organizations in the Holland-Grand Haven area, this Council succeeded in sponsoring a county-wide needs assessment and galvanized a unified approach to HIV/AIDS issues in Ottawa County. This grant will underwrite the salary of a part-time volunteer coordinator who will expand, organize and train a network of volunteers to work with persons with HIV disease and work with area churches to develop comprehensive policies and strategies for HIV/AIDS support services. Planned Parenthood League, Inc. $6,000 For more than seventy years, Planned Parenthood League, Inc. of Detroit has been providing reproductive health care services and sexuality education in the Metropolitan Detroit area. Its work with teenagers is largely accomplished by two Teen Theatre troupes working in Wayne and Oakland counties. Using the peer education model, Planned Parenthood's Teen Theatre groups will offer AIDS- specific educational presentations to six thousand Detroit-area teens in 1993-94. A grant will apply to costs of those programs and an additional effort to introduce Detroit-area community leaders to the Teen Theatre at a special promotional event. �-41Resource for Public Health Policy - University of Michigan $20,000 The Resource for Public Health Policy was created in 1986 by the faculty of the Department of Public Health Policy and Administration at the University of Michigan School of Public Health. Its mission is to link the scientific and technical expertise of the University with the needs of communities and governments in the assessment of public health, design of public health policy and assuring public health needs are met. This proposal calls for a step-by-step manual for AIDS planning groups and local coalitions to carry out community HIV/AIDS needs assessments locally and to draw up a detailed community plan to deal pro-actively with the AIDS epidemic. Publication and distribution of the manual, in addition to coordination and limited project assistance, will be accomplished in collaboration with the Michigan Department of Public Health. Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of Chippewa Indians $5,000 With a membership of twenty thousand, the Chippewa Indians Community Health Program seeks to conduct intensive AIDS education and prevention programs among high-risk Native Americans, ages 18-29.

Since 1982, the Association has become a trusted leader in addressing the health needs of persons with HIV disease. Funding for this program will continue testing/counseling and prevention services in the hotels of the Cass Corridor and extend AIDS services to select homeless shelter sites, principally the Fort street Presbyterian Open Door, Pontiac Rescue Mission, Liberties Drop In Shelter (Mt. Clemens) and Macomb County Shelter. Wellness Networks, Inc. - Ferndale $24,000 Founded in 1983, Wellness Networks is the oldest AIDS-specific community-based organization in Michigan. Using its current base of more than 500 volunteers and ten staff, services are provided in communities with high AIDS prevalence rates. A network of support groups in the Metropolitan Detroit area provides access in the tri-county area. This grant will establish an early intervention strategy providing on-site HIV counseling/testing services for evening and weekend hours with referral to primary care services and enrollment in the Wellness Network "Learning and Living with HIV Support Group." This project rises from the conclusion of a statewide task force study showing that early intervention, when combined with case management and psychosocial support retards progression of HIV disease, promotes healthy behaviors, enhances coping skills and improves the quality of life for HIV-positive persons. Wellness Networks, Inc. - Grand Traverse $27,000 Started six years ago, Grand Traverse Area Wellness group provides community education about HIV/AIDS and offers direct case management services to perso n s affected by HIV disease. With the spread of the epidemic, Grand Traverse Wellness has become the only area community-based provider of direct services and has a solid reputation for collaboration with Munson Medical Center and offices of the State Department of Public Health. An award will support development of increased financial/fundraising capacity, assist two county-wide AIDS coalitions and build the effectiveness of the Wellness volunteer corps by hiring a paid volunteer coordinator. Long-range planning assistance, together with other area AIDS-related groups, will build a unified HIV/AIDS strategy in the thirteen counties located in Michigan's northwestern lower peninsula. 246I � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Smith Dorothy A. Johnson Re: CMF Future Planning As you know the Board approved proceeding with a "Future Planning" effort with CMF Board and Members, including trustees, officers, and staff. The purpose of the planning and a proposed schedule is attached. The big news is that Ranny Riecker, past CMF Chair; President & Trustee, Harry A. & Margaret D. Towsley Foundation; Trustee, Herbert H. & Grace A. Dow Foundation; and Trustee, Council on Foundations, has agreed to chair the effort. A Committee is in the process of being formed including CMF Trustees and all member constituencies. Ideally, it will be announced June 9, 1993. We have engaged a consultant, Alice Buhl, to assist us in the process. Many of you have undoubtedly met Alice as she has participated in the last two CMF Annual Conferences leading sessions on Collaboration and Negotiation. As a consultant, Alice most recently served as Senior Vice President, Council on Foundations. Previously, she served as Executive Director of the Metropolitan Association for Philanthropy (St. Louis), our sister RAG. Alice has conducted the strategic planning effort for the Donors Forum of Chicago and consulted with several other RAGs. She knows CMF well, and we look forward to working with her. Alice will meet with the Board Thursday afternoon to explain the process and to explore the issues the Board wants included in the planning effort.

Johnson Re: President's Report In a new format, I wish to cover several issues for your information and comment at the June 9/10, 1993 Board meeting. MEMBERSHIP DESIGNATION - Type of Foundation CMF Chairman, Leonard Smith and I propose that CMF further distinguish the private foundation classification to independent foundations and family foundations. Classification is for CMF purposes only, and is not a legal definition. The definitions sometimes overlap, but CMF would ask each member to make their own designation. Independent foundations would be described as those foundations in which the donor, or heirs of the donor, are no longer actively involved with the operations of the foundation (e.g. The Kresge Foundation, The Skillman Foundation). Family foundations would be described as those foundations in which the donor, or heirs of the donor, actively serve in the operations of the foundation (e.g. Frey Foundation, Robert L. and Judith S. Hooker Foundation). The designations would assist CMF in programming. I would propose that the designation be made on the memberhsip renewal form, and on the membership application forms. SUPPORT ORGANIZATIONS - Progress Report At the March 11, 1993 Board meeting, the Board approved the creation of two supporting organizations, the Community Foundation Youth Project and the Michigan AIDS Fund. Organizational work is underway for both entities. Both committees have reviewed and accepted the necessary paperwork, with formal organizational meetings scheduled for July 29-30 - Michigan AIDS Fund, and August 4 - Community Foundation Youth Project. The CMF Board of Trustees has the responsibility and authority to appoint the boards of the supporting organizations. The following list of individuals is a preliminary list of potential board members. Others may be proposed in the near future. If you have any suggestions about additional members, or questions about proposed candidates, please let me know. Following the organizational meetings, the CMF Board of Trustees will be asked to formally approve the respective boards. Current CMF Board Members are noted with an asterick (*). -47- �- 48Community Foundation Youth Project (Proposed) *John E.

