Date: May 27, 1997 Memo To: Board ofTrustees From: Richard K Rappleye RE: CMF Core Operations Statement of Activities as ofMarch 31, 1997 Resolved: That the Council of Michigan Foundations' Board of Trustees accept the enclosed Core Operations Internal Statement of Activities as of March 31, 1997o On May 16, 1997, the CMF Audit and Finance Committee reviewed and approved the following reports: March 31, 1997 Internal Financial Report March 31, 1997 Ernst & Young Audit Report Management Letter Comments & Response Because the Ernst & Young consolidated audit report, which we will review later in this report, includes the financial results ofboth ofboth MCFYP and the Michigan AIDS Fund, we have include only the CMF Co:r_e Internal Statement of Activities which compares the 1996-97 actual results to the approved budget for the Board's review_ The CMF Audit & Finance Committee has reviewed and approved the March 31, 1997 internal financial statements for CMF and the support organizations_ During this review it was noted that the only significant variance from budget for the supporting organizations was in the area of grant revenue for MCFYP. Total grant revenue was over budget due to the $3,000,000 received for the KYIP grant which was awarded to MCFYP in August, 1996, and the early distribution of :funds from the W.K Kellogg Foundation for the WKKF ill grant. The boards of the Michigan AIDS Fund and MCFYP will review their respective internal statements at their up coming board meetings, August 7-8, 1997 and June 12, 1997 respectively. i:\dlindber\boardmet\cmf\m060697 c.doc �March 31, 1997 Internal Statement of Activities The following notes highlight the significant variances from budget for the CMF Core Operations. Note 1: Member Contributions With the prior year being the phase in period for our new dues structure and the asset levels of our members of our members increasing during the past year (dues are based on the member's asset level), we experienced an increase in membership revenue received during 1996-97. Note 2: Conference Income & Expenses Revenue and expenses for the CMF Annual Conference are budgeted on a conservative basis. The record attendance that we experienced at the November, 1996 Annual Conference resulted in both revenues and expenses being over budget. Note 3: Computer Expenses associated with consultants, who were hired to work on the computer system and customize some software programs during the past year, resulted in expense being greater than anticipated. Note 4: Publications & Printing The additional costs associated with a new computer program used to publish the 1Oth Edition of the Directory accounted for the majority of the variance from budget. f: \staff\dlindber\boardmet\crnf\m0606 97 c.doc �Council of Michigan Foundations Core Operations Internal Statement of Activities 4-01-96 to 3-31-97 REVENUES Member Contributions Additional Member Contributions Addtl member Mawby Allen Other Grants Conference Income Publications & Library Services Computer Installment/Loan Fees Investment Income Total Revenues Administrative Expenses Salaries & Benefits Occupancy Telephone Equipment Lease & Maintenance Postage Supplies Insurance Equipment & Furniture Computer Association Dues Books & Subscriptions Publications & Printing Professional & Contracted Services Travel Trustee Meetings Training & Seminars Conference & Meeting Mini-Grants General Purpose Total Administrative Grants Mini-Grants General Purpose Challenge Grants Grants Committed Not Paid Affiliation Mini-Grants Computer Grants Computer Loan Other Grants Total Grants Excess Revenues Over Expenditures Beginning Net Assets Fixed Asset & E& Y Adjust.

CMF Internal Statement vs. Ernst & Young Audit Report As you review the enclosed Ernst & Young audit report it should be noted that this report differs from the internal statements that the board is used to seeing in two main areas: For audit statement purposes multi-year grant commitments are recorded as revenue in the year in which the commitment is received per the FASB accounting rules. For the internal statements revenue is recorded in the year the cash is received. For audit statement purposes grant awards are recorded as an expense when the grantee has satisfied all the conditions of the grant. For internal reporting purposes grants are recorded as an expense when the applications are approved by the board. March 31, 1997 Audit Report Enclosed in the back pocket of your board packet is a copy of the Ernst & Young audit report as ofMarch 31, 1997. As you review the report it should be noted that this report is a consolidated financial statement which includes CMF, MCFYP and the Michigan AIDS Fund. Below are a few of the highlights of the enclosed audit report. Combined Balance Sheet Grants and Contributions Receivable The increase from the prior year includes approximately $1,600,000 in special grants outstancling for CMF and the KYIP outstanding grant commitment of$8,125,000 which was awarded during the current year. Accounts Pavable The increase from the prior year is due to invoices for special projects and expenses for meetings which were held near the end of the year. dlindbergfboardmetlm060697 �Balance Sheet - continued Net Assets- Board Designated Investment income earned from the MCFYP project is being placed in the Board Designated Fund to help fund community foundation programming beyond the end of the W.K. Kellogg Foundation funding period. Net Assets- Permanently Restricted The permanently restricted net assets are made up of the William Allen and Russell G. Mawby endowment funds. Combined Statement of Activities & Changes in Net Assets Support and Revenues Grants and Other Contributions The increase from the prior year in the temporarily restricted amount is due to the increase in special projects for CMF and the KYIP grant awarded to MCFYP. Conferences The majority of the increase from the prior year is due to revenue received from the July, 1996 National Youth Conference. Expenses Conferences The increase from the prior year is due to expenses associated with the National Youth Conference. Publications The increase from the prior year is due to 1996-97 being the first year for publishing a monthly newsletter for the Michigan AIDS Fund. Professional Fees The adjustment in fees paid to AJH Limited, who manages the Michigan AIDS Fund, accounts for the increase from the prior year. dlindberglboardmet/m060697 �Combined Statement of Activities Programming/Administrative With the addition of several special projects for CMF during 1996-97, we have seen an increase in the programming expenses from the prior year. Letter of Recommendations The Audit & Finance Committee also reviewed the Letter ofRecommendations along with management's response during the May 16,1997 meeting. It should be noted that nothlng was unusual or out of the ordinary. dlindberg/boardmet/m060697 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Council of Michigan Foundations' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opmwn. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the combined financial position of the Council of Michigan Foundations and supporting organizations at March 31, 1997 and 1996, and the combined results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

During fiscal 1994, the Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project (MCFYP) and the Michigan AIDS Fund (MAF) became supporting organizations of CMF under the provisions of Internal Revenue Code Section 509(a)(3). The accompanying financial statements of CMF have been prepared on a combined basis to include its affiliated supporting organizations, because CMF's Board of Trustees exercises significant control over these organizations through the appointment of board members for each of these organizations. Investments All investments are carried at estimated fair market value, using quoted market prices. Net realized gains and losses and unrealized increases or decreases resulting from changes in the market value of investments are included in the combined statements of activities and changes in net assets. The realized gain or loss on the sale of investments is the difference between the proceeds received and the basis of specific investments sold. Fixed Assets Fixed assets, which are composed of office space, furniture and equipment, are stated at estimated market value at the date donated or at cost if purchased. Depreciation IS computed by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. 7 • I �Council of Michigan Foundations and Supporting Organizations Notes to Combined Financial Statements (continued) Note A-Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Change in Accounting Principles and Presentation During fiscal 1996, CMF adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SF AS) No. 116, Accounting for Contributions Received and Contributions Made, and SF AS No. 117, Financial Statements of Not-for-Profit Organizations, and applied these standards retroactively. SF AS No. 117 establishes standards for external financial reporting by not-for-profit organizations and requires that resources be classified for accounting and reporting purposes into three net asset categories according to externally (donor) imposed restrictions or the lack thereof (i.e., unrestricted, temporarily restricted or permanently restricted). SF AS No. 116 requires that unconditional promises received from donors be recorded as receivables and revenues in the year in which the promises are received. Promises made (e.g., grants) by CMF are recorded as an expense and a liability when approved by the governing boards of CMF and its supporting organizations, if unconditional, or when the condition is met by the recipient, if conditional. Net Asset Classifications The three net asset groups used for reporting purposes in the accompanying combined financial statements are as follows : Unrestricted Net Assets-Reflect assets that have not been restricted as to use by donors. Certain of these assets have been designated by the governing boards of CMF and its supporting organizations to be used for a specific purpose. These boarddesignated funds reflect investment income earned on MCFYP assets that will be used to fund community foundation programming beyond the year 2000. Temporarily Restricted Net Assets-Reflect contributed assets whose use by CMF and its supporting organizations has been limited by donors for a specific time period or purpose. Permanently Restricted Net Assets-Reflect contributions with donor-imposed restrictions that do not expire and that allow, in certain cases, only the income earned thereon to be expended. Income earned that is restricted for a period of time or purpose is recorded as a temporarily restricted asset. 8 �Council of Michigan Foundations and Supporting Organizations Notes to Combined Financial Statements (continued) Note A-Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Grants Payable Grants are recognized as an expense when approved by the governing boards of CMF and its supporting organizations, if unconditional, or when the related conditions are met by the recipient, if conditional. Grants payable recorded in the accompanying combined balance sheets are generally expected to be paid within one year. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Reclassifications Certain amounts reported in the fiscal 1996 combined financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the fiscal 1997 presentation. Note B-Supporting Organizations Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project The Michigan Community Foundations' youth activity commenced in 1988 and was funded by the W.K. Kellogg Foundation. This activity is aimed at encouraging youth development in local communities while strengthening community foundation leadership and grant-making capacity. CMF has acted as administrator of the original project, with all grant monies received from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation being distributed to community foundation members under conditions defined by the grant agreement. The Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project (MCFYP) was incorporated in November 1993, with a separate board of trustees to oversee the grant-making activities of the project. Since MCFYP ' s incorporation, the W.K. Kellogg Foundation has committed to transfer approximately $42,500,000 ($27,725,000 of which has been received through fiscal 1997) to the supporting organization for complete administration of MCFYP and grant-making activities. 9 �Council of Michigan Foundations and Supporting Organizations Notes to Combined Financial Statements (continued) Note B-Supporting Organizations (continued) Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project (continued) MCFYP received an additional $2,600,000 grant from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation to provide funds for the computerization of Michigan's community foundations, support for foundations that assume responsibility for assisting small affiliate community foundations in their development, and extended support for the youth project, including camp subsidies and national leadership conference funding. Michigan AIDS Fund CMF formed the Michigan AIDS Fund (MAF) for the purpose of managing and administering revenues and expenses of a collaborative funding grant program previously administered by CMF, which acts as a v~hicle for CMF members and others to cooperatively fund AIDS-related projects in Michigan. MAF was incorporated in November 1993, with a separate board of trustees appointed by CMF, to oversee the growing activities and grant-making responsibilities of this program. Note C-Endowment Funds CMF has two endowment funds. The principal amounts of these funds have been permanently restricted by their donors, whereas the investment income earned on the assets of these funds is temporarily restricted for the stated purpose of each fund. Russell G. Mawby Endowment Fund to Improve and Increase Philanthropy The Russell G. Mawby Endowment Fund to Improve and Increase Philanthropy was established during fiscal 1995 to honor Dr. Mawby's contributions to Michigan philanthropy. Dr. Mawby, former Chairman and CEO of the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, was one of the founders of the Council of Michigan Foundations and served as its first chairman in 1972. The purpose of this Fund is to improve and increase philanthropy by continuing and expanding CMF's efforts to enhance philanthropy and increase charitable resources. During fiscal 1996, the W.K. Kellogg Foundation contributed $500,000 to the Fund for the Ruth & Russ Mawby Fund For Kids, with the expressed purpose of improving and increasing philanthropy through youth involvement in the state of Michigan. Permanently restricted net assets ofthis Fund were $1,512,843 and $1,474,592 at March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. 10 I c-- �Council of Michigan Foundations and Supporting Organizations Notes to Combined Financial Statements (continued) Note C-Endowment Funds (continued) William WAllen Endowment Fund The purpose of this Fund is to further the understanding of private philanthropy in federal and state legislative and regulatory matters. The endowment was established with restricted contributions from the member foundations of CMF given in honor of a former CMF board member who was also the first Government Relations chairman. Permanently restricted net assets ofthis Fund were $70,537 at March 31, 1997 and 1996. NoteD-Investments Investments are presented in the combined financial statements at their aggregate market value and are composed of the following: 1997 .....

