Re:

1995-96 Key Priorities

The detailed Plan ofWork for 1995-96 organized by strategic purpose is provided
separately bound in the back cover of the Board Notebook. The following narrative
reviews Key Priorities and provides a Summary of the task by CMF purposes.

Key Priorities

Legislative
Reenact legislation for the free market value deductibility of gifts of stock to
private foundations
Strike the sunset provision of the Michigan Tax Credit
Increasing Philanthropy
Establish statewide advisory committees comprised of attorneys, bankers,
stockbrokers, financial consultants, accountants, corporate CEO' s, and
potential foundations to discuss increasing philanthropic resources.
Assist the development of at least 5 new family foundations.
Program
Continue to develop CMF' s Detroit office
Increase the diversification of publications and technical assistance to meet
the growing needs of members
Continue implementation of the computer projects within CMF, between CMF
and its members, and with the community foundation special initiative
Continue implementation of the Youth Project challenge grant and the
development of the endowment fund to support future programs.

�21

Educate
Continue an aggressive educational schedule with both support for programs
for narrow interest groups, and three conferences on general interests across
the membership: an Institute for New Staff: a conference on Violence, and
a conference on Health.

SUMMARY

The CMF Plan ofWork for next fiscal year is organized according to the six
pw:poses established by the strategic plan. Support goals for these initiatives are
presented. CMF continues numerous services and programs each year. This summary is
an attempt to isolate new and expanded goals for 1995-96.

I.
Networking- Provide the means for regular exchange of ideas, experiences, and
expertise among Michigan Grantmakers.
The networking goal includes the direct services to our four major membership
groups: Independent, Family, Corporate and Community Foundations. The independent
foundation members will be implementing the first year of the internship program and the
common grant application form. A new service, ''Member Briefing" sessions and
continuation of the successful 'Wingspread type" conferences will highlight the year.
Family foundations will be served by regional meetings, three new publications,
consultation and outreach to encourage family foundation formation. Early discussions of
extending ''family foundation" services will begin as will the planning for a family
foundation conference to be held in 1996-97.
For corporate members, CMF will continue services and add new corporate donor
forum breakfasts. Initiatives will be started to understand and develop corporate
philanthropic "shareholder" statements specific to various industries and the culture of
out-of-country business owners. Educational sessions (designed for a variety oflevels of
expertise), three corporate giving newsletters, and collaboration with the Michigan
Chamber of Commerce will continue.
The community foundations continue their project to cover the State, to become
computerized and electronically networked and to build youth philanthropy. This year
the community foundations will implement a new model to sustain local volunteerism
Several publications will be written and numerous training opportunities will be offered.
IT.
Advocate- Represent Michigan Grantmakers' interests and concerns with local,
state and national governments

�22

The advocating goal covers the implementation ofCMF's legislative goal
statement. In particular, this year, we will be working to strike the sunset provision of the
community foundation tax credit and to reenact legislation for full market value
deductJ.oility of gifts of stock to private foundations.

ill.

Increase - Increase the grantmaking resources of foundations and corporations in
Michigan
The increasing philanthropy goal will be reached through the formation of at least
5 family foundations, 2 corporate giving programs, and the completion of community
foundation service for the State ofMichigan. Statewide advisory committees will be
established for the key constituencies involved in the creation of institutional
philanthropies and their insights will be followed-up through individual interviews with
key representatives from each area. The increasing goals include active outreach to
minority communities and financial advisors. If special funding is secured through a joint
proposal, The Philanthropic lnitiative/C:MF, more in depth work will be undertaken.
IV.
Educate and Inform- Provide Michigan grantmakers with educational resources,
information and services in order to enhance and to improve philanthropy
Educational programs are provided throughout the year by CMF for its various
constituencies. The Annual Conference is planned for Kalamazoo on November 8 -10.
Regional members' meetings continue as does the Institute for New Staff and Trustees
designed for all types of foundations. Two new workshops on grantmaking issues:
violence, and health and human services are scheduled along with continuing programs on
child care, and women in philanthropy. Library services continue with CMF taking a
leadership role in making resources available through computerization and electronic
networking.
V.
Promote- Inform the public of the importance of contnlmtions of Michigan
grantmakers to the citizens of the state and to society-at-large
Twenty new publications are planned. The Michigan Scene will continue quarterly
as will the ''Memo to Members". The Capital Campaign Report will be prepared along
with the companion pieces to the Directory, "Survey ofMichigan Philanthropy" and
''Information for Seeking Foundation and Corporate Grants". A ''Kiplinger"- type
addition to the Michigan Scene is anticipated. CMF will also meet with at least six
editorial boards of major newspapers.
VI.
state

Lead- Exercise leadership through facilitating members' responses to needs in the

Current leadership projects such as the Michigan AIDS Fund, the Youth Project
and the community foundation computer project will continue. A national conference is

�23

planned to discuss the youth project and to introduce a book written about the lessons
learned.

Support
Supporting these efforts are goals around membership, budget and finance,
administration, information systems and staff development. CMF hopes to recruit 16 new
members and to retain 97% of current members. The budget and finance area will update
both financial and investment policies and will become computerized this year.
Administrative tasks will center on the operations of the Detroit Office and the
normalization and operation of administrative systems in Grand Haven. Information
Systems will be working to implement the electronic communications system resulting in
the ability to communicate between members and CMF via computers. Finally, a new
area, staff development, has been added to ensure that CMF takes a proactive role in the
professional growth of the staff in order to meet CMF's new strategic plan.
Conclusion
Based on the new strategic plan, the CMF staff is proposing a Plan ofWork which
continues the current multifaceted services to the members and adds new initiatives as
requested. The detailed work plan is in the back cover. Management will be using an
even more refined draft for monitoring progress. We look forward to the challenges and
opportunities of the next year.

COUNCIL OF MICIDGAN FOUNDATIONS
MANAGEMENT REPORT

New Financial Reporting Format
The Council ofMichigan Foundations currently has three reporting entities: CMF's
General Operations and each of the two Supporting Organizations (Michigan Community
Foundations' Youth Project and the Michigan AIDS Fund). This reporting format is
consistent with external reporting requirements. The following comments are based upon
an analysis of detailed financial resuhs.

Balance Sheet
Cash equivalents refer to the Woodward Money Market Funds that we maintain until cash
is required to issue checks.
Note that the Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project has invested in U. S.
Treasury securities designed to provide maximum investment security while yielding
higher rates of return than money market funds. The Treasury securities are yielding as
much as 7.875% and the money market funds were yielding 5.15% at the end of 1994.
The securities are designed to mature at intervals in which grant payouts will be required.
The William W. Allen Endowment Fund supports legislative efforts. The Russell G.
Mawby Endowment Fund was established recently to honor Dr. Mawby's contnlmtions to
philanthropy. The Mawby Fund has grown rapidly since its inception. The current funds
which now exceed $300,000 as well as other outstanding pledges will be matched by the
Herbert H and Grace A Dow Foundation. Our goal is to bring the endowment to
$1,000,000 for the purpose of providing continuous opportunities to fund projects
through investment earnings which will increase or improve philanthropy.

Statements of Activity and Changes in Fund Balances
Revenues
In general, revenues are in line with management's expectations. Membership pledges
received subsequent to December 31 and outstanding pledges of approximately $30,000
are currently contemplated.
Revenue received by MCFYP includes the grant revenue for the MCFYP projects
expected in fiscal 1995. Investment income has been enhanced and should provide higher
yield during the last six months of the year due to the investment of funds in U.S. Treasury
securities and favorable interest rates.

�8

Fund raising for the Michigan AIDS Fund is strong and the directors fully expect to meet
this budget goal as the base of donors continues to expand.