Miller Administrator and Director of Special Projects, Department of Mental Healt *W. Calvin Patterson, III Executive Director, McGregor Fund Ira Strumwasser Executive Director, Michigan Health Care Education and Research Foundation CMF attorney, Duane L. Tarnacki, has prepared the Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws, IRS 50l(c)(3) Exemption Application, State of Michigan Solicitation License Application and Questionnaire, Action of the Incorporator Statement, Management Agreement Letter and Donor Agreement Letter. The materials have been reviewed by CMF staff and the respective Committees. It is anticipated that an administrative agreement will be adopted by each support organization to receive services from CMF administrative staff (fiscal) and the CMF Investment Committee. An appropriate fee will be charged. Each entity will have their own D&O Liability Insurance. CMF PRINCIPLES & PRACTICES - Update and Recommendation Emmett D. Carson, CMF Chairman of the Principles & Practices Project, asked me to report to you a concensus and recommendation that CMF adopt the Council on Foundations' Principles & Practices (copy attached) as a statement of principles and values. You will recall that the Board adopted the project at the June 5, 1992 Board meeting and asked each Committee to review the COF statement and make a recommendation as to the appropriateness of CMF adopting this statement, or something similar, for use with the Members. The CMF Board indicated that the statement would be used with Members to assist in educating them about best practices. Members would NOT be required to sign the statement in order t o join or renew their CMF membership. �-50Several CMF Committees have discussed the issue at their regularly scheduled meetings. A clear concensus has developed to adopt the COF Principles & Practices as CMF Principles & Practices. While some individual committee members suggested further refinements, or perhaps stronger statements, it was felt adopting the existing statement was a good first step. It is envisioned that if the CMF Board adopts the statement at the June Board meeting, it will be circulated to the membership in the next few months with a letter from the CMF Chairman and chair of this effort, Emmett Carson. Emmet t would report at the CMF Members Annual Meeting November 4, 1993, as he indicated he would do in November, 1992. Proposed Resolution: CMF Board of Trustees adopts the Council on Foundations Principles and Practices for Effective Grantmaking for use with the membership and individual and corporate donors considering the formation of a foundation or fund within a community foundation. RECENT EVENTS AND UPCOMING MEETINGS Corporate Workshop - June 15, 1993 As of June 1, 1993, more than 50 corporate grantmakers are registered for an 11th Annual Workshop sponsored by CMF, the State Chamber of Commerce and Greater Detroit Chamber of Commerce. Co-chairs are Mark Trierweiler, AT&T a nd Kim Lan-Trinh, Chrysler Corporation Fund. CMF takes the lead responsibility. Community Foundation Activities - 45 participants attended the "Running the Business" Spring School - Computer Project: Over the past year a computer technical team has been reviewing the computer needs of the community foundations. A recommended solution will be going to the Community Foundation Committee on June 9th. The communi t y foundations hope to purchase common software and share the development and support costs. This collaboration will be helpful not only to the Michigan members, but to the community foundation field nationally and internationally. Seven Michigan community foundations have already contributed $1,000 each to start this effort. The networking possibilities, common data coding, and the efficiencies of an integrated system will substantially assist the management of community foundations . - New Trustee Orientation: The Indiana GIFT Program and the Ohio Donor's Forum are co-sponsoring an orientation for new community foundation trustees and staff on August 16 and 17 in Coldwater, Michigan. This is the second year of this collaborative effort with our neighboring states. Also under development is a joint Ohio and Indiana program for more senior level community foundation staff. - Field Presentations: Jim McHale will be presenting a session entitled Taking Charge: The Role of Youth for the Coalition of Community Foundations for Youth conference in Kansas City this summer. Kathy Agard will be presenting a workshop on marketing for community foundations at the Ohio Donors Forum annual meeting, on community foundation growth patterns for the Indiana Donor's Alliance annual meeting, and on growth patterns for the Council on Foundations Community Foundation meeting in Los Angeles this fall. These provide opportunities for CMF to share lessons being learned from our project for the benefit of the field. �-51-John R. Hopkins Chiars COF Conference: Jack Hopkins, Executive Director of the Kalamazoo Foundation and CMF Trustee, is chairing the Council on Foundations Community Foundation Conference this fall in Los Angeles. He reports that Charles Schultz, of "Peanuts" fame, will be joining the conference as a speaker.

Mawby, Chairman & CEO, and Dr. Joel J. Orosz, Program Director, W.K. Kellogg Foundation, to explore their interest in the Michigan Community Foundation Youth Project beyond 1996. Family Foundation Publication CMF is working with James M. Richmond, President, and Heidi L. Gilmore, Program Officer, Frey Foundation; and Nancy B. Smith, Plain English Writing Service, to prepare a workbook on family foundation intergenerational issues. It will be released this fall and used at the CMF Annual Conference. Improving Philanthropy Project This summer, the Improving Philanthropy Committee, chaired by Russell G. Mawby, will meet to review the substantial progress made in Michigan to encourage educational and experiential programs promoting voluntarism and philanthropy. The meeting will be hosted by the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, and open to the CMF membership. Participants will include respresentatives from most of Michigan's programs --Michigan Campus Compact; Grand Valley State University Center on Philanthropy and Nonprofit Leadership; University of Michigan Office of Community Service Learning; Michigan Community Service Commission; Michigan Nonprofit Forum, and Michigan K-12 Service Learning Center. �-52Ted Taylor Roast & Toast - Detroit Area Grantmakers On May 11, 1993, Ted Taylor was "surprised" with barbs and accolades from CMF friends at the regular meeting of the Detroit Area Grantmakers. Guest speaker was Brian O'Connell, President, Independent Sector, a long-time friend of Ted's. Ted will continue as Chairman of the Kresge Foundation, but he and Betsy are making their primary residents in Williamstown, Mass. John Marshall has succeeded Ted as CEO of The Kresge Foundation. Other news - Kay Hunt will succeed Glenn Kossick as Chair of the Detroit Area Grantmakers, staffed by Sandra Katt. - Planning is underway for the 1993-94 Kent County Donor's Forum series, chaired by Diana Sieger, Grand Rapids Foundation, and staffed by Sandra Katt. - Council on Foundations' Board of Directors meet in Battle Creek, June 27-29, 1993. You will receive an invitation to attend Monday evening's picnic, June 28, at the Kellogg Biological Station - I addressed the June 3, 1993 Annual Meeting of the Rochester (New York) Area Grantmakers Meeting on the subject of "Collaboration."