CMF's grants and contributions receivable consist of unconditional promises by donors to be received as follows: March 31 1997 1996 Receivable in less than one year Receivable in one to five years Receivable in more than five years Less present value discount Net contributions receivable $ 2,556,775 $ 555,266 11,656,304 8,445,798 3,000,000 9,001,064 17,213,079 (3,131,234) (1,884,751) $14,081,845 $7,116,313 The majority of the grants and contributions receivable represent funds that will be regranted to other foundations and not-for-profit organizations in future years. Note F-Annuity Plan CMF has established a tax-deferred annuity plan that covers substantially all employees and enables eligible employees to contribute a portion of their salary to the plan, subject to an annual limitation as prescribed by federal tax regulations. CMF also contributes, for the benefit of each employee, an amount equal to 8% of each eligible employee's salary. CMF recognized contribution expense of $63,000 in 1997 and $48,000 in 1996 related to the plan. Note G-Management Services Agreement An administrative services agreement exists between CMF and its supporting organizations. The administrative agreement requires CMF to provide executive, management, administrative and other such services that the supporting organizations may require. The amounts for these services charged to the supporting organizations are eliminated in the preparation of the combined financial statements. r r r 12 r �Council of Michigan Foundations and Supporting Organizations Notes to Combined Financial Statements (continued) Note H-Federal Tax Status The Internal Revenue Service has ruled that CMF is a public charity, as described in Internal Revenue Code Sections 509(a)(l) and 170(b)(l)(A)(vi). The Internal Revenue Service has also ruled that the two supporting organizations, MCFYP and MAF, are exempt from federal income tax as specified under the provisions of Internal Revenue Code Section 509(a)(3). 13 �S!/ ERNST &YOUNG LLP West Michigan Practice • Suite 1000 171 Monroe Avenue, N .W.

Smyth for Ranny Riecker, Chair Government Relations Committee Re: Update STATE LEGISLATION AND ISSUES Community Foundation Definition The CMF Community Foundation Committee, under the leadership of Jack Hopkins, has proposed a definition of a community foundation (see attached), that is being introduced by Senator Emmons (Chair, Senate Finance Committee), and will be introduced in the House shortly. The Senate and House leadership is supportive of our efforts as we work to create "healthy" community foundations to which every citizen of the state will have access. Community Foundations and Units of Government Issue Legislation is being developed with the involvement of John Martin, Legal Counsel to the Fremont Area Foundation, that will allow units of government, including school systems and public libraries, to transfer gifts received from bequests - not tax money - to community foundations for permanent endowment funds to accomplish the goals of the original donors. This legislation will also give the community foundations flexibility to invest these funds in accordance with their own investment guidelines, and not be limited by Public Act 20. This legislation will be particularly helpful to the community foundations developing in rural Michigan. Community Foundation Escheats CMF continues to investigate how a local community foundation can benefit from escheated funds, as a permanent gift, or at a minimum, as a temporary gift-- receiving the "float", before the funds are returned to the state. CMF is working with legal counsel, as well as David Haynes, Public Affairs and Associates, and the Michigan Bankers Association, to obtain answers. It is a complicated issue, with many interested parties who need to understand the value of CMF's proposal to their local communities. �Devolution CMF is working with Members at the state and local level to respond to the challenges of devolution. CMF is partnering with the Michigan Nonprofit Association (MNA) and other associations, to provide useful information, at the same time making the case for the value of nonprofits. To date, CMF's role is one of providing information as well as collaborating with MNA to publish an issues book describe below. Term Limits Michigan will experience a complete change in its elected state government officials during 1998, 1999, and 2000 due to term limits. CMF is working with MNA, and Public Sector Consultants to design a three year initiative that will deal with the issue of educating new members of the state government to critical issues including those affecting philanthropy and the nonprofit sector. Likely products will include a new Michigan In Briefissues Handbook, last produced in 1992-93. Funding partners are welcome.

FEDERAL LEGISLATION Private Foundation Creation - Full Deductibility The tax provision which provides full deductibility to donors for gifts of publicly traded stock to private foundations, expires in two days (May 31, 1997). The legislation to extend the provision, H. R. 519, is co-sponsored by 24 Congressmen, including nine from Michigan (See attached list,) and S. 194 is cosponsored by nine Senators, including Senator Abraham. Obviously Michigan has done a good job, but according to Senator Moynihan, members of Congress "are not hearing about it" on Capitol Hill. CMF is doubling back to Senator Levin and the seven Michigan Congressmen not currently cosponsors. While CMF is sending letters/faxes to the attached House Ways and Means and Senate Finance Committee members, we would encourage you to do so as well BEFORE June 12, 1997. Attached is a proposed letter prepared by the Council on Foundations. Congressman David Camp's aide, Behrends Foster, gives insight to the challenge when he explains that the Democrats and Republicans have made a deal to consider changes in the capital gains tax, estate tax relief, and a $500 child tax credit. Currently there are $400-$500 billion of proposed cuts being lobbied on Capitol Hill, and space for only $13 5 billion. The full deductibility cut is currently estimated by the Joint Tax Committee at $20 million a year, and while not a whole lot of money on balance, in this environment, every proposed change is under scrutiny. i:ewp:committee/brdtrst/6097govt �The language builds on the current definition of community foundations in the Michigan tax code, letters a - g, enclosed as a reference tool. (4) As used in this section, "community foundation" means an organizaion that applies for certification on or before April 1 of the tax yar for which the taxpayer is claiming the credit and that the department certifies for that tax year as meeting all the follwoing requirements: a) Qualifies for exemption from federal income taxation under sectin 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code. b) Supports a broad range of charitable activities within the. specific geographic area of this state that it serves, such as a municipality or county. c) Maintains an ongoin program to attract new yndowment funds by seeking gifts and bequests from a wide range of potential donors in the community or area served. d) Is publicly supported as defined by the regulations of the United States department of treasury, 26 C.F.R. 1.170A-9(e)(10). e) Is not a supporting organization as defined under section 509(a)(3) of the internal revenue code and the regulations ofthe United States department oftreasury, 26C.F.R . 1.509(a)-4 and 1.509(a)-5. f) Meets the requirements for treatment as_a single entity contained in the regulations of the Unived States department oftreasury, 26 C.F.R. 1.170A-9(e)(ll). (new g) is incorporated or is established as a trust a minimum of six months immediately preceding the tax year for which the credit is claimed and has a minimum endowment value by the sixth month of $25, 000. h) For community foundations established after the date of this legislation, operates in a county of this state that is not served by an existing certified community foundation, or operates as a geographic component fund of an existing certified community foundation. (i) Has an independent governing body not appointed by a single entity and broadly representative of the public interest. OJ provides evidence of ability to support a part-time paid staff. (k) renewal of the tax credit certification requires an annual independent financial review and an independent audit every three years and demonstration that the public support test is being met. ijulreycmtyfndcfdefin �S.E' ) ·· ·· CSJ U1 Bill Summary & Status for t.h e 105th Congress 'N LD '.....

House ofRepresentatives (or) U.S. Senate Washington, D.C. 20515 +four digit code for House members, Washington, D.C. 20510 +four digit code for Senate members Attention: Tax Legislative Assistant Re: Expiration of Incentive for Charitable Giving Dear Representative or Senator _ _ _ _ __ I am writing to ask that you support efforts to restore a valuable incentive for charitable giving. Section 170(e)(5), which expired May 31, permitted donors to deduct the full, fair market value when giving publicly-traded stock to private foundations. Absent this provision, only the original cost or basis of the stock may now be deducted. The bull market of the 1980's has left many wealthy Americans holding large amounts of highly appreciated publicly-traded stock. By providing a strong tax incentive for lifetime gifts of such stock to private foundations, Section 170(eX5) has encouraged thousands of these individuals to dedicate a substantial portion of their wealth to public rather than private purposes by creating endowed, grantmaking; philanthropic organizations. The expiration of this provision will discourage further gifts and result in fewer grants reaching charitable organizations. While extension of the provision is helpful, the on-again-off-again pattern of expiring provisions makes long range planning for charitable giving impossible. It is important that the incentive be permanently restored to the IRS Code. Foundations have been providing important support for charitable causes in (insert representative's city, region or state) for many years. (Ifpossible, insert a brief example or examples offowzdation-supported activities in the representative's district.) Today, as government at all levels is under increasing pressure to reduce spending, foundations have become even more important sources of support for vital charitable initiatives. Please insure that these important institutions continue to thrive by voting your support for permanent restoration of Section 170(e)(5). Legislation has been introduced to achieve this end. Congressmen David Camp and Ben Cardin have cosponsored H.R. 519, and Senators Pat Moynihan John Chafee have introduced S.l94. These sponsors will be working to include their bills in the Budget reconciliation package. I am writing to request your support for their efforts. �From: Baboock. Anne To: Dorofly A.