Expenditures
General operating expenditures are being closely monitored. The following comments
pertain to significant expenditure areas.
The purchase of additional office space was made possible through the use of general
operating fund balance. It should be noted that the investment income generated by the
challenge grant funds advanced to MCFYP by theW. K Kellogg Foundation was used to
replenish the fund balance, as was the intent when it advanced the funds to MCFYP. As
ofDecember 31, 1994, the C.MF fund balance was completely reimbursed.
Remodeling and furnishing costs are estimated to total $75,000 which is being funded by
the following sources: specific provisions of the grants received by the Michigan
Community Foundations' Youth Project Supporting Organization ($40,000), by fund
balance for the telephone system and two printers which was approved as part of the
capital expenditures budget for fiscal, 1995 ($15,000), and by a membership contnbution
which has been received ($20,000).
Expenses in key areas such as telephone usage, supplies and postage are near or over our
annual budget at this nine month measurement point. When the budget was established in
January of 1994, the financial implications of the resources necessary to carry out the
administration ofthe Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project were d.ifficuh to
predict. The growth in member base as well as the administration of the MCFYP grant
activity resuhed in a reorganization ofthe community foundation staff(and other CMF
staff) this past quarter. The expanded member services, travel and meetings, and other
integral costs necessary to administer our programs grew more rapidly than we predicted.
The unanticipated increased use of conference calls in place of meetings increased our
telephone costs substantially.
The publication of The Michigan Foundation Directory solely by CMF was not
confirmed at the time the budget was adopted. The production required more resources
than were budgeted, but the increase in directory sales revenue financed these increased
costs. As of December 31, 1994, revenue from the sale of directories was $44,500
compared to the $35,000 which was budgeted.
The entire CMF staffis aware ofthe budget position and costs are being monitored very
carefully to minimize the budget overages as we progress through our last fiscal quarter.
The Michigan AIDS Fund expenditures and grants are generally in line with expectations
and have been reviewed by the Supporting Organization Committee of the C.MF Board of
Trustees, as have the financial resuhs of activities of MCFYP.

Terminating Memberships
Throughout the year, CMF staff communicates with foundation and corporate
representatives whose memberships are in arrears. After all avenues of
contact and persuasion are exhausted, each delinquent membership is
evaluated on an individual basis as to the prospects of retention. CMF
intensifies this process just prior to the beginning of its new fiscal year
(April 1). Therefore, this Membership Report contains a higher number of
membership terminations than are experienced in a normal quarterly report to
the Board.
Although 14 of the memberships recommended for termination are a result of
the above process, CMF will not experience a major loss of revenue. The
foundation and corporate representatives have, for more than one year,
continued to receive CMF benefits and publications in the hope that their
support would be renewed .

COUNCIL OF MICIDGAN FOUNDATIONS
AND SUPPORTING ORGANIZATIONS
AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEl\'IENTS
COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS
YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, 1995

Financial Reporting
In June of 1993, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued new rules that
will significantly affect the way many not-for-profit organizations account for
contributions and will change the basic financial statement presentation for many
organizations. These new financial reporting rules are not effective until next year
and, consequently, the new provisions have not been applied to these financial
statements.

Combined Statements of the Council and Supporting Organizations
The enclosed statements represent the activities of the general operations of the
Council as well as the activities of the two supporting organization: The Michigan
Community Foundations' Youth Project and the Michigan AIDS Fund.

Balance Sheet
Total assets of the Council and the two supporting organizations have not changed
substantially. The composition of assets has changed, however.
Investments
The Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project was initially funded during
the last week offiscall994. Since then, investment strategies have been employed
to structure a portfolio ofU.S. Treasury securities which will mature at intervals
when grant payouts are expected to be made. The U.S. Treasury portfolio stands
at $10,630,000 at March 31, 1995.
Investments also contain $6,353,000 of funds in money market accounts which
were yielding approximately 5.5% at March 31, 1995.
The William W. Allen Endowment Fund is held in an investment management
account and stands at $78,500 at March 31, 1995.
Detailed information concerning investments can be found on page 10 in Note C to
the financial statements.

�18

Accrued Investment Income
The U.S. Treasury securities, new in fiscall995, have interest payments at varying
semi-annual periods; Accrued interest on these securities was $17 6, 000 at March
31, 1995.
Fixed Assets
Net fixed assets increased approximately $400,000 in 1995 due, primarily, to the
purchase of additional office space directly below the CMF' s original space. The
purchase was financed with the unrestricted investment earnings from the
Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project as approved by both Board's of
Trustees of CMF and the Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project.
Additional expenditures were made to remodel and reconfigure CMF's total office
space. Furnishings were also needed and special funding as well as vendor
donations helped to finance these expenditures.
Other Assets
Other assets consist primarily of purchased interest on U.S. Treasury securities.
Deferred Revenue
Deferred revenue represents the amount of restricted grant revenue which has not
been expended by the balance sheet date. In 1995, general operations deferred
revenue relates primarily to the Michigan Cares project that the Council is
managing. The Council has received grant funds for this project from the
Michigan Community Services Commission, the majority ofwhich are granted out
to eligible participants in the program In 1994, deferred revenue represented
special funding for our computer infrastructure project which was not entirely
expended by March 31, 1994.
Other deferred revenues represent restricted grants and contributions to the
supporting organizations which have not been expended by the balance sheet
dates.
Fund Balances
The activity in the fund balance accounts is reflected in the combined statements of
activity and changes in fund balances for the separate entities.

�19

Combined Statements of Activity and Changes in Fund Balances
Grant Support
Accrual accounting requires that restricted grant revenue be recognized only to the
extent that it has been expended for the intended restricted purpose. The
formation and funding of the Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project by
the W.K Kellogg Foundation grants and the resulting increased activity of the
CMF entity in this project have resulted in the recognition of significantly higher
grant support revenue. In fact, the increase in grant revenue ($6,075,000) which
has been recognized is almost exactly equal to the increase in grants to community
foundations ($6,019,000) which can be seen in the first expense item under the
Expenses category of this financial statement.

Contributions
Contributions increased approximately $543,000 over last year. A substantial
portion ofthis increase came from the $351,000 in contributions made to the
Russell G. Mawby Endowment Fund which was established this year. The
remaining $190,000 increase came from increased membership dues and special
project funding.

Publication Revenue
Publication revenue increased $52,000 due entirely to the publication and release
of the 9th Edition of The Michigan Foundation Directory. The directory is
updated every other year. Sales have been very strong for this edition.

Management Services
An administrative services agreement exists between the Council and the two
supporting organizations. The administrative agreement requires the Council to
provide executive, management, administrative and other such services that the
supporting organizations may require.
The amount of these services is
approximately $763,000 which has been recorded as management services revenue
in the general operations of the Council and as management services expense for
the two supporting organizations. These amounts are then eliminated from the
combined revenues and expenses so as not to overstate these amounts. (See the
eliminations column.)

Investment Income and Other
Investment income and other income has increased $754,000 over last year. This
is due primarily to the timing of the initial funding of the Michigan Community
Foundations' Youth Project (i.e. last week oflast year). The investment income
earned by the Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project this year was
$748,000 making up most ofthis increase.

