exposes grantmakers to a wide variety of programs that
affect public policy.

Honorary Chair

Peter M. Wege
Peter M. Wege is more than a man
whose name in the philanthropic
world is widely known and deeply
respected for his work as the chairman of the Wege Foundation in
Grand Rapids. He is more than a
distinguished businessman and
industrialist, the vice chairman of
the board for the world's largest
office furniture manufacturing company, Steelcase, Incorporated. He
is more than a native of Michiga n
and the revered father of seven children and grandfather of fourteen.
He is, as Aquinas College president,
R Paul Nelson said when conferring on W ege the Emeritus College
Award, "an ecologist, environmentalist, futurist, and supporter of
causes for human betterment." Peter
M. Wege is the Honorary Chairman
of the Council of Michigan
Foundations' 26th Annual
Conference.
His educational background,
WWII military duty, and long
career at Steelcase prepared him
well for the quest he would willingly
embark on: a search for, in his
words, "clean air, clean water, and
the proper disposal of liquid and
solid wastes," solutions to "the enviromnental problems threatening our
planet."
An alumnus of the University of
Michigan's School of Architecture,
Wege came to the manufacturing
company his father had founded
well-prepared to deal with the
demands of a highly competitive
business. He worked his way up
through various positions, and by
1955 reached the key post of
Director of Design and Research.
In 1969 he was appointed
Corporate Secretary to the Board of

Directors and was named Vice
Chairman of the Board in 1985.
But it was much earlier that the
drive surfaced to do something
definitive about the world's environmental issues. While on active duty
(1942-1946) as a young flight pilot
in the Army Air Force, he encountered a situation which colored the
rest of his life. His first mission was
to fly an AT-6 trainer plane from
Fort Worth, Texas, to an airstrip at
West Point Academy in Pennsylvania.
On reaching his destination, he
could not land because the heavy
clouds of industrial smoke had
"socked in" the entire area. He circled Pittsburg's tallest building until
radio guidance and runway lights
(in daytime!) were able' to bring
him in safely. It was an abrupt
introduction to the circumstances
and consequences of environmental
pollution. Wege said, "Since that
afternoon, I have never stopped
fighting to save our Earth."
Pete Wege is the founder and an
active trustee of the Center for
Environmental Studies based in
Grand Rapids. The Center's main
purposes include educating the public about global life support systems
and assisting with public service
4

and research. Wege said two primary goals are "achieving both
healthy workplaces and an economically feasible environment. " Indeed,
the Center has worked collaboratively with several governmental
agencies and also has been a major
donor to Costa Rica's Natural Parks
and Conservation programs.
Only a lengthy list could chronicle Wege's current and previous
accomplishments. Entries would
include: past trustee of the Council
of Michigan Foundations; president
of St. Mary's Hospital Board of
Trustees; co-chairman of the
VandenBerg Center Calder Project;
chairman emeritus of U of M's
National Pollution and Prevention
Center; chairman and trustee of the
Aquinas College Board of Trustees,
and state president of the American
Cancer Society Board. He is the
recipient of numerous awards in
philanthropy. He also is the author
of the recently published book,
Economicofogy, the title of which
clearly conveys the topic.
When Wege was named to
receive the distinguished philanthropy award from the West
Michigan chapter of the National
Society of Fund Raising Executives,
a spokesman aptly described Pete.
He said, "It is the breadth of his
philanthropy that is so unusualnot just that he's given millions to
his own foundation, but millions to
so many other causes." The speaker
could well have added, "and a lifetime of service to human causes."
The Council of Michigan
Foundations is proud to recognize
Peter M. Wege as its Honorary
Chairman for the 1998 Annual
Conference.

begin promptly at 8:15a.m.)
Spirituality and Philanthropy
R -Capitol II
The spiritual search for m eaning is
often a significant motivating force
for those who give. This session will
explore the growing interest
throughout our culture in integrating
spiritual values in all aspects of our
lives. We will examine how such
values can inform grantmaking and
how spiritual development can help
cultivate new, more creative ways of
relating to our work. These simple
principles as seeds for contemplation:
philanthropy as a loving relationship;
assessing deep spiritual strengths
that undergird material needs; building partnerships that liberate our
natural generosity; how simplicity
and intimacy may transcend power
and influence; and how giving and
receiving can become one.
Economic Forecast &amp; The Impact
on Financial Markets
R-Capitol I
Join noted economists for a spirited
discussion of the likely course of the
U .S. economy and financial markets
in the months ahead. How should
your foundation portfolio be positioned right now, and for the longer
term? This session is a must for anyone involved in setting policy parameters, portfolio allocation, responsible for investment performance, or

simply interested in the opinions of
highly skilled money managers.
Growing Pains
R -Michigan II &amp; III
Endowments of private foundations
have been growing at a record-breaking pace. This increase has prompted
foundation staff and trustees to
review and reassess their priorities in
order to decide what to do with burgeoning assets. Has your endowment grown quickly? Or is your
foundation bracing for imminent
asset growth? This session will
explore the common problems associated with foundation growth whether
it is from small to medium-sized,
medium-sized to large or large to
major. Learn what steps you should
be taking from an expert who has
managed a foundation from its inception to its current position as one of
the top 5 nationally in terms of assets.
Technology:
Competing For Our Future
R-Capitol IV
The state of Michigan is at risk. A
technological revolution is sweeping
our state at an astounding rate and
with far-reaching implications for all
aspects of societal life. · There is no
business or industry, no segment of
government, and no service institution that is not affected - with some
struggling to find their bearings and
maintain balance - in this time of
great change.
The Michigan Information
Technology Commission has been at
work on this challenge for over a
year. Speakers will present a snapshot of where we are and a vision
for Michigan's future.

liability exposure. What should be
kept in a personnel fue under
Michigan Law? If you don't have a
personnel handbook or have not
revised the provisions of your handbook recently, you cannot afford to
miss this session.

Council of Michigan foumlaJ
Lansing Center1nam:ss1
November 4- 6, 1

�Welcome
Wdfiam C. Richarddon

It is with great pleasure that we welcome you to our state's capital and the
26th Annual Conference of the Council of Michigan Foundations.
Our theme, "Michigan Philanthropy Joining Force.J for a New Century," will
challenge us as grantmakers to see what role we can play in dealing with
societal issues. Your Program Committee has developed more than 75 sessions
examining in-depth issues on land use, economic and rural development,
healthcare, devolution, technology, racism, welfare reform, K-12 education,
and spirituality. In addition, they have planned numerous management-related
topics including investments, professional development, grantmaking basics,
and more.
We are delighted and honored to have Archbishop Desmond Tutu, The
Honorable Donna Shalala, and Governor John M . Engler, as well as so
many other distinguished individuals with us as speakers.

Patti ReynofJ.1

The Host Committee has planned wonderful site visits including the Library
of Michigan, Michigan Historical Museum, Impressions 5 Science Center,
Wharton Center for the Performing Arts, Kresge Art Museum, Abrams
Planetarium, Michigan State University Museum, R.E. Olds Transportation
Museum, The Oldsmobile Car Assembly Body &amp; Chassis Plant, a food distribution center, and the housing/community redevelopment project. Please
check your program and take advantage of these tours that will be available
throughout the conference.
In addition, the Host Committee has organized two spectacular events- "A
Taste of Michigan," and a night out at "Pete's Garage" with a performance by
the Greater Lansing Symphony Orchestra in concert with the famous pianist,
composer, and arranger, Marvin Hamlisch. These are two events you will not
want to miss.

Jamu Savage

Finally, let us express how fortunate and pleased we are to have as our
Honorary Chair, Mr. Peter Wege. Not only is Peter a distinguished businessman and industrialist, but he is a highly respected philanthropist who has
committed his life to service . Peter, we are proud to have you as our
Honorary Chair.
Your Program and Host Committees, along with the Council of Michigan
Foundations' staff, have worked hard in developing this conference and do
hope that you will make every effort to actively participate in what we have
planned so that we will all be better prepared to join forces for a new century!
Enjoy the conference.

�Honorary Chair

Peter M. Wege

Worth, Texas, to an airstrip at West Point
Pennsylvania. On reaching his destination
not land because the heavy clouds of indus&lt;l!rial smoke
had "socked in" the entire area. He circled ~ttsburg's
tallest building until radio guidance and runw ay lights
(in daytime!) were able to bring him in safely. It was
an unexpected introduction to the circumstances and
consequences of environmental pollution. Wege said,
"Since that afternoon, I have never stopped fighting to
save our Earth."
Only a lengthy list could chronicle Wege 's current
and previous accomplishments. Pete is the founder and
an active trustee of the Center for Environmental
Studies based in Grand Rapids, past trustee of the
Council of Michigan Foundations; president of St.
Mary's Hospital Board of Trustees; co-chairman of the
VandenBerg Center Calder Project; chairman er,neritus
of U of M's National Pollution and Prevention Center;
chairman and trustee of the Aquinas College Boa11d of
Trustees, and state president of the American G)ancer
Society Board. He is the recipient of numerous awards
in philanthropy. He also is the author of the recently
pu-blished book, Economico/ogy, the title of which clearly
conveys the topic.
When Wege was named to receive the distinguished philanthropy award from the West Michigan
chapter of the National Society of Fund Raising
Executives, a spokesman aptly described Pete. He
said, "It is the breadth of his philanthropy that is so
unusual -not just that he 's given millions to his own
foundation, but millions to so many other causes." The
speaker could well have added, "and a lifetime of service to human causes."
The Council of Michigan Foundations is t oud to
recognize Peter M. Wege as its Honorary Ch!airrnan for
the 1998 Annual Conference.

P

eter M. Wege is more than a man whose name in
the philanthropic world is widely known and
deeply respected for his work as the chairman of
the Wege Foundation in Grand Rapids. He is more than
a distinguished businessman and industrialist, the vicechairman of the board for the world's largest office furniture manufacturing company, Steelcase, Incorporated.
He is more than a native of Michigan and the revered
father of seven children and grandfather of fourteen. He
is, as Aquinas College president, R. Paul Nelson said
when conferring on Wege the Emeritus College Award,
"an ecologist, environmentalist, futurist, and supporter of
causes for human betterment." Peter M. Wege is the
Honorary Chairman of the Council of Michigan
Foundations' 26th Annual Conference.
His educational background, WWII military duty,
and long career at Steelcase prepared him well for the
quest on which he would willingly embark: a search
for, in his words, "clean air, clean water, and the proper
disposal of liquid and solid wastes, " solutions to "the
environmental problems threatening our planet."
An alumnus of the University of Michigan's School
of Architecture, Wege came to the manufacturing company his father had founded well prepared to deal with
the demands of a highly competitive business. He
worked his way up through various positions, and by
1955 reached the key post of Director of Design and
Research. In 1969 he was appointed Corporate
Secretary to the Board of Directors and was named
Vice Chairman of the Board in 1985.
But it was much earlier that the drive surfaced to
do SO]Uething definitive about the world's environmental issues. While on active duty (1942-1946) as a
young flight pilot in the Army Air Force, he encountered a situation that colored the rest of his life. His
first mission was to fly an AT-6 trainer plane from Fort

Endowments of private foundations have
been growing at a record-breaking pace.
This increase has prompted foundation staff
and trustees to review and reassess their priorities in order to decide what to do with burgeoning assets. Has your endowment grown
quickly? Or is your foundation bracing for
imminent asset growth? This session will
explore the common problems associated
with foundation growth whether it is from
small to medium-sized, medium-sized to large
or large to major. Learn what steps you
should be taking from an expert who has
managed a foundation from its inception to
its current position as one of the top five
nationally in terms of assets.