Mawby Re: K-12 Education in Philanthropy Project Personnel The K-12 Education in Philanthropy Project is well underway. Terry Robidoux, an award winning social studies high school teacher with over 25 years of experience, has been hired as the Curriculum Specialist. Judy Wright, of the C:MF staff, will be transferring over to the project as Executive Secretary during June. This completes the staffing for the project. Offices Offices for the project have been found at education related institutions which will enhance the project. Both hosts are providing access to office equipment and services which helps the project to save on office expenses. Terry is housed at the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards in Detroit. Kathy and Judy will be located at the Muskegon Area Intermediate School District. Teacher Selection The applications for participation as a site development school are out to teachers in Michigan. A problem with the delivery of the initial mailing may result in some rescheduling of the selection and curriculum development by delaying the site selection until fall. We will know about the status of the site applications by June 13th and the Steering Committee will either select the sites or revise the schedule at their meeting on June 26, 1997. Fund-Raising An active fund development committee is working on raising the remaining $3 million required to implement the project as designed. Formal background packets, telephone conversations, and requests for appointments have been mailed to the Carnegie Foundation, the DeWitt-Wallace Foundation, the Pew Charitable Trusts, and an anonymous New York Foundation. An appointment is scheduled for June 24, 1996 with the Carnegie Foundation and conversations are underway for a visit at the same time with the anonymous donor and/or the Ford Foundation. The Pew Charitable Trusts have requested a conference call to explore the project further. An informal inquiry and request for appointment has also been made with the Lucille and David Packard Foundation. An initial conversation and proposal has also gone to the Frey Foundation for their consideration. �Numerous organizations continue to contribute to the project. The Kettering Foundation has agreed to donate 35 subscriptions and memberships to the teachers and the project staff members over the next three years. Their series on civil society will be especially helpful. The Johnson Foundation has sent 40 copies of their publication on the relationship between service-learning, and school-to-work programs. Energize, of Philadelphia, has sold their book By the People (an excellent history of voluntarism in the United States) to us at cost. Steering Committee Additions Kathleen Strauss, a member of the Michigan Board ofEducation has agreed to join the committee. The Michigan Council for Social Studies, the professional organization of social studies teachers in the State, have enthusiastically endorsed the project and have asked to be represented in our discussions. Philanthropy Institute The conference to first discuss and then to publish an intellectual framework for the development ofthe curriculum is scheduled for October 19, 20, and 21 at the Amway in Grand Rapids. Robert Payton from the Indiana School on Philanthropy, Robert Wuthnow from Princeton University, and Harry Boyt from the Humphrey Center in Minneapolis are confirmed participants. An invitation is out to John Gardner and strong interest in participation has been expressed by Bill Bradley. Other invitations have been sent and we are waiting final confirmation. A number of the leading scholars in the area of civil society, the development of altruistic behavior in children, service-learning, philanthropy, and volunteerism have already agreed to submit papers for consideration. Other Details Other organizational details such as the early dissemination strategy, the computer network system for the teachers, the evaluation strategy and resources, and continuing collection of resource materials for the teachers are underway. The Steering Committee remains actively involved in the project.

Johnson Re: President's Report CMF has had a busy first two months of our new fiscal year. The following information compliments the reports you have received from the CMF Committees, and is a compilation of the efforts of several CMF staff members. Additional information is available on request on each subject. Presidential Summit on Volunteerism Several CMF Members were present at the April Philadelphia Conference, and many have made commitments to the ongoing activities of America's Promise, including the W. K. Kellogg Foundation, Charles Stewart Mott Foundation, Pistons-Palace Foundation, and several corporations and some community foundations.

CMF and MNA are evaluating the merit of sponsoring the conference on a biannual basis. �~ Institute for New Staff will be held at the Council's office on August 14-15, 1997. The Institute is intended for grantmakers (staff and trustees) who have recently entered the field with up to eighteen months of grantmaking experience.

This is proving to be an extremely positive arrangement. In place of the immediate production of a CD product, we are currently investigating the possibility of mounting our databases on the Internet. Michigan Community Foundations Youth Project (MCFYP) The next Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project (MCFYP) Board ofTrustees meeting is scheduled for June 12, 1997. Election of new Trustee and Approval of Officers At the June meeting, the Trustees will approve the election of Jack Hopkins to the MCFYP Board of Trustees to fill the vacancy of John E.

Kellogg Foundation. YAC Best Practices The following "Youth Advisory Committee (YA C) Best Practices" were prepared by staff with input from a Formative Evaluation Research Associates (FERA) conducted "group interview" of YAC Advisors and community foundation staff. The guidelines were reviewed at the February joint MCFYP Executive Committee and Community Foundation Committee meeting, and were further revised by the Michigan community foundation Executive Directors at their March retreat. The MCFYP Board of Trustees will approve the adoption of -- ----------------- �the "YAC Best Practices" as criteria for operating a Y AC as a standing committee of a Michigan community foundation. YOUTH ADVISORY COMMITTEE BEST PRACTICES The following Best Practices are recommended as criteria for operating a Youth Advisory Committee (YAC) as a standing committee of a community foundation . It is helpful to review these annually as part of a self-audit process. The role of theY AC is to advise on the distributions of funds from a permanent Youth Fund through activities such as: assessing local youth needs, involving youth in fund development, and supporting systems for involving young people in philanthropy. 1. A permanent standing committee of the community foundation, the YAC meets a mhRimum of six times a year. 2. YAC membership of at least 7 youth is representative of the youth community. 3. A trained adult advisor works with the YAC. 4. There is an annual orientation process for new YAC members. 5. As the basis for grantmaking, the YAC collects information, at least every three years 9 about the assets and needs related to youth in its community. 6. YAC members are provided opportunities to be involved in fund development. Helping to ensure the continued growth of the youth fund, emphasis should be placed on donor calls and community presentations, based on local youth issues and concerns, rather than "fund raising" activities. 7. The YAC completes an annual proactive grantmaking process, that involves and builds the capacity of youth as resources and decision makers in their communities, and results in the recommendation of grants to the community foundation Board. 8. YAC members should participate in available leadership training opportunities. 9. A YAC has a process to evaluate its ongoing operations, including the effectiveness ofYAC grants. 10. YAC members have an opportunity to meet annually with members of the Board of Trustees of the community foundation. The purpose of involving theYAC in the activities of a community foundation is to provide opportunities for sharing between the adult Board of Trustees and theYAC members. When appropriate, YAC members may attend board meetings, participate in an annual meeting, or join in special events. 11. Grantmaking by the YAC is featured in annual reports, newsletters, public presentations, and other communications tools. This communicates to the wider public the importance of the YAC and youth involvement in the community foundation . �S7 12. The community foundation may support a project funded by the YAC with income from a different endowment fund. The community foundation board may jointly fund a project with the YAC. 13. The YAC may review youth-related proposals that are submitted to the community foundation at-large. As experienced grantmakers, YAC members can provide valuable insights into the value of projects serving youth. i:ewp:committee/brdtrst/pres6-97 �J ) EXIT 49A II HICKORY CORNERS N PLAINWELL -- ) ) - -:--:: . . .. \ 37 lll.JlJlJ north 4Hth slrl'l'l ,HJgusta, michig,m -N!ll2-llC)()() (ll6.7ll.2()l)(} Xlltl."i6lA:N7 : EXIT 85 FROM KALAMAZOO ... tlll M-·B (Cull Roild) to Richl,md .

Richardson, Chairman Principles & Practices Task Force Resolved: The attached 1997 CMF Principles & Practices (P&P's) be adopted and conveyed to the membership per the plan described below. That the P&P's be :reviewed and updated annually by the Board of Trustees or their designates. Background At the November, 1996 CMF Board of Trustees Meeting, a Task Force was appointed by CMF Chair, Mariam C. Noland, to review, evaluate, and update the "CMF Principles & Practices for Effective Grantmaking." Board members serving on the Task Force are as follows: William C. Richardson (Chair) President, CEO & Trustee W. K. Kellogg Foundation Dr. Dennis L. Bark Chairman, Board. of Trustees Earhart Foundation Ms. Ann K. Irish President, Elizabeth E. Kennedy Fund Trustee, Earhart Foundation Ms. Colleen D. Keast President Whirlpool Foundation Mr. David B. Kennedy President Earhart Foundation Mr. John E. Marshall III President/ CEO/ Trustee The Kresge Foundation Ms. Mariam C. Noland President Comm. Foundation for SE Michigan Ms. Helen M. Philpott Trustee Community Foundation of Greater Flint Dr. John W. Porter Trustee Charles Stewart Mott Foundation Ms. Kari Schlachtenhaufen Vice President The Skillman Foundation Mr. Stephen E. Upton Chairman, Board of Trustees FrederickS. Upton Foundation �/9 The Task Force evaluated the current CMF Principles & Practices, based on those prepared by the Council on Foundations in the early '80's, in addition to looking at ideas from other nonprofits and regional associations, particularly the Minnesota Council on Foundations. The Task Force was staffed by CMF President, Dorothy A. Johnson and Vice President, RobertS . Collier. Principles The ten proposed principles are attached. It is anticipated that these principles will be published as part of the CMF Annual Report and other appropriate publications. Principles & Practices This document, copy attached, includes not only the ten principles noted above, but examples of practices that have proven to be beneficial to one or more Michigan grantmakers in achieving the principles. While many of these practices are required by law, a number are unique to specific types of grantmakers. It is intended that grantmakers choose among the practices that best suit their operational requirements. Dissemination Plan Following approval by the CMF Board ofTrustee_s the Task Force recommends that a letter (signed by the CMF and Task Force Chair) and a copy of the Principles & Practices be sent to each CMF Member. The letter will not only highlight the rationale for the P&P's, but will indicate that the CMF Annual Conference will include a concurrent session discussing the issues surrounding each principle. (Note: Bill Richardson has agreed to participate, and task force members are being asked to do the same.) In addition CMF will do the following: • • • • • • Include a copy of the principles in the packets distributed to each donor requesting information about giving Distribute the practices to the same group, as requested Publish principles as part of appropriate CMF publications Feature principles as part of appropriate CMF workshops, such as the Institute for New Trustees and New Staff Share materials with other regional associations of grantmakers and philanthropic organizations Respond to other opportunities and requests Other ideas for dissemination are most welcome. Consideration ofthe 1997 CMF Principles & Practices has been stimulating and thoughtprovoking. We recommend approval, at the same time underscoring the recommendation to review P&P annually, in order to remain responsive to issues effecting grantmaking. i:ewp:committee/brdtrst/697ppmem �Council of Michigan Foundations Principles Michigan is blessed with a tradition of philanthropic giving. This is demonstrated in part by an increasing number of foundations and corporate giving programs that are vital partners with the public, private and nonprofit sectors in strengthening the quality of life for all residents. Members of the Council of Michigan Foundations (CMF) have requested information and guidance on matters to consider when assessing the operational effectiveness of their foundation or corporate giving program. Likewise, individuals considering the formation of a private or community foundation or corporate giving program, have asked for guidelines to consider. With this in mind, the CMF Board of Trustees has adopted the following Principles. Also available are examples of practices that have proven to be beneficial to one or more Michigan grantmakers in achieving each principle. For a copy of the Practices, which are updated annually, and for further information about these Principles, please contact the CMF office. 1. Honor donor intent by respecting the basic purposes and expectations as set forth by the donor(s) in documents or other forms of communication creating the grantmaking organization. 2. Have an identifiable decision-making body responsible for determining and revisiting periodically the policies that define the program interests and objectives to be served, 3. Be accountable to the law and to the responsibilities of being a fiduciary and of tax exemption, 4. Adhere to the highest standards of ethical behavior. 5. Review and evaluate periodically the mission, policies, grantmaking priorities and practices. 6. Be accessible in responding clearly and promptly to requests for information and grant applications. 7. Deal respectfully with applicants, grantees, and donors to help address shared goals. 8. Make readily available basic information about funding priorities, application requirem ents~ and grantmaking through publishing and distributing periodic communication tools such as an annual report. 9. Draw on the full range of human talents available for board service, staff, and consultants. 10. Learn by networking with other grantmakers and by participating in organizations, like CMF, that support the field of philanthropy.

