Johnson Bylaw Revisions l. Proposed: Change the bylaws, Article VI, Section 5, Board of Trustees Nomination and Election, to reflect fall annual conference date and consequent Annual Members Meeting. (See attached date changes commencing the nominating process July 15th instead of October 15th.) Reasoning : The 11th and 12th Annual Conferences have been held in the fall. The Board of Trustees has approved fall dates for the 13th - 15th Annual Confere nce. The Annual Members Meeting is held at the same time as the Annual Conference. The proposed change was not made until now, to allow a "test" of the fall date which appears to be a permanent part of CMF programming. Consideration was given to a generic form of "3, 2, and 1 months before," however specific dates will allow for clearer interpretation. If this bylaw revision is passed the current classes of trustees (1985, 1986 and 1987) would serve until the fall of each year in place of the spring. 2. Proposed: Change Article VII, Section 2 Fiscal Year and Annual Meeting to include June as a possible month for the Annual Meeting of the Board of Trustees. Reasoning: Currently the meeting is called to be in April or May. With the change in Conference dates board meetings are now in fall (November), winter (January, February) and spring. It would enhance CMF operations to have that meeting in June, allowing better spacing between meetings. TLJ/sh attachments �J..r.J J C:LE Vl. HOARD 0?

The Board of Trustees identified several reasons to do long range planning including -It assesses additional needs of Members -It identifies new opportunities and new resources -It allows CMF to explore realistic options -It provides for performance measurements beyond the annual measurements now made as part of the Plan of Work -It creates long-range action plans The Committee decided it was essential to attempt to draw as broadly as possible upon the experience and attitudes of CMF Members. Under the Committee's direction, a questionnaire was developed by the consulting firm employed to assist in the Strategic Planning effort, (Touche Ross & Company) and sent to all Members. In addition, representatives from Touche Ross & Company conducted interviews with CMF members who were selected by the Committee as representatives of various Member constituencies. At the June, 1984 Board of Trustees Meeting the Board approved the strategic direction of the organization as well as eleven specific goals. These goals, primarily in the service area, were adopted with the understanding that the level and quality of existing services and programming would continue. Task forces examined operating plans to meet each goal. The following report lists the goal and suggested methods to achieve the goal.

THESE WERE: AMONG ANNUAL GROWTH IN NUMBER OF MEMBERS GROWTH IN ASSETS OF MEMBERS REASONABLENESS OF CONTRIBUTION CATEGORIES MATCHING ENDOWED ORGANIZATION ASSET CATEGORIES WITH UNENDOWED ORGANIZATION ANNUAL GRANT CATEGORIES TIMING OF INCREASE EQUITABILITY FOR ALL MEMBERS THREE DIFFERENT APPROACHES TO INCREASING CONTRIBUTION WERE CONSIDERED. A MODEL WAS PREPARED TO TEST WHETHER OR NOT EACH APPROACH MET ANNUAL BUDGET PROJECTIONS REQUIRED TO ACCOMPLISH THE STRATEGIC PLAN. The strategic Planning Committee and Executive Committee recommend Scenario III, the specifics of which follow. �COUNCIL OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS STRATEGIC PLANNING MEMBER CONTRIBUTION INCREASE PLAN (CONTINUED) - ASSUMPTIONS USED IN THE MODEL ARE CONSERVATIVE AND DO NOT SHO W MEMBER COMPLIANCE WITH CONTRIBUTION