The termi- nation of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation or its members, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful. -16- �Section 2.

(1) To the extent that a Trustee, offi- cer, employee or agent of the corporation has been successful -17- �on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in Sections 1 or 2 of this Article, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorney's fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection therewith. (2) Any indemnification under Sections 1 or 2 of this Article (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the Trustee, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because he has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in said Section 1 and 2.

This exhibition is conceived as a celebration of the 600th anniversary of the birth of Donatello, one of Europe's greatest sculptors. Works by Donatello, his colleagues, contemporaries and successors will be assembled from museums and collections throughout Europe and the United States. The exhibition will bring together and present works by all the major fifteenth century sculptors who were active in and near Donatello's time, particularly in Tuscany, and to provide a reassessment of Italian sculpture of the period. Approximately 100 sculptures, drawings and other works of art have been committed for loan by leading museums and collections in Italy, Austria, Germany, France, England and the United States. This exhibition will be the first major international exhibition in America ever devoted to Italian sculpture in Donatello's time. In addition to sculptures by Donatello, works by the other principal Tuscan sculptors, such as Jacopo della Quercia, Nanni di Banco, Brunelleschi, Ghiberti, Nanni di Bartolo, Michelozzo, Luca della Robbia, Bellano, Bertoldo, Adriano Fiorentino, Antonio Rossellino, Desiderio, and Mino da Fiesole will be included. Disparate types of sculptures, such as the portrait bust, Madonna and Child groups, other religious sculpture, reliefs and medals will also be incorporated into the exhibition. The works displayed will focus on the period from about 1420 to about 1490. During this period, Florence was the leading center in Italy and the world for artistic production and patronage. The work of Donatello and his contemporaries provided high standards of achievement which artists of the next generations, including Raphael, Michelangelo, Bronzino and Bandinelli, could strive to emulate. The exhibition will also include works \:>y younger Quattrocento Italian sculptors in other Italian centers, as well as Florence. These works will demonstrate the range of problems and achievements represented in Italian early Renaissance art. �A scholarly catalogue will be written and educational programs for the exhibition such as films, slide packets, didactic panels, photomurals and brochures will discuss artistic interrelationships among Renaissance sculptors, architects, and painters; the training of the Renaissance artist; and the materials and working processes for making sculpture in the fifteenth century. These displays will be arranged to fascinate people of all ages and backgrounds by integrating technical and aesthetic information into one unified, educational program. From a scholarly standpoint, the exhibition will investigate areas hitherto not fully examined of Italian, and .particularly Tuscan, fifteenth-century sculptural styles, subjects, materials, and techniques. It will proceed from the art of Donatello, the greatest of the Quattrocento sculptors, to consider his colleagues, rivals and followers in the field of sculpture, among them Ghiberti, Luca della Robbia, Alberti, Francesco di Giorgio, Bertoldo, Rossellino, Desiderio, Mino, and Verrocchio. In addition, the exhibition will demonstrate the ri~hness and variety in Italian early Renaissance sculpture by presenting fiftee~th-century masterworks of the highest quality, never before shown in one exhibition. This will be a unique opportunity for comparison and analysis of sculptures by major Quattrocento masters, some of them well documented, others often problematic. It is hoped that the Internati~nal Congress of Art Historians, which will be held in Washington, D.C. during September, 1986, will be able to devote sessions to the analysis of new problems which ~ill come to light as. a result of this exhibition. �The National Gallery of Art and The Detroit Institute of Arts have two of the finest collections of Italian Renaissance sculptures in the world and are particularly familiar with organizing major international exhibitions of Italian art, such as North Italian Engravings, The