�20

Expenses
Grant expense increased $6,019,000 which is attributable to the increased grant
making capacity ofthe Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project
supporting organization.
Other operating expenses increased, in general, for two primary reasons. First, the
administration of the entire community foundation project by CMF, beginning in
1995, necessitated the use of more resources: human resources as well as
operating resources such as telephone, supplies and postage. To summarize,
operating expenses, exclusive of grants, were $2,036,000 in 1995 and $1,738,000
in 1994 -- an increase of approximately $300,000 or 17% over last year.
Significant expense fluctuations are discussed below:

Salaries and benefits increased $203,000 over last year. The reorganization of
staffin fiscal1995 to accommodate the increased activities ofCMF and the
formation of the Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project supporting
organization, including the promotion of.Kathy Agard to Vice President for
Program Services, necessitated the creation of an additional position for a Director
for community foundation services and an administrative support position for
community foundation member services. In addition, the promotion of other
personnel to Director positions in various areas necessitated the creation of an
administrative support position to assist with the increase in outflow of assistance
to our members. The increased volume of transactions brought about by the
growing activities of CMF, the Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project
and the Michigan AIDS Fund resulted in adjusting the Financial Director position
from a half-time position to a three quarters position. Salaries and benefits
increased also as a result of salary increases which were all within approved
budgeted levels.
Workshop expense rose to $101,000 in fiscal1995 from $51,000 in 1994 (an
increase of$50,000). The increase relates to a greater number of workshops as
well as a greater number of participants as our membership grows and becomes
more active.
Printing and publications costs increased $32,000, due mostly to $22,000 in costs
incurred to publish the 9th Edition of The Michigan Foundation Directory this
year. (CMF had handled this publication with a partner in the past.) CMF
continues to expand its in-house desktop publishing of information and brochures
as a service to members which accounts for the remaining increase which is spread
fairly evenly over the activities of C.MF.

4

�21
Meeting and travel costs continue to be a significant cost to CMF. This area has
increased from $85,000 last year to $118,000 this year. Approximately $26,000
relates to increased expense in services to community foundations. The new and
highly successful efforts in the Upper Peninsula resulted in meeting and travel
expenditures of$8,300. The rapid growth and need for membership service in the
community foundation field increased the volume of travel by the staff The
formation ofthe Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project and its new
committees resulted in more frequent meetings and higher costs. The remaining
increase of $7,000 is attributable to higher levels of activity in all areas of CMF as
well as increased mileage reimbursement as permitted by the Internal Revenue
Service.
Mini-grant activities which represent small grants to our members for conferences
and technical assistance increased approximately $36,000. Last year's mini-grant
budget was $30,000 compared to this year's budget of$65,000 which gave the
community foundations greater resources to draw upon for this type of activity.
Depreciation expense increased $27,000 to $72,600 as a direct result ofthe
$478,000 in property additions this year combined with the substantial computer
investment which was made last year which required a full year's depreciation
expense to be recognized.
Transfers occurred predominantly between the Michigan Community Foundations'
Youth Project and CMF. These transfers financed the purchase of additional
office space and related renovation as well as the completion of the
computerization of CMF offices.

Ms. Dorothy A. Johnson, President
Council of Michigan Foundations
One South Harbor Avenue, Suite 3
Grand Haven, Michigan 49417
Dear Ms. Johnson:
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements of the Council of Michigan
Foundations and supporting organizations for the year ended March 31, 1995, we considered the
Council's internal control structure in order to detennine our auditing procedures for the purpose
of expressing our opinion on the consolidated financial statements and not to provide assurance
on the internal control structure.
The comments and recommendations which accompany this letter resulted from our evaluation
of the internal control structure and other observations made during the course of the audit, along
with management's responses to our comments.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of management of the Council of
Michigan Foundations and supporting organizations.
We would be pleased to discuss the following matters or to respond to any questions, at your
convenience.
Sincerely,

Copy to the Audit Committee:
Mr. Leonard Smith
Mr. James R. Jenkins
Ms. Patricia B. Johnson
Mr. Richard K. Rappleye
Mr. Stephen E. Upton

�Internal Control Structure

As a result of recent growth, including the formation of the two supporting organizations, the
volume and complexity of financial transactions have increased significantly. In 1994, the
Council installed a management information system designed primarily to enhance the quality of
services to member foundations. Management is currently in the process of upgrading the system
to include accounting and general ledger modules.
As part of the system implementation, we recommend that management review internal control
policies and procedures related to the new systems and evaluate whether these controls continue
to be adequate given the Council's expanded level of activity. The transactions between entities
and funds have become numerous; therefore, appropriate authorization and tracking procedures
should be enhanced as part of the new system's design. All significant internal control policies
and accounting procedures should be documented in writing.
In addition, the new accounting system should include provisions that require double entry
accounting for all individual funds contained within the Council's financial statements. This will
give management further assurance that intrafund and interfund activity is properly recorded. We
understand that the new general ledger software package recently selected does incorporate this
double entry requirement.
Management's Response

As an ongoing analysis to upgrade our current system, management is currently
reviewing all staff functions and internal control procedures. Where appropriate, various
staff functions will be reallocated to the appropriate personnel to tighten internal controls.
As in the past, management will continue with our ongoing evaluation and documentation
of internal control procedures.
Installation of the new general ledger and accounts payable accounting system software
began on May 26, 1995. This new system allows for the appropriate authorization and
automatic tracking of transactions between entities and funds. In addition, the new system
requires double entry accounting for all individual funds.

�Not-for-Profit Financial Reporting

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued two new statements in June 1993 that
have a particular impact on the accounting and reporting of not-for-profit organizations. The
provisions of the two statements, Accounting for Contributions Received and Contributions

Made (FASB Statement No. 116) and Financial Statements of Not-for-Profit Organizations
(F ASB Statement No. 117) must be adopted by the Council for the year ending March 31, 1996.

Under the new statements, the Council may be required to change its current method of
accounting for certain pledges of gifts received and grants made. Additionally, classification of
the Council's assets, liabilities and activities for financial reporting purposes will also change.
Evaluation of the impact of these changes on the Council's financial statements should be made
as soon as possible, since the financial statements for fiscal 1995 will also require restatement to
reflect the provisions of the new standards.

Application of the new standards may be a time-consuming endeavor. We understand that the
Council has begun the process of interpreting the new rules and analyzing their impact on the
1996 financial statements. As the Council moves forward with the implementation of the new
accounting system, we recommend that management consider the financial information
requirements of the new statements and ensure that the data will be available. Ernst &amp;
Young LLP can assist in this process if our expertise in this area is desired.

Management's Response
With the installation of new accounting software, management will be working closely
with Ernst &amp; Young to analyze the impact of FASB Statement No. 116 and 117 on the
Council's financial statements. Meetings will continue to take place with Ernst &amp; Young
regarding the structure of our new accounting system, with emphasis on the financial
information requirements of FASB Statement No. 116 and 117. Once management has
analyzed the full impact of the new FASB statements, we will present our findings to the
Board of Directors at the November Board meeting.

Report of Independent Auditors
Board of Trustees
Council of Michigan Foundations
We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheet of the Council of Michigan
Foundations and supporting organizations as of March 31, 1995, and the related
combined statement of activity and changes in fund balances for the year then ended.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Council's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We have previously audited and reported upon the March 31, 1994 financial statements,
which are included in summary form for comparative information.
We conducted our audit 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
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, 1995, and the combined results of their operations
for the year then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Notes to Combined Financial Statements
March 31, 1995

Note A-Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Statement Presentation
The accompanying combined financial statements have been prepared on the accrual
basis of accounting. To ensure observance of restrictions placed on the use of available
resources, the accounts and financial activity are classified for accounting and reporting
purposes into three fund groups:
•

General Operations is used to account for transactions, substantially all of which
are unrestricted gifts and contributions and over which the Board of Trustees has
full control as to use in pursuing any of the purposes of the Council of Michigan
Foundations (the Council). Certain restricted funds related to operating activities
are accounted for in the general operations fund group since they are not
sufficiently significant to warrant recognition separately.

•

Supporting Organization Funds are used to account for the activity of two
supporting organizations formed during fiscal1994. The supporting organizations
are funded by donor-restricted grants, gifts and contributions. Grant revenue
restricted by outside sources is recognized to the extent related expenses are
incurred. The unexpended grant funds have been recorded as deferred revenue in
the accompanying balance sheets.

•

Endowment Funds are used to account for gifts established with the intent that the
principal be permanently invested and only the earnings thereon be expended for
stated purposes.