INCREASES UNTIL THE 1987-1988 FISCAL YEAR. - GROWTH IN NUMBER OF MEMBERS, GROWTH OF MEMBER ASSETS AND TREATMENT OF CORPORATE MEMBERS ARE PROJECTED TO BE THE SAME UNDER EACH APPRO ACH . KEY ASSUMPTIONS ARE: MEMBERSHIP WILL INCREASE IN THE LESS THAN $200,000, $200,000 - $1 MI LLION, $1 - 5 MILLION AND $5 - 10 MILLION CATEGORIES AT A RATE OF 10 PERCE NT PER YEAR AS A RESULT OF THE MEMBERSHIP CAMPAIGN AND CMF EFFORTS TO STI MULATE NEW FOUNDATION/GIVING PROGRAM START-UPS. THIS IS APPROXIMATEL Y 12 NEW MEMBERS PER YEAR. SOME ATTRITION WILL OCCUR AS A REACTION TO INCREASING CONTRIBUTIO N. A FIVE PERCENT LOSS OF MEMBERSHIP IN THE ABOVE CATEGORIES IS PROJ ECT ED FOR 1986-1987. MEMBER FOUNDATIONS' ASSETS WILL GROW OVER TIME. THE MODEL ASS UME S THAT FOUNDATIONS WILL GRANT FIVE PERCENT OF ASSETS ANNUALLY AND WILL EARN AN EIGHT PERCENT ANNUAL RETURN. FIVE PERCENT OF MEMBER CONTRIBUTIONS WILL BE FORGIVEN ANNUALLY BECAUSE OF SOME ORGANIZATIONS' INABILITY TO PAY. �COUNCIL OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS STRATEGIC PLANNING MEMBER CONTRIBUTION INCREASE PLAN CONTRIBUTION CATEGORIES WILL NOT BE REVISED.

MORE SERVICES WILL BE PROVIDED TO SMALL FOUNDATIONS AND CORPORATE GIVING PROGRAMS. THEREFORE, CMF's COST TO SERVE THE ORGANIZATIONS IN THE SMALLER ASSET CATEGORIES IS GREATER. • LARGER FOUNDATIONS ARE ASSESSED A GREATER PERCENTAGE INCREASE BECAUSE THEY CURRENTLY CONTRIBUTE A VERY SMALL PERCENTAGE OF ANNUAL GRANTS TO CMF AND THEY HAVE A GREATER CAPABILITY TO PAY. �COUNCIL OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS STRATEGIC PLANNING MEMBER CONT~IBUTION INCREASE PLAN CONTINUED) - SCENARIO III IS THE RECOMMENDED CONTRIBUTION SCALE BECAUSE IT MOST EQ UITABLY INCREASES CONTRIBUTION. - THE RECOMMENDED IMPLEMENTATION OF THE CONTRIBUTION INCREASE IS AS FOLL OW S: ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE INCREASE IN CONTRIBUTION AND CORPORATE MEMBERS WILL BE MADE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. CHANGE IN STATUS OF MEMBERS WILL BE ENCOURAGED TO CONTRIBUTE AT THEIR NEW RATE FOR THE COMING FISCAL YEAR. OPTIONALLY, THEY MAY CONTRIBUTE AT HALF OF THE INC REASE FOR THE 1986-1987 FISCAL YEAR AND AT THE FULL NEW RATE BY THE 1987-1988 FISCAL YEAR. FULL COMPLIANCE WITH THE 1987-1988 FISCAL YEAR. NEW RATE STRUCTURE WILL BE EXPECTED FOR THE SUPPLEMENTAL CONTRIBUTIONS, MADE AS GRANTS, HAVE BEEN ARRANGED TO COVER SHORTFALLS IN MEETING PLAN IN 1985-1986 AND 1986-1987. - THE PLANNED INCREASE IN CONTRIBUTION WILL MEET THE STRATEGIC PLA N FUNDING REQUIREMENTS WITHOUT SUPPLEMENTAL CONTRIBUTION IN THE 1987-1988 AND 1988-1989 FISCAL YEARS. �SCENARIO Ill ENDOftEO ORGANIZATION ASSET Sl ZE Leo a Than $200 , 000 $200,000- $1 Ml Ilion $1-$5 MilliOn $11-$10 Million $10-$25 Mill i on $26 - $100 Ml I I I on $100- $300 Ml I I I on $300- $111111 Ml I I I on $1 Billion and Greater CURRENT UNENDOftED ORGANIZATION ANNUAL GRANT RANGE Lao a Than $10,000 $10,000 - $50 , 000 $50,000 - $260,000 $250,000 $500,000 $500,000 - $750,000 $750,000 -$5MIIIIon $5 - $15 Ml I I I on $115- $60 Ml I I I on Ovar $50 Million AVERAGE ANNUAL GRANT SIZE 10,000 30,000 150,000 3711,000 625,000 2,875,000 10 , 000,000 32,600,000 50 , 000,000 PROPOSED MEMBER PERCENT CONTRIB AVG GRANT 75 200 450 700 1 , 000 2,000 3,000 5,000 12,000 MEMBER PERCENT CONTRIB AVG GRANT PERCENT CONTRI B INCREASE o. 75 1211 1. 211 117. 0.117 0.30 o. 111 o. 111 0.07 0.03 0.02 0.02 soo 1 .oo 0.43 0.27 0.24 0.10 0.06 0 . 02 0.04 44" 43. 50"' 150. 117"' 110"' 117"' 0.24 1160 1,000 1, 600 3,000 15,000 8,000 20,000 O.SB so• �SC£HAAIO III I UHEO\W.