Twilight of the Medici, and The Golden Age of Naples. By organizing Italian Renaissance Sculpture in the Time of Donatello, both institutions will be able to encourage other major European and American museums to participate in lending important sculptures to this exhibition. The many types of relief Madonnas by, attributed to, or influenced by Donatello have, for example, never before been gathered together for public appreciation and scholarly study. Moreover, as a result of r~cent research, a new examination of artistic style and chronology during the emergence of the Florentine Renaissance, with particular reference to Donatello C;lnd his influ~~ce, is planned for the exhibition. · This exhibition will be a major international show with a scholarly catalogue enlisting the services of the finest Renaissance scholars from Europe and America. Professor H.W. Janson, author of the classic monograph on Donatello, was actively involved with the organization of the exhibition from 1979 until his death in September, 1982. Professor Janson's ideas for revising his Donatello monograph, as well as those of other leading Renaissance scholars, will be incorporated into the relevant portions of the exhibition catalogue. This exhibition will aim at creating a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for citizens and visitors in America to enjoy masterpieces of Italian early Renaissance sculpture and for scholars to analyze both the impact of Donatello's work upon his time and the nature of contemporary approaches to sculpture that were different from his. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

COUNCIL OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS Legislative Statement Background In 1977 the Council of Michigan Foundations (CMF) Members directed the Board of Trustees to develop a public information program in support of Michigan foundation philanthropy and to institute a plan to communicate with public policy makers. A Conference Mandate (Government Relations) Committee was established for this purpose. The Government Relations Committee has surveyed the CMF Members on their legislative interests and priorities on a ti mely basis. There continues to be a concensus that this is the time for foundations to continue working to make themselves and their accomplishments known to Congress and other appropriate government representatives. In 1980 CMF launched a "Developing Good Will Program" to assist in this information effort. CMF has worked with Member foundations. the Council on Foundations and other Regional Associations tu bring about changes in the mandatory payout to a flat five percent. a reduction in the excise tax for private foundations and a ch a nge in the limitation on gifts to private foundations and several other provisions pertaining to private foundations contained in the 1984 tax bill. The CMF Board of Trustees approved the initial legislative statement on March 1. 1979. Revised statements were approved September 19. 1980. January 27. 1982 and May 10. 1983. ACTION NECESSARY- June 14. 1985 The Government Relations Committee presents the following analysis of the . current statement with proposed action for your consideration. Upon approval a revised legislative statement will be prepared. HIGH PRIORITY LEGISLATIVE ISSUES 1. Goal: Change the 20% limitation on gifts to a private foundation to 50%. �Explanation: Under existing law. the amount deductible by an individual taxpayer for contributions to non-operating private foundations cannot exceed 20% of the gifts of appreciated property or 30% or gifts of cash of the donor•s contribution base (which. in most cases. is his adjusted gross income). On the other hand. an individual taxpayer can deduct up to 50% of his contribution base for gifts to public charity . Recommendation: 2. No change in goal. acknowledge progress. Goal: Increase the deduction allowed a taxpayer to a private foundation on certain capital gain property. Explanation: Under existing law. individual taxpayers can make a gift of appreciated property of publicly traded stock if the gift is less than 10% of the outstanding stock of a company and receive a deduction for the full amount given. However in other cases the amoun t of the gift must be reduced by 40% of the amount of the appreciation if given to a non-operating private foundation. It should be pointed out that the same gift to a public charity entitles a taxpayer to a deduction for the full amount given. Recommendation: 3. Goal : Make the five year carry-forward on excess charitable contributions by individuals and corporations applicable to such contributions to non-operating private foundations. Explanation: Passed