National Legislative Issues
Revision of Goal 4: To repeal the excise tax on private foundations, replacing the
previous goal of reducing the excise tax to a flat one percent.
State Legislative Issues
Addition of new Goal to support simplification of the Charitable Solicitation Act.
Mr. Collier than reviewed the Committee's recommendation that the Board endorse the

concept of supporting the creation of a bi-partisan philanthropy caucus by the leadership
ofthe State Legislature. The goal is to have a core group of legislators familiar with
philanthropy who can help educate new colleagues arriving in the Legislature. This
concept is on response to term limits.
Upon motion duly made, supported!, and unanimously approved, it was
RESOLVED that CMF encourage formation of a Philanthropy Caucus by
the leadership of the State Legislature as a bi-partisan group of up to 20 state
legislators representing both the Senate and the House who can inform their
colleagues about the work of foundations and corporate giving programs and
encourage them to use CMF as a resource.
•

Education-Networking Task Force

Task Force Chair Elizabeth Sullivan reported! on the work of her Task Force and the two

recommendations on educational programming. She also reviewed the Decision Making
Criteria endorsed by the Task Force to assist staff in reviewing member requests for
education programming.
Upon motion duly made, supported, and unanimously approved, it was
RESOLVED that the CMF Board of Trustees approves a Core Curriculum
for 2002 that will cover five key competency areas (grantmaking,
governance, finance, administration, and communications).
Ms. Sullivan led the discussion about issue programming and the Task Force's
recommendation that up to three topics be covered each year. She noted that the issues re
listed are examples rather than an all-inclusive list.
Upon motion duly made, supported! and unanimously approved, it was
RESOLVED that CMF offer educational programming on up to three issue
areas of high concern to members each year.
•

Technology Task Force

Task Force Chair Dick Rappleye reported on the initial work of the three co-convenors of
this Task Force and the recognition that their work would begin after the other Task
Forces and Committees have completed their assignments. He noted that the CoConvenors are assisting staff in responding to three short terms needs related to the 2001

Annual Conference. Gail Schaub offered a brief demonstration of the Zoomerang system
being recommended and commented that the anticipated cost of the pilot in 2002 should
not exceed $2,000.
Upon motion duly made, supported!, and unanimously approved, it was
RESOLVED that a " Rapid Response System" to obtain member feedback on
time sensitive issues be piloted in 2002.
Trustee Julie Cmmnings noted the importance of increasing the use of technology,
specifically email, for staff/Board communication.
•

Services Task Force

Services Task Force Chair C. David Campbell led the discussions of the three
recommendations being presented for action, noting that their value in helping staff with
time allocation was more important than revenue generation. The services will not be
broadly marketed during the pilot because there is not sufficient staff capacity to respond.
It was noted that the Membership Committee will be consulted on fees.
Upon motion duly made, supported!, and unanimously approved, it was
RESOLVED that a pilot program be approved to charge members fees for
individualized technical services on board training, grantmaking guidelines
and program d evelopment, strategic planning, exec.utive searches, and other

services with guidelines for setting fees to be developed with input from the
Finance Committee.
Campbell also noted the role that CMF plays in helping to create foundations and that it
cannot be taken for granted that a new foundation will become a member.
Upon motion duly made, supported, and unanimously approved, it was
RESOLVED that the provision of the following services to eligible nonmembers be offered as an enticement to membership:
a) complimentary consultation on foundation establishment, limited
to providing a "how to" guide and verbal orientation.
b) If requested, foundation establishment services for a fee with a
membership dues rebate possible upon joining CMF.
Finally, Campbell noted the Task Force's discussion of individual services being
provided to grantseekers and members strong feeling that such requests should not
include individual searches but be limited to copies of the complimentary "Survey and
biformationfor Seeking" publication and a referral to one of the Foundation Center
Cooperating Collections.
RESOLVED that the Board of Trustees approves the elimination of any
individualized service to grantseekers beyond the current "Survey and
Information for Seeking" now used.