Johnson, ex-officio Re: Strategic Planning Committee Report and Recommendations The following report details operating plans for the eleven initiatives approved at the June 15, 1984 Board of Trustees meeting recommended by the Strategic Planning Committee: Section I Section II Section III Operating Plans Financial Plan Strategies, Assumptions & Cost Implications Revenue Sources & 1985-86 Revenue Analysis If you have any questions before the meeting please call me. GH/sh �COUNCIL OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS STRATEGIC PLAN - 1985-89 Strategic Planning Committee Recommendations to Board of Trustees Section I At the 1983 Members Meeting the Board of Trustees announced that a Strategic Planning Committee had been formed to provide for continued success of the organization by determining the basis for policy, planning and general resource allocation over the next four years. The Board of Trustees identified several reasons to do long range planning including -It assesses additional needs of Members -It identifies new opportunities and new resources -It allows CMF to explore realistic options -It provides for performance measurements beyond the annual measurements now made as part of the Plan of Work -It creates long-range action plans The Committee decided it was essential to attempt to draw as broadly as possible upon the experience and attitudes of CMF Members . Under the Committee's direction, a questionnaire was developed by the consulting firm employed to assist in the Strategic Planning effort, (Touche Ross & Company) and sent to all Members. Ninety-five Members (60%) completed the questionnaire, considered by the consultant to be an excellent response . In addition, representatives from Touche Ross & Company conducted interviews with seven CMF members who were selected by the Committee as representatives of various Member constituencies . At the June , 1984 Board of Trustees Meeting the Board approved the strategic direction of the organization as well as eleven specific goals. These goals, primarily in the service area, were adopted with the understanding that the level and quality of existing services and programming would continue. Following that meeting task forces examined operating plans to meet each goal . The following report lists the goal, suggested methods to achieve the goal and the cost implications as recommended by the Strategic Planning Committee. An operating budget for each year through 1989 and a discussion of the cost implications follows the goal section. �-2- Goal: To add a fifth purpose to the Council of Michigan Foundations statement of purpose: "To increase private and community foundation and corporate grantmaking resources in the state of Michigan" Suggested Methods: Private Foundations 1. Form committee of private foundation donors who would advise on how to proceed with project, seeking donor to chair the committee who would work with his/her peers. 2. Seek private foundation donor in each geographical area (using CMF Trustees and Members) who would provide leadership in their area. Such an individual might target likely prospects over a several year period. 3. Cooperate with Michigan Bar Association and Michigan Bankers Association as well as other associations to be identified to inform their members about the benefits and how to create a private foundation. Activities might include CMF course offering on the subject as part of Associations regular conference schedule. 4. Circulate "How to Create a Private Foundation" brochure throughout the state. Community Foundations 1. Assist local communities in formation of community foundation on request or assist in merger of two or more community foundations. 2. Because the state is fairly saturated with community foundations (other than the Upper Peninsula) the emphasis of this purpose would be on providing assistance to increase the resources available to each community f oundation. Corporate Grantmaking 1. Document existing corporate grantmaking activity in the state of Michigan. 2. Recruit business leaders of all size corporations to discuss with their peers the benefits of corporate giving. �-33. Showcase the "merit of corporate giving" in publications and business/association meetings in the state . 4. Work with Michigan State Chamber of Commerce and local Chambers to increase the number and size of corporate giving programs. 