into law 1984. Recommendation: 4. Remove from statement. Goal: Establish a small grant rule. which would allow grants for charitable purposes of under $25.000 to be free of expenditure responsibility . Recommendation: 5. No change in goal. acknowledge progress. Retain Goal: Seek relief from the first level penalty tax for unwi llful or inadvertent mistakes. Some foundation manager s and advisors honestly make a mistake without malice- of-forethought. They are severely penalized and some lawyers suggest relief from the first level penalty . Explanation: In Secretary of the (except for self reasonable cause 1984 authority was granted for the Treasury to abate first-tier penalty taxes dealing) if the violation was due to and is corrected. �Recommendation: reasonable. 6 0 Goal: Remove from statement. 1984 response Place a limitation on who is a diaqualified person. Explanation: In 1984 a law was passed that lineal descendants of disqualified persons who are considered members of the individual's family and. ther~fore. disqualified persons. are limited to the individual's children. grandchildren and great-grandchildren and their spouses. The law further states that substantial contributors to a foundation will not retain that status if, over a 10 - year period, they made no further contributions to the foundation, do not manage it, and their total contributions are considered insignificant in light of subsequent growth in foundation assets. Recommendation: Acknowledge progess. however work towards having a disqualified person no longer so classified after grandchildren. 7. Goal: Pursue change of certain Internal Revenue Service regulations which pose hardships on public charities and jeopardize their fund-raising potentials. Of particular concern are the tipping regulations whereby a public charity may lose its public charity status because of a private foundation grant. Explanation: The Treasury has been directed to extend the advance ruling period during which qualifying new organizations are considered public charities to five years. and to amend its regulations to permit greater reliance on IRS classifications concerning new organizations during the first five years of their existence. Recommendation: Continue goal. in light of revised regulations which are now being considered by Treasury as presented by lawyer's group representing private foundations. 8. Goal: Maintain the private foundation payout rate at 5% as not to diminish the real value of a foundation's grantmaking capability. Recommendation: Add "at not more than 5% 11 �9. Goal: Support relaxation of the public support test for community foundations. Recommendation: Continue RECOMMENDED NEW HIGH PRIORITY LEGISLATIVE ISSUES 1. Goal: Support the creation of new foundations and the tax incentives which enhance the desirability of a donor to create a foundation. Explanation: This goal is a new and the fifth purpose of CMF. As plans for its implementation evolve other legislative priorities. not listed here. may evolve. The Council on Foundations is currently studying the birth and death rate of foundations in a joint study with the Yale Institute on Non-Profit Management. The results of this study will also be helpful in strategizing future legislation helpful to the creation of private foundations. Recommendation: 2. Goal: Monitor effect of .65% administrative cost provisions of 1984 law and take whatever action may be appropriate to propose new provisions relating to administrative expense rules. Recommendation: 3. Adopt Adopt Goal: Reduce excise tax to a flat 1%, instead of the complicated formula now used which allows in some c a ses for a reduction from 2% to 1%. Explanation: The 1984 tax act allows that the excise tax will be reduced from 2 to 1 percent if the foundation's payout for the year in question equals or exceeds an amount equal to the year's assets times the average payout percentage for the previous five years. plus one percent of the foundation's net investment income. Recommendation: Adopt OTHER LEGISLATIVE PRIORITIES 1. Goal: Allow private foundations to charge their investment expenses to their required payout amount for charitable purposes. �Recommendation: 2. Goal: Exclude from the formula used to compute the exc1se tax on private foundation net investment income any capital gain realized in the fiscal year in question. Recommendation: 3. Continue Continue Goal: Support the right of foundations seeking relief to the excess business holdings requirement which states that a private foundation formed after 1969 must divest of its excess business holdings within five years. Explanation: The 1984 tax act states that the IRS may extend the dive~titure period for a private foundation formed after 1969. if they show good faith in attempting to divest during the five years and file a divestiture. plan. Recommendation: 4. Accomplished Goal: Extend declaratory judgement procedure to various private foundation issues including set asides. individual grant programs and company scholarship programs. Presently there is no way to litigate. It is proposed to extend declaratory judgement procedures to issues which require advance IRS action. Recommendation: Continue CMF ACTIVITY 1. Regularly communicate with elected officials of federal. state and local levels about foundation activities and concerns. 