Marketing/Communications Task Force

Task Force Chair Neeta Delaney explained the initial work of the Task Force in
reviewing all of the many publications produced by CMF and the recommendation that
the current logo and positioning statement be updated, given the growing competitive
marketplace for philanthropic membership associations. She introduced Karl Olmsted of
Olmsted Associates in Flint whose fim1 has done award winning work for the C.S. Mott
Foundation, and has been retained to assist with these tasks. Olmsted presented three
options for a revised logo and three options for a new positioning statement. He also
introduced four color palettes - the existing light b lue, a royal blue, a blue green and a
light green. During lunch, the Trustees had the opportunity to vote on their first choices.
Ms. Delaney noted that there was consensus on the logo and color palette.

Upon motion duly made, supported, and unanimously approved, it was
RESOLVED that an updated logo and color (as attached to these minutes) be
adopted for use beginning at the 29th Annual Conference.
Ms. Delaney then led a discussion with Mr. Tobin's help about the role of the positioning
statement. There was consensus by the Board that such a statement had to recognize the
organization's role as a support to both foundations and corporations. A vote was held on
the three statements w ith the most votes, but not a majority of those present, for
"Supporting a Culture of Giving'' Mr. Campbell indicated that the feelings of the Board
would be shared with the Task Force with the hope of still having a new positioning
statement to share at the Annual Members Meeting on November 1, 2001.

•

Membership C ommittee

Conm1ittee Chair Gil Hudson shared the results of the Membership Committee Meeting,
and the four proposed resolutions for consideration. He noted that the Committee was
still working on a number of issues, including those members that do not pay the
recommended dues amount. He reviewed each of the membership categories before
introducing a resolution to amend four categories and eliminate two as noted below.

Upon motion duly made, supported, and unanimously approved, it was
RESOLVED that the CMF Board of Trustees approve the following changes
in membership criteria as endorsed by the Membership Committee and
recommended by the Community Foundation Committee where
appropriate:
•

Modify the criteria for Community Foundations to reflect the current
state law for community foundations eligible for the community
foundation tax credit.

�CMF Board of Trustees
Minutes of October 2, 2001
Page 6

•

Redefine Community Foundation Affiliate to be limited to those
participating in the Kellogg Youth Challenge and to further revoke their
voting privileges as a CMF member.

•

Eliminate the category of Community Foundation Donor Advised Fund
by grandfathering current members and closing the category to new
members.

•

Eliminate the category of "Friends" of CMF.

•

Change the language in the Out-of-State Associates criteria from "must"
to "should" have a grantmaking presence in Michigan.

•

Amend the criteria for Public Foundations to include "have a permanent
endowment" and "make substantial grants for broad charitable
purposes."

Mr. Hudson reviewed the status of 66 members that are now more than two years
delinquent in paying dues, noting that despite best efforts to have their memberships
renewed by the end of the fiscal year on April! , 2002, up to 50 members could be lost.
He indicated the Committee's recommendation to terminate the membership of those two
years behind as of April 1, 2002 and that the Board adopt such a tennination policy.
Upon motion duly made, supported, and unanimously approved, it was
RESOLVED further that a policy be approved to terminate membership for
non-responsive members that are more than two years delinquent on
membership dues.
Mr. Hudson summarized the Committee's Membership Retention Plan and Development
Plan for 2002 (attached to these minutes) with a five-year goal of 578 by 200617. He
explained that the goal had been well crafted with staff and reflects projected
membership gains and losses including the anticipated loss of 50 non-dues paying
members. Trustees can look forward to being asked at the February 2002 Meeting to
assist with membership recruitment in 2002.
Upon motion duly made, supported, and unanimously approved, it was
RESOLVED further that the Membership Development Plan/Campaign for
2002, including the goal of 578 by 2006/7 be approved.
Mr. Collier then introduced a three-part resolution from the Membership Committee. He

noted that there was consensus by the Committee that our two lowest dues categories of
$ 150 and $360 paid by 107 members are too low, and that the minimum dues should be
raised to $500. In addition, there was consensus that the dues categories should be
examined with the idea of reducing the ranges in the categories to better capture the
growth in assets that will occur over time by members. Finally, there was agreement by

�CMF Board of Trustees
Minutes of October 2, 2001
Page 7

the Committee that the Finance Committee should examine a dues increase as projected
budgets are developed for 2002 and beyond. After discussion on these three points, the
Board decided to defer action for further analysis by the Finance Committee.
Policy on Inclusion