DAJ/jmc:1203M �-53- Council of Michigan Foundations Principles and Practices for Effective Grantmaking Adopted by the CMF Board of Trustees _ _ _ _ _ __ 1. Whatever the nature of the entity engaged in private grannnaking, and whatever its interests, it should seek to establish a set of basic policies that define the program interests and the fundamental objective to be served. 2. An identifiable board, committee or other decision-making body should have clear responsibility for determining those policies and procedures, causing them to be implemented, and reviewing and revising them from time to time. 3. The processes for receiving, examining and deciding on grant applications should be established on a clear and logical basis and should be followed in a manner consistent with the organization's policies and purposes. 4. Responsive grannnakers recognize that accountability extends beyond the narrow requirements of the law. Grannnakers should establish and carry out policies that recognize these multiple obligations for accountability: to the charter provisions by which their founders defmed certain basic expectations; to those charitable institutions they serve; to the general public; to the Internal Revenue Service; and to certain state government agencies. 5. Open communications with the public and with grantseekers about the policies and procedures that are followed in grantmaking is in the interest of all coocerned and is important if the grantmaking process is to function well, and if the trust in the responsibility and accountability of grantmakers is to be maintained. A brief written statement about policies, program interests, and grantmaking practices, geographic and policy restrictions and preferred ways of receiving applications is recommended. Prompt acknowledgment of the receipt of any serious application is important. Grantseekers whose programs and proposals fall outside the interests of the grantmakers should be told this immediately, and those whose proposals are still under consideration should be informed, insofar as is possible, of the steps and timing that will be taken in reaching the final decision. 6. Beyond the filing of forms required by government, grantmakers should consider possible ways of informing the public concerning their stewardship through publication and distribution of periodic reports, preferably annual reports, possibly supplemented by newsletters, reports to The Foundation Center, and the use of other communications channels. 7. The preservation and enhancement of an essential community of interest between the grantor and the grantee requires that their relationship be based on mutual respect, candor and understanding, with each investing the necessary time and attention to define clearly the purposes of the grant, the expectations as to reports related to financial and other matters, and the provisions for evaluating and publicizing projects. Many grantmakers, going beyond the providing of money, help grantees through such other means as assisting in the sharpening of the objectives, monitoring the performance, evaluating the outcome, and encouraging early planning for future stages. �-54- 8. It is important that grantmakers be alert and responsive to changing conditions in society and to the changing needs and merits of particular grantseeking organizations. Responses to needs and social conditions may well be detennined by independent inquiries, not merely by reactions to requests submitted by grantseekers. In response to new challenges, grantmakers are helpful if they use the special knowledge, experience and insight of individuals beyond those persons, families or corporations from which the fund originally came. Some grantmakers find it useful to secure ideas and comments from a variety of consultants and advisory panels, as well as diversified staff and board members. In view of the historic underrepresentation of minorities and women in supervisory and policy positions, particular attention should be given to finding ways to draw them into the decisionmaking processes. 9. 10. From time to time, all grantmaking organizations should review their program interests, basic policies, and board and staff composition, and assess the overall results of their grantmaking. Beyond the legal requirements that forbid staff, board members and their families from profiting financially from any philanthropic grant, it is important that grantmakers weigh carefully all circumstances in which there exists the possibility of accusations of self-interest. In particular, staff and board members should disclose to the governing body the nature of their personal or family affiliation or involvement with any organizations for which a grant is considered, even though such affiliation may not give rise to any pecuniary conflict of interest. 11. Grantmakers should maintain interaction with others in the field of philanthropy including such bodies as regional associations of grantmakers, The Foundation Center, the Council on Foundations, and various local, regional, and national independent sector organizations. They should bear in mind that they share with others responsibility for strengthening the effectiveness of the many private initiatives to serve the needs and interests of the public and for enhancing general understanding and support of such private initiatives within the community and the nation. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Background Statement: You will recall that the Board approved the establishment of supporting organization vehicles for both the Community Foundation Youth Project and the Michigan AIDS Fund at its March, 1993 meeting. At that time, the Board delegated it's Chair, Leonard W. Smith, and it's President, Dorothy A. Johnson, the responsibility of developing the details of implementing the supporting organization concept. Since that time, Mr. Smith and Mrs. Johnson met with representatives from both projects to discuss possible organizational structures and consider various organizational concerns. After extensive review by the various parties concerned and legal counsel, the Executive Committee approved the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws for both supporting organizations at its September 27, 1993 meeting. The Executive Committee now recommends the individuals on the enclosed lists for election to the Board of Trustees of those respective organizations. 441I �COUNCIL OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS Community Foundation Youth Project Board of Trustees 1993-94 John E.

Noland, Chair Re: Community Foundation Committee Report Computer Project The Community Foundation Committee met April 15, 1993 in Lansing, Michigan and discussed a number of important opportunities. The primary focus of the committee meeting was a detailed discussion of the computer project. This two year planning effort has resulted in a collaborative computerization effort which is the first of its kind in the country. The project will result in integrated computerization available to every community foundation in the State of Michigan. The foundations will also be connected with each other and CMF by modem, greatly facilitating communication. The project includes a voluntary effort to standardize financial reporting and grant classification so the community foundations will have statewide comparable data for management. Seven community foundations have led this effort: the Battle Creek Community Foundation, the Community Foundation of Greater Flint, The Fremont Area Foundation, The Grand Rapids Foundation, the Muskegon County Community Foundation, and the Community Foundation for Southeastern Michigan. NPO Solutions of Connecticut was approved as the software vendor. The committee also worked out the details of allocating expenses between the seven venture foundations, developing operating principles for future allocation of costs and the decision-making process for future enhancements. A draft contract was approved. The committee developed the outline for a grant request to the W.K. Kellogg Foundation. This request for assistance includes the statewide computerization, assistance in covering the direct costs for affiliated relationships in the early years, and additional support for the youth project. The grant request is for $2.6 million. The community foundations will be contributing another $1.6 million toward the computerization effort. Joint Venture - Environment The Committee then turned to other opportunities including the development of a joint venture related to the environment. The Great Lakes Protection Fund of Chicago is convening a meeting of the community foundations serving the Great Lakes Basin for a Wingspread Conference in February. This will be the first step of a collaborative venture on the environment. Michigan community foundations are considered key to this effort and CMF is involved in the project's development. Other issues included a discussion of the Michigan Tax Credit, the development of the community foundations in the State, the progress of the youth project and the relationship between community foundations and financial institutions which are providing donor advised contribution programs. 0137P/63 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Lindow, Chair Re: Corporate Giving Committee Report The CMF Corporate Giving Program continues to serve our 80 corporate members with specialized services. Some recent developments include the following: New Members Join Committee: New corporate members to join the Corporate Giving Committee include: Merri Jo Bales, Consumers Power Company; Anne DeBoer, Dow Corning Foundation; Colette Douglas, Comerica Incorporated; Kay Hunt, Detroit Edison; Colleen Keast, Whirlpool Foundation, Rex K. Nelson, The Pistons-Palace Foundation; and Mark Trierweiler, AT&T. Special Corporate Sessions Developed for Annual Conference: Two key sessions for corporate grantmakers at the 21st Annual Conference include (1) "Mapping the Strategic Process" led by Colleen D. Keast, Executive Director, Whirlpool Foundation, and (2) "Incorporating Diversity Into Corporate Giving" with key panelists from Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan, Coca-Cola in Atlanta, GA, and Anheuser-Busch in St. Louis, MO. RAG Initiative/Corporate Services: The Regional Initiative, of the Council on Foundations, has asked to meet with Michigan corporate grantmakers in an effort to obtain firsthand information on the needs of corporate grantmakers. The meeting will take place during the Annual Conference and will focus on the major challenges facing corporate contributions managers, and specific information/education/training programs and services that would be useful to the field, especially small to medium size giving programs. Additionally, the Corporate Giving Committee is working on the following issues: Midwest Regional Grantmaker Workshop It was suggested that CMF serve as the convening body to create a multi-state Midwest Regional Corporate Grantmaker Workshop to be held in 1994. The purpose of this event would be to provide increased interaction among regional corporations, especially among industries sharing common challenges such as manufacturing, banking, energy utilities and others. �This meeting would replace the previous corporate grantmaker workshop created for Michigan business. It was suggested that CMF work with RAG's in Chicago, Indiana and Ohio in developing this concept. Communications Technology There is great interest in the development of CMF-member network linked by high-tech communications technology. While there was insufficient information to discuss this subject in depth, committee members agreed that it would be useful to them to have a system in place which expedited their ability to share information in a timely manner. "Second-tier" Corporations The committee continues to be concerned over the ability of CMF and the larger business community to involve "second-tier" corporations in effective corporate giving. They are interested in developing strategies and programs to attract and involve those businesses currently not "in the loop". Mass Media The committee praised CMF's efforts in developing an effective relationship with Crain's Detroit Business yet wondered why other regional media have not established an interest in the "corporate philanthropy beat". They requested that we continue to work with CDB editor Mary Kramer in the development of story ideas and materials for that publication and to seek out methods for furthering this topic with the Detroit News and Detroit Free Press, among others. Since the October 4th meeting, Mary Kramer has called to set with CMF for November 26th to discuss the possibility of the covering philanthropy on a monthly basis. The meeting is to and financial perameters which would make this attractive to well as to the corporate community. up an appointment local media discuss strategy our Members as CMF Corporate Newsletter Members stated that the newsletter served a valuable role for them in effective internal communication to their executives. It assists them in educating executives as to the appropriate role of corporate giving programs as well as enabling them to display their programs to a broader corporate audience. Consultation Services The committee agreed that the consultation services offered to CMF members and other corporations is a valuable role for CMF. They see CMF as the provider-of-choice for these services and are comfortable and confident of the quality of service provided. They look to CMF for assistance that ranges from traditional program management information to support services for corporate programs generated by their giving. They want services provided as needed, on-demand, for short- or long-term projects. �CMF Annual Conference There was consideration of ways in which the annual conference can furthe r meet CMF corporate member needs. Suggestions include the addition of a "corporate track" to run throughout the conference (rather than segregating corporate-focused activities to one day) to the addition of a corporate "breakfast table" for colleagues to gather and share information on a casual basis. These ideas will be revisited in planning for the 1994 annual conference. 4481 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