Memo To:

Council of Michigan Foundations' Board of Trustees

From:

David R. Lindberg for Richard K. Rappleye

RE:

1998-99 Budget.

Resolved: That the CMF Core Operations, Endowment Funds and Special Projects
1998-99 Budget be approved as recommended by the CMF Audit &amp; Finance and
Executive Committee.
The enclosed 1998-99 budgets for the CMF Core Operations, Special Projects and
endowment funds have been reviewed and approved by the CMF Audit &amp; Finance
Committee and the CMF Executive Committee. Since the supporting organization's
Board of Trustees are responsible for approving their individual budgets, their budgets
have been included in the consolidated report for informational purposes only.

CMF Core Operations 1998-99 Budget
Note 1: Conference Income &amp; Expenses_
Record attendance and special events associated with CMF's 25th Anniversary Annual
Conference resulted in the 1997 conference revenue and expenses being greater than in
years past. Management has taken a conservative approach in budgeting for 1998-99.
Note 2: Salaries &amp; Benefits
. Wage increases for 1998-99 are budgeted to increase an average of 4%. In addition, the
CMF Board of Trustees has approved a 2% increase in the employer's contribution to the
retirement plan (based on a 1 for 1 match of the employee's contribution). The addition
ofthis 2% match could, potentially, raise CMF ' s overall contribution to 10%.
Note 3: Publications
$23,000 of the increase from the projected 1997-98 amount, is due to the printing costs
associated with the publication of the 11th Edition of the Directory. The remaining
increase for 1998-99 is due to the costs associated with reprinting publications which
were produced two years ago and new publications which are scheduled for 1998-99.

work ofDr. Mawby in the area of increasing philanthropy. The second fund is the Ruth
&amp; Russ Mawby Fund for Kids, which was established to encourage youth to volunteer, to
give, and to learn about philanthropy.
The 1998-99 budgeted expenditures are based on the 5% spending policy which was
adopted by the CMF Board of Trustees.
CMF Special Projects
Special Projects are based on funding received for specific initiatives. Many of these
projects are based on multi-year grants which may carry over fund balances from one
year to the next.
WKKFK-12
The goal of this project is to integrate tea_ching about philanthropy, volunteerism, and the
third sector, into the kindergarten through twelfth grade formal educational structures in
Michigan, in order to improve our schools and improve and reinforce our democratic
social structures. The W.K. Kellogg Foundation has awarded $1,500,000 toward this
project with an additional $2,300,000 needed to be raised to complete the project's initial
objectives.
Mott Violence Project
~ The

Charles Stewart Mort Foundation has awarded CMF a $210,000 grant for a Violence
Prevention Project to work with community foundation youth advisory committees, and
all members that will operate through December 31, 1999.
Community Foundation Positioning and Marketing Project
The Charles Stewart Mott Foundation has awarded a two-year, $200,000 grant for Phase
III of the Community Foundation Positioning and Market Project for the period ending
May 31, 1998. Phase III provides for the testing of communications materials that focus
on two target donor audiences, women with hidden wealth and people of wealth,
identified in Phase I and II research, as potential donors to community foundations .

Michigan) with environmental grantmaking in the Great Lakes Basin.
The purpose of these grants are: to expand the knowledge of community foundation staff
and trustees about the environmental issues affecting the Great Lakes Basin, to build the
capacity of community foundations to convene community opinion leaders and policy
makers on environmental issues, and to increase the environmental grantmaking of
shoreline community foundations from both new and existing permanent endowment
funds.
The Charles Stewart Mott Foundation has awarded a $475,000 grant for the period July 1,
1997 through June 30, 1998. The Great Lakes Protection Fund has awarded a $166,000
grant for the period July 1, 1996 through June 30, 1998.

Joining Forces Child Care Initiative
This grant revolves around the issue of involving more grantmakers, particularly
corporate grantmakers, in addressing the issue of the need for both affordable and quality
child care. A grant for $40,000 is being received from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation to
fund this project for a one-year period st9.rting November 1, 1997.

Community Foundation Dissemination Project
TheW. K. Kellogg Foundation has awarded two grants totaling $291,300 for
dissemination ofthe lessons learned from the Michigan Community Foundations' Youth
Project (MCFYP). This project is scheduled to run from March 1, 1996 through February
28, 1999. The goal of this project is to share the results of the MCFYP project through
. publications, conferences and other means and to encourage other funders and youthserving agencies to involve youth in philanthropy.

Detroit Office
CMF has hired Susan Howbert as the Director of Family Philanthropy and CMF
representative to staff the new Detroit Office which is located at the Skillman Foundation.
The Skillman Foundation will be providing the office space along with a grant totaling
$57,000 for operating expenses over the next three years. In addition, the HudsonWebber Foundation and the McGregor Fund have each committed $28,250 for operating

Memo to:

Board of Trustees

From:

Lynn A. F eldhouse, Chair
Corporate Services Committee

Re:

Corporate Services

The Corporate Services Committee met on February 2nd to discuss two initiatives and
Program opportunities for the 1998 fiscal year.

Corporate Philanthropy Research Project
Dr. Dot Freeman, Director of the Center for Philanthropy and Nonprofit Leadership at Grand
Valley State University reviewed the results of recent research. CMF will work with the Center
to disseminate this information. For example, the Center's Website with the research results will
be linked to CMF's Website, so that potential "hits" can be tracked by CMF. There was
productive discussion on additional research needs for corporate members and on how the
Center's Geographic Information Service technology could be used.
Joining Forces Child Care Initiative
_
Mary Soper, a consultant retained by CMF, reviewed the Joining Forces Child Care Initiative
funded by W. K. Kellogg Foundation, The Skillman Foundation, and the Frey Foundation. With
support from the Kellogg Foundation, CMF has hired Mary to organize several educational
activities for corporations on the issue of affordable and quality child care. Committee members
discussed the need to involve Human Resources staff in this effort.
State Chamber of Commerce
CMF has entered into discussion with the Michigan State Chamber to be put on their spring
agenda to do a program on "Organizing A Corporate Giving Program." The May issue of The
Michigan Forward will contain two articles on corporate philanthropy, one by Dottie Johnson
and one highlighting a potpourri of community involvement projects by CMF corporate
members. A change in editors, layout, and readership has resulted in a transition on how CMF
members' information is accepted. CMF can now submit articles at any time throughout the
year, instead of only once.
The Conference Board
A late spring workshop will be held on "Empowering the Corporate Giving Manager" with The
Conference Board senior fellow, Craig Smith.
CMF Publications
Organizing A Corporate Giving Program is being updated for printing this spring for statewide
distribution. We are also updating the second edition of the Corporate Matching Gift Manual to
be released in early fall.

Memo To:

Council of Michigan Foundations Board of Trustees

From:

Ira Strumwasser for Richard K. Rappleye

Re:

CMF &amp; Supporting Organization's November 30, 1997 Financial
Statements

Resolved: That the Council of Michigan Foundations November 30, 1997 Financial
Report be approved, as.recommended by the CMF Audit &amp; Finance and Executive
Committees.On January 15, 1998, the CMF Audit &amp; Finance Committee reviewed and approved the
enclosed November financial statements. Following this review process, the CMF
Executive Committee also reviewed and approved the November statements as part of
their 1998-99 budget review meeting, which was held on January 22, 1998. The
November results ofthe supporting organizations were reviewed by their respective
boards during the month of January.

~~-

The internal financial statements as of December 31, 1997, were prepared after the budget
review process by the Audit &amp; Finance Gommittee, and therefore have not been included
in this booklet. Management has reviewedthe December financials which are in line
with the twelve month projected results, as reported in the Core Operations Internal
Statement of Activities enclosed.
The Audit &amp; Finance Committee was formed to conduct a detailed review of the enclosed
statements on a quarterly basis and therefore, this memo has been condensed to focus on
a few key highlights of the past eight months. As always, the detailed reports presented
to the Audit &amp; Finance Committee are available upon request.

Consolidated Balance Sheet
Note 1: Accounts Receivable &amp; Accounts Pavable
Both the accounts receivable and payables for CMF have increased during November due
to pledges outstanding for the Host Committee and invoices associated with the Annual
Conference. The $300,000 balance for the Mawby Fund represents the pledge from the
Herbert A. &amp; Grace H. Dow Foundation that was received during the month of
December.

Note 2: Net Assets
Due to the strong performance of the equity portion of the investment portfolio the
William Allen and Russell Mawby Endowment Funds have reached a market value of
$2,005,287 and the MCFYP Board Designated Fund has reached a balance of
$2,93 8,189.

Consolidated Statement of Activities &amp; Changes in Net Assets

This report has been presented for informational purposes only. The MCFYP Executive
Committee and Michigan AIDS Fund Board of Trustees reviewed their November 30,
1997 financial results at their respective meetings in January.

Core Operations Statement of Activities
Note 3: Conference Income &amp; Expenses

~'·

With the record number of attendees at the Annual Conference and the generous
contributions received from members of the Host Committee, management is projecting
the November conference to break even. It should be noted that $20,000 in funding for
the Annual Conference was received in the previous year and therefore does not show as
revenue in the current year.
-

Note 4: Publications
$10,000 ofthe projected variance from budget is due to publications that are being
funded from a beginning fund balance left over from the prior year. The remaining
variance is due to the success of the publication Establishing a Charitable Foundation.
Production for the third edition has started sooner than was originally anticipated.

Memo to:

Board of Trustees

From:

Government Relations Committee
William C. Richardson for Ranny Riecker, Chair

Re:

Action &amp; Update

Revised Legislative Goal Statement
Resolution: That the attached revised CMF Legislative Goal Statement be approved, as
recommended by the Government Relations Committee.
Proposed changes are indicated on the attached statement, last revised March 13, 1997. Since that
time, four goals have been accomplished and progress has been made on five goals. It is
recommended that two goals, relating to the common fund and expenditure responsibility, be
eliminated.

Capitol Hill Visitation
On February 3 and 4, 1998, twelve CMF Members and two CMF staff met in Washington, D. C.
with the Michigan delegation, including 15 Congressmen, one Senator, and aides to the
remaining Congresswoman and Senator. The CMF visit was part of the Council on
Foundations/Forum of Regional Association "RAGs on the Hill" Day, which involved visits to
nearly 100 congressional offices. The three bills for which we sought
cosponsorship included:
•

H. R. 519/S. 194- Full deductibility for gifts of publicly traded stock to private
foundations.

•

H. R. 2499 - The charitable giving relief act which would allow taxpayers that do not
itemize on their returns to deduct 50% of their annual charitable contributions over
$500 per year.

•

H. R. 2821 - IRA Rollover Legislation, which would amend the tax code to permit
IRA owners over the age of 59-1/2 to withdraw funds and not have these funds added
to taxable income if the disbursement is made directly to a qualified charity or
qualifying deferred giving plan, (charitable remainder trust or pooled income fund) .