This is demonstrated in part by an increasing number of foundations and corporate giving programs that are vital partners with the public, private and nonprofit sectors in strengthening the quality of life for all residents. Members of the Council of Michigan Foundations (CMF) have requested information and guidance on matters to consider when assessing the operational effectiveness of their foundation or corporate giving program. Likewise, individuals considering the formation of a private or community foundation or corporate giving program (hereafter referred to as grantmakers/grantmaking organization), have asked for a similar checklist of guidelines to consider. With this in mind, the CMF Board of Trustees has adopted the following ten Principles that are highlighted in bold. The CMF Board recognizes that there are many different approaches to implementation of each principle. Therefore, following each principle are examples of practices that have proven to be beneficial to one or more Mi_chigan grantmakers in achieving the principle. While many ofthese practices are required oy-law, a number are unique to specific types of grantmakers. In the latter category, it is intended that grantmakers choose among the practices that best suit their operational requirements. Intended to be instructional, these practices are updated annually in order to share what works well for grantmakers. Other examples of practices and materials to implement each principle are available from the CMF office. Additional ideas are always welcome. I. Honor donor intent by respecting the basic purposes and expectations as set forth by the donor(s) in documents or other forms of communication creating the grantmaking organization. • Have donor(s) talk about their interests and expectations with the board, ideally videotaping the meeting for future reference and generations. Encourage donor(s) to be as clear as possible about their purpose in creating the grantmaking organization. • Make certain that copies of the creating documents and any other written correspondence are available in a manual for each board member. • Request that each board member reread the organizing documents and any other purpose statements, at least once a year. i/RCollier/CMFBoard/Principl �• Reiterate the donor's intent in any annual report or other foundation publications. • If our changing society makes following the donor' s specific instructions impractical, find related alternative strategies of grantmaking that reasonably honor the donor' s intent. 2. Have an identifiable decision-making body responsible for determining and revisiting periodically, the policies that define the program interests and objectives to be served. • In most cases, the founder establishes the first board. In selecting board members, qualifications to consider may include: -Agreeability with the Stated Purposes of the Foundation/Donor, -willingness to participate actively, -policy, programmatic and fiscal experience, -commitment to the integrity of the J?;rantmaking process, -reputation for fairness and equality, -philosophy, gender, race, ethnicity and socio-economic status, and -willingness to become informed. • Orient new board members to their responsibilities by sharing written materials including the organizational documents, any written correspondence from the founder and individual meetings with other board members and staff. • Establish a plan and process for the periodic review of board member performance as a body and individually. • If compensation is provided, consider the appropriateness of fees in relation to board member responsibilities and the time commitment in board service. 3. Be accountable to the law and to the responsibilities of being a fiduciary and of tax exemption. • Board members must be familiar with all federal and state legal requirements including such subjects as the private foundation pay-out, excise tax and self-dealing laws, annual filing of 990 PF and 990, as well as state requirements. • Consider the merit of an annual independent audit. Most grantmakers of any size have an independent audit. i/RCollier/CMFBoard/Principl - ----------- �·- ··- ·· · ··· ··· · -·- ~-·-···-··-·- ---------------------------, • Make certain that sufficient administrative funding is maintained to assure that the grantmaker can carry out its mission effectively. Expenses should not be excessive or disproportionate to the amounts spent directly for grants and technical assistance to grantees. Review salary and expense surveys compiled by grantmaker associations. • Develop investment objectives and asset allocation policies to help insure appropriate oversight of investment performance. 4. Adhere to the highest standards of ethical behavior. • Establish processes that ensure that personal interests of board members and staff do not conflict with grantmaker' s mission and purpose. • Establish a conflict of interest policy. Such a policy may include: -Procedure to disclose organizational affiliations with grantees, potential grantees or other constituents or vendors with whom the organization does business, -Procedures for decision-making when a board member or employee has a real or perceived conflict of interest, - Policy on acceptance of fees or entertainment from a grantee or a potential grantee. 5. Review and evaluate periodically the mission, policies, grantmaking priorities and practices. • Review on an annual basis governing principles and policies. Depending on the number and scope, such a review may be established on a rotating basis for a certain month of each year. • Some grantmakers conduct their own review internally, others enlist outside help to conduct an annual review. Others use grantees and other representatives of the community to help assess current needs and problems. i/RCollier/CMFBoard/Principl �6. Be accessible in responding clearly and promptly to requests for information and grant applications. • Publish an address and the name of an individual to contact for information. Grantmakers that maintain offices, if feasible, should also publish a phone number, office location and office hours. • Make information available to at least one publisher of a foundation directory, and ideally all, in order that correct information regarding a grantmaker's purposes and priorities may be available to the public. • Make information available to the Foundation Center and CMF, in order that correct information regarding a grantmaker's purposes and priorities may be published in directories available to the Public. 7. Deal respectfully with applicants, grantees and donors -- recognizing a partnership is needed to attain shared goals. • Respond in a timely manner to all requests. • Be clear about any reporting requirements and the nature of any monitoring that will take place. Some grantmakers include a list of standard requirements in the grant award letter. 8. Make readily available basic information about funding priorities, application requirements, and grantmaking through publishing and distributing periodic communication tools such as an annual report. • The format, detail and dissemination strategies of such publications or materials need to be appropriate to the size and complexity of the grantmaker' s program and to the needs of its prospective grant applicants. • As appropriate, the following administrative information about each grantmaking organization should be included: - name of board members, names and titles of officers, listing of staff, and financial information, including total income, expenditures, and a balance sheet. i/RCollier/CMFBoard/Principl �• Provide a full and clear description of its grantmaking process, including for example, information about its: - - • mission and goals, program interests, funding priorities and any restrictions on what is supported, geographic limitations, if any, preferred format for applications, application deadlines, statements of when and how requests will be acknowledged, an estimate of the time needed for a decision, a list of grants made in the previous year, policies and practices related to multi-year funding, and average size and range of grants made. When a policy or procedure changes significantly, those affected, including grant applicants, should be advised within a reasonable period of time. 9. Draw on the full range of human talents available for board service, staff9 and consultants. • Some grantmakers have established a diversity policy to help them in considering how to obtain the best qualified individual for each task. • Some grantmakers consider the demographics of their geographic area served when nominating board members and selecting staff 10.

Rappleye, Chair CMF Audit & Finance Committee RE: Selection ofNew Auditing Firm. Resolved: That the Council of Michigan Foundations' Board of Trustees accept the recommendation of the Audit & Finance Committee to retain Coopers & Lybrand, LLP to provide the auditing services for CMF and its supporting organizations for the next three years. Background After an extensive Request For Proposal process the Audit & Finance Committee is recommending that Coopers & Lybrand be hired to perform the auditing services for CMF, MCFYP and the Michigan AIDS Fund for the next three years. During this process RFP's were sent to eight potential firms with offices in the Western Michigan area. From the RFP's received, management along with input from the Audit & Finance Committee narrowed the list down to three firms who met with the Audit & Finance Committee on October 24, 1997. • BDO Seidman, LLP • Coopers & Lybrand, LLP • Plante & Moran, LLP The final three candidates were selected based on twelve criteria used to evaluate each RFP submitted. The criteria ranged from experience with foundations and CMF members to overall costs of the audit. During this process the Committee learned that of the original "Big Six" (now "Big Four") accounting firms (ofwhich Ernst & Young, our past auditors, were a member) only Coopers & Lybrand has shown an interest in serving nonprofit clients the size of CMF. The other firms in this group are starting to focus their attention on the consulting end of the business which they feel is more profitable.