We recognize the Board's desire for a revised format including period budget comparisons. We expect to present a revised reporting format after our new computer system is functional and management reporting needs are identified and reports are designed to be responsive to these needs. Revenues As of September 30, 1993 (6 months) our income is up approximately $400,000 over last year. We have reached 801 of our income goal through this six-month period compared to 821 last year. Pledged membership contributions for this year stand at $88,200. The budget figures shown include approved budget amendments for the CMF core operation computer hardware and software ($73,000) and the additional $25,000 from the Frey Foundation for the Escheats Project. Corporate Initiative fund raising is beginning as we work towards incorporating the Corporate Initiative into the general operating fund. Expenses Through our mid-point in the year, we have incurred 431 of our budgeted costs. Budgeted expenses have been adjusted to reflect approved Board amendments for the computer system for general operations ($73,000) and an increase for the Financial Director ($12,000). Meeting and travel expenses included in general operations incorporate the costs of all Trustee and Committee meetings, member service calls and professional training for the staff. Cost reductions are in place; however, actual meeting and travel expenses may exceed our annual budget by 101. Community Foundation expenses and Michigan AIDS Fund expenses are significantly higher than last year primarily due to the timing of when grants are paid to recipients. In summary, management foresees no unusual problems or circumstances. llO I �COUNCIL OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS STATEMENTS OF ACTlVITY AND CHANGES IN FUND BALANCE For The ~ 411183 • Q/3IW3 Genenll ()pelwtiona Budget Actulol s REVENUES Membership Contributions Addilionel Contributions "-Income Public:Miona Snlllll~ Annual c:onte..nc:e Ho.t Committe DnetoryS.Ies Sf*;ial Projects •nd Misc.

See the attached statement for details. CMF Members should be proud of what they have achieved working together and with other regional associations, the Council on Foundations and Independent Sector. Resolutions The CMF Government Relations Committee recommends the CMF Board approve the following resolutions: I. RESOLVED: that the Council of Michigan Foundations support composite Bill H.R. 2481. BACKGROUND STATEMENT: This bill, supported by the Council on Foundations, would amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to make permanent the section rules pertaining to gifts of publicly-traded stock to private foundations; clarify procedures for private foundation grants to foreign organizations and change the due date for first quarter estimated tax payments by private foundations. II. RESOLVED: that the Council of Michigan Foundations support Independent Sector's position on interim sanctions for public charities. BACKGROUND STATEMENT: Rep. J.J. Pickle (D-TX) as chairman of the Oversight Subcommittee (of the House Ways and Means Committee), is holding hearings to examine certain areas of abuse by public charities. The first two hearing were held June 15 and August 2. More will be scheduled, but no dates have been set. Because neither private nor community foundations have been targeted by the Subcommittee, the Council on Foundations has generally kept a low profile regarding the hearings. Nevertheless, they have followed them very closely, and have offered advice and assistance in interpreting current practice. CMF has not been involved. �NEED FOR INTERIM SANCTIONS: Thus far, one of the major issues emerging from the hearings is the concern on the part of Mr. Pickle and the Subcommittee that IRS does not have appropriate penalties or sanctions to apply to public charities when violations occur. The only sanction now available is revocation of Section 50l(c)(3) status. Revocation frequently hurts innocent parties (staff lose jobs, clients are not served) while the main violators get off free. This same lack of interim sanctions (something less than revocation) was true in the 1960's leading up the Tax Reform Act of 1969 when a whole series of penalty taxes were added to the tax code for private foundations. The Subcommittee is taking a close look at the interim sanction approach now in place for private foundations to determine whether a similar version makes sense for public charities. POSSIBLE PROPOSAL FOR INTERIM SANCTIONS: It is a virtual certainty that some form of interim sanctions will be recommended by the Subcommittee soon. Moreover, Rep. Pickle is likely to introduce legislation proposing such an addition to the tax code. As some of you may know, Independent Sector has communicated with the Subcommittee in support of the general notion of limited interim sanctions. They have also made clear that support for interim sanctions is linked directly to their strong opposition to any artificial caps on compensation (another issue of concern to Mr. Pickle). Independent Sector Position: III. Attached RESOLVED: that the Council of Michigan Foundations support House Bill 4661, 4660 and 4662 which would exempt all Section 50l(c)(3) organizations from sales tax on purchases. Accordingly, foundations would no longer be required to present evidence to satisfy the Department of Treasury that they are engaging in direct charitable activities, as now often is the case. BACKGROUND STATEMENT: Some CMF Members have reported being denied tax exemption status either when they are originally organized or on a renewal. On appeal they have been granted tax status. These bills would clarify the situation. IV. OTHER BUSINESS The Government Relations Committee is considering a Visitation Day February 1/2, 1994. 0380H Washin~ton �INDEPENDENT SECTOR INDEPENDENT SECTOR POSmON ON POSSIBLE LEGISLATION RELATED TO PERFORMANCE AND ACCOUNTABILITY OF PUBUC CHARmES INDEPENDENT SECTOR is a nonprofit coalition of over 850 corporate, foundation and voluntary organization Members with national interest in voluntary action and philanthropy. Since we . were founded in 1980 we have supported openness, accountability and accessibility as basic to nonprofit behavior. Our support for full disclosure by public charities is outlined in our publication "Disclosure of Information by Tax Exempt Organizations: It's the Law. • Our work to encourage ethical behavior by public charities is also demonstrated by our publication "Ethics and the Nation's Voluntary and Philanthropic Community." IS has produced 10 other publications that relate to compliance and ethical issues covering compensation, guidelines for giving, volunteer governance of public charities, and similar matters. Recent congressional hearings on public charities and heightened media interest have made clear that even more needs to be done to achieve accountability and openness. We have studied the proceedings from the Congressional Oversight Subcommittee hearings on public charities and have consulted with many representatives of nonprofit organizations. It is clear that the overwhelming majority of public charities are scrupulously honest and are readily complying with disclosure requirements. Unfortunately, there are some groups which resist disclosure and some which simply don't obey the law. IS is committed to working with Treasury, the IRS and Congress to assure that public charities live up to the public trust expected of them and which their tax exempt status requires of them. Our meetings and discussions indicate agreement, with slight clarification, on most of the proposals for possible legislation proposed at the June 15, 1993 House Ways and Means Oversight Subcommittee hearing. We are supportive of additional public access to IRS form 990 and 990 PF, improved reporting on these forms, intermediate sanctions, and other proposals. Although there may be differences in emphasis among our Members and some who disagree with specific recommendations, the recommendations that follow do represent a consensus among our Members. o Organizations which disobey the law, including failure to provide required information on IRS form 990, should be appropriately penalized and reported. o IS supports establishing intermediate sanctions, such as perhaps a 5% excise tax applicable to organizations and individuals, for acts of inurement or private benefit, provided that clear and reasonable definitions are developed for those acts. o IS supports rr.ailing the 990 and 990 PF and complete applications for tax exempt status within 30 days after any written request accompanied by a check for copying and mailing costs. Such a requirement should include language protecting a charity or foundation from an organized effort to harass by generating a large and unreasonable number of write-in requests for the forms. A NATIONAL FORUM TO ENCOURAGE GIVING, VOLUNTEERING AND NOT • FOR • PROFIT INITIATIVE ·1828 L Street, N.W. • Washington, D.C. 20036 • (202) 223-8100 FAX: (202) 457-0609 ~!!! * �o The law should require the 990 and 990 PF to be designed to be more helpful to the public, grant seekers, and organizations which file, as well as tc the IRS. o IRS should be required by law to do a thorough review of a sampling of 990 and 99Q-PF submissions every five years and to report t~ Congress and the public on public charity and private foundation compliance with reponing requirements, comparing currem compliance with past performance. o IS supports a requirement that· the 990 form include a report of payment of tax penalties; such as excessive compensation, prohibited political activity, excessive lobbying and unreported unrelated business income. o IS supports the present requirement that compensation be reported fully on the form 990. o IS opposes an IRS imposed cap on compensation as unworkable and unrealistic. However, we agree that compensation must be reported fully on the form 990 and that boards must understand their responsibility to set compensation at reasonable and legally defensible levels which they can and will defend with funders and the public. o IS supports requiring that an organization's board chairperson or other responsible trustee sign the organization's 990 form. Consideration should be given to requiring the appropriate staff person to provide written certification as to the accuracy of the document. o IRS should be permitted to make a public announcement both when a nonprofit' tax exemption is revoked and when the IRS imposes intermediate sanctions. IS supports this provision for both revocation as well as intermediate sanctions. Penalized individuals' names should also be made public. o IS agrees that board members and officers of 501 (c)(3)'s should not be granted loans by the organization.