Mr. Tobin and Ms. Rosenberg facilitated a brief discussion on a statement on inclusion
for CMF to adopt as part of the Strategic Planning Process. In reviewing six sample
components, there was consensus that a policy statement needed to be action oriented and
that inclusion needs to be better reflected in CMF's values statement. The item was
referred for further discussion at the next Board Meeting.
Next Steps
Mr. Campbell indicated that because there was not sufficient time, we would defer

discussion of the October 2000 Guiding Questions and the vision metrics to the next
meeting. He noted the inclusion of the fall calendar for Next Steps in the Board book and
that he plans on asking Task Force and Committee Chairs in 2002 to join with the
members of the Executive Conunittee in expanding the Strategic Planning Committee
into an ongoing Long Range Planning Committee.
The next scheduled meeting of the Board of Trustees will be held October 31, 2001, at
the Marriott Renaissance Hotel in Detroit from 9:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. There being no
further business to come before the board, Chair, C. David Campbell adjourned the
meeting at 3:00p.m.

Re:

Measuring Our Progress: Now and in the Future

CMF's Strategic Planning process has been guided by questions developed by the Board
at its October 2000 meeting. Measuring our progress against answering these questions
is an important step in completing Phase n of our process.
Once CMF begins implementing the 2002-2006 Strategic Plan, it wiU important to
measure progress in meeting the goals set out in that Plan. The Vision Metrics that
constitute an important component of the Plan have been in draft form since winter
2000/01.

Therefore, during the October 2, meeting, Bob Tobin will guide t he Board through a
discussion about:
•
•

Our progress in successfully addressing the Board's October 2000 Guiding
Questions; and
T he draft Vision Metrics and changes needed to more closely tie those to t he
evolving Stra tegic Pla n.

To inform our discussion, the following background materials are provided:
• The Board's Guiding Questions
• The current draft Vision Metrics
• Board and Member Desires &amp; Aspirations for CMF
• Opportunities identified through the SWOT Analysis

G uiding Questions: October 2000
I.

How can we best serve the evolving needs of an increasingly diverse, special ized
membership?
2. Are we a state, regional, national, or international organization?
3. What is our desired relationship with state government?
4. How do we define and manage our evolving role as an intermediary?
5. How do we resolve tensions between our dual roles of membership service and
philanthropic leader?
6. What is our hierarchy of roles and initiatives relative to our mission?
7. What metrics are most important to us as we look into the future?

Long Range Plannin g Committee
Involving a broad spectrum ofCMF members and Trustees in the development of
guidelines. policies, strategies, and tactics for the 2002-2006 Strategic Plan has proven to
be a very successful strategy. Trustees who chair the Task Forces and Comm ittees have
provided invaluable guidance and direction to CMF staff. Members and Trustees serving

�51

as members of these groups have provided hig hly informed input on ways in which CMF
can increase its value to members and achieve its mission and newly articulated vision.
To complete this process, CMF wishes to maximize the added value of Trustee leadership
by expanding the current Long-Range Planning Committee to include Trustees serving as
chairs of Phase 1I Task Forces and Committees and select CMF staff who have served as
lead staff for these groups.
The expanded Committee would meet in late fall to look at all of the recommendations
that will be forthcoming from the Task Forces on Education/Networking, MarketingCommunications, and Services and from Committees on Government Relations and
Membership. Its goal will be to provide leadership on the integration of these
recommendations into a comprehensive plan for CMF's future. The Committee's fmal
recommendations wilJ inform the Technology Task Force.
Phase ll Task Forces &amp; Committees
Following the October 2, 200 I Board meeting, CMF staff. guided b) Phase II Task
Forces and Committees, will complete their recommendations as articulated in the
Strategic Planning Update found under Tab One.