2. Encourage member foundations to report grants and activities to government officials. 3. Establish mechanisms to assist Member foundations to report their grants. 4. Continue discussions with Michigan Attorney General's Office regarding community and private foundation concerns. 5. Support public reporting for foundations. beyond the reports required by law. and provide technical assistance for those foundations seeking to print an annual report or guidelines. Assist in distribution efforts. �Recommendation: Continue above activity as well as undertake the following tasks. - Encourage Members in each Congressional District to meet as a group with their legislator when he is in district to discuss the contribution of co mmunity and private foundations and corporate giving in his District. - Have a meeting of all CMF Legislative Coordi n a t ors at Annual Conference each year. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Kalleward Membership Services Committee The Membership Services Cornrni ttee met on May 29th at the Kalamazoo Foundation to review C.KF services for 84/85 and to discuss C.KF' s 1985-86 Plan of Work. Foundation Visitation Program Plans are underway for a Foundation Visitation August 21, 1985 to be held in Midland involving the Midland Foundation, Dow Foundation, Elsa U. Pardee Foundation, Rollin .K. Gerstacker Foundation, Charles J. Strosacker Foundation, Dow Chemical Company Foundation and Dow Corning Foundation. The Skillman Foundation has expressed an interest in hosting a visitation program in early 1986 and it is hoped a corporate visitation can be scheduled in southeast Michigan in the near future. Winter School Sessions for involving: 85/86 Winter School III will focus around topics Community Foundations Corporate Grantmaking, April 24, 1986 sponsored with Greater Detroit Chamber of Commerce Private Foundations Reading & Evaluating Grantee Financial Statements The Membership Services Cornrni ttee recommends that the name of the course be changed from Winter School to Spring School. Sessions will run from Karch through Kay. Detroit Area Grantmakers Leonard W. Smith, Chairman, Detroit Area Grantmakers reported that the luncheon series has been very successful and will continue in the 85/86 fiscal year. A planning committee will be developing a new schedule with sites and topics. �Standards of Practice The Membership Services Committee recommends that CMF not adopt formal "standards of practice," but INSTEAD circulate materials on good foundation practice. Further details would be available on "how to" achieve these practices. Examples might be preparing an annual report, personnel policies, recruiting trustees, and establishing guidelines. Other Services This summer CMF will sponsor a session for private foundation Members at the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation on the administrative cost provision, which takes affect with fiscal years beginning in 1985. CMF will convene Members responsible for recent "Audit Experience Panel" to compile written materials useful for all private foundations in hopes of circulating a generic version. A final decision on publication will be made after all the material is assembled. Eight new services are being developed per the Strategic Plan as follows: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8 Prepare notebooks on corporate contributions management topics. Develop community foundation operating manual with sample forms in format which may be added to and amended. Compile a list of consultants available to assist grantmakers on newsletter preparation, media, evaluation, and development. Consider board meeting visitation program whereby consenting grantmakers would invite guests to observe their board meeting. Survey unstaffed foundation members by mail, phone and on-site visit as to service requests. Facilitate meetings between unstaffed foundations. Consider "standards of practice" as requested by Members. Convene meeting of the Advisory Cabinet at 13th Annual Conference.