5. Establish a Committee of corporate representatives to advise on the project . Cost Implications : Human Resources Publications & Printing $5,000 $1 , 000 Goal: Launch an aggressive membership campa1gn Suggested Methods : Experience has proven that the most effective campaign is to have a current CMF Member make the membership request to a potential member, with all the supportive materials . Foundations 1. Establish personal contact with 100 largest Michigan foundations not belonging to CMF regarding membership using CMF trustees and current members. 2. Undertake campaign for foundations with assets of less than $1 million by mail, followed by personal contact by geographic area. 3. Seek professional advice on membership request letters to be sent along with CMF brochure. Corporations 1. Establish information sheet on why corporation should join CMF outlining CMF services to corporations. 2. Seek membership from the 100 largest corporation s in the state. 3. Ask CMF Member in key geographical areas to host meeting and/or luncheon to discuss CMF . 4. Include 200 largest Michian corporations on CMF mailing list. �-4Community Foundations 1. Contact in person five community foundations in the state not currently member (assets less than $200,000). Cost Implications: Human Resources Publications & Printing $3,000 $ 500 Goal: Expand services to corporate grantmakers Suggested Methods: Immediate Priority 1. Continue Annual Corporate workshop. 2. Prepare notebooks on corporate contributions management topics. The first might be Michigan Corporation emp loyee matching gift programs. 3. Plan timely forums on specific community needs for example Detroit ZOOi Proposition C; etc. 4. Develop Michigan-based standards for grantees of what is needed in grant proposal . Consider as Circumstances dictate 1. Capital Fund Drive Survey. 2. Membership surveys (state-wide) to determine who else has received a particular request. 3. Periodic reports on Michigan based non-profit organizations made by request of CMF Member. Explore feasibility of project, perhaps combining efforts with Greater Detroit Chamber of Commerce, Detroit Public Library, United Foundation and/or others. Project might include fact sheet on each non-profit organization which might include advance notice of major funding requests. 4. Explore grant proposal review service. Beyond-scope of current long-range plan 1. Presentation of joint funding possibilities. Cost Implications: Human Resources Publications & Printing $10,000 $ 1,000 �-5Goal: Expanded services to community foundations Suggested Methods : 1. Develop community foundation operating manual with sample forms in form which may be added to and amended . 2. Compile a list of available experts in fields of probable community foundation interest such as development, newsletter preparation, slide presentations and deferred giving arrangements . Update every six months . 3. In addition to Annual Conference and Winter School sessions sponsor workshops or speakers which would benefit community foundation members in areas of specialized training. 4. Expand commu nity foundation Memo t o Members and increase frequency as needed . 5. Expand community foundation visitations . Cost Implications : Human Resources Publications & Printing $4,000 $ 800 Goal: Expanded services to Trustees within current programming Suggested Methods : 1. Plan trustee workshop for annual conference . 2. Highlight current CMF programs a n d service s of particular interest to Trustees. 3. Continue CMF mailing service to interested Trustees . 4. Facilitate small group meetings of Trustees as interest dictates. Cost Implications: Support under current budget Goal: Services to unstaffed foundations should be emphasized Suggested Methods: 1. Unstaffed foundation Members be surveyed by mail, phone and on-site visit as feasible to ascertain specific requests . �-62. Aspects of all CMF services and seminars affecting unstaffed foundations will be emphasized. 3. Ascertain whether or not meetings of unstaffed foundations in prescribed geographic area would be useful. 4. Facilitate meetings between unstaffed foundations. 5. Consider ''Board meeting" visitation program. Cost Implications: Human Resources $3,000 Goal: Grantee Issues Continue cooperation with grantees as long as it is in CMF Member's best interest and does not commit much CMF time and resources. Suggested Methods: 1. Continue Michigan Bell Grantsmanship Seminar Series sponsored in cooperation with Michigan League for Human Services and local agencies. 