�Values Statements

We Build Relationships to Last - with our members first- and with the philanthropic,
non-profit, private, and public sectors, and the general public second - through
advocating and networking. Our goal is to know every member well, to represent every
individual engaged in organized, Michigan-based philanthropy, and to include a diverse
group of members in our thinking and planning. Our existing and future relationships
with leaders in all sectors are built to bring added value to our members individually and
collective!y.
We Act as A Servant-Leader for organized philanthropy - by promoting and increasing
philanthropy in Michigan. We serve by understanding and meeting members' individual
needs. We lead by anticipating and then meeting members' collective needs. In this role,
we espouse the highest ethical standards. Our success is measured by the health and
vitality of organized philanthropy in Michigan and by the level of civil society in our
state- now and in the future.
We Have, Share, and Seek Knowledge - with members and in support of membersthrough education and networking. Our knowledge is personjfied by staffwith deep
expertise in philanthropic principles and best practices worldwide - from the technical to
the topical to the philosophical, and with skills in research and communications; by
members who continually redefine best practices and represent expertise in a vast array of
subjects and on a wide range of issues; and by partners and collaborators who enrich our
understanding oft he needs for and impact of organized philanthropy.
We Strive for Excellence io Everything We Do - through a strong infrastructure-- clear
goals, strong leadership, expert staff and effective management systems - that enable us
to be nimble, entrepreneurial, and good stewards of our resources. These qualities allow
us to provide our members with the best, most comprehensive services available to
organized philanthropy anywhere. We believe to achieve excellence requires CMF as a
who le-- each staff member and the Board of Trustees -- to reflect, innovate,
communicate, grow, and improve. Our goal is to have all members recognize CMF as
the most valuable association to which they belong.

May 11, 2001 Board Meeting
At the May 11,2001 Board meeting, staff provided Trustees with a summary of the
results of the May 10, 2001 Board session. In addition, a plan for Phase II of the
Strategic Planning process was presented and approved. That plan called for the creation
of special task forces and expanded Committees to be led by Board members, comprised
of a representative mix of members, and supported by staff. Their charge would be to
develop promising strategies and tactics in six key areas through a highly inclusive,
participatory process.
By late June, the Task Forces and Committees were fooned. They are generously served
by 54 members, 15 Trustees, and Bob Tobin who is a member of the MarketingCommunications Task Force. In addition, the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, the Kresge
Foundation and the Charles Stewart Mott Fooodation generously agreed to serve as coconveners of the Technology Task Force. For your information we have included the
Task Force and Committee Rosters and a calendar of Task Force and Committee
meetings.
In May and June, CMF staff consolidated all aspects of the Strategic Plan to define and
articulate the purpose, scope of work, goals, and timelines for each Task Force and
Committee. An orientation document was provided to Chairs who were convened via
conference call to develop a common vision for moving forward with Phase II. 'In
addition, staff examined the six areas to be covered by the Task Forces and Committees
as step one in the process of preparing Briefing Papers that have been provided to each
group to inform and guide their work. Finally, CMF management met with the
Technology Task Force co-conveners to review organizational goals and priorities.

In July, August and September, Task Forces and Committees met in person and via
conference call to begin developing recommendations. Most groups have met twice.
The Technology Task Force had its first orientation conference call in September. The
Membership Committee will have its first all-day meeting on September 28lh.
An overview of the six Task Forces and Committees. their chairs and goals follows.

RE:

Recommended Action Item

The Education and Networking Task Force has had two productive meetings and
approved at its September 6, 2001 meeting the following action item for discussion and
approval:
RESOLVED that the CMF Board of Trustees approve a Core Curriculum for 2002
that will cover five key competency areas (governance, fmance, administration,
grantmaking, and communications) and up to three issue areas of high concern to
members.
Background
The Education and Networking Task Force endorses the creation of a regular series of
educational programs that address the five competency areas of governance, finance,
administration, grantrnaking and communication. The Committee has developed the
following criteria for offering these programs:
•
•
•
•
•

Is designed for members first, non-member grantrnakers second
Is offered at introductory, intermediate, and advanced levels
Is offered on a three-year cycle (some programs multiple times during that period,
others only once)
Is delivered in a variety of live and electronic formats
Is offered by CMF, by CMF in partnership with others, or under CMF
sponsorship.

In addition, the Committee feels it is important to enhance the five core competency areas
through special programs for targeted audiences (by role, foundation type, issue). Such
programming will include up to three programs on high priority issues of concern to
members that are developed in consultation with the Public Policy Committee.
The Committee has created the following list of high priority issues of concern and will
ask CMF members to prioritize these issues at the Annual Conference and on-line
following the Conference. Where appropriate CMF will partner with national affmity
groups of grantmakers to produce these issue focused educational programs.