Rappleye, CMF Treasurer RE : CMF & Supporting Organizations September 30, 1997 Financial Report. Resolved: That the Council of Michigan Foundations' Board of Trustees accept the enclosed Financial Report as of September 30, 1997. On October 24, 1997 the CMF Audit & Finance Committee met to review and approve the CMF, MCFYP and Michigan AIDS Fund Balance Sheet and Statement of Activities for the six months ended September 30, 1997. During this process the committee reviewed detailed statements of the supporting organizations ( MCFYP and the Michigan AIDS Fund) which compared the six month actual results to the six month budget. The financial results of the first six months of the current fiscal year are highlighted below. -~ The overall balance sheet position for CMF continues to remain very strong. One item of particular note is the fact that the William Allen- and Russell G. Mawby endowment funds have reached a market value of$2,017,000, which includes an outstanding pledge of$300,000 due to be received in December 1997. In addition the cash equivalents for CMF has a current balance of $1,281,000, of which the majority of this balance is due to funds received for special projects. Member contributions have remained very strong for the first six month of the year. With our current membership campaign we have recently surpassed 400 members. On the personnel front, the Director ofFamily Foundation's position has recently been filled by Susan Howbert who will be located in office space contiguous to the Skillman Foundation in Detroit. The Skillman Foundation has graciously donated the office space for the CMF Detroit office, along with making a three-year commitment to help fund a portion of the operating expenses for this office. In addition, CMF has received positive feedback from other members in the Detroit area to support partial funding of this office on a declining basis over the next three years. The salary and related benefits for Susan Howbert are being funded by the CMF Core Operations budget that was set aside for the previous Director ofFamily Foundations. Susan will be focusing her attention on family foundation issues along with addressing the needs of our members in the southeast Michigan area. Overall management expects expenses to be within budget with a few exceptions. At the September CMF Executive Committee meeting CMF management addressed those areas that may run over budget. It should be noted that during this discussion there were no major variances anticipated at this time. Management recommended that the projected variances for the current fiscal year will be brought to the Audit & Finance Committee and the Executive Committee for approval at their respective meetings in January 1998. l:IDLINDBER\BOARDME1\CMF\I997\Mll0597.DOC �19 MCFYP Over the past several month MCFYP has experienced a couple of major developments with this project which are summarized below. The W.K. Kellogg Foundation has recently awarded MCFYP an additional $10,000,000 to complete the final round of challenge grants which require a two-for-one match by the community foundations . The cutoff for raising these funds will be December 31 , 1998. The awarding of these grants in January 1999 will then complete the final round of the current Kellogg challenge grant. $5,000,000 of this grant was received during the month of October. The Kellogg Foundation has also disbursed $10,173 ,000 in funds to MCFYP, during the month of September for previously awarded grants. According to the original grant letters these funds were scheduled to be received in 1998 and 1999 and therefore should result in a significant increase in investment income over the next two years. Michigan AIDS Fund The Michigan AIDS Funds (MAF) continues to experience an increase in contributions over the previous years. The most significant increase is due to a $500,000 grant received from the State of Michigan. During the past year the Michigan AIDS Fund has completed the transition to a new executive director (Dennis Stover who previously worked for the National AIDS Fund). With the experience that Dennis has brought from the national level, MAF has experienced significant growth in programming thanks to the additional funds that have been raised over the past year. 1:\DLINDBE R\BOARD MEl\CMF\ 1997\M I 10597.

Swaney, Jr. Chair of C:MF Investment Committee RE: September 30, 1997 Investment Report Resolved: That the September 30, 1997, Investment Report be approved as presented. The enclosed investment report summarizes the internal rates of return for the investment portfolio for CMF and its supporting organizations for the twelve months ended September 30, 1997. The various funds of the Council ofMichigan Foundations and it's supporting organizations can be separated into two categories for investment strategy purposes. The first category represents funds which are used for operating expenses or to meet future challenge grant commitments for the Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project. Because of the time horizon these funds _are invested in either US Treasury Securities or money market accounts. On a quarterly basis the investment committee reviews an evaluation of the future cash flow projections to determine the appropriate investment vehicle for these operating funds. In the past a portion of the MCFYP challenge grant funds have been invested in U .S. Treasury Securities to achieve a higher rate of return. Recent market developments have made this option less attractive. The second category of investments represents endowment funds which are permanent in nature and therefore have a long term investment horizon. As the size of the funds have grown and the equities portion of the portfolio has become fully invested, the committee has approved an investment schedule that will move a portion of the equities investments from an S&P 500 index fund to the following index funds: • • • S&P MidCap 400 S&P SmallCap 600 International Equity Trust f: \stafi\dlindber\boardmet\cmf\ 1997\rn 110 5 97b.doc �24 It is anticipated that the initial diversification of the endowment funds into the index funds listed above should be completed by October 31, 1997.

Both bills are being considered by the House Tax Policy Committee. A hearing is tentatively scheduled for Wednesday, October 29, 1997. FEDERAL LEGISLATION H.R. 2499, a bill to extend the tax deduction for charitable contributions to non-itemizers, has been introduced by Representatives Crane (R-IL), Herger (R-CA), Coyne (D-PA), and Thurman (D-FL). The legislation, would allow non-itemizers to deduct 50% of their annual charitable contributions totaling over $500 each year. The concept of the legislation is part of the CMF Legislative Goal Statement. Legislation is being developed which would make permanent the deductibility of gifts to private foundations of publicly traded stock. As you know the provision is now enacted through June, 1998. Congressman David Camp (R-MI) and member of the House Ways & . Means Committee, will once again be a primary cosponsor. CMF VISITS CAPITOL HILL The annual CMF Members' visit to Washington D.C. will be held the evening of Tuesday, February 3rd, and Wednesday, February 4th. It is once again scheduled to coincide with the annual visits to the Hill sponsored by the Forum of Regional Associations ofGrantmakers. Foundation and corporate giving officers from throughout the country will be meeting with their respective delegations. Tuesday evening, the CMF delegation will meet for dinner, discussion of the issues, and ideally a meeting with a Congressman, like Representative Camp, which was done last year. The Wednesday morning breakfast meeting of the Washington University of Michigan Club provides an extra benefit to meet informally with our Congressional delegation. In addition to keeping the Michigan delegation current on foundation and corporate giving activity, we will discuss the proposed bill to make permanent the deduction for gifts to private foundations of publicly-traded stock, and present copies of "Making a Difference," the new CMF publication highlighting grants made by CMF Members. �NONPROFIT PARTNERS CMF continues to work actively on the state and national level with our counterpart nonprofit associations. On a national level the Council on Foundations is providing leadership on federal legislation, working with the 25 regional associations. Four CMF board members (Jack Hopkins, Colleen Keast, Mariam Noland, and Bill Richardson) are members ofthe COF Board and COF's Legs and Regs Committee. The Chair is Joel Orosz (Kellogg Foundation), who succeeded Ranny Riecker in the position. CMF also works with Independent Sector (IS). John Marshall and Bill White are currently IS board members. On a state level, CMF actively works with the Michigan Nonprofit Association, United Way of Michigan, Michigan Community Service Commission, and other nonprofits. We are pleased to be partnering with the Michigan Nonprofit Association on a special term-limits project funded by theW. K. Kellogg Foundation and the C. S. Mott Foundation. As Michigan begins its first experience with term limits, it is more important than ever that the new state policy-makers be fully briefed on nonprofit issues. i:ewp:committee/govt/legisl/1 027memo � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

The goal ofthe K-12 Education in Philanthropy Project is to develop a model which will help perpetuate a civil society through the education of children about the independent sector, and to achieve their commitment to private citizen action for the public good. We define philanthropy as giving/sharing, serving/volunteering, and private voluntary action for the public good. A copy of the Steering Committee membership-follows. Three Major Objectives There are three major program objectives: 1) Write, field test, pilot and implement in Michigan, nationally, and, perhaps, internationally, K-12 modules and teaching materials toward a curriculum in philanthropy of the highest quality which can be infused into content courses, primarily the social studies and language arts, 2) Link, in a meaningful way, the modules and materials and curriculum to the state and national education content standards in the United States, and 3) Incorporate experiential (including service) learning into the teaching units as a key strategy. Comprehensive Planning and Strategies The project is organized through a detailed and comprehensive plan developed over three years by leading educators, nonprofit and volunteer leaders, and foundations. The following are the key strategies: K . l rl!RY.--: c\ . ,.'\(; w.o PRo.JECT Dmrcrrm h31l !Lin•: ' Street \lu;;i-;c~ c ·n.· \II 4'l~42-2.3<JX TmRY fZ OBIDOt·., Ct RRICL'I.l .\1 Si't:CL\LIST 2 65~5 Everurccn.