2. Make information packets: Directory brochure, Survey, Proposal Process brochure, etc. available on request to public. 3. Publish Directory/Survey. 4. Explore feasibility of "Grantmaker's Public Meeting.'' Cost Implications: Support under current budget Goal: Current program services are to be continued and promotion for all services should be increased. Suggested Methods: 1. Recruit assistance in revising CMF brochure/annual report to highlight scope and variety of activity. 2. Consider development of promotion materials for all CMF audiences-- for example, CEO's, support staff, bankers, small unstaffed foundation truste es, etc. Cost Implications: Publications & Printing $125 �-7Goal: Establish "Advisory Cabinet" of retired CMF Board The Board of Trustees determined that the Advisory Cabinet should be established immediately to take advantage of the 12th Annual Conference. Seventeen Members have agreed to be on the first Cabinet, which will be announced at the Conference. Cost Implications: Support under current budget Goal: Consider suggested "standards of practice" Suggested Methods : l. The CMF Board of Trustees request a meeting with the Council on Foundations "Pr inciple s & Practices" Committee. 2. Board or designated committee prepare list of suggested standards of practice for review by the Board. Upon acceptance such standards will be presented to the membership. 3. Technical Assistance and packets of information on subjects covered in principles and practices will be part of CMF resource files. Cost Implications: Support under current budget Goal: Change name of Council . of Michigan Foundations as Board of Trustees considers timely. Suggested Method: 1. On-going - review by Board of Trustees. Discussion at CMF meetings and workshops as appropriate. Cost Implications: Support under current budget �Section II Financial Plan Strategies 1. Include all on-going, relevant CMF program initiatives within operational budget. Such activities would include all staff, materials, facilities and related costs for on-going Trustee approved program. For example -- staff, rent, telephone and publication expenses of The Michigan Scene . 2. Establish ''Special Projectn fund for those initiatives which are of a temporary nature and may be funded by one or more members. Such activities would include studies, such as that undertaken on the payout, legislative history, and office automation project . Financial Plan Assumptions 1. Administrative expenses will grow with inflation and small addition of direct expenses associated with increased membership per year. Increase shall amount to 10% for first year of plan and 6% thereafter. One full - time staff person shall be added during 1985-86. 2. Annual Conference fees shall cover all expenses plus a contribution to overhead expenses to be determined annually by the Board of Trustees. 3. Workshop/Seminar fees shall cover all direct costs. 4. Membership Contribution scale will be revised based on preliminary suggestions to be submitted at November 7, 1984 Board of Trustees meeting for discussion. �-2- Cost Implications OPERATING BUDGET Human Resources The Strategic Planning Committee considered to provide the human resources necessary to the recommended goals and methods including staff person with CMF Committees; volunteer loaned executive from CMF Member. three options implement an additional help and The Strategic Planning Committee recommends that an additional staff person be retained during 1985-86. Currently the CMF staff includes three full-time persons and a free-lance editor. If a staff person is retained there would be a shifting of responsibilities within the current staff, however the following new functions would be undertaken: -Expand services to corporate grantmakers (workshops~ manuals, special need forums) -Community Foundations (Assemble operating manual, identify technical resources) -Coordinate increased giving purposes (Work with donors, corporate CEO's, Associations) -Coordinate major membership drive (Personal contact with largest 100 corporations in state and 100 largest foundations not currently members; Mail campaign with local phone call followup for foundations less than $1 million) As usual~ CMF Committee would provide ideas, direction and receive timely progress reports. Cost Implications: Compensation & Benefits $25,000 Occupancy Currently CMF is housed in 600 square feet in an old firehouse presently used as a non-profit center. Annual rent is $2,000. Unfortunately there is