K-12 Education
Access to Health Care
Elderly/Elder Care
Crime/Corrections
Workforce Preparation
Digital Divide
Sprawl/Land use (environment)
Child Care
Youth
Violence Prevention
Diversity
Organizational Effectiveness ofNPO Sector
Civil Society/Community Building
Families &amp; Society
Finally, the Committee has developed the following Decision-Making Criteria to assist
staff in responding to requests for educational programming.
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•

Is the program consistent with both CMF's mission and purposes?
Does the program have broad appeal to the general membership or to a targeted
segment of the membership?
Does the curriculum represent current best practices and new research findings?
Will the program challenge the membership to do bener?
Is there a compelling need or opportunity to justify the program?
Is CMF's involvement imperative to the success of the program?
Does CMF have the capacity to develop and deliver the program (time, staff,
knowledge, funds, etc.)?
Does the program present an opportunity to partner and/or collaborate?
Does the program offer CMF a fund development opportunity?
Will CMF's involvement in the program impact its role in the community as a
neutral (non-partisan) convener?
Does the program present an opportunity to attract diverse audiences?
Does the program have any implications for public policy?
How will program costs be covered (dues, registration fees, grants, other)?
If a member is asking CMF to prepare and present the program, is that member
able to contribute to some or all of its costs?

Technology Task Force Recommendations

The Technology Task Force co-conveners (Tim Dechant, Director of Technology, W.K.
Kellogg Foundation; Richard Lowell Dunlap, Program Officer-Iofonnation Systems,
K resge Foundation; Gavin Clabaugh Vice President and Dick Rappleye, Vice President,
Charles Stewart Mott Foundation) have had several productive meetings together and
with CMF management and are proposing the following action item for discussion and
approval:

RESOLVED that the CMF Board of Trustees approve piloting "Rapid Response
·
System" in 2002 to obtain member feedback on time sensitive issues.
Backgrow1d
The TeclmoJogy Task Force was formed in summer 200 I and is being co-convened by
theW.K. Kellogg Foundation, The Kresge Foundation, and the Charles Stewart Mon
Foundation. Lead CMF staff for the Task Force is Gail Powers-Scbaub, Information
Services Manager.
The co-conveners have met several times with Ms. Powers-Schaub to develop a Briefing
Paper that has been shared with the !!-member Task Force. On September II , 2001 , the
Task Force met via conference call to discuss the Briefing Paper, its goals and timeline,
and next steps. Prior to that meeting, the co-conveners met with CMF management to
review immediate priorities for the Annual Members Meeting at the Annual Conference
related that could be met with technology.
The rapid response system that is being recommended is call Zoomerang and will allow
CMF to obtain instant feedback from members, with the ability to target specific
constituencies. Zoom erang is a division of MarketTools, the global dominant ASP for
eResearc h and efeedback. The company provides advanced Web-hosted technology a nd
advisory services to help businesses conduct cost-effective and secure Web-based market
research. The results are captured and presented in graphically-rich formats in real-timewhich allows users to measure incoming responses and act on the findings very quickly.

�30

We hope to demonstrate this electronic system at the Annual Conference through inviting
members to vote on the Priority Issues discussed in the Education-Networking Task
Force Report. The cost for Zoomerang is $500 for the first 1,000 survey responses with
$500 for each additional 1,000 responses. We anticipate using the service four times in
2002 for budget of$2,000. Our first use of the services will be covered in this current
budget. This Rapid Response System will allow members to have input into future
directions related to CMF's Leadership purpose, specifically, opportunities to serve as an
intermediary and priorities for issues facing Michigan that are of interest and concern to
m embers.
The Technology Task Force's work will commence in full upon completion of
recommendations by the other Committees and Task Forces. It's goals are to develop
recommendations in three areas:
• A long-term technology plan for CMF
• A process for on-going review/revision of CMF technology platform
• Use of technology for specific programs, products, services, (drawing on
recommendations from other task forces)
Among the many areas the Task Force will address are two that have been identified by
other Task Forces and CMF management. They are: ( I) electronic delivery systems for
education programs to respond to members' expressed desire for on-demand access to
information, resources, and educational opportunities; and (2) a restructuring of the CMF
website to increase its value to members.