In 1984, foundations and corporations donated more than $9 billion for charitable causes and services including the arts, United Way, colleges and universities, libraries, and programs for the elderly and the needy. Today, foundations and corporations are being challenged to increase their support and charitable donations in the face of major cutbacks by local, state, and federal governments. In the face of this challenge, it is apparent that much can and should be done to encourage the creation and growth of new foundations and corporate giving programs. Unfortunately, the 1969 Tax Act, while introducing a number of reforms, also erected a number of major barriers to foundation philanthropy. These include provisions that serve as disincentives for the creation of new foundations, as well as provisions that discourage charitable donations to foundations. After more than 15 years of experience, it 1s also apparent that a number of Internal Revenue Service Code regulations, based on the 1969 Tax Act, have proven to be unnecessarily restrictive on the grantmaking effectiveness of Michigan's more than 800 foundations, as well as the more than 21,000 other foundations in communities across the United States. If foundations and corporations are to expand their support of important social needs and programs, the Council of Michigan Foundations must work actively to inform the general public, as well as state and federal legislators and other policymakers, on these important issues. It must seek support for legislative changes that encourage the role and effectiveness of foundation and corporate philanthropy. That is the purpose of the following Council of Michigan Foundations' Governmental Relations Program. Background: CMF Government Relations Program In 1977 the Council of Michigan Foundations (CMF) Members directed the Board of Trustees to develop a public information program that would support and �-2encourage Michigan foundation philanthropy. This program was to include a plan to communicate with public policymakers. A Conference Mandate (Government Relations) Committee was established to implement the program. Since then, the Government Relations Committee has surveyed CMF Members on their legislative interests and priorities on a timely basis. In 1980, CMF also launched a "Developing Good Will Program" to assist in this public information effort. CMF has worked with Member foundations, the Council on Foundations, and other regional associations of grantmakers to enhance the understanding of public policymakers about foundation philanthropy and to bring about appropriate legislative changes in laws and regulations. As a result of these efforts by CMF and others, the mandatory payout requirement has been lowered by Congress to a flat five percent of foundation assets and the excise tax on foundations has been reduced. Most recently, the 1984 Tax Bill relaxed limitations on gifts to private foundations. The CMF Board of Trustees approved the initial Legislative Statement on March 1, 1979. Revised statements were approved September 19, 1980; January 27, 1982; May 10, 1983; and June 14, 1985. High Priority Legislative Issues 1. Goal: Support the continuation and expansion of tax incentives for the creation of new foundations. Explanation: This goal is new, reflecting the fifth purpose of CMF -- to expand the practice of philanthropy. The national Council on Foundations is currently studying the birth and death rate of foundations in a joint study with the Yale University Institute on Non-Profit Management. The results of this study will be helpful in strategizing appropriate legislation. 2. Goal: Monitor effect of .65% of assets administrative cost provisions of 1984 law, and take whatever action may be appropriate to propose new provisions relating to administrative expense rules. Explanation: In meeting the m1n1mum payout requirement, private foundations may count administrative costs of up to only .65% of their assets. The private foundation may expend additional funds for administrative expenses, but that expense will not be included in the payout calculation. It is not known what impact this will have on the quality of grantmaking, or what hardships this will create with pass through foundations. These cases should be documented. �-3- 3. Goal: Reduce excise tax to a flat 1 percent instead of the present complicated formula which permits, in some cases, a reduction from 2 to 1 percent. Explanation: The 1984 Tax Act allows the excise tax to be reduced from 2 to 1 percent if a foundation's payout for the year in question equals or exceeds an amount equal to the year's assets, times the average payout percentage for the previous five years, plus 1 percent of the foundation's net investment income. 4. Goal: Maintain the private foundation payout rate at not more than S percent to protect the real value of foundations' grantmaking capability. Explanation: In order to preserve the "real" grantmaking capacity of a private foundation, it is important that inflation be taken into consideration. A portion of the annual return should be returned to the principal. S. Goal: Support relaxation of the public-support test for community foundations. Explanation: Community foundations must raise new money each year to meet the Internal Revenue Service's (IRS) 10 percent publicsupport test. In some instances raising 10 percent new money in a given year may not be possible, even though the community foundation is broadly representative of the public interest. 