We received a warm response to our message about the value of foundation and corporate giving,
as well as several co-sponsorships. Additional highlights of the visit included remarks from
Congressman David Camp (R-Midland), House Ways &amp; Means Committee Member, Tuesday

COUNCIL OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS
Legislative Statement
February 1998

(22)

Philanthropy in America
Foundation and corporate giving has long been a unique part of American society. In 1996,
foundations and corporations donated more than $20.3 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 program changes initiated by national, state,
and local governments, as well as increased needs.
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 the provisions that serve as disincentives for the creation
of new foundations, as well as provisions that discourage charitable donations to foundations.
After more than 29 years of experience, it is also apparent that a number of Internal Revenue
Service Code regulations, based on the 1969 Tax Act, have proven to be unnecessarily restrictive
on the grantmaking effectiveness of Michigan's more than 1,450 foundations , as well as the more
than 40,000 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 policy-makers, on these important issues. It
must seek support for legislative changes that encourage the role and effectiveness of foundation
and corporate philanthropy. That is the purpose of the following Council of Michigan
Foundations' Government Relations Program.

Background: CMF Government Relations Program
In 1977, the Council ofMichigan Foundations' (CMF) Members directed the Board ofTrustees
to develop a public information program that would support and encourage Michigan foundation
philanthropy. This program was to include a plan to communicate with public policy-makers. A
Conference Mandate (Government Relations) Committee was established to implement the
program.

�...
23

Since then, the Government Relations Committee has surveyed the CMF Members in 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 foundation and corporate Members, the Council on Foundations, and
other regional associations of grantmakers to enhance the understanding of public policy-makers
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, the excise tax on foundations has
been reduced, limitations on gifts to private foundations were relaxed, the .65 limit on grant
administrative expenses has terminated, fair regulations on lobbying have been issued, and at the
state level, a tax credit for individual and corporate contributions to community foundations has
been enacted.
Other changes since then include amending the law, whereby the gain portion of gifts of
appreciated property is not subject to the alternative minimum tax reduction and an affidavit
process for simplifying private foundation grants to non-U. S. charities. In the last year, two
regulatory items have been resolved, and legislation has been passed relating to gifts of publiclytraded stock to private foundations and ownership of S-Corporation stock. On a state level, CMF
has been instrumental in helping to limit the tort liability of volunteers of nonprofit corporations,
to repeal the state inheritance tax to keep donors and their foundations in Michigan, to support
the repeal of the Michigan Intangibles Tax, and to obtain a tax credit for individual and
corporate contributions to community foundations.
The CMF Board of Trustees approved the initial Legislative Statement on March 1, 1979.
Revised statements were approved September 19, 1980; January 27, 1982; May 10, 1983; June
14, 1985; April12, 1988; February 25, 1992; November 4, 1992; November 8, 1995, October 30,
1996, and March 13, 1997.

Goal: Support the continuation and expansion of tax incentives for the creation of new
foundations and gifts to existing foundations.

National Legislative Issues
1.

*

Progress
Made

Goal: Make permanent the full deductibility of publicly-traded stock given to private
foundations.
Explanation: The Tax Reform Act of 1984 changed the law to permit living donors to
make gifts of publicly-traded stock to private foundations and to be able to deduct the full
fair market value. Unfortunately, the change expired in May of 1997.

2

�24

Progress: Legislation was passed allowing gifts of appreciated stock to new or existing
private foundations at fair market value until June 30, 1998. It is CMF's goal to make
this legislation permanent.
2.

Goal: Change the limitation on gifts to a private foundation from 20 percent to 50
percent.
Explanation: Under existing law, the amount deductible by an individual taxpayer for
contributions to private non-operating foundations is computed as a percentage of the
donor's contribution base (in most cases, his or her adjusted gross income). An individual may deduct only 20 percent of the gifts of appreciated property or 30 percent of
gifts of cash. · On the other hand, an individual taxpayer can deduct up to 50 percent of his
contribution base for cash (and 30 percent for appreciated property) for gifts to public
charities.

3.

Goal: Increase the deduction allowed a taxpayer for a gift to a private foundation of
certain capital gain property.
Explanation: Currently, individual taxpayers may deduct the full fair market value of a
gift of appreciated property in the form of publicly-traded stock, if the gift is less than 10
percent of the outstanding stock of the company. However, in other cases, such as
privately-held stock, the amount of deduction continues to be limited to the donor's cost
or basis in the stock if the gift is to a private non-operating foundation. The same gift to
a public charity entitles the taxpayer to a full fair market value deduction.

4.

**

E1iminate

5.

Goal: Pursue legislation which would allow the establishment of a common fund for
private and community foundations.
Explanation: Currently, foundations are not allowed by law to pool their assets. Ideally,
private and community foundations could have an investment vehicle which would allow
· for pooling with potentially greater investment returns and administrative efficiencies.
Such a fund is allowed for colleges and universities. Eliminate: The fund has been
created and now has more than $1 billion in assets. Legislation no longer a priority.
Goal: Maintain the private foundation payout rate at not more than 5 percent to protect
the real value of foundations' grantmaking capability.
Explanation: In order to preserve the "real" grantmaking capacity of a private
foundation, it is important that all historical financial data be taken into consideration.
History has shown that a portion of the annual return should be returned to
principal. (Reilly/Skadden, University ofMichigan Graduate School of Business
Administration study sponsored by CMF, 1981- Private Foundations: The Payout
Requirement and Its Effect on Investment and Spending Policies, and a new
DeMarche Associates, Inc. study "Spending Policies and Investment Planning for
Foundations", 1995, sponsored by the Council on Foundations.)

Goal: Reduce excise tax to flat 1 percent instead of the present complicated formula
which permits, in some cases, a reduction from 2 to 1 percent.
Explanation: The 1984 Tax Act allows the excise tax on investment income to be
reduced from 2 to 1 percent if a foundation's payout for the year in question equals or
exceeds an amount equal to the year's assets, times the average payout percentage for the
five years, plus 1 percent of the foundation's net investment income.

7,

Goal: Prevent further efforts to reduce the usefulness of the charitable deduction and
repeal the 3 percent floor on itemized deductions.
Explanation: In 1990, after initially considering a cap on all itemized deductions, the
Congress approved a 3 percent floor in deductions. This floor was scheduled to expire at
the end of 1995 but was made permanent effective in 1993.

Goal: Establish a small grant rule which would allow grants for charitable purposes of
less than $25,000 to be free of "expenditure responsibility."
Explanation: Currently, if a private foundation makes a grant for a charitable purpose to
an organization without IRS tax classificat!_on as a public charity, the foundation -must
assume "expenditure responsibility." This is a costly and time consuming function for
private foundations, and most will not undertake the responsibility. Others are
discouraged about the amount of paperwork necessary for a grant less than $25,000.
Eliminate: Goal is no longer a priority. Process to expedite such grants in place.
With continued emphasis on accountability, committee considers it inappropriate
to pursue this goal.

9.

-Goal: Limit lineal descendants who are "disqualified persons" at the level of
grandchildren.
Explanation: In 1984, the law was amended to limit "disqualified persons" to
substantial contributors to a foundation and their children, grandchildren, great
grandchildren, and their spouses. The amendment provided that substantial contributors
will no longer be considered "disqualified contributors" if over a ten-year period, they
make no further contributions to the foundation and do not manage it, and their total
contributions are insignificant in light of substantial growth in foundation assets.
However, there is still no logical rationale - - or examples of abuse - - to justify the
inclusion of lineal descendants beyond the level of grandchildren.

10.

Goal: Modify the law to permit the "out of corpus" requirement to be met by a foreign
grantee if sufficient documentation is provided showing that the full amount of the grant
was spent for the specified purposes within 12 months after the year the grant was made.
4

�26

Explanation: When making grants to some foreign charities, private foundations are
required to treat them as private foundations. Any grant from a private foundation to
another private foundation requires that the amount granted "flow through" the grantee
and out as qualifying distributions that are made "out of corpus" by the end of the
following year. The purpose for this rule is to prevent a foundation from avoiding the
payout rule by having one private foundation give to another who then simply adds the
grant to its endowment (corpus), with charitable grantees receiving no benefit. In the
foreign grant context, the grantee rarely has any endowment and totally misunderstands
the concept of "out of corpus."
11.

Goal: ProteCt charitable gift annuities.
Explanation: Many public charities, including community foundations, offer donors the
opportunity to contribute through charitable gift annuities. Under these arrangements,
donors make a substantial gift of property to the charity and receive a fixed income from
that gift for life. At death, the balance of the gift passes to the charity. Legislation was
passed favorable to protecting charitable gift annuities, however, it is being challenged in
court.

Progress
Made

Result: Courts have to date ruled in concert with the intent of the legislation.
12.

Goal: Amend the generation-skipping transfer tax law to extend the predeceased parent
exclusion to charitable lead and remainder trusts.

Explanation: The Internal Revenue Code levies a substantial tax, called the GenerationSkipping Transfer Tax (GSTT), on a donor who distributes property to a grandchild while
the donor's child is still living. This tax is in the 55 percent range, and is levied on top of
the regulilr
est I':~ift taxes which may be applicable ... a combination which can total
almost 8 "' . ~\Slmilarly, a donor may not under current law leave the lead or
· remaiM-~~
t from a charitable trust to a grandchild without incurring this tax.
r,·~~r-e}\J:a~ does include ~"predeceased parent exc~usion" which eli~inates the GSTT in
((0~~ where the donor desues to leave property to his or her grandchild, and the
~~~ grandchild's parent (the child of the donor) is deceased at the time of the transfer. But
this exclusion now applies only to direct gifts and bequests and not to any type of transfer
from a charitable trust. Charitable lead and remainder trusts have become important
sources of support for many charitable organizations, and the impact of the GSTT is a
huge disincentive for donors who would otherwise create such charitable vehicles.

v&gt;

Result: Legislation passed.

Goal: Change the due date of the first estimated tax payment so that it coincides with the
due date of~~rm 990-PF.

Explll~~vate foundations now must pay estimated taxes on their investment

~~b\n~~uarterly payments. However, the first payment each year is due three and a
~~~f'i?onths after the tax year while the tax return is not due until a month later.

~~

Result: For tax years beginning after August 5, 1997, the due date for first quarter
estimated tax payments will be the 15th day of the fifth month after the close of the
private foundation's tax year. This change means that the first quarter estimated
tax payment will be due on the same date as the private foundation's tax return,
Form 990- PF.
14.

Goal: Secure passage of legislation providing a charitable deduction for non-itemizers.
Explanation: Most taxpayers no longer file the long tax form which permits itemized
deductions; instead they file the short form which allows only a standard deduction.
From 1983 to 1986 non-itemizers were permitted to take the standard deduction plus
itemize charitable contributions within certain limits.

*

Progress
Made

Progress: Legislation has been introduc_ed, H. R. 2499, which will allow nonitemizers to deduct 50 per cent of their Charitable contributions over $500.
15.

Goal: Support reasonable limits on the degree to which foundations and charities can
lobby or otherwise influence public policy decisions and oppose unreasonable limits that
adversely affect grantmaking.
Explanation: Oppose unreasonable and unnecessary regulatory burdens placed on
charitable and nonprofit grantees of foundations and corporate giving programs and
· unreasonable limits which adversely impact grantmakers' ability to fund research and
evaluation. While progress has been made, continuous monitoring is essential.

16.