Progress Report The Steering Committee has met three times for full-day meetings, with substantial work in subcommittees on the key issues of the project in between. Kathleen Strauss, President of the Michigan Board of Education, and Ken Mareski, representative of the Michigan Council for Social Studies, have joined the Committee. Offices have been established on the west and east side of the state, and professional staff have been hired, oriented, and are at work on the project goals. Several meetings have been held with the Indiana partners, the next three-day meeting is scheduled for December. A number of strategies to begin knitting the projects together have been developed and are in process. Significant efforts to share materials and resources continue between the partners. The project has been presented to, discussed at, and will continue with ties to several state, national and international meetings including the national meeting of the Regional Associations of Grantmakers, the National Middle School Conference, and the Conference of Governors. The Kettering Foundation, the Surdna Foundation, and three community foundations have contributed to the project. The case statement has been rewritten to express the potential national model of the project. Active fund-raising is currently underway. Another $2.3 million over the next three years is needed to complete the project as designed. Forty-six teachers have been identified and are working actively on the curriculum modules. Thirty are working 50% of their paid time on the project. Sixteen are working as volunteers on their own time. A matrix showing the teachers by grade level and school type is attached. Three, two-day meetings have been held with the teachers. One meeting has been held with their principals. C:\My Documents\KA\K-12GEN\Board Reports\Nov. CMF Board Report.doc �49 The computer system is in its final stages of installation. The LISTSERV is operational. The web-site is under construction. Resources for teachers have been distributed and are in continuous acquisition and distribution. A lending library is in place. Graduate and continuing education credit for the teachers involved has been secured. Four types of assessment have been designed and are on the verge of final contracting. Michigan State University and Indiana University School of Education at Bloomington will be conducting the evaluations. The evaluation includes a substantive and validated tool for assessing student learning. Dissemination strategies are planned and the early phases are underway. A major national conference to frame an intellectual structure for the writing of the materials in Michigan and Indiana, led by the Indiana Center on Philanthropy, was successfully held October 19, 20 and 21, 1997. Over one hundred and seventy people, including youth, participated in substantial discussions with leading national level scholars. The proceedings from this conference will be published by the Indiana University Press. The teachers will be writing modules, units, lessons and materials from now through February. They will begin pilot testing their units from March through June. The materials will be reviewed by a "Fairness Committee" to assure all foreseeable social sensitivities are addressed before pilot testing. C:\My Documents\KA\K-12GEN\Board Reports\Nov. CMF Board Report.doc �50 NATIONAL KINDERGARDEN THROUGH TWELFTH GRADE (K-12) EDUCATION IN PHILANTHROPY MODEL TEACHING MODULES, MATERIALS, AND CURRICULUM CASE STATEMENT Each day leaders from emerging democracies come to the United States with a relatively surprising question. They want to know how they can create a third sector in their countries. They ask for guidance on teaching democratic and philanthropic principles to their children, and about systems for passing on the tradition of private citizens working for the common good. They come to the United States because they recognize that the third sector in America is fundamental to building and sustaining a secure democracy, and to making our heterogeneous society function. Their questions echo many of those posed by teachers in the United States: How do we engage children in life? How do we harness youthful idealism and combat growing cynicism? How do we teach caring about others, particularly those less fortunate? What is missing from our courses in government, history, economics, sociology, psychology, and philosophy that results in young adults without understanding or passion for the noble ideas of their society? It is astonishing, but true: the United S-tates has difficulty answering questions from emerging democratic nations because, until recently, the transmission of the philanthropic tradition from one generation to the next was informal, and so effective as to be transparent. There has never been a curriculum for teaching the facts or inculcating the values of the independent sector. Teaching About the Third Sector in Schools In this country, history is taught without serious attention to the role of volunteers in building the first black colleges or the role of private donors in funding the Salk vaccine for polio. Neither psychology nor sociology, frequently focused on deviance, explore the motivations and the relationships involved in setting aside self-interest for the benefit of the community. When economics is taught, the curriculum does not directly discuss the 13% of the economy represented in the activities of the third sector as it does the value of government and manufacturing. The teacher often does not address the 20 billion volunteer hours each year, which add value to the economy and promotes our common community interests. Education in civics does not elaborate on the nonprofit sector as the source of new ideas that lead to social policy changes, or the third sector as the place that develops the skills that are needed for public discourse and democratic compromise. C :\My Documents\KA\K-1 2GEN\FUNDRAIS\Packard\Case Statement & Commonly Asked Questions.doc �51 School-to-work programs often ignore the opportunities for employment in the third sector found by nine million Americans, nearly one in eight workers in the United States. While a counseling career may be discussed, and even may be called a "helping profession" the connection is not necessarily made that this career exists because of the nonprofit organization employing the counselor and the caring and voluntary financial support ofthe community. Recognition of the role and importance of this sector seem transparent to our children. While children may go to church and participate in scouting, they may not understand that they are participating in an identifiable social arrangement of critical importance to their freedom, security, and future. Field trips to museums, symphonies, and libraries often do not provide the information that these institutions rely on the community for funding and volunteers. Children may never know that the library exists because of individuals acting on a common interest. Children may never understand that the senior citizen describing the dinosaurs is giving his time so they can enjoy the museum, and so they may have difficulty understanding the benefit to volunteering. We have relied in the past on churches, families, friends and neighborhoods to teach children the value and significance-of service and giving. We have assumed that our children know their heritage as citizens who do not need to be "empowered" by an outside agency, but who are born empowered as their inherent right of citizenship. We have taken for granted that the values of philanthropy will be assimilated and carried forward by the next generation. Therefore, we have failed to develop a formal, institutional system for cultural transference of this tradition. It is sadly ironic that today, as emerging foreign democracies seek our assistance in establishing philanthropic traditions of their own, the traditional forces for teaching this ethic to children in the United States are eroding. The very skills and community cohesion necessary to offset forces of social disintegration, especially in an increasingly diverse culture, are skills and experiences found in the third sector, yet the sector remains a mystery to many American children. Why the Council of Michigan Foundations (CMF) Is Undertaking This Effort While a myriad of data and indicators from national studies might be sited in order to support this loss of socialization, CMF's first hand experience with young people in the State of Michigan over the past ten years provides our motivation. Since 1988, CMF has led a $50+ million effort to build a system of youth philanthropy across the State of Michigan. The Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project, funded by the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, has C:\M y Documents\KA\K·l2GEN\FUNDRA!S\Packard\Case Statement & Commonly Asked Questions.doc �52 provided funds up to $1 million to be endowed in local community foundations. This challenge-matching program requires that the Kellogg funds are permanently endowed and that young people (under age 21) forever serve as the advisors for local youth grants to be made from the interest on these funds. In preparing the 2,000+ young people each year for service on youth committees; through an annual three-day leadership camp, two regional meetings each year, video-conferencing, and a State Youth Board, CMF has learned how little our youth know about the function and role of the nonprofit sector. We have also learned how powerless many of our youth feel, and the difference in their perception when they understand the power in the nonprofit sector, and their ability to effect their future world. Developing Teaching Modules and Materials about Philanthropy The Council of Michigan Foundations and a Steering Committee of 11 collaborating leaders in education, volunteerism, and nonprofit leadership have begun a unique effort to write, field test, implement and disseminate quality K-12 curriculum modules and materials in philanthropy. The project is being nurtured and piloted in Michigan with plans to create national and international interest in the modules. Though the project is only in its first year, dozens of organizations from other states and more than 30 educational leaders from other nations have expressed interest in the curriculum. The long-term goal of the project is to develop and replicate curriculum modules and materials for perpetuating a civil society through the education of children about the independent sector, and to achieve their commitment to private citizen action for the public good. The modules and materials which are a part of the curriculum will contain both academic content about philanthropy, and skill development activities which involve students in giving and serving their communities. The project has received initial support from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, the Lilly Endowment, the Surdna Foundation, and the Kettering Foundation. The basic strategy for the project is a grassroots teacher led effort to infuse academic content about philanthropy and service learning process into the curriculum. Forty-six teachers in twenty-two school systems serving a variety of communities in rural, suburban, and urban settings, are developing curriculum modules and materials, piloting, field testing, and building authentic evaluation processes. The teachers are in kindergarten through senior high school classrooms, in public and private schools, from downtown Detroit to the Upper Peninsula. Once field-testing is completed, the modules and materials will be disseminated in a Website to be shared nationally and internationally without cost. During the C:\My Documents\KA\K-12GEN\FUNDRAIS\Packard\Case Statement & Commonly Asked Questions.doc �53 process of writing and testing, national and international educators will be linked into the writing through the Internet, presentations at meetings, communications and informal networking. This carefully designed five-year program has started. Already it has generated an enthusiastic response from classroom teachers and school administrators. A request for proposals for curriculum development for the Michigan program resulted in essays from teachers that affirmed the need for such a curriculum. "As our world becomes more interrelated, we are also being isolated in a new sense. Many people no longer depend on their community, neighbors, or even their families to help sustain life. Computers can even allow them to avoid human interaction completely. Children often are not given opportunities to socialize; adults seem to spend more time with machines than with people". Fourth-Grade Rural School Teacher "For a child to feel a sense of worth, he or she must feel that he belongs and that his existence is meaningful. And just as family provides the framework from which that sense of worth develops, the child's formal education should include an understanding of the rights and responsibilities of individuals to the greater Fourth-Grade Suburban School Teacher whole ofsociety." "What greater purpose does a middle school have than to help a child in transition find himself ..have that powerful realization: someone needs me to help. We have a responsibility to provide opportunities that allow students to feel needed in the larger community so they don't develop a sense of self in a Middle School Teacher vacuum." "We're living in a society where money has more power than God; where human life is worth less than someone's jacket. We must teach our children about tolerance, unselfishness, and about giving. We need to teach them that sometimes we need to compromise or give up something that would be good for us as an individual so that what we're choosing instead is good for all." High School Teacher The 46 teachers selected to participate (sixteen are volunteering during their own time) have already attended two orientation meetings. They are currently reading a series of background materials on the third sector and civil society, character education and altruistic behavior as it relates to developmental psychology, minority voices in philanthropy, curriculum development, and experiential and service learning. The educators are scheduled to work with a number of national experts on test design and student assessment; computers and technology for curriculum development and testing, evaluation, educational research; and guidance on writing the curriculum to be in concert with state and national core curriculum standards for social studies. C:\My Document.<;\KAIK-12GEN\FUNDRAIS\Packard\Case Statement & Commonly Asked Questions.doc �54 The project will convene leading national scholars, teachers, and youth to discuss an intellectual framework for the curriculum. This will culminate in the publication of a series of papers organized into three sections: the current scholarly thinking on key topics related to teaching philanthropy; discussions regarding how these ideas might be applied in classrooms and for differing ages of children; and the responses of young people regarding their perspectives on the topics. During the fall semester of 1997, thirty of the teachers will spend 50% of their professional time developing the modules and materials for piloting in their classrooms in the spring. As noted above, sixteen of the teachers will be developing the curriculum modules as volunteers on their own time. Over the subsequent summer, the materials will be revised for field testing in September, 1998 in different classrooms within each teacher's school. After another round of revisions, the modules and materials will be ready for dissemination. During this process, a National Content Advisory Committee will be available to the teachers. Educators from selected nations will be included via Internet as peer reviewers, to offer international examples, and to begin the process of international dissemination. Educational leaders attending the 1997 Salzburg Seminar on education from almost 30 nations have already expressed an interest in participating. The sustaining support for the project is on two levels. First, the modules will be offered in a way that allows them to be easily infused into the current curriculum strategy of almost any school. The diversity in the modules, the careful development of units with specific and validated assessment strategies, and the identified links to the core curriculum help to assure this infusion. Second, a series of weeklong training institutes for teachers will be held nationally and, perhaps, internationally. Tuition and special support for the teachers will provide the income to sustain the project. How The Project Will Be Developed And Implemented The project is complex, with several strategies in each phase: development, assessment, piloting and field testing, content development, teaching process, evaluation, and dissemination. A brief description of each strategy follows: A teacher based and grassroots effort which increases authenticity The curriculum modules, student assessment tools, and teaching materials are being written, piloted, field tested, and disseminated by forty-six active and creative teachers from classrooms in private, public, rural, suburban, and urban school districts throughout Michigan. The schools and the teachers involved represent the major ethnic and racial groups in society. C:\My Documents\KAIK-12GEN\FUNDRAIS\Packard\Case Statement & Commonly Asked Questions.doc �- -----~~--~----------- - ---···--------~--~~---------------------- - - - -- - -- · · - · - - --- · - - · - · 55 Quality curriculum infused into the academic content courses These will not be "add-on" units in "stand alone" boxes. The modules and materials will be written to assist schools in meeting the national and state proposed core academic standards and benchmarks in social studies and language arts. Even though these standards and benchmarks have not been officially adopted nationally or in most states, schools are already rewriting their classroom expectations in order to fulfill the requirements of the standards in anticipation of their acceptance. The State of Michigan is one of the voluntary leaders of this effort. Validated assessment questions and strategies suitable for standardized testing will be developed by the teachers, rather than imposed from another authority. Teach both about philanthropy (academic content) and philanthropy (personal commitment) Service learning and other experiential teaching methods will be required in the units in order to provide authentic educational experiences for children. Infused into the normal curriculum already in place in schools will be information on the philanthropic sector as expressed in the academic content areas of history, economics, psychology, sociology, and political theory. Utilization of computer technology for communication on many levels The teacher, project staff, specialized consultants, evaluators, specialized research centers, national content advisors, like minded organizations, and international peer review educators will be linked through computers. The technology will be used in order to facilitate communication, research, to overcome the geographic boundaries internationally, to document progress and the lessons learned, and to link classrooms for student interaction. Access to all material bv all educators without copyright concerns All educational materials will be provided to educators on a website without cost. Printed materials created in the project may be duplicated without copyright concern. The only copyright language that will be placed on the products of the project will assure these freely developed materials are not taken and sold for profit by others. Local advisory committees with ties to state and national networks Each school involved in writing teaching modules will have a local committee composed of the community foundation, volunteer center, United Way, business leaders, and others. These committees begin to form network and local voices for the infusion of the philanthropy content into the school courses. In communities C:\My Documents\KA\K-12GEN\FUNDRAIS\Packard\Case Statement & Commonly Asked Questions. doc ·- ... ···-···· . ........... �56 with schools of education, a faculty representative will be asked to serve on the committee. This is a vehicle for introducing pre-service teacher education faculty to this area of interest. Colleges of education involvement Each of the major public colleges of education in Michigan will be involved in some component of the project. This will lead to research and writing about the philanthropy curriculum as it develops, and will result in changes in practice for the training of teachers. University faculty members have expressed their interest in this project, both related to the content and the use of the computer technology as a curriculum development tool. Multiple dimensions, networks, and strategies for dissemination Ongoing publication in educational, philanthropic, and volunteer newsletters, academic and professional journals and the popular press lays a groundwork for disseminating the completed teaching modules and materials. Ongoing state and national presentations within the many networks supporting the project will be pursued. No formal organization should need to exist after the development of the modules and materials; these professional residential institutes would generate enough revenue from participants and sponsors to carry the program forward for as long as there was a legitimate need. Multiple evaluation strategies and assessment There are four major evaluation components, formative, surnrnative, student assessment, and longitudinal. The formative evaluation will be an action research model with a "shell" ofkey questions developed. The W.K. Kellogg Foundation grant has a required set of evaluation questions. A joint research team from Michigan State University and Indiana University will build the shell, monitor the collection of data, and work with the key stakeholders on capturing the lessons learned. Student assessment occurs at several levels. First the teachers will have tools within the modules that will help them evaluate what the students have learned. Second, the schools will have some comparative information to evaluate student progress in their own schools between classes. Third, the project intends to work with the Michigan Department of Education to pursue the inclusion of some key questions within the current Michigan Educational Assessment Program (MEAP) and the High School Proficiency Test. These statewide, standardized tests provide information to schools on their students' achievement and the results have some financial ramifications for schools. Finally, the assessment will be linked to the Michigan (and therefore the national) Core Academic Standards for Social C:\My Documents\KA\K- 12GEN\FUNDRAIS\Packard\Case Statement & Commonly Asked Questions. doc �57 Studies and the Core Democratic Values formally adopted by the Michigan Board of Education and the legislature. Bias toward collaboration CMF believes in harnessing the power of networks and in the advantages of synergy among groups. This is demonstrated in almost all of the work completed by CMF. In the K-12 Project, the Steering Committee represents a hub of strong, independent, large, and influential organizations that are committed to assisting this project to succeed. The K-12 Project works in tandem with a companion project in Indiana funded by the Lilly Endowment and led by the Indiana Humanities Council. The K-12 Education in Philanthropy Project is launched. The base is strong and stable. Another $2.3 million is needed to support the enthusiastic efforts of the classroom teachers, the steering committee, and the related programs to bring this project to scale.