6. Goal: Change the limitation on gifts to a private foundation from 20 percent to SO .percent. Explanation: Under existing law, the amount deductible by an individual taxpayer for contributions to non-operating private foundations is computed as a percentage of the donor's contribution base (in most cases, his or her adjusted gross income). An individual may deduct only 20 percent of the gifts of appreciated property or 30 percent of gifts of cash. On the other hand, an individual taxpayer can deduct up to SO percent of his contribution base for gifts to public charity. 7. Goal: Increase the deduction allowed a taxpayer for a gift to a private foundation of certain capital gain property. Explanation: Under existing law, individual taxpayers may deduct the full amount of a gift of appreciated property in the form of publicly traded stock if the gift is less than 10% of the outstanding stock of a company. However, in other cases, the amount of the deduction must be reduced by 40 percent of the appreciation if the gift is to a non-operating private foundation. The same gift to a public charity entitles a taxpayer to a full deduction. �-4- 8. Goal: Pursue change of certain IRS regulations that pose hardships on public charities and jeopardize their fund-raising potential. Of particular concern are the "tipping" regulations whereby a public charity may lose its public charity status because of a private foundation grant. Explanation: The U.S. Treasury Department has been directed to extend up to five years the advance ruling period during which qualifying new organizations are considered public charities, and to permit greater reliance on IRS classifications for new organizations during the first five years of their existence. However, revised regulations have not yet been promulgated. 9. Goal: Establish a small grant rule, which would allow grants for charitable purposes of under $25 ,000 to be free of "expenditure res pons ib il i ty." Explanation: Currently, organizations without IRS tax classification as a public charity may receive a foundation grant for a "charitable purpose" if the foundation assumes "expenditure responsibility." This is a costly and time consuming function for private foundations, and most will not undertake the responsibility. Others are discouraged about the amount of paperwork necessary for a grant of less than $25,000. 10. Goal: Limit lineal descendants who are "disqualified persons" at the level of grandchildren. Explanation: In 1984, the law was amended to limit "disqualified persons" to substantial contributors to a foundation and to their children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and their spouses. The amendment further provided that substantial contributors will no longer be considered "disqualified persons" if, over a ten-year period, they make no further contributi·ons to the foundation and do not manage it, and their total contributions are insignificant in light of substantial growth in foundation assets. However, there is still no logical rationale -- or examples of abuse -- to justify the inclusion of lineal descendants beyond the level of grandchildren. Other Legislative Priorities 1. Goal: Allow private foundations to charge their investment expenses to their required payout amount for charitable purposes. Explanation: Trustees have two major responsibilities -investing assets and making grants. Reasonable costs to exercise both responsibilities should be counted towards payout. 2. Goal: Exclude from the formula used to compute the excise tax on private foundation net investment income any capital gain realized in the fiscal year in question. �-53. Goal: Extend the declaratory judgement procedure to various private foundation issues including set asides, individual grant programs, and company scholarship programs. Explanation: Presently, there is no way for a private foundation to litigate. It is proposed to extend declaratory judgement procedures to issues which require advance IRS action. CMF Activity 1. Regularly communicate with elected officials of federal, state, and local levels about foundation activities and concerns. 2. Encourage Member foundations to report grants and activities to government officials. 3. Establish mechanisms to assist CMF Member foundations to report their grants. 4. Encourage Members in each Michigan Congressional District to meet as a group with their legislator when the legislator is District to discuss the local contribution of community and private foundations and corporate giving. ~n 5. Support public reporting for foundations, beyond the reports required by law, and provide technical assistance for those foundations seeking to print an annual report or guidelines. Assist in distribution efforts. 6. Have a meeting of all CMF Legislative Coordinators at Annual Conference each year. 7. Continue discussions with Michigan Attorney General's Office regarding community and private foundation concerns. 8. Expand efforts to explain foundations and their problems to the grantee organization and the general public. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