Box 599 / Grand Haven, MI 49417/ (616) 842-7080 / FAX (616) 842-1760 COUNCIL OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS Legislative Statement November, 1992 Philanthropy in America Foundation and corporate giving has long been a unique part of American society. In 1991 , foundations and corporations donated more than $13.8 billion for charitable causes and services including the arts, United Way, colleges and universities, libraries, and programs for the elderly and the needy. Today, foundations and corporations are being challenged to increase their support and charitable donations in the face of major cutbacks by local, state, and federal governments. In the face of this challenge, it is apparent that much can and should be done to encourage the creation and growth of new foundations and corporate giving programs. Unfortunately the 1969 Tax Act, while introducing a number of reforms, also erected a number of major barriers to foundation philanthropy. These include provisions that serve as disincentives for the creation of new foundati on , as well as provisions that discourage charitable donations to foundations. Mter more than 22 years of experience, it is also apparent that a number of Internal Revenue Service Code regulations, based on the 1969 Tax Act, have proven to be unnecessarily restrictive on the grantmaking effectiveness of Michigan's more than 1,100 foundations, as well as the more than 31 ,000 other foundati ons in communities across the United States. If foundations and corporations are to expand their support of important social needs and programs, the Council of Michigan Foundations must work actively to inform the general public, as well as state and federal legislators and other policymakers, on these important issues. It must seek support for legislative changes that encourage the role and effectiveness of foundation and corporate philanthropy. That is the purpose of the following Council of Michigan Foundations ' Government Relations Program. Background: CMF Government Relations Program In 1977, the Council of Michigan Foundations' (CMF) Members directed the Board of Tru tees to develop a public information program that would support and encourage Michigan foundation philanthropy. This program was to include a plan to communicate with public policymakers. A Conference Mandate (Government Relations) Committee was established to implement the program. Since then, the Government Relations Committee has surveyed CMF Members on their legislative interests and priorities on a timely basis. In 1980, CMF also launched a "Developing Good Will Program" to assist in this public information effort. CMF has worked with Member foundations, the Council on Foundations, and other regional associations of grantmakers to enhance the understanding of public policymakers about foundation philanthropy and to bring about appropriate legislative changes in laws and regulations. -1- �As a result of these efforts by CMF and others, the mandatory payout requirement has been lowered by Congress to a flat five percent of foundation assets, the excise tax on foundations has been reduced, the .65 limit on grant administrative expenses has terminated, fair regulations on lobbying have been issued, and at the state level a tax credit for individual and corporate contributions to community foundations. The 1984 Tax Bill relaxed limitations on gifts to private foundations. The CMF Board of Trustees approved the initial Legislative Statement on March 1, 1979. Revised statements were approved September 19, 1980; January 27, 1982; May 10, 1983; June 14, 1985; April22, 1988; and February 25, 1992. A seventh revision is being recommended to the Board of Trustees, November 4, 1992. National Legislative Issues 1. Goal: Support the continuation and expansion of tax incentives for the creation of new foundations and gifts to existing foundations. 2. Goal: Make permanent the full deductibility of publicly-traded stock given to private foundations. Explanation: The Tax Reform Act of 1984 changed the law to permit living donors to make gifts of publicly-traded stock to private foundations and be able to deduct the full fair market value. Unfortunately, the change expires at the end of 1994. 3. Goal: Change the limitation on gifts to a private foundation from 20 percent to 50 percent. Explanation: Under existing law, the amount deductible by an individual taxpayer for contributions to private non-operating foundations is computed as a percentage of the donor's contribution base (in most cases, his or her adjusted gross income). An individual may deduct only 20 percent of the gifts of appreciated property or 30 percent of gifts of cash. On the other hand, an individual taxpayer can deduct up to 50 percent of his contribution base for gifts to public charities. 4. Goal: Increase the deduction allowed a taxpayer for a gift to a private foundation of certain capital gain property. Explanation: Under existing law, individual taxpayers may deduct the full fair market value of a gift of appreciated property in the form of publicly-traded stock if the gift is less than 10% of the outstanding stock of the company. However, in other cases, such as privately-held stock, the amount of the deduction is limited to the donor's cost or basis in the stock if the gift is to a private non-operating foundation. The same gift to a public charity entitles the taxpayer to a full fair market value deduction. -2- �5. Goal: Amend the law to return to the pre-1987 status whereby the gain portion of gifts of appreciated property is not sub· e alternative minimum tax reduction. Explanation: Beginning in 19 Y\\tt>\k~vho is subject to the alternative minimum tax may deduct only the cost of such a <=-r;•n~ ain portion of such a gift is not deductible. This change primarily affects charities, com nity foundations and pass-through foundations who frequently receive such gifts. 6. Goal: Pursue legislation which would allow the establishment of a common fund for private and community foundations. Explanation: Currently, foundations are not allowed by law to pool their assets. Ideally, private and community foundations could have an investment vehicle which would allow for pooling with potentially greater investment returns and administrative efficiencies. Such a fund is allowed for public charities. 7. Goal: Maintain the private foundation payout rate at not more than 5 percent to protect the real value of foundations' grantmaking capability. Explanation: In order to preserve the "real" grantmaking capacity of a private foundation, it is important that inflation be taken into consideration. A portion of the annual return should be returned to principal. 8. Goal: Reduce excise tax to flat 1 percent instead of the present complicated formula which permits, in some cases, a reduction from 2 to 1 percent. Explanation: The 1984 Tax Act allows the excise tax on investment income to be reduced from 2 to 1 percent if a foundation's payout for the year in question equals or exceeds an amount equal to the year's assets, times the average payout percentage for the previous five years, plus 1 percent of the foundation's net investment income. 9. Goal: Support relaxation of the public-support test for community foundations. Explanation: Community foundations must raise new money each year to meet the Internal Revenue Services' (IRS) 10 percent public support test. In some instances, raising 10 percent in additional funds in a given year may not be possible, even though the community foundation is broadly representative of the public interest. . 10. Goal: Prevent further efforts to reduce the usefulness of the charitable deduction and support efforts to ensure that the 3 percent floor expires after five years or sooner. Explanation: In 1990, after initially considering a cap on all itemized deductions, the Congress approved a 3 percent floor on deductions. This floor expires at the end of 1995. -3- �11. Goal: Establish a small grant rule, which would allow grants for charitable purposes of less than $25,000 to be free of "expenditure responsibility." Explanation: Currently, if a private foundation makes a grant for a charitable purpose to an organization without IRS tax classification as a public charity, the foundation must assume "expenditure responsibility." This is a costly and time-consuming function for private foundations, and most will not undertake the responsibility. Others are discouraged about the amount of paperwork necessary for a grant of less than $25,000. 12. Goal: Limit lineal descendants who are "disqualified persons" at the level of grandchildren. Explanation: In 1984, the law was amended to limit "disqualified persons" to substantial contributors to a foundation and their children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren and their spouses. The amendment further provided that substantial contributors will no longer be considered "disqualified persons" if, over a ten-year period, they make no further contributions to the foundation and do not manage it, and their total contributions are insignificant in light of substantial growth in foundation assets. However, there is still no logical rationale-or examples of abuse-to justify the inclusion of lineal descendants beyond the level of grandchildren. 13. Goal: Exclude from the formula used to compute the excise tax on private foundation net investment income any capital gain realized in the fiscal year in question. 14. Goal: Secure passage of legislation providing a charitable deduction for nonitemizers with a $100 floor. Explanation: Most taxpayers no longer flle the long tax form which permits itemized deductions: instead they file the short form which allows only a standard deduction. 