no additional space in the building and CMF is extremely cramped for file space (one staff member in 9 x 9 room with copier; five files 7 etc.) As part of the Strategic Plan it is wise for CMF to plan to increase its space to 1,000 1,200 square feet. (Discussions are currently underway with two local CMF Members to consolidate space~ but the specifics are not known at this time.) Cost Implications: $4,000 �-3Publications & Printing The operating buaget is based on the assumption that The Michigan Scene will no longer be a specialized project, but part of CMF's operating budget, a Information Systems Committee recommendation. The cost is budgeted at $12,000 ($6,000-printing; $6,000 free-lance editor). Other printing would be in association with CMF projects: CMF Annual Report; resource material; workbooks. CMF is extremely fortunate ' to have the assistance ' of Robert E. Hencey, Director of Communications, W.K. Kellogg Foundation, who has designed conference materials and miscellaneous brochures in recent years. Ideally this will continue, but if this volunteer talent is not available, costs will increase substantially. Cost Implications: TMS Other $12,000 $ 3,425 (over 2 years) SPECIAL PROJECTS Computer/Word Processing CMF has engaged Price Waterhouse to assess computer/word processing needs of the organization and to recommend appropriate software. Such equipment is needed for numerous functions -- directory, statistics, survey, accounting, membership records, etc. as has been and will be delineated. Until the Price Waterhouse report is received the exact costs will not be known but for planning purposes $20,000 will include equipment, software and assistance in loading data. $20,000 Cost Implications: Information It is anticipated that the Michigan Bell Grantsmanship Seminar Series will continue. Like all special projects, it will only be undertaken on approval of the Board. Cost Implications: 1985-86 $10,000 �Section III Revenue Potential A. Increase Membership The Strategic Planning Committee recommends an aggressive membership campaign be undertaken·· during 1985-86 . New member revenues in recent years have amounted to $3,000-$4,000 annually. The Committee has reviewed potential members lists from foundations, corporations and banks and ascertains a level of $5,000-$6,000 for each of the next four years . B. Adjust Contribution Scale The major source of revenue will come from an adjustment in the contribution scale. Two preliminary scales will be introduced at the Board of Trustees meeting for discussion which will include the following factors: -Major change for corporate giving programs (currently $225]year to reflect major increase in corporate services) -Major change for banks (currently $225/year reflecting their corporate interest in giving - Continued small fee for small foundations to gain their interest and commitment - Continue to base schedule on reasonable % of grants weighted by size of foundation -Comparison of other grantmaking associations -Value of CMF purposes and services C. Solicit Additional Contributions In recent years more than 20 Members have made additional contributions ranging in size from $50 - $4,000 . It is anticipated that this practice will continue in light of Member)s commitment to the purposes of the organization. �-2- D. Special Purpose Grants Contributions ~ill be sought for board approved projects of short duration which will not reoccur. Note: A use of all four strategies is in order. The Council on Foundations supports a $4.2 million budget with use of membership contributions, Program Development Fund and special project fund drives. Independent Sector uses membership contributions and special project fund drives. Other Regional Associations also use a package approach with the large foundarions and corporations taking a proportionate share of the load recognizing their commitment to the field of philanthropy. �1985-86 Revenue Needs Analysis $54,620 in additional revenue must be received in 198586 over that budgeted/received in 1984 -85 if the Strategic Planning Committee recommendations are to be implemented. Expense Summary Occupancy (Change necessary with or without provisions of Strategic Plan) $ 4,000 The Michigan Scene (TMS approved by Board of Trustees to become part of operating budget) $12,000 Additional Staff Person and Benefits Corporate Initiative Membership Campaign Initiative Community Foundations Initiative Unstaffed Foundations Initiative $25,000 Publications & Printing (to be expended over two years) $ 3,425 New Grantmakers Materials Membership Materials Corporate Materials Community Foundation Materials Promotion Materials $1,000 $ 500 $1,000 .