TICE H. MONROE C. SIMONETII I J �6:00 - 10:00 p.m. RECEPTION, DINNER, AND ENTERTAINMENT The Battle Creek Federal Center The Federal Center, a complex of joined buildings, was constructed in 1903 as a replacement for the original Battle Creek Sanatarium (San) which had burned the year before. Dr. John Harvey Kellogg operated the San from 1876. He described it as "a place where people learn to stay well" by following a strict regimen of exercise, rest, and nutritious diet. Horace Powell later wrote in his biography of W. K. Kellogg that the San was "Long a Mecca for the health pilgrimages of Americans, including many celebrities." The 1903 San was 550 feet long and 6 stories tall. The building's current imposing appearance was created with the 1928 addition of a 15-story Tower Section and a majestic 32-pillar colonnade that extends across the entire front. By 1933, the Great Depression took its toll on the San: bankruptcy was followed by receivership. Then, in 1942 the U.S. Army bought the buildings and converted them to the Percy Jones General Hospital. In 1954 the San became the Battle Creek Federal Center under the General Services Administration (GSA). Today, in addition to its GSA offices, it houses the Defense Logistics Service (the central operations of the Federal Catalog System), the Defense Property Disposal Service, and the Cataloging and Standardization office of the Air Force, as well as other federal agencies. The Center complex, with its 20 buildings, 950,000 square feet of space, and 24 acres of land, is entered in the Department of Interior's "National Register of Historic Places." �6:15p.m. RECEPTION Cocktails and hors d'oeuvres in the luxurious, spacious, two-floor-high main lobby of the Federal Center. 7:00 - 10:00 p.m. DINNER AND ENTERTAINMENT Elegant cuisine in an elegant setting will be the order of the evening. Dinner will take place in the Federal Center's 10,000 square foot ballroom which, at the time of its construction, was the largest dining area in the world under one roof with no visible ceiling support columns. Famous dining guests included President William Howard Taft and Henry Ford. A lively entertainment review, thematically based on the changing seasons of the year, will showcase a variety of Battle Creek's best performing arts groups and individuals. Welcome: Robert B.

Hertz DATE: January 31, 1986 SUBJECT: Report of Committee on Philanthropy At its November 1985 meeting, the Board agreed to the creation of a committee to formulate recommendations on what, if any, activities should be sponsored by CMF to promote cooperation between CMF members and religious grantmakers. It was agreed that the committee would report back to the Board at its February 1986 meeting. This is. the committee•s report. The committee met January 30 at East Lansing. All of its members attended, including Dan Voydanoff, National Bank of Detroit; George M. Zeltzer, Jewish Welfare Federation of Detroit; Kay Hunt, Detroit Edison Company; Bertram W. Vermeulen, Fremont Area Foundation, and Willard J. Hertz, C. S. Matt Foundation. The committee presents two recommendations for Board consideration: 1. CMF should seek to develop within its members an understanding of the large and growing role of grant-making organizations sponsored by, or affiliated with, religious groups. This objective, we believe, is consistent with CMF•s fifth goal of seeking to expand philanthropic resources i~ Michigan. 2. As a first step toward this objective, the 1986 annual conference of CMF should include a session on "The Growing Role of Religious Grant-Makers," toJ be organized by our committee. A few words on these recommendations: First and most important, please note the emphasis on "grant-making organizations" in recommendation No. 1, and the term "Grant-Makers" in recommendation No. 2. We are not concerned here with the host of churches and other religious organizations that carry on charitable activities in Michi gan and that may already solicit and receive foundation or corporate funding. Our concern, rather, is with the growing number of religious or religious-related organizations that make grants or loans for social programs and that operate like foundations, accepting and appro vi ng proposals from the general community. MOTT FO NUATION B ILDING • FLINT, M I CHIGAN 43502-1051 • (313 1 !!38-5651 �Committee Report on Religious Philanthropy January 31, 1986 Page Two In its 1985 survey, "The Philanthropy of Organized Religion," the Council on Foundations identified 233 such organizations operating nationally or regionally, with an annual grant-making volume of more than $1 billion a year. We don•t know the number of such organizations in Michigan or their level of grantmaking, but we do know of a number of outstanding examples. The point is that the number and impact of such organizations seems to be growing, and we know little about them. Given the philanthropic needs of our state, CMF members simply cannot afford to disregard such an important source of philanthropic dollars. The session at the CMF conference would examine the growth of religiousrelated grantmakers, their sources of funds, their program interests and policies, and the possible opportunities they offer for cooperation with CMF members. Speakers would be drawn from CMF members, the leadership of religious-related grantmakers, or persons with special knowledge of this area of philanthropy. In addition, Dan Voydanoff hopes to have ready the results of an informal survey of religious-related grantmaking in the Detroit area.