15. Goal: Modify the law to permit the "out of corpus" requirement to be met by a foreign grantee if sufficient documentation is provided showing that the full amount of the grant was spent for the specified purposes within 12 months after the year the grant was made. Explanation: When making grants to some foreign charities, private foundations are required to treat them as private foundations. Any grant from a private foundation to another private founda tion requires that the amount granted "flow through" the grantee and out as qualifying distributions that are made "out of corpus" by the end of the following year. The purpose for this rule is to prevent a foundation from avoiding the payout rule by having one private foundation give to another who then simply adds the grant to its endowment (corpus), with charitable grantees receiving no benefit. In the foreign grant context, the grantee rarely has any endowment and totally misunderstands the concept of "out of corpus." -4- �16. Goal: Change the due date of the first estimated tax payment so that it coincides with the due date of the Form 990-PF. Explanation: Private foundations now must pay estimated taxes on their investment income in quarterly payments. However, the fust payment each year is due three and a half months after the tax year while the tax return is not due until a month later. 17. Goal: Change the Unrelated Business Income Tax application to private foundation real estate investments. National Regulatory Issues 1. Goal: Revise regulations that preserve the principle of full deductibility from U.S. source income for corporate gifts to U.S . charities operating in the United States and provide rules for securing such deductions that are reasonable and easy to administer. Explanation: The IRS announced the Service's intention of issuing regulations that would require charitable gifts and grants by multinational corporations to be allocated between U.S. and non-U .S. sources for purposes of charitable deductions. 2. Goal: Return to the old rule for grants by U.S. foundations to nonresident aliens, where such payments are taxable depending on the place where the research or study takes place. Explanation: In 1989, Treasury published Revenue Ruling 89-67 which reversed a long-standing position involving payments to nonresident aliens for scholarships, fellowships , prizes and awards. The old rule said that the source of such payments-for tax purposes-was determined according to where the research or study activities take place. Problems developed when the 1986 Tax Reform Act changed the rules for scholarships, fellowships, etc., so that such payments were taxable except for tuition and related fees. Thus, many foreign students in the U.S. became subject to U.S. tax. The universities sought relief. The 1989 ruling reversed the old rule by stating that the source of the payment-for tax purposes-shall now be determined according to the residence of the payer. As a result, such payments by U.S. foundations to nonresident aliens working or studying outside the U.S. became subject to 30 percent withholding. 3. Goal: Obtain a ruling which approv affidavit format that may be comndations may rely on such documentapleted by non-U.S. grantees:..&.0nm1ll\\1111WJU tion for grantmaking, thus a need for individual legal opinions for every grant to the same charity. -5- �Explanation: Presently private foundation grants to non-U.S. charities require obtaining either a written legal opinion or an affidavit from the grantee that establishes sufficiently that the grantee is the equivalent of a U.S. charity. The efforts to obtain such documentation are often time-consuming, complicated and expensive. The Council has initiated efforts to develop a more accessible process. 4. Goal: Obtain a Treasury ruling stating that no part of the premiums paid for directors and officers liability insurance need be treated as compensation for any charitable organization. Explanation: Existing rulings indicate that some small portion of the premiums paid for directors and officers liability insurance for private foundations must be treated as compensation to those covered to avoid self-dealing. 5. Goal: Permit community foundations to administer pooled income funds with the remainder interest at the donor's death going to the local charity either by a) establishing a designated fund, or 2) turning the corpus directly over to the local charity designated by the donor at the time of the contribution of the fund. Explanation: A pooled income fund is a form of deferred giving whereby a living donor may contribute assets to the fund and receive income payments during his or her lifetime. The donor is eligible for a limited charitable deduction in the year of the gift and at the donor's death the charity receives title to the endowment. By pooling such contributions, a charity can more efficiently administer this type of program. Current law, however, requires that a pooled income fund be "maintained" by the organization to which the remainder interest is contributed. State Legislative Issues 1. Goal: Support tax incentives for contributions to charitable organizations. Explanation: Individuals are often relu c olunteers on behalf of charitable organizations for fear that they will be sued foC\a missions committed in furtherance of these duties. The prospect of personal liability for acts performed on the behalf of charity can be a serious deterrent to the spirit of volunteerism. Michigan law currently permits nonprofit corporations to limit the liability of their volunteer directors . This proposal would also provide protection to volunteer officers and the volunteer "work force" behind the organization. -6- �3. Goal: Revise calculation to de ~ Explanation: Michigan tax er of assets at death under Act. No. 188 of the Public Acts of 1899. The tax is inequitab ficient and encourages Michigan residents to move their primary residence out of state. Consequently, the state is losing resources and local leadership. It is recommended that Michigan follow the practices of twenty-nine other states by converting its inheritance tax to a pickup only tax, which means the only state tax on death transfers equals the federal credit for state death taxes paid. CMF Activity 1. Regularly communicate with elected officials of federal, state, and local levels about foundation activities and concerns. 2. Encourage Member foundations to report grants and activities to government officials. 3. Encourage Members in each Michigan Congressional District to meet as a group with their legislator when the legislator is in District to discuss the local contribution of community and private foundations and corporate giving. 4. Support public reporting for foundations, beyond the reports required by law, and provide technical assistance for those foundations seeking to print an annual report or guidelines. Assist in distribution efforts. 5. Expand efforts to explain foundations and their problems to the grantee organizations and the general public. 6. Encourage meetings with local editorial boards and the media about foundation activities and concerns. 7. Develop state legislative network by House and Senate districts and enhance communication with legislative and key committee leadership. 8. Continue discussions with Michigan Attorney General's Office regarding community and private foundation concerns. 9. Encourage meetings with Executive Branch of state government. 10. Sponsor biennial seminars for legislators, department chiefs and their staffs. -7- � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Background Statement: The enclosed Project Criteria are intended to apply to any new grantmaking project proposals which come before CMF's Board of Trustees. You will recall that these criteria were first presented to the Board at your March, 1993 meeting, and were referred back for redrafting to reflect a differentiation between projects which make grants directly to CMF members and projects which make grants to non-members. 397I �COUNCIL OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS SUPPORTING ORGANIZATION GRANTMAKING PROJECT CRITERIA CMF Purpose and Mission 1. The project will support and further the purposes and mission of CMF. 2. The project is not opposed by, or will not adversely affect a significant number of CMF members. 3. The project will not adversely affect CMF's image or CMF in accomplishing the tasks described in its Plan of Work. Benefit and Service to Members 1. The project establishes a grantmaking program to which a sufficient number of CMF members may apply. 2. If not a program which makes grants to CMF members, the project provides a service to a sufficient number of CMF members which is deemed to be helpful to them for their grantmaking or educational purposes. 3. The project is for a specific time period and, if the project involves a direct benefit to non-members or solicitation of non-members, the project will be examined by an appropriate committee of the CMF Board and then by the full Board at least every three years to determine whether the project continues to meet the criteria herein and has sufficient merit to continue as a supporting organization of CMF. Governance Standards 1. The project will adhere to CMF's Code of Ethics and Conflict of Interest policies, and applicable model Principles and Practices of Effective Grantmaking. Solicitation of Funds 1. Each project will be responsible for solicitation of its own funds. 2. Solicitation will be by the Supporting Organization and will not be identified with CMF other than as may be necessary to describe the legal and organizational relationship. �Merit of Project 1. The project has great merit and will improve the well-being of the residents of Michigan. 2. There is added value to doing the project on a collaborative basis. 3. There is not another entity or organization able and willing to do the project. 4. The project will be broadly applicable within Michigan. Operational Considerations 1. CMF members have been involved in the development of the project. 2. The project will not involve funding from CMF. 3. CMF administrative costs associated with the project will be fully recovered. 4. The project will not be a burden to CMF staff. 5. A detailed proposal meeting the criteria herein will be considered and approved by an appropriate committee of the CMF Board and then by the full Board. 6. Projects intended to last more than one year will be incorporated into a separate "supporting organization" to CMF. The Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the supporting organization will be approved by an appropriate committee of the CMF Board and then by the full Board unless there are unusual circumstances which will be handled at the discretion of the Board.