$ $ BOO 125 Annual Increase for projects & Inflation Total $10,195 $54,620 Potential Revenue Summary $ 6,000 $33,620 $15,000 Increase Membership Adjust Scale Additional Contributions Total $54,620 �Council of Michigan Foundations Strategic Planning Oudget Projections 1985-1989 REVENUE 1983-84 Actual Operat~ng Member Contributions Add~tional Contributions Interest Miscellaneous Conference Revenue Small Conference Revenue Publicatio n Sales Total Operat~ng Revenue TOTAL REVENUE Plan------------------------------------1985-86 19H6-87 1987-88 1988-89 90 ,000 14,030 2,500 400 37,000 3 ,000 6,000 152,930 $158,650 ~168,950 $179,750 $191,800 3 , 000 500 45 ,000 5,500 6,000 218 ,650 3,500 600 47,000 7,500 15,000 242,550 3,700 650 49,000 8,000 10,000 251,100 4,000 700 51,000 9,000 7,000 263,500 22,065 24 , 700 29,025 75,790 21,730 10,000 15,000 46,730 10,000 20,000 10,000 10,000 12,000 30 ,0 00 10,000 10,000 12,000 243,923 199,660 248,650 252,550 261,100 275,500 73 , 668 1,980 1,842 35,622 4 , 987 14,292 22 , 253 154 , 644 81,650 2,000 2,775 32,000 3,000 6,000 25,505 152,930 114,650 6 ,0 00 17,000 40,000 5,500 6,000 29,500 218,650 121,600 6,000 17,000 41,000 · 6,500 15 , 000 32,450 239,550 128,900 6,000 17,500 42,000 7,000 10,000 35,700 247,100 137,000 6,500 18,000 43,000 7,500 7,000 39,500 258,500 21,666 25,390 28,790 75,846 21,730 10,000 15,000 46 ,730 10,000 20,000 10,000 10,000 12,000 30,000 10,000 10,000 12,000 3,000 4,000 5,000 252,550 261 , 100 275,500 $ 88,505 12,430 31212 858 43,934 5,07.6 14,168 16H,l33 Special Projects (Note 1) Project A Project B Project C Total Special Projects Revenue 1984-85 Oudgeted ~ DISBURSEMENTS Operating Salaries & Benefits Occupancy Publications & Printing Conference Expense Small Conference Expense Publication Costs Other Operating Expenses Total Operating Expenses Special Projects (Note 1) Project A Project B Project C Total Special Projects Expenses Contingency Fund Allocation TOTAL DISBURSEMENTS FOOTNOTES Note 1 - Special Projects Project A Project B Project C (Note 2 ) 230 , 490 199,660 248,650 1983-84 Actual 1984-85 Budgeted Information Legislative Sp .

James M. Richmond Government Relations Committee Chairman CMF Bo a rd Resolution on u.s. Treasury Department's Proposed Changes to Charitable Tax Deductions The Council of Michigan Foundations strongly urges the President and the U.S. Treasury Department to maintain current tax treatment of contributions by American citizens to charity. The Council is aware that the U.S. Treasury has recommended changes in charitable tax treatment which would result in a reduction of gifts to charit¥ of nearly $12 billion a yeai. These changes would mean a 27 percent drop in donations to higher education and similar drastic declines in support of the arts and culture, United Way agencies, health and religion. The result would be to severely cripple the ability of American's non-profit human services organizations and other charities to help deal with a wide range of social problems and needs within our society. The Treasury Department's recommendations are contrary to this Administration's call for volunteers and voluntary organizations to play a larger role in helping people solve human problems and provide for community needs. The recommended tax changes contradict the basic purpose of the charitable deduction which has been to foster private giving for public purposes. The record shows that the deduction of charitable gifts has provided a significant incentive for increased giving. The importance of this deduction has been recognized for almost seventy years, having been passed by Congress in 1917 to foster private giving for public purposes. The Council of Michigan Foundations, therefore, calls on the U.S. Treasury Department to withdraw the charitable contributions proposals. The Council also urges the President and Congress to e x ercise their influence in seeking withdrawal of the Treasury proposals which impact charitable contributions in society. Note: Nancy Feller of the Ford Foundation has agreed to represent CMF at the INDEPENDENT SECTOR conference on the charitable tax proposals scheduled for January 28/29 in Washington, D.C. Next meeting: CMF Government Relations Committee meeting Thur sday, May 9, 1985, Mott Foundation offices, Flint, Michigan.