Supporting Organizations
During fiscal 1994, the Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project and the
Michigan AIDS Fund became supporting organizations to the Council under the
provisions of Section 509(a)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. The accompanying
financial statements of the Council have been prepared on a combined basis to include its
affiliated supporting organizations because the Council's Board of Trustees exercises
significant control over these organizations through the appointment of board members
for each of these organizations.

�Council of Michigan Foundations and Supporting Organizations
Notes to Combined Financial Statements (continued)

Note A-Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
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.
Contributed Rent and Furnishings
The Council leases office space at amounts ($22,700 in 1995 and $21,800 in 1994) less
than estimated fair rental value. The difference between the estimated fair rental value of
the office space and total occupancy costs is approximately $37,700 in 1995 ($38,100 in
1994), which is recognized as a contribution and occupancy expense in the accompanying
combined fmancial statements.
The Council received furnishings for new office space in 1995 at an amount less than
estimated fair market value. The difference between the estimated fair market value of the
office furnishings and actual cost was approximately $35,500, which is recognized as a
contribution and fixed asset costs in the accompanying combined financial statements.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts reported in the 1994 financial statements have been reclassified to
conform with the 1995 presentation.
Note B-Fund Purposes
General Operations
Amounts classified as General Operations include revenues and expenses related to the
administrative and service activities of the Council.

Note B-Fund Purposes (continued)
Supporting Organizations
Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project

During fiscal 1994, the Council formed a supporting organization (Michigan Community
Foundations' Youth Project) for the primary purpose of administering a project
commencing in 1988 that was funded by theW. K. Kellogg Foundation. The project is
aimed at encouraging youth development in local communities while strengthening
community foundation leadership and grant-making capacity. The Council 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 was incorporated on
November 24, 1993 with a separate Board of Trustees to oversee the grant-making
activities of this project. The W. K. Kellogg Foundation transferred approximately
$15,000,000 to the supporting organization at the end of fiscal 1994, and transferred
approximately $4,500,000 in fiscal 1995, completing theW. K. Kellogg Foundation's
project commitment to this initiative.
The Council also received a three-year grant totaling $350,000 from the Charles Stewart
Mott Foundation to assist in funding this project. The Michigan Community Foundations'
Youth Project received the final payment of $100,000 under this award during fiscal
1995.
The Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project also received a $2,600,000 grant
in fiscal 1995 from the W. K. Kellogg Foundation to provide funds for the
computerization of Michigan's community foundations, support for foundations which
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.

Supporting Organizations (continued)
Michigan AIDS Fund

The Council formed a supporting organization during fiscal 1994 for the purpose of
managing and administering revenues and expenses of a collaborative funding grant
program, previously administered by the Council, which acts as a vehicle for Council
members and others to cooperatively fund AIDS-related projects in Michigan. The
supporting organization has a separate Board of Trustees to oversee the growing activities
and grant-making responsibilities of this program.

Endowment Funds
Russell G. Mawby Endowment Fund

The Russell G. Mawby Endowment Fund was established during fiscal 1995 to honor
Dr. Mawby's contributions to Michigan philanthropy. Dr. Mawby, Chairman and CEO of
theW. K. Kellogg Foundation, was the founder 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 the Council of Michigan
Foundations' efforts to enhance philanthropy and increase charitable resources. The
principal amount is nonexpendable, with the investment income to be used for the stated
purpose of this fund.
William W. Allen Endowment Fund

The purpose of this fund is to record revenues and expenses directed toward furthering
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 the Council given in honor of a former Council board member who was
also the first Government Relations Chairman. The principal amount is nonexpendable,

Note D-Management Services Agreement
An administrative services agreement exists between the Council and its supporting
organizations. The administrative agreement requires the Council to provide executive,
management, administrative and other such services that the supporting organizations
may require. The amounts of these services charged to the supporting organizations are
eliminated in the preparation of the combined financial statements.

Note E-Federal Tax Status
The Internal Revenue Service has ruled that the Council is a public charity, as described
in Sections 509(a)(1) and 170(b)(l)(A)(vi) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Internal
Revenue Service has also ruled that the two supporting organizations, the Michigan
Community Foundations' Youth Project and the Michigan AIDS Fund, are exempt from
federal income tax as specified under the provisions of Section 509(a)(3) of the Internal
Revenue Code.

Notes to Combined Financial Statements (continued)

Note F-Transfers to General Operations
Transfers to General Operations represent amounts used primarily for the purchase of
additional office space, to make necessary renovations and to complete the
computerization of the Council's offices.

Note G-Commitment
As a result of expanded programming, the Council entered into an agreement in principle
to purchase additional office space at its current location. It is anticipated that the Council
will enter into a purchase agreement subsequent to March 31, 1995 committing the
Council to pay approximately $130,000 upon closing. The Council expects to take
possession of the office space in June 1995. The facility will be financed entirely by
unrestricted investment earnings on Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project
funds.

Re:

Community Foundation Committee Report

RESOLVED: An investigation for the establishment of a supporting organization for
environmental funding for community foundations begin.
Background: Great Lakes Basin Project
Since 1993, the community foundations in the Great Lakes Basin, led by the community
foundations in Michigan, have been exploring the needs and grantmaking opportunities
related to the preservation and restoration of the Great Lakes.
This interest resulted in a Wingspread Conference in the winter 1994, attended by
community foundation representatives from throughout the basin. The conference was
sponsored by the Great Lakes Protection Fund, the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation, the
W. K Kellogg Foundation and selected community foundations.
Representatives from each of the States within the basin and the Canadian provinces
attended.
Following the conference, a delegate from each state and the Canadians were selected to
draft a joint venture proposal on environmental grantmaking, specifically for the 91 Great
Lakes community foundations within the basin. These delegates met once in Chicago and
once at the annual Council on Foundations' community foundation meeting in order to
draft the proposed joint venture. The Executive Summary ofthis proposal follows.
The participating community foundations agreed that the Council of Michigan
Foundations should serve as the initial project coordinator because of the number of
community foundations in Michigan (51 of the 91 ), the importance of the State of
Michigan to the health ofthe basin, the strategic importance of Governor Engler to the
lake system, and CMF' s experience in managing similar collaborative efforts. This
progress was reported to the CMF Board of Trustees in November of 1994 and received
approval to continue.

Saginaw Bay Watershed
On a parallel track, the Bay Area Community Foundation (Bay City, Michigan) has been
involved in the redistribution of environmental fines to communities serving the Saginaw
Bay Watershed. This distribution of fines to local communities for environmental projects
is supported by the Department ofNatural Resources (DNR).

The DNR feels that most heavy industrial pollution is now under control with current
regulations. The continuing threat to the lakes is in the individual decisions made by
people in communities within the basin. The DNR would like to see more environmental
education at the local level.
Given the experience of community foundations in grantmaking, their local leadership,
political neutrality, ability to build endowment funds, and impartiality, the DNR would like
to work through local community foundations. The geographic limitations of community
foundation service areas are problematic given the multi-county nature of the major
watersheds in the State.
In the spring of 1995, the community foundations serving the Saginaw Bay watershed,
representatives of the DNR and the Saginaw Bay Watershed organization came together
to discuss these issues. All parties are familiar with the larger basin-wide strategy.
Council ofMichigan Foundation community foundation members within the Saginaw Bay
Watershed, are requesting that CMF establish an environmental supporting organization
for the purpose of accepting government, and other, funding which will be redistributed
either watershed-wide, or between the community foundations within the watershed.
CMF members would like this effort to begin immediately as a Saginaw Bay related effort.
They hope that it will expand to include other watersheds within Michigan and if funding
can be secured, will offer the legal structure for the basin-wide strategy. They envision a
Board composed of representatives similar to the Michigan Community Foundations'
Youth Project, which would serve as the overall policy Board with committees organized
for each of the watersheds within Michigan. The Board will provide leadership for the
basin-wide project. There is the potential for substantial fines being returned to Michigan
communities for the purpose oflocal environmental grantmaking, building endowments,
and supporting local problem-solving.
Community foundations also believe there is substantial donor interest in environmental
grantmaking once they demonstrate responsible leadership in this area.
This multi-state, and international effort between many community foundations in
stewardship of a vital shared natural resource is unique. The Michigan community
foundations, through CMF, have the experience in managing this type of joint venture
collaborative project. We would like to begin.