Richmond Dorothy A. Johnson Margaret A. (Ranny) Riecker Leonard W. Smith Re: Progress Report August 26, 1993 - Committee Meeting Committee members met Thursday, August 26, 1993 at 9:30 a.m. at the W.K. Kellogg Foundation for an update on the progress which has been made regarding education in philanthropy and volunteerism in Michigan since the inclusion of the interests of the Committee into CMF's core program in September, 1990. Excellent reports were presented by eleven guests on academic, volunteer, youth, and research programs from throughout Michigan which have been established in the past five years. Findings Following the presentations, committee members met to discuss the findings and consider suggestions for the project's future. It was noted that several helpful new organizations have been established, including a university Center on Philanthropy in Michigan. It was decided that it would be useful for the Improving Philanthropy Committee to continue its efforts to encourage the involvement of educational institutions in supporting the basic issues of democracy through offering programs and curriculum about volunteerism and philanthropy, to continue its work with state and national support groups which seek to improve management capabilities within the nonprofit sector, and to continue its efforts to inspire others to join in this support. It was recognized that a long-term view is necessitated to accomplish these goals, and that CMF's formal cor.~ittee may not need to meet more than approximately once every two years to review progress made. Recommendations The Committee established a set of measurable objectives by agreeing to ask CMF staff to: 1. Identify unfinished business of the Committee by conducting a survey of educational institutions to identify current program offerings. �2. Publish a useful and informative follow-up report to funders of the findings of this survey, including a rationale for what is yet needed. 3. Explore the feasibility of establishing a Michigan Research Fund, possibly within the Aspen Institute's Nonprofit Sector Research Fund, to encourage faculty attention to these issues by involving academic communities in research activities. Research topics might include: a. Conducting an audit of Michigan's nonprofit sector to identify program gaps and overlap. b. Conducting a nonprofit infrastructure study to identify elements which need to be in place to train and support the development of local and statewide nonprofit leaders including inservice training opportunities for key corporate employees. c. Identify methods and content by which K-12 text books could reflect the nonprofit sector. d. Identify strategies to train teachers during their educational experience to utilize community service-learning techniques. 4. Publish a series of essays in CMF newsletters about testimonials of why funders find the nonprofit sector, as unique democratic institutions, worthy of support. 5. Encourage funders to tie volunteer internships to programs receiving their support. It was noted that a grant from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation for the Improving Philanthropy Committee has a remaining balance for which approval will be sought to support these newly recommended activities. Following Committee discussion, members joined the meeting guests for follow-up luncheon discussions hosted by the W.K. Kellogg Foundation. meeting was adjourned at 2:30 p.m. 357I The � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Calvin Patterson III, Chairman Lucy R. Allen Heidi L. Gilmore Callen Robert S. Collier Jeri L. Fischer Barbara J. Getz Glenn F. Kossick Sharron R. Krieger Karen E. Lake Judy Y. Samelson Re: Information Systems Committee Report The Michigan Foundation Directory After one year of sales of the 8th edition of the Michigan Foundation Directory, 1,942 directories have been sold with revenue totalling $52,325. The "Update" is to be issued early November. A subcommittee of the Committee will be meeting November 23, 1993 to discuss the implementation of the Grants Classification System (26 subject categories) beginning with the 9th edition. It was felt this is a necessary and prudent step, bringing the Michigan Foundation Directory in line with other state and national directories, to continue to meet the needs of grantmakers and grantseekers and make analyses of foundation giving comparable. The Michigan Scene One year of the new format and design of the Michigan Scene has passed under the guidance of Donnell Snite-Mersereau, Editor and with in-house desktopping by Judy M. Carl, CMF Staff Associate. The new look has received rave reviews. In the near future, Ms. Mersereau will be recontacting Members to solicit their opinions about the new content and format to ascertain if the Michigan Scene is meeting their needs and to solicit suggestions. Video Donor History Project Four video tapes have been completed: Gerstacker, Lowe, Miller and Towsley. Robert E. Hencey, Coordinator of the Donor History Project, was thanked for his time and effort in bringing these remarkable and irreplaceable "moments of philanthropic history" to fruition. Dr. Bruce Kresge will be contacted to help tell the story of the Kresge Foundation. Principles and Practices The "Principles and Practices for Effective Grantmaking" adopted by the Council on Foundations was reviewed by the Information Systems Committee. found the statements acceptable and perhaps useful for new grantmakers. It �Services to Nonprofits The Committee reviewed materials from the Donors Forum of Chicago, our sister RAG, on services they provide to grantseekers in the Metro Chicago area. Staff will continue researching and will report back to the committee. Delta College PBS Program The program on foundations is nearly complete and will be aired November 12, 1993 at 10:00 p.m. on WUCM 19 from Delta College to their 8-county viewing area.