Background: Price Waterhouse was engaged in December 1984 to assess CMF's office automation needs. Their expert in small office systems interviewed the CMF staff and observed office procedure in order to document CMF's requirements, details of which are ava·ilable. Request for proposals were sent to IBM, DEC and Wang. Upon their submission PW and the CMF staff met with the three vendors and software distributors to evaluate the proposed systems. Reference checks have been made and on-site visits will be made before order would be placed. Laura Davis, Assistant Vice President, W.K. Kellogg Foundation and Thomas W. Herbert, Vice President, Kresge Foundation assisted informally throughout the process. Budget: It is estimated that the total cost of equipment, software and implementation will be $65,000 as follows: Equipment - Wang Model # Description Purchase Price VS15-2WS 1MB Main Memory, 360KB 5 1/4 Diskette Drive, 16 port serial device controller, Operating System, Assembler, Wang modem for remote diagnostics, 76MB fixed disk, (2) 4230-VS 64K DP/WP Workstations $ 21,000 195-100A-9 Wang Word Processing 2,000 5577V 40/192 CPS Bidirectional Matrix Printer 5,975 2529V Four Track 6400BPI, 14MB Tape Cartridge 4,500 DSF-77 Dual Sheet Feeder with Trays 2,000 ET-1 Envelope Tray Installation 250 Included with Purchase Price Shipping 700 Insurance 480 �Model # Oeser i ption Purchase Price Cabeling/Supplies 1,000* Maintenance 2,868* Application Software 14,694 Training 1,525 Implementation (Loading) 4,000 Reserve for un ant i cip ated op p ortunitie s Total 4 , 008 $ 65,000 CMF would qualify for 5% discount, available for non-profit organizations. *Annual expense to be assumed in CMF operating budget in 1986-87 from savings on existing equipment (Burroughs Redactron and IBM typewriter non longer needed.

Davis, Assistant Vice President, W.K. Kellogg Foundation prepared the following analysis for the Executive Committee. She met with the committee on January 21 , 1985 to answer questions about the recommended project. M E M0 R A N D U M January 21, 1985 Advantages of a Wang VS System Versus a PC Network System WANG VS (Mini-Computer System) PC (Micro Computer Network) 1. Easier to understand and use. 1. Less sophisticated operating system requiring more operator training and technical assistance for fine tuning. 2. Proven operating system for a multi-user and multitasking system . 2. Networking capabilities with 2-3 workstations is a relatively new technology that will present some complications. 3. Flexibility and expandability of main memory, disk memory, workstations and printers. Easier to add more memory. 3. Limited main memory and disk memory capacity. 4. Growth potential much better and easier. 4. Cost for additional boards, cabling, and peripheral features are oftentimes hidden. 5. A mini-computer environment . 5. PCs were not designed and often lack the horsepower to become distributed processing systems. 6. More office automation software ~hich works toward a totally integrated word processing-data processing system. These functions are completely separate on a PC. 6. Required PC networking software (overhead) may detract from available memory and user response times. �7. Current and future system support (marketing, technical training, etc.) resides with one organization. 8. Enhanced system security and controls. 9. More processes requiring human intervention are ma naged by the operating system . 7. PCs require several support organizations based upon what hardware/software is purchased and from whom . Full s e cur ity f eatures (logon, password, file protect , record protect) may not be supported. 9. PC environment may require more user file (floppy disk) handling and human intervention. 10. Improved system performance (throughput) c·ompared to a PC configuration. 10. File recovery procedures may be more complicated. 11. PC capabilities can be added as a workstation option. 11. Some PC networks will not support shared modems . 12. Users may be restricted to certain applications while another person is on the system. If data files are sharable, timing of data entry and data integrity may be of concern . 13. Implementing equipment, features, and future capabilities will oftentimes require much more technical assistance . 14. More limited technical support from vendor. W. K. Kellogg Foundation Laura A.