Goal: Support legislation to eliminate the classification of realized gains and income,
derived from leveraged real estate investments by foundations, as unrelated business
taxable income.
Explanation: Foundations and non-profit organizations are significant investors in the
real estate market. Income derived from leveraged real estate investments, owned
directly or through partnerships, is currently taxed as unrelated business taxable income
(UBTI). Legislation would have private foundations treated in the same manner as
educational organizations and qualified pension plans, which since 1980 have been
exempt from the debt-financed property rules with respect to the acquisition of certain
real property.

Goal: Permit tax free distribution from individual retirement accounts (IRAs) for
charitable purposes.

17.

Explanation: It is proposed that direct gifts from an IRA to a charitable
organization would not be taxed as income to the account-holder who has attained
the age of 59-112 years of age, known as the IRA- Rollover Bill. It is anticipated that
such a law would increase contributions to many charitable organizations,
including community foundations.
Goal: Avoid excessive corporate giving regulations.

18:

Explanation: Legislation has been introduced which would require public
companies annually to disclose to their shareholders the charities to which they
made contributions and the amount of each contribution. Other legislation would
require public companies annually to let shareholders (based on their proportional
share ownership) to decide what charities should receive contributions. CMF
supports public accountability, but not excessive regulation which would require
costly administration.

State Legislative Issues
Goal: Monitor changes to tax policy pertaining to community benefits as it relates to
non-profits.

1.

Explanation: Legislation has been proposed in Colorado, Pennsylvania and Texas which
threatens the tax exemption of charitable organizations. CMF, working with others, will
closely monitor any related efforts in Michigan.
2.

Goal: Support legislation encouraging a tax-deduction for charitable contributions from
individuals.
Explanation: Other states have found a tax deduction favorable to encouraging additional gifts to charities, educational institutions, churches, etc., by individuals. A limited
tax deduction is proposed.

Goal: Support legislation allowing gifts and bequests received by units of local
government (cities, villages, counties, public libraries, school systems), to be gifted to
community foundations.

4.
Progress
Made

Explanation: While a number of community foundations have funds established by
local public libraries and school systems for scholarships, Michigan law is currently
"grey" on this issue. New legislation, similar to that passed in Indiana, is being proposed
to allow public units to transfer gifts and bequests they have received to community
foundations. This will allow these gifts to be invested for growth in contrast to current
state law, which restrictsinvestment options by public units. This will assist
particularly with partnerships needed to sustain community foundations in rural
communities.
Progress: Legislation introduced in House
Goal: Support legislation further defining a community foundation in the State Tax
Code. Being considered by House Taxation Committee, March 1998.

5.

*

Explanation: A community foundation is currently defined in the State Tax Code
pertaining to the state community foundation tax credit. It is important to further define a
community foundation in order to promote_permanency and accountability while
avoiding duplication of effort in communities and regions of the state.

Progress
Made

Progress: Legislation passed by Senate Finance Committee, being considered in
House Taxation Committee.
Goal: Amend the State Insurance Code to allow a charitable organization, as described
in Section 501~ ofthe Federal Internal Revenue Code, to have an insurable interest in

From: Herbert D. Doan, Member
Investment Committee
Re:

December 31, 1997 Investment Report

Resolved: That the December 31, 1997, Investment Report be approved as
presented.
The enclosed Investment Performance Report summarizes the asset allocation and
twelve- month internal rate of return for the Council of Michigan Foundations and its
supporting organizations, for the period ended December 31, 1997. The targeted rate of
return is a weighted average based on the previous 12 months returns for the various
indices listed at the end of the attached report.

..
'~

Overall performance of the endowment funds continues to remain strong due to the U.S.
equities portion of the portfolios. On the next page, you will note that the performance of
the Allen Fund has lagged slightly behind the targeted rate of return for the past twelve
months. The portfolio of this fund has consisted of actively-managed funds which target
primarily medium to small cap companies with a potential for high growth. To remain
consistent with the asset mix of the other endowment funds, the Investment Committee
has approved a re-investment schedule that will move these funds to index funds (over
the next two months) which mirror the S&amp;P 1500.
As you review the enclosed Investment Performance Report, you will note that the actual
asset allocations for the endowment funds vary from the targeted asset allocation mix.
Both the Russell G. Mawby Endowment Fund and the MCFYP Board Designated Funds'
recent influx of cash has resulted in the variances from the targeted percentages. The
dollars of the KYIP Fund are being gradually invested over a twelve month period, and
should be fully invested by September of this year. To deal with the variances of the
asset mix of the endowment funds which are fully invested, the Investment Committee
has adopted an Asset Allocation Re-Balancing Plan which instructs the Director of
Finance to re-balance the portfolio over a three-month period following the end of each
quarter. This recent policy will insure that the permanent funds' portfolios are
automatically re-balanced on a quarterly basis to stay within the asset allocation range
that was adopted by the Board.

                    <text>�With hope,
new problems . • •
In the last year or two, the AIDS epidemic
has changed dramatically. It has increasingly
become a disease of color, and of women. It is
no longer a death sentence; it has become a
manageable chronic illness for those fortunate
enough to afford the treatment.
These "new realities" of AIDS raise dozens of
new questions: How should the government
help the infected pay for treatments? Should
money for client services be shifted to pay for
medicine and prevention programs? Will people
again healthy enough to work get training
to re-enter the work force? And how can we
persuade government and the public to accept
innovative programs such as needle exchanges
as effective prevention methods?
The trustees and staff of the Michigan AIDS
Fund hope to strike a balance in this swiftly
changing epidemic by devoting resources and
attention both to these new challenges and
to the ongoing care and treatment of those
infected and affected by AIDS.

Statement of Mission

The resources,
staff and trustees

of the Michigan
AIDS Fund are dedicated
"to support efforts to
preyent the spread of AIDS
and to alleviate suffering
for those infected and

affected by HIV/AIDS."

�This report covers the Fund's grantmaking
year, July 1996 through June 1997, and
fiscal year, April 1996 through March 1997.

�Chairman's Message

av1gating
through the

new realities
A year ago, I described initial reports of new
"combination therapies" that appeared to be healing,
if not nearly curing, those with AIDS. These drugs
have been hailed as miracle workers because of the
apparent resurrections they induce.
With such promising developments, the federal
government has been all too eager to declare victory
over AIDS - out of sight, out of mind.
But AIDS is still with us. And it is still killing us.
The disease is cunning. As soon as one population
seems to get a handle on how to prevent it, or even
on how to slow its deadly effects, AIDS finds oth ~r
vulnerable groups to ravage - populations that often
lack the resources to fortify themselves against their
attacker.
These include African-Americans, who in Michigan are
being diagnosed with AIDS at a rate eight times faster
than whites; or women, who 14 years ago represented
one-eighth of Michigan AIDS cases but who today
make up fully twenty percent.

Meanwhile, as the number of new infections keeps
climbing, albeit more slowly, the "miracle drugs" are
increasing the number of people living with AIDS.
But for many, the drugs are unaffordable, with just
one year's treatment costing about $15,000 - far
more than the typical prescription caps of HMOs
and Medicaid.
These are just some of the "new realities" of AIDS.
Still, there are reasons for hope. While the federal
government has been sweeping AIDS under the
carpet, the state of Michigan :has shown a more
compassionate approach to the disease. During our
latest granting cycle, the state asked the Michigan
AIDS Fund to oversee distribution of $500,000 in
public money to fund prevention programs.
According to one national survey, that team approach
to funding is just one of the things the Michigan AIDS
Fund is doing right.
I

Nearly three-fourths of the programs supported by
the Fuhd in its 1997-1998 granting year are
community-based prevention programs targeting
specific populations such as migrant laborers, drug
users or sex workers. This is the proper strategy,
according to the survey of AIDS prevention funders
by the Center for AIDS Prevention Studies in San
Francisco, which says "generic AIDS messages aimed
at a general audience are not effective AIDS
prevention programs."

The study also reports that few private funders
supported needle exchange programs even though
they are proven to be effective in slowing the spread
of HIV. The Michigan AIDS Fund for 1997-1998
allocated $71,460 to Community Health Awareness
Group's Life Points program, the first legally
sanctioned needle exchange program in the state of
Michigan. The Fund's $60,000 opportunity grant in
1996 helped Life Points buy the van that serves as its
mobile prevention unit.
We at the Fund don't want to be congratulated for
being a thoughtful grantmaker; we believe it's our
duty to be effective. But we do want to be rewarded
with continued support and, most of alL results.
While the advances in the last year do offer hope,
AIDS-related philanthropy cannot end as long as even
one person is infected with the AIDS virus. Someone
needs to stand up for those infected and affected by
AIDS. Someone needs to help the growing numbers of
women and people of color who have AIDS find and
pay for care and treatment. Someone needs to help
communities educate their residents about prevention .
That's why the Fund, with its grantees, will stand firm
in this grueling battle until the disease is truly
eradicated.

�Surveillance reports estimate
that between 8,500 and
12,000 Michigan residents are
infected with HIV, with
perhaps thousands not even
knowing they are infected.
Michigan recorded its first
AIDS case in 1981. In the
epidemic's first five years, 317
people had AIDS. In the next
seven years, ten times that
number - 3,328 - were
diagnosed with the disease.
Just four years later, that
number has again more than
doubled to 8,590 - a figure

cases diagnosed in 1996 were
women, up from about onesixth of cases in 1995. In
1983, 12 percent of Michigan's
AIDS cases were women.
So far in 1997, 23 percent are
women. Three-fourths of
Michigan women with AIDS
are African-American.

make up only 14 percent of
Michigan's population, account
for 64 percent of the state's HIV
infections. African-American
women account for 75 percent
of infections among all women,
with just 3.1 percent of female
infections being white women.

Michigan residents diagnosed
with AIDS in 1996 were AfricanAmericans. They are being
diagnosed at a rate seven times
faster than that of whites.
Hispanics are being diagnosed
at a rate twice that of whites.

AIDS is the leading cause
of death for Michigan
residents between the ages
of 25 and 44, surpassing even
accidents, suicide, heart
disease and cancer.

�History of the
Michigan AIDS Fund
The sudden spike in AIDS infections after 1987 took
Michigan by surprise. But communities around the state
quickly responded, with grassroots organizations such
as care centers, buddy systems, support groups, child care,
legal services, in-home care and more springing up in
nearly every neighborhood.
The hurried response fragmented Michigan's AIDS family,
though, with each organization competing for support
and learning lessons on its own.
In an effort to coordinate an effective private response
to AIDS in Michigan, eight members of the Council
of Michigan Foundations in 1990 proposed the creation
of a statewide, pooled fund to support AIDS-related
organizations. Three Michigan foundations - Metro
Health Foundation, Charles Stewart Mott Foundation and
W.K. Kellogg Foundation - provided major leadership
grants to start the Fund while The Kresge Foundation
loaned Senior Program Officer Barbara J. Getz as its first
Chair. In 1993, the Fund became a separate Michigan
corporation qualifying as a supporting organization of
the Council of Michigan Foundations.
Through the Michigan AIDS Fund, foundations, nonprofit
agencies and individuals support grassroots communitybased organizations to combat Michigan's expanding
AIDS epidemic. The Fund educates donors, assures them
of professional grant management, and acts as a
"spokesperson" for Michigan's AIDS-related organizations.
This united response avoids project overlap and
geographic neglect.
Since its inception, the Fund has awarded more than
$4.2 million in grants.