September 13, 200 l meeting the following action items for cliscussion and approval:
RESOLVED that the CMF Board of Trustees approve a pilot program to charge
members fees for individualized technical services on board training, grantmaking
guidelines and program development, strategic planning, executive searches, and
other services with guidelines for setting fees to be developed with input from the
Finance Committee.
RESOLVED that the CMF Board of Trustees approve the provision of the following
services to eligible non-members as an enticement to membership:
(a) One complimentary consultation on foundation establishment, Limited to
providing a "how to" guide and verbal orientation.
(b) If requested, foundation establishment services for a fee with a membership
dues rebate possible upon joining CMF.
RESOLVED that the CMF Board of Trustees approve the elimination of any
individualized service to grantseekers beyond tbe current "Survey and Information
for Seeking" now used.
Background
The Services Task Force was formed in summer 2001 and is served by 12 CMF members
including 4 members of its Board ofTrustees. Lead CMF staff for this Task Force is
Susan Howbert, Director, Family Philanthropy Services and Southeast Michigan
Program.
The Task Force met on August l, 2001 for a full -day meeting where it developed several
recommendations regarding services CMF might provide to members, eligible nonmembers, grantseekers and others. There was consensus that CMF should establish a fee
system for inclividualized technical assistance requested by members. For example, one
executive search has recently been completed and another is under development. There
was also agreement that CMF should not widely advertise these services in this pilot
stage.

There was consensus on the part of the Task Force that CMF should provide a free
consultation for those interested in starting a foundation. However, a fee should be
charged if services requested include sample documents and individualized assistance.
There was agreement that CMF should not provide free services to non-members in the
hope that the new fo undation might become a member.
Finally, the Task Force discussed individual services to grantseekers, who are often
referred to CMF by members. There was consensus that beyond an updated version of
the current publication currently produced, CMF should not use staff time to undertake
searches for grantseekers. It is appropriate to refer these individuals to the Foundation
Center Cooperating Collections throughout the State. CMF will continue to assist with
group presentations to grantseekers, such as The Conversations With Program.
In addition to the resolutions proposed above, the Task Force recommends that CMF do
the following to support the pilot fee-based services program effective 2002.
•

Develop a series of high quality "How To" guides on topics such as mission,
guidelines and program development, legal and accounting information, web site
development, sample documents, and governance. The guides would be made
available to members for free as a benefit of membership. They would be made
available to non-members for a fee as a way of marketing CMF's expertise. ·

•

Develop a high quality membership recruitment packet for use at first contact with
start-ups and eligible non-members. This packet could include a guide to foundation
establishment and several other items that would communicate the knowledge CMF
has and shares with its members to strengthen their work.

•

Design and conduct market research via focus groups or other strategies to identify
ways CMF can effectively serve advisors to the wealthy on a fee basis. Creating
stronger relationships with advisors, educating them about philanthropy, and
providing them with technical support in select areas are important to fulfilling
CMF's purpose of increasing philanthropy in Michigan.

Re:

Recommended Action Items

The Communications and Marketing Task Force has had two meetings. Our initial efforts have focused
on a review of CMF's logo and positioning statement as well as a careful analysis of CMF's core
publications and website.
While we recognize that our marketing activities, such as developing CMF's first marketing brochure,
will occur after the work of the other Task Forces is complete,
we feel that it is important to take advantage of the Annual Members Meeting on November I st. T he
following action item is therefore presented for your consideration.
RESOLVED that the Council of Michigan Foundations approve a new logo and positioning
statement for usc at the 291h Annual Conference a nd introduction to the Members at the Annual
Members Meeting on November 1, 2001.
Background
The CMF logo has been in use for the last 15 years. There is consensus on the part of the Task Force
that it needs to be updated with a contemporary look. A review of the complexity of the logo indicated
that some members do not recognize the map of the state that is in the current logo design. There was
consensus that the logo should continue to use the emf letters because of name recognition, but that the
logo should also have the full name of the organization attached. CMF has retained the award-winning
firm of Olmsted Associates that works for the C.S. Mott Foundation to assist with this process. We look
forward to sharing three possible logos for your review and action at the m eeting.
CMF has never had a positioning statement- a short statement that captures the essence of what we do.
For years, we have had the following statement at the bottom of the letterhead- "An Association of
Foundations and Corporations Making Grants for C haritable Purposes." It is interesting to note that
several members of our Task Force have never recognized this statement. There is consensus by the
Task Force that we need an action oriented positioning statement that better captures what we do.

the Grand Hotel, serving on numerous boards and commissions both
on the island and throughout our state. They have diligently worked to
protect and add to the beauty that makes Mackinac one of Michigan's
jewels. Chairman of the Grand, Mr. Musser recently guided construction of a new state of the art medical facility for the Island. As a
member of the Board of the Mackinac Island Public Library, Mrs.
Musser has been instrumental in creating the many arts and cultural

�Alan Simpson
Retired U.S. Senator
Former Director, Institute of Politics,
John F Kennedy School of Government, Harvard University

Informal Networking Lunches at the Grand Hotel

12:00 noon- 1:30 p.m.