Community Foundation Financial Project
A small group of community foundation representatives, including a trustee from the
Community Foundation for Southeastern Michigan, and CMF staff visited England this
spring to explore the financial donor services being offered by the Charities Aid
Foundation (CAF) headquartered in London. Suzanne Feurt, Program Officer for the
Charles Stewart Mott Foundation was able to arrange her schedule to be with us.
While charitable law is somewhat different in the United Kingdom, the ideas successfully
developed by the CAF can be very helpful to community foundations in thinking
strategically about their donor and investment services. The new realities of the Fidelity
marketing efforts to donors, and other for-profit financial institutions offering services
similar to community foundations helps motivate this rethinking.
The Community Foundation Committee is establishing a small working group to analyze
the lessons from CAF, investigate the legal and service issues involved in expanding
community foundation financial options, and to provide guidance on next steps. This
working group will include legal and financial planning expertise from outside of the
community foundation membership.
Ideas include:
•

the establishment of a statewide "marketing" identification for donor advised funds
similar to the way the VISA card is marketed. With the VISA card each banking
institution handles its own program, but the "card" is marketed universally.

•

the potential for more direct donor control over grants made from current donor
advised funds.

•

potential lending of capital for "stop-gap" funding for capital campaigns for
nonprofits where the funds have been committed but not yet received.

Progress on this initiative will be reported and any necessary action to be taken will be
requested at the November Board meeting.
Public/Private Partnerships
The Governor's Office noted this month that a CMF joint venture with the Michigan
Civil Rights Commission and the community foundations' youth committees is a state
model for public/private partnerships. The Commission has made available $20,000 in
matching challenge grants of$300 per community youth committee for the purpose of
celebrating the values held by Dr. Martin Luther King. The Commission is providing
training for youth committees regarding the value of individuals and their rights and
responsibilities related to their community. Each youth committee must then commit to

�42

match the $300 and to use the resulting $600 in their local communities to celebrate
and/or educate regarding civil rights.

Memo To:

Board of Trustees

From:

Patricia B. Johnson, Treasurer
David R. Lindberg, Director of Finance and Administration

Re:

Financial Report

March 31. 1995 Financial Report
Attached is the cash statement in the usual format that the Board has seen previously.
With the change in software it is anticipated that some changes will be made to the format
to ease understanding. The Finance Committee will provide leadership to this effort.
As you compare the cash basis statements with the statements in the Ernst &amp; Young audit
report you will notice the Ernst &amp; Young reports are on an accrual basis. The accrual
basis accounts for such items as fixed assets, accounts payable, and deferred revenue.
RESOLVED: March 31, 1995 fmancial statement be approved as presented.
Formation of Finance Committee
RESOLVED: The Council of Michigan Foundations form a Finance Committee to be
responsible for reviewing financial operations, along with the Director of Finance and
Administration and President of CMF.
It is envisioned that the CMF Finance Committee would meet two or three times per year,
often by conference call. The Committee will review the financial statements, formats and
other accounting issues as useful to the Board. The Treasurer will serve as Chairman of
the Finance Committee with at least two other Board Members on the Committee. The
Director of Finance and Administration will serve as an ex-officio member of the
Committee.

Council of Michigan Foundations and Supporting Organizations'
Financial Report Notes
Year Ended March 31, 1995
Combined statements of the Council of Michigan Foundations and Supporting Organizations
Balance Sheet
Cash and Cash Equivalents represent investments in Woodward Money Market accounts,
which were yielding approximately 5.6% on March 31, 1995. Investments are held in
money market accounts to provide liquidity for current grant making and operational
needs.
U.S. Treasury Securities are invested to mature at intervals when grant payouts are
expected to be made. These securities are currently yielding approximatley 6.5%.
Accrued Interest represents interest earned on the U.S. Treasury Securities, through
March 31,1995, that we have not yet received.
Statement of Changes In Activity
Additional Contributions
Contributions were less than budgeted for the Michigan AIDS Fund due to the 1994-95
Mott Foundation grant (of $150,00) actually being received in 1993-94.
Investment Income
Investment income was greater than budget due to interest rates being higher than
anticipated.
Host Committee Revenue
This represents contributions received to handle special arrangements (i.e., receptions,
tours, etc.) for the CMF annual conference. Due to the Detroit location of the conference,
corporate sponsorship was greater than anticipated.
Directory Sales
In the past we shared the publication fees and costs with the League for Human Services.
For fiscal year 1994-95 this publication was brought 100% in-house, which resulted in the
increased revenue.
Software Installation Fees
This represents a $1,000 fmders fee we receive from NPO Solutions for each installation
ofFIMS.

i/jw/Lindberg/Boardlnfo/Memo529

�12
Telephone
These costs were greater than budget due to increased usage of conference calling for
various meetings.
Mailing Postage and Supplies
General Operations - postage and supplies are over budget due to internalizing the
publication of the Directory and increasing our services to our members.
MCFYP postage and supplies are over budget due to the increase in services requested by
the community foundation members.
Professional Services
$8,000 of the variance from budget was due to temporary help hired to help with the
publication of the Directory. $7,700 of the variance is due evaluation services associated
with Michigan CARES and the Upper Peninsula II project.
90's Program Opportunities
This represents our Increase Philanthropy costs, phone system installation, office
renovation, computer project and the strategic plan costs. The variance from budget was
due to the computer project costs of $49,339 which were funded by grants received from
MCFYP.
Office Space Purchased
This represents office space purchased for CMF. This was made possible through the use
of interest income generated by the MCFYP Challenge Grant Fund.
Small Conference
Small conference expenses were under budget due to the National Youth Conference not
taking place this past year.
Grants
MCFYP grants were greater than budget due to community foundations meeting their
challenges sooner than anticipated.
Transfers
Transfer occurred predominately between MCFYP and CMF. These transfers financed
the purchase of additional office space and related renovation, as well as the completion of
the computerization of CMF offices.

Re:

Government Relations Committee Report

Twelve 1\-Iember Visit to Capitol Hill to Secure Sponsors
for 733 and H.R. 734
On February 1, 1995, Herb Dow and I led a Council ofMichigan Foundations
delegation to Capitol Hill. The purpose of the trip was to:
•

Give each Congressman a printout indicating all the foundations in his district
and a new Michigan Foundation Directory, Edition IX.

•

Update each Congressman on the news oflocal foundations/corporate giving
programs.

•

Request support oflegislation.
--The composite bill would include three provisions, one of which expired
in 1994 (the ability ofliving donors to deduct the full fair market value
of publicly traded stock to private foundations).
--A bill which would permit the establishment of a common investment
fund for private and community foundations).

Each Congressman received a complimentary copy of the Ninth Edition of the
Michigan Foundation Directory, paid for by the Allen Fund, and a computerized
printout of all the foundations in their District, by assets and grants. The
delegation met with all sixteen Congressional Offices including personal visits with
Senator Spence Abraham, several Congressmen and some Aides.
We attended the Council on Foundations/Regional Initiative Luncheon where
Congressman David Camp (R-Midland) addressed the Regional Association of
Grantmakers Meeting.

R. 733. a bill which \VOt!ld permit living donors to deduct the full fair market value
for gifts of publicly traded stock to private fotmdations. and to II. R. 734. which

Reinstate Full Deductibility of Publicly Traded Stock S. 789) by John H. Chafee
(R-RJ) and Daniel Patrick Mo;-11ihan ( D-NY) CMF is ~cckintz, cosponsorship
from Senators Levin and Abraham, both of\\ horn expressed support in earlier
meetings.
Charitable Deduction
In compliance with CMF Legislative Goal Statement, CMF is seeking cosponsors
in the House for H. R. 1-198. \\ hich would amend the tax code to I) retum the
charitable deduction to those who do not itemize their deductions, and 2) remove
the charitable deductions from the current three percent floor on all itemized
deductions.