J9123197 5:10PM �59 October 27, 1997 Memo to: Board of Trustees From: Dorothy A. Johnson Re: President's Report Since we last met in June at Yarrow Lodge, in Augusta, and had the very successful reception at Don and Ann Parfet's home for more than 125 members and friends, CMF volunteers and staff have been busy putting our plan of work into action. The following summary highlights major activities and accomplishments, and additional information can be provided on each subject. I. Conferences & Meetings Youth Leadership Conference More than 280 youth representing 5 community foundation youth advisory committees gathered for the 6th annual three-day Youth Leadership Conference at Camp Miniwanca in late July. The theme for the Conference was "Philanthropy- Fun to Say, Cool to Do." The largest attendance ever was due in part to the enthusiasm of our recruiter - Mawby Fund for Kids Intern, Philip Wahtola. Institute for New Staff and Trustees 85 staff and trustees from all types of foundations and corporate giving programs gathered at the Dearborn Inn in August for the two day Institute. Dinner was hosted by Steve Hemp, Director of the Greenfield Village- Henry Ford Museum. With the largest attendance ever, we may have to consider making the Institute an annual event. Literature and the Professions With support from the Frey Foundation and the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, more than 40 foundation trustees and staff gathered for two days of seminars with Professor Sandy Lottor, around the theme "Making Difficult Decisions." We were pleased with the attendance because this is the first year that a fee was charged for the seminar. Because ofthe continued enthusiastic feedback from participants, plans are underway to continue this important learning activity. Community Foundation Trustee Phone Conferences This fall we are trying out a series of six evening phone conference calls for trustees of community foundations. Maureen Robinson, lead trainer for the National Center for Nonprofit Boards, is facilitating the calls that deal with basic board responsibilities, fund development, and board recruitment. Lasting one hour, a trustee dials into the fax on demand system for the study guide, and then calls a 1-800 number to be connected to the call. CMF staff is part of each call. �60 Corporate Workshop "Measuring the Value of Corporate Citizenship" was the theme of a September workshop for 25 corporate grantmakers featuring consultant John Coy. One of the benefits for CMF from this Workshop, was a new member. The Annual Michigan Corporate Grantmakers Workshop, co-sponsored with the Detroit Chamber of Commerce, is now being planned for mid-February. Detroit Area Grantmakers Nine sessions are offered for 1997-98, focusing on issues such as the Detroit Tricentennial in 2001, low-income public housing, planned giving, faith-based community development and the impact of casinos. The series began September 9 with a presentation on an innovative transportation system for Detroit's empowerment zone and runs through May 12, 1998, concluding with nonprofit mergers. Steve Nedwicki, Comerica Bank is committee chair, and Elizabeth Sullivan of the Kresge Foundation is vice chair. The September and October meetings were well received with over 40 attendees each session. Michigan Women In Philanthropy Interest Group An October Lansing Seminar, co-chaired by Brenda Hunt of the Battle Creek Community Foundation, and Maureen Smyth of the C. S. Mott Foundation, focused on "Women & Welfare- Who Cares for the Children, What A Community Can Do". Thirty five participants heard from a diversity of speakers, including Pat Sorenson of Michigan' s Children, presenting a status report on Women and Children in Michigan. Great Lakes Community Foundation Environmental Collaborative At the same time that our November 5 Board Meeting begins, representatives from the 21 shoreline community foundations - 11 in Michigan - will be meeting for their second annual conference. This one-day meeting will feature a seminar on land use planning and a fund development workshop led by Diana Newman, of Columbus Ohio. II. Information Services An average of 1,000 requests are being handled each month, ranging from library and resource materials, to basic information requests. A collection of resources for the K-12 project has been developed and is being maintained at the K-12 project office with the Muskegon Intermediate School District. In addition, a core collection of family foundation resources has been placed with Susan Howbert in the new Detroit office. �----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------, 61 Internet • Our Website has been visited 5,000 times. Software has been purchased and installed with our Internet Service provider to make our library and resource file databases available on the Website by January 1. • With the help of a staff person from Grand Valley State University, a new Website was developed this summer for the Michigan Community Foundations ' Youth project. A "real-time chat room" for YACers and YAC "alums" will be in operation by January. • CMF now operates and maintains four listservs for special interest groups: First Pearl users, all program officers, community foundation program officers, and the 21 members of the Great Lakes Community Foundation Environmental Collaborative. III. Publications In addition to the monthly Memo to Members, the quarterly Michigan Scene, and the Annual Report, the following works have been presented: For the Benefit ofAll More than 250 prepublication orders have been received for this special book on the history of Michigan philanthropy, written by Ms. Sandy Fugate and edited by Dr. Joel J. Orosz. Our special thanks to theW. K. Kellogg Foundation for underwriting the cost of this book, and allowing all proceeds from the sale to go to CMF ' s Mawby Fund to Increase Philanthropy. Making A Difference: Working Together for Michigan's Future This new publication, supported by the Mott Foundation, features more than 125 grants submitted by our members, addressing nine basic categories of interest, ranging from the arts - to youth. It will be distributed at the Annual Conference, to our state and federal policy makers, and will be placed on the Internet. Family Fax- The Next Generation of Family Members Staffing Their Family's Foundation This issue highlights an article prepared by Deborah Brody, director of the Support Center for New Health Foundations at Grantmakers in Health, and former COF staff member. Copies were distributed to a target group of 400-plus non-member family foundations. �62 Ways Your Family Foundation Can Grow and Thrive Prepared by Linda Patterson with support from the Frey Foundation, this booklet describes the issues that confront a family in the developmental stages of its family foundation. Businesses Partnering with Community Foundations: Options for Planning Written by Vickie Langkam, Executive Director of the Pharmacia & Upjohn Foundation, this publication offers several useful examples to both community foundations and corporations, of how partnering with community foundations can be beneficial to both parties. The Michigan Foundation Directory, 1Oth Edition The sales of the Michigan Foundation Directory are on schedule with 2112 copies sold. Publications Catalogue This highlights the more than 50 publications available both for sale, and on a complimentary basis. In addition, it should be noted that we no longer have copies of Establishing A Charitable Foundation in Michigan - Edition Two, so Duane Tamacki is now working on the third edition. IV. Partnerships Launch for America's Promise This October 20 Lansing conference "kicked-off' Michigan's follow up to last April's Presidential Summit on Volunteerism. Many of our members were present and a panel of community foundation youth advisory committee members ("YAC-ers"), organized by our staff, did a great job of discussing how their grantmaking is supporting the five goals from the Summit. Council on Foundations Annual Community Foundation Conference & Michigan Evening More than 80 representatives of Michigan's community foundations had a great evening and an architectural tour of downtown Chicago by boat. In addition, our staff were involved in leading three breakfast roundtable discussions for more than 40 community foundations. Discussion topics ranged from rural community foundations, to youth as grantmakers, and to environmental grantmaking. Grantseeking Seminars CMF continues to "partner" where appropriate, in conducting workshops for grantseekers. Staff have led six workshops to date, for more than 275 grantseekers with partners such as the Direction Center, Congressman Ding ell's office, and the Southfield Community Foundation. �63 Forum of RAGs' Evaluation Meeting Jeri Fischer represented CMF in a two-day meeting of the Forum of RAGs designed to develop evaluation practices that RAGs can use to better measure their effectiveness in serving members. We will keep you posted on the tools that develop from this meeting. National Civic League 103rd Annual Conference Staff participated in this Conference on The Role ofPhilanthropy in Building Community, co-sponored by the Forum of RAGs. v. International We are receiving increasing requests for assistance from overseas. Special highlights include: Europe CMF and members hosted guests from Italy, Poland, and the European Foundation Center in Brussels, this summer - all seeking assistance in how to best develop community foundations and "community philanthropy" - as it is being called in Eastern Europe. Our Community Foundation Primer i~ being translated into Polish. Canada Rob Collier and Kari Pardoe and Ranjit Das (both members of the State Youth Board) conducted two days of training for 12 community foundations from throughout British Columbia. Their host, the Vancouver Foundation, is now designing a challenge grant program, for launch in 1998 to help each ofthe community foundations in the Province develop a youth advisory committee. On the same trip, our team did a Members' Briefing for 12 members ofthe Pacific Northwest Grantmakers Forum. The Philippines Most recently, in mid-October, CMF staff hosted a guest from the Philippines, sponsored by IYF. i:ewp:committee/brdtrstees/97-novpr � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