1997 Michigan Conference on AIDS

I

•

•

The New Realities "
More than 200 people gathered in Grand Rapids
for three days last spring to learn about and
join forces against the AIDS epidemic and its
changing face.
Keynote speakers included Dr. Richard Marlink,
renowned Harvard AIDS researcher; Dr. Peter
Lurie, an expert on needle-exchange programs;
retired congressman Steve Gunderson; and
Phill Wilson, an HIV-positive scholar and one
of President Clinton's appointees to the AIDS
Advisory Committee.

Speakers and workshop leaders stressed time
and again that the current stage of the
epidemic is a strange one. People infected and
affected by AIDS are simultaneously rejoicing at
new, powerful drug treatments, yet wondering
how to fight the disease as it strikes back in
different communities.
The Michigan AIDS Fund plans to host the 1998
Michigan Conference on AIDS Thursday, May 28
and Friday, May 29 at the Ypsilanti Marriott at
Eagle Crest.

AIDS Partnership
Michigan
For lonely senior citizens at Detroit's
Restoration Towers, Linda's Meals is an on-site
outlet for compassion. For homebound AIDS
patients, it's a lifeline.
Gerontologist Linda Petersen thought it a
natural fit . Every weekday, more than 40 people
with AIDS in Detroit receive hot meals lovingly
prepared by residents of the Towers, a home for
low-income senior citizens.
"The program is set up so that we're going into
our clients' homes each day," said program
coordinator Steve Austin. "For some, I'm one of
the few people they see. The impact is
immediate."

Arab Community Center
for Economic and Social
Services (ACCESS)
Sexually transmitted diseases are ordinarily a
taboo subject for Arab women - unless they're
gathered, without men, to celebrate an
engagement or wedding.
ACCESS plans to send female AIDS prevention
counselors to these gatherings, called haflas,
to make sure the subject comes up.
"Women are taught to keep sexuality very dear,
very secretive," said Reem Khraizat, HIV/AIDS
project coordinator at ACCESS. "But here, they
won't be scared to talk about issues they're
concerned about. We talk about how to
negotiate with a (sexual) partner, to ask him to
use a condom until he's tested for HIV - those
are skills we have to help women get, and to
practice with them ."

AIDS Services
Thumb Area

Community Health
Awareness Group, Detroit

The AIDS Services Thumb Area (ASTA) in
Port Huron provides a variety of client
services for t hose infected and affected by
AIDS, includi ng fundraisers, memorial
services, media cam paigns and HIV testing
and counseling . The Michigan AIDS Fund's
1997 grant will help ASTA continue these
and other progra ms.

Need le-exchange prog ra ms are like seat
belts, Harry Simpson says: Each is a harmreduction strategy aimed at saving lives.

The ASTA Puppeteers provide an AIDS
awareness/harm reduction program called
"An AIDS Lesson" for fourth-, fifth- and
sixth-graders in their community.

Since December 1996, Simpso n has operated
Life Poi nts, Michigan's first licensed syringeexchange program . Out of an oversized van,
volunteers give injection drug users clean
needles along with other AIDS prevention
materials such as condoms, brochures an d
referrals to drug treatment programs.
The programs are economical. Medical
treatment for just one AIDS patient runs
about $135,000 a year - more than enough
to run the preventative Life Points program
for a who le year.

The primary foc us of the Michigan AIDS Fund is to
support programs aimed at preventing AIDS, at caring
for and treating those infected and affected by AIDS,
and at building capacity of AIDS-related agencies.
Preference is usually given to agencies and programs of
proven integrity that also demonstrate community
collaboration, service to high-risk populations, careful
budgeting, innovation, measurable results and community
responsiveness. Michigan AIDS Fund trustees establish
annual funding priorities that change and evolve along
with or ahead of the changing epidemic.
The Fund's granting cycle begins in September with
requests for Letters of Intent from organizations seeking
grants. The trustees then decide which Letters of Intent
qualify for full grant applications. Applications are due
early in the year, and the grants begin on July 1 of the
cycle year.
To request a Common Grant/Letter of Intent Application,
write to:
Michigan AIDS Fund
Grant Manager
678 Front Street NW
Grand Rapids, MI 49504
A two-page narrative summary of the proposed project must
accompany the completed application form and must include
a summary of the organization's history, a statement of the
organization's mission, a description of the proposed target
audience, a project timetable, a description of planned
collaborations and a statement of objectives.

"B ut it ain't about money," Sim pso n says.
"It's about savin g lives."

Treasurer's Re art
The Michigan AIDS Fund was established in 1989 by the Council of Michigan Foundations
(CMF) and became a separate Michigan corporation qualifying as a supporting organization
of CMF in November 1993.
The Internal Revenue Service has ruled that the Fund is a public charity, exempt from
federal income tax as described under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
As Michigan grantmakers have discovered the technical expertise that the Fund is able to
provide, they have come to rely on the Fund as an intermediary for disbursing their grant
funds to help fight the AIDS epidemic. As a result, overall contributions increased by
approximately $110,000 over the last year. The increase has allowed the Fund to raise
overall grant payouts during the past year.
To allow the Fund to draw on an extensive staff of experts, the Board of Trustees has
contracted with an independent consulting firm that provides project management, staffing
and support services. With the increasing demands for technical assistance and the growth
of the Fund over the past several years, there has been a need to hire additional experts in
areas such as publications and fund raising . During this past year the Fund also hired a
new Executi~e Director who has had extensive exposure to national funders . To compensate
for the staffing changes, management fees were adjusted during the past year.
Ernst &amp; Young, LLP has issued an unqualified opinion on the financial statements of the
Fund for the years ended March 31, 1997 and 1996. The financial statements presented in
the Annual Report have been derived from the statements audited by Ernst &amp; Young LLP,
which were prepared in accordance with GAAP, including FASB Statements Nos. 116 &amp; 117.
The Ernst &amp; Young audited statements have been modified for the Annual Report to reflect
multi-year grant commitments as revenue in the year in which the dollars are received. The
audited financial statements are available for public inspection at the CMF offices.

Ann Arbor Jaycees

Telamon Corporation

A $1,000 opportunity grant from the Michigan
AIDS Fund in 1996 helped the Jaycees bring
to Ann Arbor the second-largest display of the
AIDS Memorial Quilt in the last year. The event
in turn raised nearly $30,000 for the HIV/AIDS
Resource Center of Ypsilanti.

Solid statistics about the AIDS epidemic in
migrant communities are hard to track, but
Nick Murphy, a health education specialist at
Lansing-based Telamon Corp., says HIV/AIDS
is "definitely a problem" in migrant camps.

More than 11,500 people visited the 57,000square-foot display in February 1997 at the
University of Michigan.
"I think we need to have more displays like
this," one 12-year-old Ann Arbor girl stated.
"No one at school seems to understand, and
this might help them ."
"This quilt really made me think about the
possibilities of AIDS for myself, my family, or
my friends," another 12-year-old girl said.

Language barriers and migrants' high rate of
mobility make it difficult to teach these largely
Hispanic communities about AIDS prevention.
Telamon is developing bilingual prevention
education packets to distribute in migrant
worker camps. Spanish-speaking camp health
aides will reinforce the information in the
packets, which include specially-targeted
messages for teens, pregnant women and
young couples.
Northwest Michigan Health Services Inc. in
Traverse City and Midwest Migrant Health
Information Office in Monroe also received
Fund grants for similar programs.

Memo to:

Board of Trustees

From:

Dorothy A. Johnson

Re:

President's Report

Since we last met in November at our very successful 25th Annual Conference,
volunteers and staff have been busy on numerous activities. The following summary
highlights both accomplishments and projects that are in the pipeline through June.
Additional inforrilation can be provided on each item.

I.

Conferences &amp; Meetings

Family Foundation Getaway
Led by Trustee Ann Irish, the Family Foundations Committee and Susan Howbert, have
planned an exciting Getaway on May 15-17 at Yarrow, in Augusta, for Family
Foundation members. Titled, Blessings and Challenges of Family Money, the Getaway
will feature Judy Barber from Napa, California, and Ed Parks from Southfield. They both
spoke at the Annual Conference, and were so popular we are bringing them back
Evaluation Institute
More than 30 grantmakers will be meeting in Lansing for a one-day Evaluation Institute
on February 25. John Seeley from FERA (formative Evaluation Research Associates) in
Ann Arbor and Ricardo Millett from the Kellogg Foundation, are the featured speakers.
We are grateful for the leadership of Joyce Brown from the Kellogg Foundation in
organizing this event and putting together an excellent notebook of evaluation materials
for each participant.
Community Foundation Trustee Phone Conferences
As a result of the success of last fall's pilot effort, a second series of evening phone
conference calls on four subjects is being held. In addition to basic board responsibilities,
fund development, and board recruitment, a new subject- duties of the board chair- has
been added. Maureen Robinson, lead trainer of the National Center for Nonprofit Boards,
continues to be the facilitator for the one-hour "1-800" calls.
Community Foundation Program Officers Retreat
Haworth Conference and Learning Center on the campus of Hope College, in Holland,
will be the site of a two-day Community Foundation Program Officers' Retreat this
month. Twenty-five program officers will gather to exchange ideas, network, and plan
technical assistance and training for 1998. Michigan Community Foundation Program
Officers have organized an affinity group called Michigan ProNet with a mission to link
with the COF national ProNet affinity group, to support CMF in design and
implementation of trainings, and to provide input on the Computer Project and FIMS.

�78

Community Foundation Executive Directors Retreat
Over 50 community foundation executive directors will hold a two-day retreat in March
in Holland, to learn about new community foundation initiatives and to receive technical
assistance and training on issues ranging from fund development, marketing, and donor
relations, to investment management. The retreat will include a tour and reception at the
Holland Area Arts Center, which will be hosted by the Community Foundation of the
Holland/Zeeland Area and the Grand Haven Area Community Foundation.
Leadership Academy
Five full days oftraining will be offered in May and June for new staff and trustees from
community foundations. The faculty for the Academy will be seasoned staff from the
larger Michigan community foundations. The trainings will originate in Lansing and be
teleconferenced to two northern sites: Gaylord in the northern Lower Peninsula, and
Marquette in the Upper Peninsula. Topics include History, Characteristics and Definition
of a Community Foundation, Boardsmanship, Donor Relations, Fund Development and
Planned Giving, Grantmaking, Information Management, Investment Management, Legal
Aspects, and Convening. Videotapes and resource manuals from the five days of
trainings will be made available for purchase by out-of-state community foundations .
Literature and the Professions
Professor Sandy Lottor will be returning to leaEl two discussions for family foundation
staff and trustees, on Wednesday, June 10, in Detroit, and Thursday afternoon, June 11, in
Charlevoix, before our annual members reception with the Board of Trustees. You will
be receiving further information about both events and are welcome to join that Thursday
discussion with Sandy, if your schedules permit.
Detroit Area Grantmakers
Attendance at the monthly meetings continues to exceed 40, with 48 participants at the
February luncheon on the subject "Planned Giving for NonProfit Organizations". Author
David LaPiana will be speaking March 10 on "NonProfit Strategic Restructuring and
Mergers".

II.

Information Services

About 1,000 requests for assistance continue to be handled each month. Special .
highlights include:
• The web-site has been visited more than 7,600 times.
• Recent additions to the Website include: Sample Documents for Community
Foundations, Information for Seeking Foundation and Corporate Grants with the
Common Application Form and the 120 sample grants from Making A
Difference, Grantmakers and NonProfits Working for Michigan's Future. The
electronic library is being added to the site this month.