STATE ISSUES
Community Foundations ~ Escheats Funds
For several years the community foundations have been considering escheat funds
as possible sources for endowment building. Escheats are dollars which return to
the State because the owner does not claim them and cannot be located, for
example the balances on small checking accounts or unclaimed race track
winnings. Through the generous support of John Frey and the Frey Foundation, a
comprehensive study of the escheat opportunity has been completed. CMF will
review the study and has engaged David Haynes of Public Affairs Associates to
move the idea forward and seek passage of requisite legislation if feasible and
desirable.

Deductibility of Charitable Contributions
Under the leadership of the Michigan Nonprofit Forum, C::MF is working with
other charitable associations to gain support for a bill which would allow a state
income tax deduction for all charitable contributions. This deduction would not
replace any of the charitable tax credits. It is estimated to cost the state $32
Million. Legislation has not as yet been introduced.

Memo To:

Board ofTrustees

From:

John E. Marshall, ill
Peter P. Thurber

Re:

Investment Committee Report

.

Formation of a Joint Investment Committee

RESOLVED: That the CMF Board ofTrustees approve the formation of a Joint
Investment Committee to serve MCFYP, CMF, and the Michigan AIDS Fund. With the
Committee to consist of the current MCFYP Investment Committee members and the
appointment of two additional members, one from CMF and one from the Michigan AIDS
Fund.
In previous years the MCFYP and CMF Investment Committees have operated as
separate entities. As fund balances increase, long term investment opportunities will
become more common place. These changes will require a more in depth analysis of the
various investment opportunities available. The formation of a joint investment committee
will provide additional scrutiny from a increased committee base, thus enhancing our goal
of meeting each fund's goals and objectives. At the same time this will allow us to
provide the highest possible rate of return without jeopardizing the security ofthose funds.
Current committee members include:
-

Mr. Robert E. Swaney, Jr., Chair; Vice President &amp; Chieflnvestment Officer;
Charles Stewart Mott Foundation
Mr. Edward M. Hunia, Senior Vice President and Treasurer; The Kresge Foundation
Mr. Donald A Lindow, First Vice President Corporate Trust; NBD
Mr. John E. Marshall, ill; President and Trustee; The Kresge Foundation
Mr. Peter P. Thurber, President; David M. Whitney Fund
Leonard W. Smith. President; The Skillman Foundation

David R Lindberg and Dorothy A Johnson serve ex-officio.

Re:

RESOLVED: That the CMF Board ofTrustees appoint Diana Economy from the Capital
Region Community Foundation Youth Advisory Committee to replace Sunshine Morgan

BACKGROUND: Sunshine Morgan, youth representative to the Michigan Community

Capital Region Community Foundation has recommended Diana Economy as Sunshine's
replacement. Diana is an 11th grader at Okemos High School and is the chairperson of
the Capital Region Community Foundation Youth Advisory Committee.
REPORT ON MAY MCFYP MEETING: The MCFYP Board met on May 10, 1995 for
the regularly scheduled spring grantmaking meeting. During this meeting the Board
accepted the resignations ofBoard Members James Richmond, Sunshine Morgan, and
Assistant Secretary and Treasurer, Anne Stoll and welcomed potential new Board member
Diana Econony. David R Lindberg was elected Assistant Secretary and Treasurer.
The annual plan of work, plan of work results, budget, and management agreements were
reviewed and accepted. The Board approved the transfer of interest earnings to CMF for
the purchase of office space for CMF staff. The W.K Kellogg Foundation third challenge
grant of$12 million was accepted and new policies and procedures for the mini-grants
involved were approved. The Board received an update on the community foundation
computer project.
The Youth Project Challenge grant currently has 3 5 community foundations and 10
geographic funds (affiliates) actively involved. 10 community foundations have completed
the full $1 million challenge. The challenge has paid $19,331,139 in grants of
$20,754,639 authorized. The Board agreed to allow three additional opportunities to
apply between 1996 and the final date Apri11, 1998. This will allow the new community
foundations to have more opportunities to apply.

Terminating Memberships
Throughout the year, C:MF staff communicates with foundation and corporate
representatives whose memberships are in arrears. After all avenues of contact and
persuasion are exhausted, each delinquent membership is evaluated on an individual
basis as to the prospects of retention. CMF intensifies this process just prior to the
beginning of its new fiscal year (April 1). Therefore, this Membership Report contains a

�32
higher number of membership terminations than are experienced in a normal quarterly
report to the Board.
Although 14 of the 15 memberships recommended for termination are a result of the
above process, CMF will not experience a major loss of revenue. The foundation and
corporate representatives have, for more than one year, continued to receive CMF
benefits and publications in the hope that their support would be renewed.
Erickson Foundation
(headquartered in Boston, MA; Assets: $200,000; plans to terminate uncertain)
Harris Foundation
(not responsive to CMF requests for renewal; no reasons given)
Heartland Foundation
(school foundation serving Hartland School District; has not grown in two
years; no need for services)
Kowalski Sausage Company

Terri Thorn to re-instate)

(small foundation; giving limited to pre-determined list of grantees;
not interested at this time)
William and Mary Pagel Trust
(terminated assets into Community Foundation for Southeastern Michigan)
Prince Foundation
(focused primarily on religious giving/conservative philanthropy; not interested
at this time)
Edward C. &amp; HazelL. Stephenson Foundation
(single-purpose foundation; no need for CMF services per Ludger Beauvais,
President)
Vogt Foundation
(small foundation; not interested at this time)
Peoples State Bank
(will probably become St. Joseph Community Foundation)
Allied Signal, Inc.
(down-sizing their giving program in Michigan; not able to use CMF services)
BDO Seidman, Inc.
(duplicate membership; family foundation belongs to C:\1F)
Midland Cogeneration Venture
(no grantmaking program; no need for services)
Witmark, Inc.
(originally joined via Judith Frey's consultant business; did not develop program;
no need for services)

RESIGNATION

343

I wish to thank the Board of Trustees for the opportunity to serve as Chair of the
CMF Membership Committee. It has been a pleasure working with you in securing new
memberships.
As many of you know, demands upon my time have increased dramatically over the
past year. I now find it necessary to submit my resignation as Membership Chair, however,
I will remain actively involved in several other CMF projects. Once again, thank you!

IT. Board Members
The Nominating Committee has substantive work between now and fall, when CMF
Trustees for the Class of 1998 must be nominated. Four current CMF Board
Members will complete their nine years of service in November, 1995: Judith S.
Hooker, Gilbert Hudson, Donald A. Lindow, and Leonard W. Smith. While
succession has been planned, their departure will leave a great deal of CMF history
with them, as three of them served as CMF Chairs. The following year, several other
long-time CMF Trustees will have served three terms (nine years), the maximum
number of years allowable per the CMF Bylaws.

In addition, Twink Frey has resigned (she her letter of resignation which is attached).
Consequently, there are five openings. Your ideas and counsel are sought as we
maintain the balance of donors, trustees, and staff; geography; type; gender and race.