Enjoy an outstanding dining experience
in the Grand Hotel's Main Dining Room
followed by what will certainly be an
entertaining and insightful presentation
by retired United States Senator from
Wyoming, Alan Simpson. Described by
the media as an opinionated and cagey
fellow, gifted with a folksy sense of
humor, Simpson decided in 1996 not to
seek a fourth term after serving in the United States Senate since 1978.
He left the Senate with a respected record, distinguished by his farsighted work for Social Security reform, and as the GOP's majority whipsecond in command when the Party regained control of the Senate in
1994. A partner in a law firm and consultant to the Washington lobbying firm, The Tongour-Simpson Group, Simpson was director of the
Institute of Politics at Harvard after leaving the Senate. Shaken by the
death of Matthew Shepard in his home state, the Senator believes that "if
we can forget color as a barrier, we can also forget sexual orientation:'
Based on his own experiences, the Senator believes everyone should get a
second chance in their community. The Senator looks forward to
sharing his thoughts on inclusiveness and how the media can better
serve in renewing community and the human spirit.

Family Foundations Lunch at the Grand Hotel

12:00 noon- 1:30 p.m.
Tours

2:00 - 4:30 p.m.
Explore Mackinac Island and learn how residents are working to

�Great Waters
The Great Lakes Basin contains one-fifth of the world's fresh water. Low
water levels, increased beach closings, and water bottling plants are all
contributing to increased concern about the future of both the quantity
and quality of our water supply. Participate in a discussion of findings
from a new public opinion survey on the state of water resources in the
Great Lakes Basin.

Keynote Luncheon Speaker: Susan Stamberg
Special Correspondent
National Public Radio
Nationally renowned broadcast journalist Susan
Stamberg is Special Correspondent for National
Public Radio. She is the first woman to anchor a
national nightly news program and has won
every major award in broadcasting, including her
1996 induction into the Radio Hall of Fame.
Stamberg serves on the Boards of the
PEN/Faulkner Fiction Award Foundation and
Northwestern University's Medill School National
Arts Journalism program. Her interviewing has been called fresh,
friendly, down-to earth and "the closest thing to an enlightened
humanist on the radio." Stamberg feels every interview contains a lesson
in how to conduct a life, how to think about our world, how to present
oneself, in joyous and difficult situations. Stamberg will share these
lessons as she weaves the role of art, architecture and compassion
into the building of community.

Building Community By Building Community Leadership
Consider a community where no one has been prepared to lead and the
major employer has just closed. Sawyer, Michigan was that town. Today,
having worked with Michigan State University, local agencies and
groups, Sawyer has developed new leadership from among its youth and
adult residents, renewed civic pride, and started new traditions. This
session will explore the benefits of servant-leadership and asset-based
leadership development in distressed communities.

�TANF Reauthorization- Impact on Michigan and Poverty Policy
In 1996 the Temporary Assistance to Needy Families Act (TANF) was

support from the federal government. The hotly debated 2002 TANF
Reauthorization will impact thousands of low-income households in
Michigan, particularly in today's bleak economy. Gain insights into what
TANF reauthorization means for our state's residents, and how foundations can help reweave Michigan's safety net.

never have they been more relevant than today with the national call for
service and volunteerism. Three experienced administrators of matching
gift programs will discuss how these programs can be a positive addition

Sustaining Michigan's Endangered Small and Rural Schools
The survival of Michigan's small and rural schools is in question as they
confront budget shortfalls, pressure to consolidate, teacher shortages,
and school choice. The eastern three counties of the Upper Peninsula
are home to the smallest enrollment district in the state and the largest
geographic district east of the Mississippi River. How can these districts
address current challenges? And, more importantly, how can they provide students with an education that prepares them to succeed in the
21st century? Hear from national, state and local education leaders on
these issues and explore ways grantmakers can respond.