III.

The MCFYP web-site has been "hit" over 300 times. The chat room is operational
and an On-Line meeting is scheduled for February. Efforts are underway to
increase the use and visibility of this site.
Fax-on-Demand continues to be used with 393 member calls and 454 non-member
calls. A fifth listserv is being added for community foundation CEOs.
1200 For the Benefit ofAll books have been sold, and the book is scheduled for
review in the March-April issue of Michigan History Magazine, which has a
circulation of 40,000.

Publications

Memo to Members
This important communications tool has been recently redesigned with input from both
members and the Communications Committee. We are excited about its new look.
Family Fax- Blessings &amp; Challenges of Transferring Intergenerational Wealth
This issue highlights two articles written by Judy Barber, family business consultant from
Napa, California, and speaker at our 25th Annual Conference. As in the past, copies were
distributed to a target group of 400 non-member family foundations.
Empowering Youth- Lessons Learned from JYCFYP and
Growing Community Foundations
These two publications represent the second edition of the Lessons Learned document
produced in 1996 for the National Youth Conference. The Empowering Youth
monograph has been updated with the latest figures on the grantmaking of youth advisory
committees, and also contains a new chapter with the initial research on the impact that
YACs are having on nonprofits delivering services to youth. The original monograph
was split into two, to better respond to the requests received for information on MCFYP.
Sample Documents for Family Foundations
This new resource for family foundations is in the editing phase, with expected
production by the end of March. We are hopeful that the resources will be available to
include a disc of the key documents with each notebook.
The Michigan Foundation Directory, 1Oth Edition
Sales of the Michigan Foundation Directory now total2,603. A reduced price sale will
begin in May to distribute the remaining copies before the 11th Edition is published in
the fall.
Publications Catalogue
The new Publications Catalogue has been published and features more than 50
publications.

�80

Establishing A Charitable Foundation in Michigan - Third Edition, and Establishing
&amp; Administering A Scholarship Program - Second Edition
Both publications are scheduled for production in March. We have retained John
Clements, an intern from Grand Valley State University, to work on the Scholarship
Publication and new Foundation Directory.

Partnerships

FORUM of RAGS Annual Meeting
Four staff and CMF Trustee Kari Schlachtenhaufen, attended the third Annual Meeting of
the Forum of RAGS, held earlier this month in Washington. David Lindberg and Gail
Powers-Schaub participated in a special two-day technology session. Dottie Johnson
presented on the lessons learned from CMF's increasing philanthropy projects. Kari
Schlachtenhaufen was elected to the Steering Committee for the FORUM, and we are
excited about a new national pool of funds being developed for the Promotion of
Philanthropy and consider it a potential source for several of CMF's special projects.
Volunteerism SuperConference
Colin Powell will be addressing participants on May 4, at the Lansing Center, for the
second Volunteerism SuperConference. This is his first time in Michigan, and we are
thrilled he will be with us. CMF is working with the Michigan Nonprofit Association,
Volunteer Centers of Michigan, Michigan Community Service Commission, and others
to put together a first-rate conference for over 800 attendees. CMF staff and members'
presentations include the K-12 Education project, the Common Grant Application Form,
and the Michigan Women's Foundation Kent County Girls Initiative. The evening of
May 4 will feature the Fifth Annual Governor's Service Awards dinner and presentations.
National Center on Nonprofit Boards
CMF will be co-hosting the Dearborn site for a May 7th National Teleconference
produced by the National Center on Nonprofit Boards titled Board &amp; Staff: Creating a
Strong Relationship. The Ford Motor Fund is providing the funding for this site.
Grantseeking Seminars
Staff continue to lead workshops for grantseekers upon request. Nine workshops for 340
participants have been conducted this year. Recent partners include a Funders Forum by
the New Center in Ann Arbor and the Business Contributions Council of Detroit.
K-12 Education in Philanthropy Project
The K-12 Project continues to move rapidly toward its initial goal of producing lessons
and curriculum materials for the integration of the teaching of philanthropy in the K -12
school systems. Progress can be measured in two major categories: implementation
progress, and outcomes.

Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project

Status of Kellogg Youth Challenge
April 1 is the date for progress reports on the final challenge grant round. It is anticipated
that at least 2 community foundations will complete their challenge match, and the

�83

remaining 66 will be submitting reports proving successful completion of at least 50% of
their matching requirement. The final date for 100% completion of the match is
December 31, 1998. A potential $16.8 million of Kellogg challenge funds could be
distributed to Michigan community foundations in this final challenge round.

Enhanced Technical Assistance
With the Kellogg Youth Challenge ending in 1998, the majority of community
foundations and their affiliate funds are dealing with two specific challenges: how to keep
the growth momentum going, and how to deal with the need to raise ongoing operating
funds. A new grant from theW. K. Kellogg Foundation is allowing CMF/MCFYP to
provide targeted enhanced technical assistance in the form of "On-Site Mentoring",
"Investment Advisory Services", and "Asset Development through Planned Giving" to
those community foundations with less than $1 0 million in assets.
Dorothy M. Reynolds, who has retired as President of the Community Foundation of
Greater Flint, brings a wealth of experience and respect from her peers, to the newlycreated consultant position of Range Rider. In January, she started on-site mentoring to
targeted foundations in the areas of asset development, pro-active grantmaking, and
operational elements of community foundation management. Specialized firms for
Investment Advisory Services and Planned Giving technical assistance will be selected
by April1.

Team-Up and Collaborative Service Grants - Two special initiatives, supported by the current W. K. Kellogg Challenge Grant, will
assist small community foundations in their efforts to overcome barriers to asset growth,
and to jointly purchase services that will contribute to economies for their operating
budgets. Project TEAM-UP and the Collaborative Service Grants, promote both
partnerships with neighboring community foundations and the joint purchasing of
services. The MCFYP Board of Trustees will review the first grant applications that are
due April1.
Computer Project
With 33 community foundations installed on the Foundation Information Management
Service (FIMS) software, the Computer Committee's energies are now focused on how to
best serve the remaining 23 community foundations that are two small or lack the staffing
to implement FIMS. A new generation of computer grants designed to assist community
foundations under $5 million in assets, or geographic component funds that already own
a computer, will be unveiled in late February 1998. The grants will assist community
foundations with the purchase of hardware, software and training, and will provide for
tracking grants, gifts, donors, and financials on an Excel template designed by former
CMF consultant Nanette Kaiser.
Advisor Trainings
In February, there are two conference calls being held for new advisors. Four regional
Advisor Trainings are also being held in late April.

Y AC Teleconference

On Saturday, March 14, YAC members will be gathering at Michigan State University,
Northwestern Michigan College, in Traverse City, and Bay De Noc Community College,
in Escanaba, for a Teleconference on the issue of violence prevention. Staff from the
National Council on Crime Prevention will serve as faculty, and representatives ofthe 18
YACs participating in the C. S. Mott Foundation-funded violence prevention grants, will
be reporting on their efforts.
Dissemination
Activities to share the lessons learned from MCFYP continue. This month five YAC
members will be involved in three trips: the Regional Black Philanthropy Conference in
Minneapolis, to Pittsburgh, to assist the Mellon, Grable and Jewish Healthcare
Foundations, and to the Council on Foundations Annual Conference, in Los Angeles.

Council of Michigan Foundations
Treasurer's Report to Board
February 1998

I apologize for not being able to be here in person, but would like to share some comments
with you. Dave Lindberg will then respond to questions and provide additional information
that you may desire.

This morning we want to
•

review the Council of Michigan Foundations' Financial Statements for the eight
months ended November 30, 1997

•

review the revised budget projection for 1997-98

•

present to you the recommended 1998-99 CMF budget

I want to assure you that the Audit and Finance Committee, as well as the Executive
Committee, have reviewed these statements and budgets, and is recommending them for your
acceptance and approval.

Financial Statements- November 30. 1997:
We need to start with the CMF and Supporting Organizations Consolidated Balance Sheet as of
November 30, under Tab 2. The first colurim shows the CMF Core and Special Projects
balances, with other organizations following, and the total column at the far right.

dlindberg/boardmet/cmf/1998/M022498c/

�Page 2

The largest balances are, of course, in the MCFYP supporting organization. In the third
column, MCFYP, you will note that the cash and equivalents is unusually high due to over
$10 million provided by the Kellogg Foundation during September. The original grant letters
scheduled these funds for 1998 and 1999, and we are hopeful the early receipt will allow us to
earn increased investment income over the next two years. Notes are also included to provide
additional explanation, as shown.

The following page is the Consolidated Statement of Activities for the period from April 1 to
November 30. Again, the detail for CMF Core Operations, Special Projects and Endowment
Funds is shown, followed by activity for the supporting organizations. This is presented for
information only as the MCFYP and Michigan AIDS Fund statements and activities have been
reviewed by their respective executive committee/boards.

Revised Budget Projection for 1997-98:
The CMF Core Operations Internal Statement of Activities, shown on the following page (page
17), shows the eight months (first column of the previous statement) as compared to the
twelve-month budget approved by the CMF Board and our new projected budget. As you can
see from the figures and supporting notes, the big adjustment is to incorporate the large
success of our annual conference. In fact , as you will note at the bottom of the page, our
change in fund balance has increased from $7,000 to over $40,000. It is this last highlighted
column that we are asking you to approve as the revised budget for 1997-98.

-~~--

�Page 3

At this time, Dave can follow up on any questions you may have, and we would ask for
acceptance of the November 30 statements and approval for the new projected budget.

Recommended Budget for 1998-99:
The CMF recommended budget for 1998-99 is shown under Tab 11. The detail is illustrated
in the first three columns, with the total in the fourth column highlighted. As is the normal
procedure, the MCFYP and AIDS Fund budgets have been reviewed and approved by their
respective boards, and are being included for your information and approval as well.

The CMF Core Operations Budget (the first column) is then shown on the following page with
the 1997-98 projected budget. As you can see, the recommended budget is very similar to this
year's actual figures, except as indicated by the three notes. The highlighted column on page
76 shows the notes and supporting explanations, and additional notes on the Endowment Funds
and Special Projects are included on page 73.

The Audit and Finance Committee continues to review all material at the detail level. The
Executive Committee is also reviewing information at a detail level for the foreseeable future,
knowing it has been reviewed by the Audit and Finance Committee as well. The Board
material, as you can see, has been reduced to focus on the overall financial position and

�Page 4
budget, with the goal to highlight only significant changes. It is hoped that this will provide
the Board with the larger, overall picture, while having the comfort that the details were
reviewed by the Audit and Finance and Executive committees. Our approach, however, is still
one of full disclosure, and the Board members can certainly receive the detail statements and
additional information, if they desire.

If there are any questions at this point, Dave and other management can respond. We would

then ask for approval of the CMF Core Operations, Endowment Funds and Special Projects
1998-99 Budget shown on page 75.

As always, if you have questions and would like additional information, let us know. I look
forward to seeing you at the next CMF Board meeting.