The format will include an introduction from Dottie Johnson shot at the CMF office, footage of interviews at the Frey Foundation to illustrate a family foundation, and Focus: HOPE footage to show the scope of projects attainable by pooling resources. The midpoint break will feature a piece on the Midland Rails to Trails project. In the second half of the program, viewers will be invited to call in with their questions for a panel of local funders: Peggy Rowley, Bay Area Community Foundation; Jim Jenkins, Dow Chemical Company; and Norm Brown or Jack Mawdsley from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation are possible responders. The project will be distributed to other Michigan PBS stations in a package to include video inserts, script materials, local contact numbers and videocassette that can be localized. We are pleased this project is nearly in the can and will have a copy available for loan in the CMF Library.

CMF staff attended the presentation which will be made available in bound format as well as video.

Background Statement: The Council of Michigan Foundations is implementing a $35 million Michigan Community Foundation Youth Project challenge grant from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation with support from the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation. This challenge grant began in 1991 and will be completed in 1998 (final challenges are to be awarded by 1996; those foundations applying in the last round wil l have until 1998 to raise the required matching funds.) The challenge builds on a previous $2 million grant which started in 1988 and concluded in 1991. 145P p47 0145P �-2- The grant provides for $33 million to be given to community foundations through grants from CMF. The other $2 million is provided over five years to support of an array of technical assistance which includes scholarships and mini-grants to eMF community foundation members. The challenge requires a $2 local permanently endowed unrestricted or field of interest gift for each $1 of the grant and will result in $99 million of new, permanent assets in the State by the end of the challenge. Each community foundation is eligible to apply for up to $1 million in aggregate. They may apply for a minimum of $10,000 and they may reapply until they reach the maximum available. The application is a strategic plan describing the goals of the foundation and how the grant will help them accomplish their goals. This program has five goals: 1. to extend the reach of community foundation service so that every donor and nonprofit in Michigan has access to a community foundation, 2. to build the permanent unrestricted and field of interest (flexible) assets of the community foundation in order to increase their capacity to meet local needs, 3. to introduce young people to philanthropy through their involvement with the community foundation by completing local youth needs assessments, helping to raise matching grant funds, and serving as permanent advisors to the community foundation for the W.K. Kellogg Foundation youth funds, 4. to make grants from the W.K. Kellogg youth funds which will help to meet local youth needs, and 5. to stimulate youth volunteerism on a statewide basis, once the youth funds have been endowed within the community foundation. A Youth Project Advisory Committee of CMF, chaired by John E. Marshall III, reviews the challenge grant applications. This committee is composed of both CMF Board members and knowledgable outside advisors, including two youth. Four of the following challenge rounds have been approved; the fifth round is proposed to the CMF Board for approval at this time: Fall 1991: $1,595,000 Spring 1992: 5,030,524 Fall 1992: 4,801,500 Spring 1993: 2,526,639 Fall 1993: 2,605,000 Total 0145P $16,588,663 (Six challenges approved all challenges have been met and paid) (Thirteen challenge approved, all challenges have been met and paid) (Fourteen challenges approved, twelve have been met and paid, two outstanding) (Thirteen challenges approved, five have been met and paid, eight outstanding) (Waiting approval at November 1993 Board meeting) �COUNCIL OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS W.K.

The Council of Michigan Foundations also does not condone acts of harassment. Unlawful discrimination or harassment will result in disciplinary action up to and including discharge. Employees who feel that they are being unlawfully discriminated against or unlawfully harassed must notify either the President or the Administrative Director. Complaints will be investigated and appropriate action taken. Adopted April, 1984 Revised November 1993 355I �COUNCIL OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS POLICY OF ACTIVITY SPONSORSHIP The Council of Michigan Foundations will only be recognized as a sponsor or co-sponsor of meetings in which it has played a major organizational role. To qualify for CMF sponsorship, an activity should comply with the following guidelines: The project should further the mission and purposes of CMF. The project should enhance CMF's visibility with relevant audiences. Unless special funds are sought to support the project, resources expended on behalf of the project should be within routine budgetary limits and in proportion to anticipated gains. There should be reasonable assurance that potential risks have been considered and found to be outweighed by potential benefits. There should be reasonable assurance that the project represents the highest standards of quality: Has an identified purpose. Presents organizations and materials of excellence. Includes information of interest to grantmakers. Is not a fundraising effort. CMF's President will approve activities which comply with these guidelines. Adopted November, 1993 369I �COUNCIL OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY The Council of Michigan Foundations (CMF) believes in an ethic of avoiding situations in which a Trustee's or employee's business or personal interests may unduly influence or show favoritism in its decision making process. CMF depends upon a governing board whose members freely give of their time for the benefit of the organization, and recognizes that because of the varied interests and involvements of Board members this service may at certain times result in situations involving real or apparent conflicts of interest. Believing that service should not be rendered impossible solely by reason of these conflicts, this matter shall be handled through full disclosure of any such interests and noninvolvement in any decision wherein a conflict is involved. The foregoing requirements should not be construed as preventing a Trustee or staff member from briefly stating his/her position in the matter, nor from answering pertinent questions of other Board members since his/her knowledge may be of great assistance. Definitions: There are two types of conflict of interest situations: -Where a Trustee, staff member, or relative has a financial interest, or appears to have a financial interest in a decision; and -Where a Trustee, staff member, or relative has an affiliation or other conflicts of loyalties that may lead to or suggest influence in a decision, but no personal financial interest. A. Self-Dealing A self-dealing situation is any transaction or decision from which a Trustee or employee may profit or receive a monetary benefit. It includes prohibitions falling within the Internal Revenue Code (generally Section 4941 IRC) and the Michigan Charitable Trustees Powers Act (Section 14.275 MCLA.) It also includes situations where the Trustee or employee owns 35~ or more of 1) the voting stock or 2) a partnership interest (profits and losses) or 3) a financial or benefit interest in a corporation, partnership or other organization that is involved in a CMF transaction. B. Conflict of Loyality A conflict of interest exists when a person having input into a decision could personally benefit, either directly or indirectly, in the outcome of that decision. A conflict of interest situation is any transaction or decision in which a Trustee or employee finds him or herself in a position of devided or conflicting loyalties. An individual will be in a position of divided or conflicting loyalities in any relationship which may significantly impact or bias the Trustee's or employee's decision making ability. Relevant factors in determining a conflict of interest situation include the duration, strength and intimacy of a personal or business relationship or affiliation, and the functions performed by the individual. The question depends on the circumstances and is often one of proximity and degree. �Disclosure: Trustees and staff members shall annually file a conflict of interest survey with CMF's President disclosing any anticipated or possible conflict situations. This list shall include current Board participation and any for-profit ventures used by CMF in which a Board or staff member retains an interest. Any Trustee or staff member having an anticipated or possible conflict on any matter under consideration by CMF shall disclose that situation and should not vote or use his/her personal influence on the matter. The minutes of the meeting should reflect the abstention from voting.

SIGNATURE Adopted November, 1993 313I DATE �COUNCIL OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENT POLICY Whenever an employee uses his/her personal automobile on behalf of the Council of Michigan Foundations, reimbursement, at a rate currently allowed by the IRS, will be made. Other expenses incurred on behalf of the Council of Michigan Foundations that have a legitimate business purpose will be reimbursed to the employee. An Expense Report form must be completed and submitted to the Administrative Director. Expenses must be itemized and receipts attached. The business purpose of the expense and the destination and number of miles traveled must be submitted. Records submitted for reimbursement shall provide the following information: 1. For air travel - a used ticket stub along with the travel invoice. 2. For Credit Card bills - all charge slips which verify the charges on the bill. 3. For other reimbursements - all expense slips which verify reimbursable expenses. 4. For use of car phones for which CMF is billed - please submit a 10% reimbursement check to CMF for personal use of the car phone. This reimbursement should accompany the phone bill following review and approval for payment. Semi-annually, the Administrative Director will review an expense report of all staff members. The President will review the expense report of the Administrative Director, and the President's Expense Report will be reviewed by the Board Chair and Treasurer, or their Board Member designate. TRUSTEES Trustees shall receive no compensation for their services, nor reimbursement of expenses incurred by them as Trustees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any member of the Board of Trustees may receive reasonable compensation for professional services performed on CMF's behalf in a capacity other than as Trustee and may be reimbursed for expenses incurred in relation to such services, if such services are determined by the Board of Trustees to be reasonably necessary to carry out the purposes of the association.