Dear Dottie:
I wish to submit my resignation from the Board of Trustees of the Council of Michigan
Foundations.
The time which I have spent as a board member of the Council has provided me with
insights into the world of foundations and philanthropy. I am constantly aware ofthe
great achievements and great challenges in the not-for-profit arena. I have enjoyed
meeting and working with many dedicated people during my tenure on the board.
I feel that at this time my contributions to philanthropy and to undeserved populations
will be best met in my ongoing committment and work with the Nokomis Foundation and
the Frey Foundation.
Dottie, I appreciate your listening and sharing as we dialogued and problem solved
together last Friday. I know how meaningful it was for both of us.
Sincerely yours,

Twink Frey

From:

Dorothy A Johnson

Re:

President's Report

CMF Receives Car
Thanks to Ford Motor Company, and the gracious assistance ofLeo Brennan,
CMF received a donated car. The four year old Buick, with 108,000 miles is being
sold. We are most indebted to Ford Motor Company, especially me ..... the car is
fantastic!
CMF Space Renovation
We look forward to the June meeting in Grand Haven when you will be able to see
the new space purchase by CMF and the new stairwell joining our two floors. The
move and space renovation are now complete. The staff is delighted with the
space.
Mawby Fund to Improve and Increase Philanthropy
Nearly 60 members have contributed, or pledged $457,200 to date, nearly meeting
the $500,000 Herbert H. and Grace A Dow Foundation Challenge. (See attached
list). Under the leadership ofRanny Riecker, we hope to complete the challenge
before November 1, 1995.
Detroit Office
Miguel Satut has completed his term as the Executive in Residence in the Detroit
Office. We are happy to report that Miguel has accepted a one-year position with
theW. K Kellogg Foundation as a consultant with their youth division. We have
procured new space in the 333 West Fort Street Building, and we have invited
Frank Judge, Jr., retired Ford Motor Company executive, to serve CMF in the
Detroit Office, on a part-time, volunteer basis.

�Common Grant Application Form
The Common Grant Application Form has attracted 41 corporate, community and
private foundation supporters during its final introduction. We look forward to the
continuing growth in the use of the form as a tool to assist nonprofits in
grantseeking and foundations in evaluating grant proposals.
Internship Program
An internship program which places college students in CMF member foundations
is well underway. Michigan colleges and universities have been supportive of the
opportunity and CMF members have demonstrated interest in the creation of the
program and in working with students. CMF will provide an overall structure to
the internship experience including, but not limited to, workshops and meetings for
the interns which will enrich their understanding and the meaning of the internship
experience. Three members are participating to date (Frey Foundation, McGregor
Fund, and W. K Kellogg Foundation).

CMF will be working with the Philanthropic Initiative who recently received a
$150,000 W. K Kellogg Foundation grant over the next year on a new effort to
increase philanthropic resources in the state of Michigan. The project will include
a series of personal interviews to discover the philanthropic needs of wealthy
individuals and their advisors, and the creation of technical assistance vehicles to
encourage their involvement in organized philanthropy, including funds in
community foundations, formation of private foundations, establishment of
corporate giving program, etc. If initial efforts prove fruitful, the project will
extend its focus to corporations, minority communities and educational
institutions.
State Chamber Magazine features Corporate Giving
Once again Jim Barrett, President ofMichigan State Chamber of Commerce, asked
CMF to coordinate the May issue on philanthropy. Together with CMF members
nine articles were prepared. This is the fourth consecutive year the Chamber has
worked with CMF. A productive relationship for all concerned.

C:MF Technology Update

Background
In 1993-94, all CMF staff were utilizing a WANG V5000 Mini-Computer System
with a custom developed software package. This system was developed to meet
the membership, mailing labeL directory, and financial information processing and
standard word processing needs of CMF. There also was one WANG terminal
which could stand alone as a PC. This machine was used to convert files from
WANG to ASCII. One Epson 386 PC was being used with a desktop publishing
software (Pagemaker) to produce CMF's newsletters in-house. The Epson 386
met only the minimum requirements for the use of the Pagemaker software,
therefore, the work was tedious and slow. Consequently for cost and time
efficiency, only a small portion of C:MF' sprinting/publication needs were met
inhouse. The Epson 386 machine also served one. other purpos~, to dial in to
Mutual of America (CMF's retirement plan carrier) to make electronic fund
transfers.
. ...

The problems with this system were:
•

The membership and integration features of the WANG software never worked
correctly.

•

The custom developed reports in the mailing label and directory programs
prevented adjustments and changes. Any enhancements or changes that Cl\1F
might wish to make would require a professional programmer.

•

Font, typestyle, and format choices in the word processing program were very
limited.

•

Because none of the programs being run on the WANG system were
integrated, staff was forced to retype some information multiple times.

Current Status

In 1994-95, the new IAN (Local Area Network) was installed with 18
workstations. The consultant, computer project steering committee, and the new

�51

systems administrator are working to improve LAN stability and eliminate
software and hardware conflicts (Stability and efficiency have been at approx.
75%). All staff members attended a three day training to learn how to navigate in
the Windows environment and how to use MS Word.
1his was a tremendous change of routine for all staff: especially staff who had been
long time users of the previous software, making the learning curve very steep.
But, the Windows environment is an industry standard, and MS Word is one of the
most used word processing software packages, which is very. compatible with all
ofthe other MS products. MS Word is a component of a suite ofMicrosoft
Products called Microsoft Office. About mid-year, most of the staffhad
developed an intermediate level of skill with Word and had begun to utilize the
other three components of Microsoft Office and use the compatibility to their
benefit. For example:

•

Access (database software) is being used to track the progress of the WKKF
Challenge Grants and programs related to it. At reporting time much of the
information is copied to Powerpoint to create color graphs to accompany the
printed reports produced in Access.

•

For the 1994 Annual Conference, the entire registration process was handled in
Access, with some personalized letters produced in Word (using information
copied from Access).

•

At the Corporate Grantmakers Workshop in December, the Information
Services Manager created a wonderful slide show on Powerpoint, which was
projected from a laptop computer through an LED overhead projector onto a
large theater screen.

CMF installed it's electronic mail server which allowed all staff onsite to
communicate electronically and share their personal calendars on selected levels.
Later, that ability was expanded to include specific off-site staff and colleagues.
All staff have utilized this capability a great deal and it has proven itself a very
inexpensive means of communication.
InMagic (horary database software) was installed on the network, which gives all
staff search only access to the library and resource file databases. i.MIS
(membership software) was selected and installed. Four staff members attended
extensive training and later passed on what they had learned to additional staff.
The WANG system has been reduced to 3 workstations. Directory, Mailing Label
and Financial information continue to be maintained in theWANG system. The
mailing label information will continue to be maintained until the i.MIS database is
complete and the financial package will continue to be used until a new package is
selected.

Future Plans
Starting with 1995-96, the LAN is now more stable and efficient (90-95%). A
small group of staff members have taken on the task of developing the new
database in iMIS, and will use theWANG member database as a backup. All
financial data continues to be stored on the WANG system and will until a financial
package is selected. The selection process will be led by the new Chief Financial
Officer. All CMF staff have appreciated the ability to electronically communicate
with their colleagues both onsite and off. CMF seeks to broaden the scope of
people they may communicate with to include members and other colleagues
across the country who may not share the exact same software. By April!, 1995,
there will be a second communications server installed at the CMF office to serve
as a gateway to the Internet. This server will allow staff to send electronic
messages to any colleague who has an Internet address. The MIS department
expects this new capability to be in beta testing for approximately 4 months, to
allow time to analyze monthly costs and insure security. After the test period, the
CMF addresses may become more widely available.
There has been much member interest in CMF making publications, sample
documents (resource files}, photos, and the library database available for search
and download. We will begin investigating how to best integrate the process of
scanning documents and photos into the network to be stored for later use, by staff
and members. Then, how to make publications available on-line. This process "Will
be concluded and recommendations implemented following our research.

Council of Michigan Foundations'
Finance Committee Meeting
Friday, October 13, 1995
University Club, Lansing, Michigan
Minutes
The meeting was called to order at 10:30 a.m by Patricia B. Johnson, Chair. Present:
Patricia B. Johnson, Chair; Harold Holland, David R Lindberg, Richard Rappleye, Ira
Strumwasser. Absent: James M. Richmond. The minutes were taken by Judith A Wright.
Pat Johnson stated the Finance Committee meetings would be held quarterly, with at least
one per year being in person and the other meetings possibly by conference call.
The committee reviewed the duties of the Finance Committee.