Respectfully submitted,
Dick Rappleye

C. David Campbell, Chairman of the Program Committee, presented the report on the 25th
CMF Annual conference. He noted that this year's anticipated attendance goal will exceed
1100, once again surpassing the record ofthe previous year's conference.
He praised the committee for their help in making this conference such a success. Mr.
Campbell gave logistical information to the Board concerning the registration area for the
hotel, and for the conference itself.
One of the new additions to the venue at this year's conference, he said, are the "Peer Parties"
which will be held Thursday, and promise to be a well-received networking opportunity for
all Council of Michigan Foundations members. Mr. Campbell noted the line-up of names
appearing at this year's conference.
Dorothy A. Johnson thanked Dave Campbell for his superlative work at the helm of the
Program Committee. She then mentioned to the Board, several current items of import:
•

WilliamS. White will not be able to attendJhe conference, and so will not be a part of the
opening panel session. She circulated copies of his letter to all Board members, a copy of
which is appended to the official copy of these minutes.

•

An important CMF and W. K. Kellogg initiative is the launch at this conference of the
book "For the Benefit ofAll: A History of Philanthropy in Michigan". It will be on sale
at the resource/library Gathering Place- "Resource Central", and also available at the
CMF Conference Registration Desk.

•

Also on sale will be the grantmaking computer software package "First Pearl", currently
in use and purchased by eleven (11) CMF members. The price for the package, if
purchased through CMF, is $1500, and after January 1998, the price will be $5000.

Julie Cummings, Co-Chair, of the Host Committee commented on the success of the
conference and those facets of Detroit that the event makes focal points this year. Leonard
Smith commented on the vast project undertaken at the Opera House, and its newly
constructed stage for the Gala Evening.
Dorothy Johnson then noted that there will be approximately 50 William Davidson guests at
the reception and dinner this evening. She urged all Board members to meet and greet these
guests, some of whom are new CMF members.

Date:

June 3, 1998

Memo To:

Board ofTrustees

From:

Richard K. Rappleye,
Chair - Audit &amp; Finance Committee

RE:

CMF &amp; Supporting Organizations March 31, 1998 Audit Report

Resolved: That the CMF Board of Trustees approve the Coopers &amp; Lybrand
March 31, 1998 audit report.
On May 27, 1998 the CMF Audit &amp; Finance Committee met to review the results of the Coopers
&amp; Lybrand audit for the year-ended March 31, 1998. During this meeting both management and
Coopers &amp; Lybrand stated that the audit process exceeded their expectation during the first year
transition from Ernst &amp; Young, who performed the audit in prior years. Coopers &amp; Lybrand

stated that upon completion of the audit, which included testing of the internal control
procedures, there were no Management Letter Comments to report to management or the Audit
Committee. The results ofthe year-end audit were approved by the MCFYP Board of Trustees
at their meeting held on May 28, 1998 and will be reported to the Michigan AIDS_fund Audit
Committee on June 8, 1998. After a detailed review of the enclosed report the Audi"f&amp; ·Finance
Committee is recommending approval of the CMF Combined March 31, 1998 audit report.
Below are some highlights of the significant balances and variances from the prior.year results
included in the attached audit report.

Combined Statements of Financial Position
Cash &amp; Investments
During 1997-98 the remaining balance from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation WKKF III grant of
$6,377,804 and along with the additional funds of $5,000,000 to complete the final round of
challenge grants for MCFYP were received and accounted for the increase in both cash and
investments from the prior year.
The reason for the significant balance in &amp;ash and cash equivalents (which is made up of
primarily of money market accounts) is due to the policy adopted by the ln-¢'e stment Committee
which allows only the permanent or endoVt1nent funds to be invested in eqUities.
Grants Receivable
The decrease from the prior year is due to tli~ receipt of the remaining balance outstanding from
the WKKF III grant for MCFYP.

I IDLI NDBE RIBOA RD MET\CMF\ 1998\ M06 1298 .doc

�B

Accrued Grants Payable
The final round of challenge grant rules for MCFYP were modified to allow community
foundations until March 1, 1998 to raise 50% of their challenge request. For those that reached
the 50% mark they have until December 31, 1998 to raise the remaining 50%. This has
eliminated the all or nothing criteria from previous rounds and thus has increased the liability
from the prior year. The balance at March 31, 1998 represents grants outstanding to 64
community foundations.
Net Assets- Board Designated Fund
The increase from the prior year is due to the investment income earned from the WKKF III
grant for MCFYP that is being placed in the Board Designated Fund.
Net Assets- Permanently Restricted
The permanently restricted net asset balance represents only the contributions received for the
Allen and Mawby endowment funds. The investment income earned on those funds has been
classified as temporarily restricted net assets. It should be noted that the total balance of the
Allen and Mawby Funds totaled $2,183,841 as of March 31, 1998, which you will find
highlighted in the Notes to Combined Financial Statements.

Combined Statement of Activities &amp; Changes in Net Assets
Support and Revenues
Grants and Other Contributions
The increase from the prior year is due to the additional grant dollars received from Kellogg to
complete the final round of challenge grants.
Conferences
Conference expenses increased due to the cost associated with CMF's 25 111 Anniversary Annual
Conference, which was held in November. Thanks to the generous support of our members the
Annual Conference broke even.
Investment Income
Along with the additional grant dollars received from the Kellogg Foundation and the permanent
funds nearing a portfolio mix of 70% equities, we continue to experience a strong increase in
investment income from the prior year.

�c
Expenses
Grants
Grants totaling $11,803,207 were made to approximately 80 community foundations and 60 nonprofits (Michigan AIDS Fund grantees) during fiscal year 1997-98. The increase in grants from
the prior year is due to the additional funds made available from the Kellogg Foundation to
complete the final round of challenge grants and a $500,000 grant received from the State of
Michigan that was used for AIDS prevention initiatives.
Conference
In comparing total conference income to conference expenses, it should be noted that several
meetings and conferences (mainly those for special projects and MCFYP) are funded by the
Grants and Other Contributions line item and therefore receive very little in the way of revenue
from conference registration fees.
Professional Fees
The additional of a $500,000 grant from the State of Michigan (and the associated administrative
time) along with two new special projects under taken by the Michigan AIDS Fund resulted in
the increase from the prior year.
Programming/Administrative
The CMF K-12 project being fully implemented during 1997-98 accounted for the increase from
the prior year.

Report of Independent Accountants
3oard of Trustees
Council of Michigan Foundations
-e have audited the accompanying combined statement of financial position of the Council of
_fi higan Foundations and Supporting Organizations as of March 31, 1998, and the related
combined statements of activities and changes in net assets and cash flows for the year then ended.
These financial statements are the responsibility of management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. The financial statements of the Council of
· chigan Foundations and Supporting Organizations as of and for the year ended March 31, 1997,
·ere audited by other auditors whose report dated April 25, 1997, expressed an unqualified opinion
on those statements.
e 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 our audit provides a reasonable basis for our
opnnon.
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
as of March 31, 1998, and the combined changes in their net assets and their cash flows for the year
then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

�Council of Michigan Foundations and Supporting Organizations
Notes to Combined Financial Statements
1.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

a. Organization: The Council of Michigan Foundations (CMF), an association of foundations
and corporations making grants for charitable purposes, was incorporated in 1975 to
enhance, improve and increase philanthropy in Michigan.
The Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project (MCFYP) and the Michigan AIDS
Fund (MAF) are supporting organizations of CMF under the provisions of Internal Revenue
Code section 509(a)(3). The accompanying financial statements ofCMF have been prepared
on a combined basis to include its affiliated supporting organizations, because CMF's Board
of Trustees exercises significant control over these organizations through the appointment of
board members for each of these organizations.
b. Cash and cash equivalents: Cash equivalents consist of money market funds and U.S.
Treasury securities maturing within ninety days. These are carried at fair market value,
which approximates cost.
c. Investments: All investments are carried at estimated fair market value, using quoted
market prices. Net realized gains and losses and unrealized increases or decreases resulting
from changes in the market value of investments are included in the combined statements of
activities and changes in net assets. The realized gain or loss on the sale of investments is
the difference between the proceeds received and the cost of specific investments sold.
d. Property, Plant and Equipment: Property, plant and equipment, are stated at estimated
market value at the date donated or at cost if purchased. Such donations are reported as
unrestricted support unless the donor has restricted the donated asset to a specific purpose.
Assets donated with explicit restrictions regarding their use or contributions of cash that
must be used to acquire property and equipment are reported as restricted support. Absent
donor stipulations regarding how long those donated assets must be maintained, CMF
reports expirations of donor restrictions when the donated or acquired assets are placed in
service as instructed by the donor. CMF reclassifies temporarily restricted net assets to
unrestricted net assets at that time. Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method
over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Upon retirement or disposal of property, plant
and equipment, the asset and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the
respective accounts, and the resulting gain or loss is recorded in the statement of activities.
e. Net Asset Classifications: The three net asset groups used for reporting purposes in the
accompanying combined financial statements are as follows:

Unrestricted Net Assets--Reflect assets that have not been restricted as to use by
donors. Certain of these assets have been designated by the governing boards of CMF
and its supporting organizations to be used for a specific purpose. These
board-designated funds reflect investment income earned on Challenge grant assets
that will be used to fund community foundation programming beyond the Year 2000.

�Notes to Combined Financial Statements, Continued

1.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued:
e. Net Asset Classifications, continued:
Temporarily Restricted Net Assets--Reflect contributed assets whose use by CMF
and its supporting organizations has been limited by donors for a specific time
period or purpose.
Permanently Restricted Net Assets--Reflect contributions with donor-imposed
restrictions that do not expire and that allow, in certain cases, only the income
earned thereon to be expended. Income earned that is restricted for a period of
time or purpose is recorded as a temporarily restricted asset.

f. Grants Payable: Grants are recognized as an expense when approved by the governing
boards of CMF and its supporting organizations, if unconditional, or when the related
conditions are met by the recipient, if conditional. Grants payable recorded in the
accompanying combined statements of financial position are generally expected to be
paid within one year.
g. Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
h. Reclassifications: Certain amounts in the fiscal 1997 combined financial statements
have been reclassified to conform with the fiscal 1998 presentation.

Supporting Organizations, continued:
Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project, continued

The Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project (MCFYP) was incorporated in
November 1993, with a separate board of trustees to oversee the grant-making activities of
the project. The W.K. Kellogg Foundation contributed sixty-nine percent of the total
support and revenues for 1998 and 1997. This donor also comprises ninety-five percent and
eighty-nine percent of the grants receivable balance at March 31, 1998 and 1997,
respectively.
MCFYP received an additional $2,600,000 grant from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation to
provide funds for the computerization of Michigan's community foundations, support for
foundations that assume responsibility for assisting small affiliate community foundations
in their development, and extended support for the youth project, including camp subsidies
and national leadership conference funding.
In August of 1996 the W.K. Kellogg Foundation provided a $10,000,000 grant to MCFYP
for the Kellogg Youth Initiative Partnership program. The purpose of this program will be
to fund future youth programs located in a portion of Detroit known as the Northern High
School Area, Calhoun County, and Marquette and Alger counties. The W.K. Kellogg
Foundation has transferred $5,670,110 of their $10,000,000 commitment for this project
through fiscal year 1998.

administering revenues and expenses of a collaborative funding grant program previously
administered by CMF, which acts as a vehicle for CMF members and others to
cooperatively fund AIDS-related projects in Michigan. MAF was incorporated in
November 1993, with a separate board of trustees appointed by CMF, to oversee the
growing activities and grant-making responsibilities of this program.