MCFYP is funded by the W.K. Kellogg Foundation and provides challenge grants, technical assistance, leadership training, mini-grants, and conferences to Michigan community foundations and their Youth Advisory Committees. MCFYP supports youth_ as resources and decision-makers in their communities and establishes important statewide ties to volunteerism, philanthropy and service-learning. Overview The W.K. Kellogg Foundation has granted $60.7 million to Michigan community foundations through the Council of Michigan Foundations over five grant periods: $2 million 1988-1991 1991-1996 $35 million 1996-2000 $12 million $10 million * 1997-1998 1998-2000 $ 1.7 million* * Grants Received Fall 1997 A total of $4 7 million has been awarded in challenge grants to Michigan community foundations. The Charles Stewart Mott Foundation provided a companion grant to support technical assistance to Michigan's community foundations from 1988-1995. The MCFYP and the CMF's 56 member community foundations (and their 39 affiliates) are pleased to report that the project continues to stimulate positive change in the longterm structure of local philanthropy in our state. Geographic Service During 1997 substantial progress has continued in extending community foundation service to an additional 9 counties. With the Midland Foundation's decision this month to serve Gladwin County, all 83 counties are now served bv a community foundation. �44 Organizational Strength The viability of community foundations to serve their communities is measured by asset size, grantmaking dollars, and management capacity. These indicators show rapid growth. Responding to the Kellogg Youth challenge, audited community foundation assets have grown by 19.1% from $725,449,270 in 1995 to $864,243,336 in 1996. Audited grantmaking has increased by 14.2% from $34,524,367 to $39,443 ,413 . Staffing has grown from 136 to 141 professional staff with three community foundations adding their first staff members this year. At the same time it is important to consider that at the time of the Annual Conference only 13 ofthe 56 community foundations will each exceed $10 million in assets. Technical Assistance The technical assistance, provided with funds from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, is critical to sustaining this growing group of community foundations. Twenty-eight publications have been written and updated for the community foundation field. Thirtysix training sessions have been held with over 1200 attendees. Twenty-four legal questions have been answered for eight community foundations. One hundred forty-one on-site consultations have been completed. Mini-grants totaling $46,355 have been given to 19 community foundations and 12 geographic component funds. In 1998, MCFYP will be launching a three year Enhanced Technical Assistance Program made possible by the recent $1.7 million grant from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation. This Program will have four components: mentoring, planned giving, investment advisory services, and software development and maintenance. The goal is to help speed the asset development of the community foundations with less than $1 0 million in assets. Dorothy Reynolds, retiring president of the Community Foundation of Greater Flint, will be joining the CMF staff as a part-time consultant to lead the mentoring service. Youth Project There are now 73 community foundations and affiliates with active youth committees involving more than 1,400 young people in philanthropy. Eighteen community foundations have raised the full match providing the young people in each community with the interest on $1 million for grantmaking for programs for youth. Youth committees have now made over $2.8 million for 1,663 grants for local youth needs. 1997 MCFYP Summer Youth Leadership Camp More than 260 members of 55 community foundation Youth Advisory Committees met at Camp Miniwanca in Shelby for two days of interactive leadership experiences. Nationally known speaker Laurie Stewart started activities with an inspiring message entitled "Being Real, Being Respectful, Being You". While new YAC members participated in interactive experiences ranging from "tying webs" to the "Theater of �-----------------------------~~--~------~-~--- - - -- 45 Life," experienced YACers dealt with "world games." More than 45 adult advisors received specialized training in risk management, and participated with the leaders in training in "leadership styles and decision-making skills." Fifteen YAC alumni served as primary group leaders for camp. The theme for the Camp was "Philanthropy- Fun to Say, Cool To Do." The best attendance ever was due in large part to the enthusiasm of our full time Mawby Fund for Kids Intern and Hillsdale Community Foundation YAC alum Philip Wahtola. MCFYP Web Site Introduced at Camo Jeanie Ringelberg, a YAC alum from Grand Haven and part time Mawby summer intern introduced the new MCFYP Web Site at www.novagate.com/~mcfyp. It features a chat room for YACers to gather and network via the latest on the information superhighway. L 1997 MCFYP!Pistons Community Service Awards A special highlight of camp was the presentation of the MCFYP State Youth Board/Detroit Pistons Community Service Awards. MCFYP trustee and director of The Pistons-Palace Foundation, Rex Nelson, joined members of the State Youth Advisory Board in recognizing four YACs for community service: Kalamazoo Foundation/Youth United Way, Marquette Community Foundation, Midland Foundation, and St. Ignace Area Community Fund. The Ann Arbor Area Community Foundation YAC and the Cadillac Area Community Foundation YAC were recognized for proactive grantmaking. Outstanding program coordinator awards were-presented to Mary Lou Boughton from Kalamazoo, Gina Bovee from Fremont, and Ardath McCall from Hillsdale. Two delegates from each of the six YACs along with the three advisors will be recognized at the Opening Reception of the Annual Conference being hosted by the Pistons. YAC New Member Regional Trainings More than 200 new YACers and advisors participated in regional trainings on October 6,7,8,9, & 11 in the Jackson, Fremont, Petoskey, Flint, and Marquette areas. Attendance for this one-day interactive and fun training, led by Youth Project Consultant Marv King, exceeded our expectations. YAC Advisor Conference Calls More than 30 advisors have participated in one hour conference calls held in September and October by Marv King for advisors, volunteers, and program staff involved with YACs to discuss issues and review sections from our training manual. 1997 Partnership for National Service. Service As Strategy Grants Awarded Nine matching grants of up to $1,000 each from the Partnership for National ServiceService as Strategy Initiative were awarded by the State Youth Board that serves as proposal reviewers. The following community foundations were award recipients: Baraga, Capital Region, Fremont, Grand Traverse, Marquette, Mt. Pleasant, Muskegon County, Sault Ste. Marie, and Southeast Michigan. Additional grant applications will be awarded by the State Youth Board at its November 5 meeting. ---------- -- -- -- �46 Upper Peninsula The Gogebic Community Fund and the Les Cheneaux Community Fund in Cedarville are the latest affiliates to join the Upper Peninsula Community Foundation Alliance. There are now 8 independent community foundations and 11 affiliates in the U .P. A portion of the second W.K. Kellogg Foundation grant has been used to add staff to assist these fledgling efforts in the U .P. with both fund raising (in time to meet the Kellogg Youth Challenge) and organizational development. Specialized fund-development training is being provided by the Indiana Center on Philanthropy. The Kellogg Youth Initiative Partnership (KYIP), serving Marquette and Alger counties, continues to support the development of this U.P. wide infrastructure for philanthropy by assisting with specialized training for the staff and trustees of the Upper Peninsula community foundations, including scholarships to the Annual Conference. Computer Project While this special project has received W.K. Kellogg Foundation support not included in the funding for MCFYP, it builds upon the base that is in place as a result of MCFYP. "FIMS"- the Foundation Information Management System- software for Michigan's community foundations is an unparalleled effort in the community foundation field. The direct effects on improvement in operating the foundations plus the synergistic effects of networking the state promise to revolutionize the quality, quantity and sophistication of the service community foundations can provide to their communities. While FIMS is now working for 33 community foundations, it is not being installed due to its complexity in any community foundation which does not have a full time staff person and assets of at least $5 million. A simpler accounting and grant tracking system that will allow a community foundation to grow into FIMS will be piloted with several sites in 1998. Anne Stoll, CMF's computer consultant is now providing direct assistance to the Berrien County Community Foundation, and this service may be expanded in 1998 to other of the small foundations with FIMS. i:\dmerser\cmfbrd\suporcmt\97\projud.doc � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

The Project Committee with the help of our consultant from the Academy for Educational Development retained a national public relations firm, Porter Novelli of Washington and New York, to develop several test print campaigns that would address the first purpose. In the front packet you will find copies of the two ad campaigns that have been tested in the Muskegon and Flint areas in October. Accompanying the print ads has been an underwriters message on the local national p~blic radio stations drive time programs as well as a generic brochure about community foundations. While this test is being conducted, the Committee is working on three possible products that would be promoted through advisors to the wealthy (lawyers, accountants, financial planners, etc.). The three products deal with charitable gift annuities, donor advised funds, and IRA's. The Committee is excited about the tag line that has been developed by Porter NovelliYou Should See What You Can Do. Our hope is that this type of message can be used by community foundations throughout the state, bringing a consistency to the communication and marketing efforts. While the follow-up research to determine the effectiveness of the two campaigns is not completed at this time, we hope that enough information can be gathered to make a decision on using one of the campaigns for a statewide targeted communications effort in 1998. We are grateful to the C.S. Mott Foundation for providing the funding for this test effort. This is an important initiative for both Michigan as well as the community foundation field nationally. We will keep you posted as next steps are planned. i:rcollier/cmfbrd/pmup �--------------.. -~--·-··- -~-~~-~--------------------------- Maybe you learned to read here. Or drive a car.

You can have a say in how it is used, and you 'II receive tax and other financial advantages. You can even create a permanent fund named in honor of someone special to you.