Upon motion duly made, supported, and unanimously carried, it was RESOLVED
that the Finance Committee recommend to the Board of Trustees approval of the
Finance Committee Duties, dated October 13, 1995.
David Lindberg reviewed the Investment Policies and Guidelines and stated that the
MCFYP Board ofTrustees approved the guidelines on October 12, 1995. The CMF
guidelines will be presented to their Board ofTrustees on November 8, 1995 for approval.
The Michigan AIDS Fund is currently drafting their own set of guidelines.
Mr. Lindberg noted that he will be drafting spending policies to be presented to the
Investment Committee at their November 7, 1995 meeting.

Ms. Johnson noted that the Finance Committee does not have the responsibility for
oversight of the investments. It was noted however that they would be kept informed of
any relevant information from the Investment Committee meetings.
Mr. Lindberg reviewed the Ernst &amp; Young Audit report for the year ended March 31,
1995.
Mr. Lindberg reviewed the Consolidated Balance Sheet, Consolidated Statement of
Activity and Changes in Fund Balances, the CMF General Operating Fund reports, the
MCFYP reports and the Michigan AIDS Fund reports. It was decided to present the
following the reports to the CMF Board:
- Management Memo
- Consolidated Balance Sheet
- Consolidated Statement of Activity &amp; Changes in Fund Balance
- CMF Budget vs. Actual.

The Committee decided to report grants approved by the Boards, but not yet paid out, as
liabilities of future financial statements.
iiDLindberg/Committee/Finance/Minutes

�4

Mr. Lindberg reported that he; Dottie Johnson; and Rob Collier, Chief Operating Officer
of the Council ofMichigan Foundations; have discussed that the membership letters be
mailed out earlier to increase the cash flow.
Mr. Lindberg stated that the interest earned on the MCFYP investments was being set
aside in a Board Designated Fund. The purpose of this fund would be to help support
community foundation programming past the year 2000 (which is the final year of the
Kellogg grant). Current projections show that we anticipate this fund to have balance of
$2.3- $2.6 million by the year 2000.
The committee recommended that the fiscal period be printed on all reports (i.e., Apri11
to September 30, 1995).
Mr. Lindberg explained the computer grant operations and procedures. The WKKF
Computer Grant provides 66% of total costs for computer grant to the community
foundations and the community foundations pay the remaining 34%. The community
foundations are eligible to apply to MCFYP for a loan to help them pay for the 34%. The
loan is at a 5% interest rate for up to five years.
Discussion took place regarding the FASB 116 &amp; 117 issues. Mr. Lindberg stated that
the biggest issue he saw would be how confusing the new statement format would be to
the Board ofTrustees. In addition he noted that adopting the new FASB's would involve
additional work by Ernst &amp; Young, which would be an unbudgeted expense. The
Committee agreed that in order to make a decision on adopting the new F ASB 's they
would need to see the effect on the financial statements and present this to the CMF
Board. Mr. Lindberg stated that he would have further decisions with Ernst &amp; Young
regarding this issue.
The Committee discussed the resolution to place the year end audit out to bid. The
consensus was that the audit fees were in line with what they would anticipate from other
firms. It was recommended that the Finance Committee develop a policy of placing the
audit out to bid after a specified period of time.
Mr. Lindberg stated that he will contact Ernst &amp; Young regarding an engagement letter to
determine their responsibilities and fees for the up coming audit.
Pat Johnson adjourned the meeting at 12:45 p.m.

Memo To:

Board ofTrustees

From:

David R. Lindberg

Re:

September 30, 1995 Financial Report

During the first six months of this year CMF has completed the implementation of a new
financial software package. This new software package has allowed us to provide a more
in-depth analysis of specific program areas. The result of this analysis has resulted in CMF
ending the first six months in a strong financial position. In addition to the new financial
software, we are continuing to analyze and implement additional internal control
procedures that will further strengthen CMF' s financial outlook.

Consolidated Balance Sheet
Through the direction of the Investment Committee, the current investment strategy has
been to invest the operating funds ofCMF, MCFYP and the Michigan AIDS Fund in
Woodward Money accounts and U.S. Treasury Securities. The Russell G. Mawby
Endowment Fund and the interest earnings ofMCFYP are being invested in higher
yielding Woodward Equity Index funds, while the William Allen Fund is being invested in
a mixture of bonds and common stock (see investment report for performance results).
The Investment Committee along with CMF staffwill continue to monitor the
performance of these various investment vehicles and explore other options that are
deemed to fall within the current investment guidelines.
Additional Member Contributions have remained strong during the first si"X months of this
year. $100,000 in additional contributions were received in October and thus have been
reflected as an accounts receivable as of September 30, 1995.
"Accrued Grants Payable" is a new category that was added at the request of the MCFYP
and Michigan AIDS Fund Boards of Trustees. This category represents grants, that have
been approved by the Boards of Trustees, which are committed to be paid out in future
periods. The purpose of this category is to give the Board of Trustees a clearer picture of
the current balance of non-committed funds.
In September MCFYP transferred $86,326 to CMF to pay for the Imaging Project. This
transfer was budgeted for :fiscal year 1995-96. You will note that this transfer is reflected
in the line item "Transfers From Other Funds".

Consolidated Statement of Activity and Changes in Fund Balances
As of October 25, 1995, $486,000 has been received and pledged to the Russell G.
Mawby Endowment Fund. This leaves a remaining unpledged balance of$14,000 to
receive the $500,000 matching gift from the Herbert H. and Grace A Dow Foundation.
MCFYP received an early distribution from the W.K Kellogg Foundation of$3.4 million
for the WKKF III project. This money was originally anticipated to be received in fiscal
years 1996-97 and 1997-98. Kellogg advanced these fund in order that additional interest
income could be earned to help fund community foundation programming past the year
2000 (which is the final year ofthe Kellogg project).

Council of Michigan Foundations'
1995-96 Budget vs. YTD Actual
Revenues
Compared to the prior year member contn'butions for the first six months of this year have
been very strong. Based on membership letters sent, anticipated contributions appear to
be in line with management's expectations. From October 1 to October 27 an additional
$31,600 has been received in member contributions.
"Additional Member Contn'butions" have remained very strong during the first six months.
From October 1 to October 27 we have received $6,100 in Additional Contributions. This
has resulted in a remaining balance of$22,550 to reach our goal of$202,390 for the
current year.
"Other Grants" represents funds received for the Michigan Cares Project and the Civil
Rights Grant. $246,000 of this money has been paid out to grant recipients during the
first six months (see Other Grant expense line item).
The CMF Annual Conference promises to be a record year with registration fees of
$129,000 being received as of October 26, 1995.
Expenses
CMF has continued to meet increased members needs with a minimal increase in staff from
the prior year. We will continue to analyze our various systems and explore new
technology to further increase services to our members, while at the same time not adding
any additional staff. Based on the results of the first six months we anticipate labor to be
near budgeted guidelines for the current fiscal year.

To further increase sales of the Michigan Foundation Directory, a special marketing
mailing was instituted in June. This special mailing resulted in unbudgeted postage of
$10,366. As of October 20, 1995, an additional $19,905 in Directory sales has been
generated.
''Professional &amp; Contracted Services" includes $17,500 in expenses from Public Affairs
Associates to work on the Community Foundations' Escheat Project. Funding for this
project will come from the 3-31-95 Kellogg Grant #1 Interest Fund Balance.
"Budgeted Conference &amp; Meeting" includes $124,700 in costs for the CMF Annual
Conference which will take place in November. Based on current registration numbers, it
appears the Annual Conference will fall within budget, possibly generating a slight surplus.
"Other Grants" are for the Michigan Cares project and the Civil Rights Grant which were
funded through current year receipts.