To the Board of Trustees and Audit Committee of the
Council of Michigan Foundations
We have completed our audit of the financial statements of the Council of Michigan Foundations
(CMF) as of and for the year ended March 31, 1998. We have been afforded full access to all
records and received full cooperation from CMF's management.
The scope of our audit was conducted as planned and discussed with management in February 1998.
Our audit was designed to provide reasonable assurance that errors and irregularities that are material
to the combined financial statements would be detected. In planning and performing our audit, we
considered the internal control structure for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the combined
financial statements. We noted no significant matters relating to the internal control structure and its
operation.
-----

In today's complex business environment, audit- committees play a vital role in overseeing the
financial reporting process. Although reliable financial reporting is primarily management's
responsibility, the importance of the Audit Committee and its role has increased steadily over the
years. The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Division for CPA Firms membership
requirements state that the external auditor should communicate certain matters to the Audit
Committee at least annually. Such matters have been summarized and included in this report.
Very truly yours,

Coopers &amp; Lybrand L.L.P. is a member of Coopers &amp; Lybrand International, a limited li ability association incorporated in Switzerland.

Memo To:

Board of Trustees

From:

Richard K. Rappleye
Chair - Audit &amp; Finance Committee

RE:

CMF Core Operations March 31, 1998 Internal Statement of Activities.

Tab3

Resolved: That the CMF Board of Trustees approve the March 31, 1998 CMF Core
Operations Internal Statement of Activities.
In keeping with our policy of reporting the year-end actual results compared to budget for the
CMF Core Operations, we have enclosed the CMF Core Operations Internal Statement of
Activities for the year ended March 31, 1998. The enclosed statements were reviewed and
approved by the Audit &amp; Finance Committee during year-end meeting held on May 27, 1998.
The Michigan AIDS Fund and MCFYP Board of Trustees have already approved their year-end
actual results compared to budget and therefore have been included in this section for
informational purposes only.
For comparison purposes this memo will deal with the actual year-end results compared to the
12-Month Projected column. As you may recall. the CMF Board of Trustees approved the
12-Month Projected column as part of the financial report that was presented at the February 24,
1998 Board meeting.

CMF Core Operations
Statement of Activities &amp; Changes in Net Assets
Note 1: Member Contributions
With 59 new members joining in 1997-98, CMF continues to experience an increase in
membership dues and a favorable variance from budget.
Note 2: Conference Revenue &amp; Expenses
The special events associated with the 25th Anniversary Annual Conference accounted for the
variance from budget in both revenue (which came in the form of contributions from the Host
Committee members) and expenses. Of special note is the fact that the Annual Conference
financial results netted a break-even.
Note 3 : Investment Income
Investment income exceeded management's original estimate due to the earnings received from
special project funding.

Community Foundations Update

Kellogg Youth Challenge

-~--.

Since the last Board Meeting, two more community foundations have now completed the
Youth Challenge: the Greenville Area Foundation and the Community Foundation ofthe
Holland/Zeeland Area- making a total of23. Sixty-eight community foundations are
continuing their efforts to complete the Youth Challenge when it ends December 31, 1998.
We look forward to distributing a number of crystal boxes at the Annual Conference this fall,
and even more in 1999!

Project Team Up Grants
The goal of the Project Team Up grants is to promote collaborative activities that will
encourage regionalization, economies of scale in operations, and growth in endowment assets
- all resulting in independent community foundations and affiliates better able to serve the
citizens of Michigan. The MCFYP Board of Trustees at their May 28, 1998 meeting
authorized funding ofup to $200,000 for five Project Team Up Grants, leaving $1.3 million
available for grants in the September application cycle.
Collaborative Service Grants
The goal of the Collaborative Service Grant is to promote collaborative activities that
encourage economies of scale in core operating budgets resulting in independent community
foundations and affiliates better able to serve the citizens of Michigan. The MCFYP Board
of Trustees also authorized funding of up to $20,000 for one Collaborative Service Grant that
will allow for the purchase of joint auditing services in the Upper Peninsula for this round of
applications, with $80,000 remaining for grants in the September application cycle.
Enhanced Technical Assistance Services
MCFYP has received an Enhanced Technical Assistance grant from the W.K. Kellogg
Foundation for $1.7 million to provide targeted assistance aimed at growing the assets of

smaller community foundations and also contributing to economies in their operating
budgets. The three goals are:
1. To provide extended on-site mentoring for community foundation Executive Directors
and Board of Trustees. Dorothy Reynolds, recently retired President of the Community
Foundation for Greater Flint, is providing this service on a part-time basis for CMF. She
has already visited with more than 15 community foundations, including a week in the
U.P. and is receiving rave reviews for her help.
2. To provide investment advisory services. MCFYP has contracted with Fund Evaluation
Group of Cincinnati, Ohio, to provide investment advisory services to community
foundations with up to $16 million in assets. The objectives of the service are:
• To provide one-on-one technical assistance to 15 community foundations in the asset
range of $5 to $16 million.
• To provide phone consultation services to an additional 25 community foundations
each with assets of less than $16 million.
• To provide annual regional trainings.
3. To help community foundations with planned giving. CMF is currently identifying
contractors to provide the following assistance:
• First Deal Service-to provide up to $2,000 in assistance for 10 executive directors to
complete their first planned gift
• Phone Consultations
• Trustee Phone Education Calls-facilitated conference calls for community
foundation trustees with a focus on donor stories, that can provide incentive and
information for talking to friends and business associates about planned giving.
Community Foundation Academy for New Trustees and Staff
The Community Foundation Academy for New Trustees and Staff is a ten-session, five day
academy covering community foundation basics in detail. Designed for new trustees,
executive directors, and other professional staff, the academy is taught by experienced
Michigan community foundation professionals. Extensive resource materials are provided to
assist in building local community foundation libraries and files.
The academy encourages mastery of current community foundation best practices and
operational elements. Ample time is provided for questions and answers and detailed
exchange between participants and faculty. This year's academy will originate in Lansing
and will be teleconferenced via interactive audio and video links with Marquette and
Gaylord.
Topics include:

1) History, Definition, and Mission - Characteristics and Roles of a Community Foundation

that session, will be made available for national and international distribution. In addition, a
companion publication "Growing Community Foundations- Lessons Learned from the
Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project, 1991-1998," will be available for
distribution in July, 1998.

Calhoun CARES Update
MCFYP is a partner in Calhoun CARES, an effort to promote collaborative activities around
volunteerism and community service in Calhoun County. The Calhoun CARES initiative has
focused on:
• Encouraging a working relationship between the three community foundations and and
two geographic component funds in the county,
• Having the members of the five Youth Advisory Committees initiate and implement
countywide youth projects, joint trainings and leadership opportunities,
• Promoting county-wide awareness of youth as valuable community resources and
problem-solvers, and
• Assessing the needs and resources of youth, and nonprofit, service and volunteer
organizations that serve youth.
Highlights of collaborative efforts include:
•

•
•

Five inserts to Scene Magazine, a countywide magazine were professionally designed and
executed to highlight all three community foundations and two geographic component
funds. Each issue focuses on a different topic such as the youth advisory committee, and
scholarships.
A Countywide Scholarship Fund was established as a joint venture ofthe three
community foundations and two affiliates.
A Countywide Youth Advisory Committee was organized with volunteer representatives
from each of the 5 YACs, resulting in successful youth initiated activities, such as a

�49

matching grant from the C.S. Matt Foundation for a Violence Prevention Workshop. As
a spin-off from the workshop, local YACs have written and performed skits on nonviolence for 4th grade students in their school districts. After the performance, the YAC
members provide the 4th graders with mini-grant applications, help them decide on
appropriate projects for them to apply for grant dollars, offer T A for writing the grant,
and ultimately assist with the 4th grade project after it has been funded. YAC members
have become pen pals with their 4th grade grant recipients, and continue as role models
throughout the school year.
The Calhoun CARES project has been extremely successful in meeting the goals of the
initiative. Between June and November 1998, the Countywide YAC will create and sponsor
five community service projects (one for each community) with participation by YACers
from all community foundations at each service project. The design, development, and
execution of the projects will be youth-led and will be documented in a video for future
distribution for other YAC's interested in replicating the process. The participating
community foundations and affiliates have formed the Calhoun Community Foundation
Alliance and committed to the 5 goals of America's Promise.
Computer Project Update
--.

The Computer Committee is focusing on the reporting needs of the smaller foundations.
Currently there are 25 independent foundations that are not on FIMS, and an estimated 10-11
that are on FIMS and struggling with the complexity of the software. The Committee has
taken the following steps over the past several months.
•

•

•

Added non-FIMS foundations staff to the committee to complement the current members,
which includes the original venture foundations that developed the software for this
project.
Hired Plante and Moran (a public accounting firm who has experience with community
foundations) to analyze the reporting needs ofthe smaller foundations and make a
recommendation on what they feel should be the next steps to address those needs.
Instructed FERA to complete their evaluation of the impact that FIMS has had on the
community foundations in Michigan.

Following the completion of these steps, a plan will be presented to the MCFYP Board on
possible software modifications to address the needs of the smaller staffed foundations.

1998 Mawby Fund for Kids Summer Internship
With assistance from the Mawby Fund for Kids, CMF is proud to welcome two full-time
interns for the summer. Stacey Hall, alumnae of The Community Foundation of the
Holland/Zeeland Area, is assisting with the planning and organization of the 1998 Adventure
Tours Leadership activities. Stacey has a broad background in community service work,

�50

including work for a medical mission in Honduras. Janet Bromley, of Spring Lake, is
working on her honor's thesis at Western Michigan University, and wishes to rebuild the
Western Michigan Youth Leadership Institute, a discontinued program she was involved with
as a youth. Janet will be assisting with the Summer Edition ofthe Yackety YAC and other
research activities within CMF.
1998 State Youth Leadership Event
Adventure Tours '98 is from June 25-28 in Lansing. Two hundred YACers will start with
one of five bus tours that feature adventures dealing with environment, transportation,
design, theater, and technology. Each tour is intended to provide an opportunity for YACers
to see and participate in activities throughout Michigan that they have not seen or
experienced before. All participants will gather for the firial two days at Michigan State
University for a state rally sharing experiences and participating in sessions focusing on
leadership, philanthropy, and youth public policy issues.
1998 MCFYP/Pistons Awards
We are pleased to again have the State Awards Program sponsored with the Pistons-Palace
Foundation. The MCFYP State Youth Advisory-Board Members will be having a conference
call next week to select the YACs to be recognized for proactive grantmaking and
community service and the outstanding YAC Advisors.
MCFYP State Youth Advisory Board
The State Youth Advisory Board will be taking a leadership role in presenting testimony
before Senator Schuette and Representative Schower at the Adventure Tours Conference, in
Lansing, on a bill that would allow youth ages 16 to 18 to serve on the boards of nonprofit
organizations with vote.
MCFYP Dissemination Activities
Since the last CMF Board meeting, YACers have been involved in trips to: the Midwest
Black Philanthropy Conference in Minneapolis; Western Pennsylvania Grantmakers in
Pittsburgh; the Annual Family Foundations Conference of the Council on Foundations, in
Los Angeles; and the Canadian Community Foundations Conference, in Calgary. More than
500 grantmakers have been reached through these activities. To offer just two examples,
YACs are now being started throughout British Columbia thanks to the Vancouver
Foundation, and in Saskatoon, with support from the Muttart Foundation. Staff is now
working on a second edition of Resources and Guidelines for Starting a YAC.