Growing up, Mae Jemison was afraid of
heights. Yet in 1992, as a Cornell University
educated physician, Dr. Jemison blasted into
orbit aboard the space shuttle Endeavor, the
first woman of color to travel into space. With
her new vantage point, Dr. Jemison founded
The Earth We Share which hosts a summer
camp where teens from around the world work to solve global dilemmas.
In 1999, she created The Jemison Group to focus on the beneficial integration of science and technology into our everyday lives. Now, this
astronaut, physician, Peace Corps volunteer, and activist believes we have
become confused about the purpose of technology. Dr. Jemison will
challenge us in her remarks about the role education can and should
play in connecting community and the human spirit.

�The Role of Relationships in Philanthropy
People are drawn to philanthropy to make a difference, and often for the
opportunity to form meaningful relationships. But grantor-grantee relationships are frequently limited when one sees the other as a means to an
end rather than as an equal partner. Join us for an interactive dialogue
about relationships in philanthropy.

Dear Colleagues:

•

Welcome to the 30th Annual Conference of the Council of Michigan Foundations (CMF)! We are excited to be
holding this Conference here at the famous Grand Hotel for the first time!!
The Annual Conference is the premier educational and networking event for Michigan grantmakers. We are for tunate to have an outstanding group of speakers offering opportunities to take a fresh look at the core skills of
effective grantmaking, as well as the hot public policy issues facing our state. There is still time to sign up for the
two special Simulation sessions and the Leadership Session for Experienced Grantmakers.
Speaking of time for signing up, you will not want to miss the array of choice tours available each day. From the
boat trip under the Bridge to exploring Fort Mackinac to preserving the Horse Culture, there is a tour designed
for you. You can even stay right at the Grand on Sunday afternoon for a program on fudge or join a morning
walk on Monday to see the birds. There is still plenty of room on the tours, so sign up at the CMF Conference
Registration Desk.
Each member of the Program Committee and Host Committee has a special ribbon on their name badge -let
them know if you have any questions and do thank them for their efforts. We also want to thank the member
foundations, and corporations that have provided special financial support for speakers, receptions and events.
Please extend your appreciation to them as well.
CMF is proud to be the oldest and largest regional association of grantmakers in the country. We value your
membership and invite you to visit the Membership table in Resource Central. On your way, please check out the
exhibitors' displays and let them know how much we appreciate their support of this Conference.
This is both a challenging time and time of great opportunity for our local communities, state and nation.
Philanthropy needs to demonstrate its relevance - that we are and can help make a difference. As we explore the
Conference theme, Community and the Human Spirit: Connecting and Renewing, let's explore the roles philanthropy can play in dealing with these challenges and taking advantage of the opportunities.

Thank you for joining us!

�Amelia Epler Musser
Robert Daniel Musser, Jr.
In 1962, Amelia and R.D. (Dan) Musser began their
stewardship of the Grand Hotel. Recognizing the
importance of the Hotel's place in the community,
Mr. and Mrs. Musser's commitment to Grand Hotel
is surpassed only by their commitment to the whole
of Mackinac Island. With equal dedication, they have
supported both the infrastructure that keeps the
town viable and worked to protect and add to the
beauty that make Mackinac one of Michigan's jewels.

Island Community Foundation, with her husband
and son, ensured its early operation through donations of an office and the underwriting of its administration. As a member of the board of Mackinac
Island Public Library, she was instrumental, not only
in construction of its current building, but also in
creating the many arts and cultural programs it houses for residents and visitors.

Mrs. Musser's commitment to beauty and art and
Mr. Musser's uncanny eye for operations, combined
with their mutual value of public service, form a
strong energy on the Island. They have been a driving
force behind virtually every successful institution and
major campaign. However, it is difficult to characterize the depth of their involvement because of the
quiet manner in which they serve.

Whether through board service, gifts of time, knowledge or hospitality, Amelia and Dan Musser have
used Grand Hotel and their experiences as tools to
preserve and enhance the entire Island for the Island
community and the benefit of the entire state. The
Boad of Trustees of the Council of Michigan
Foundations is pleased to recognize their many contributions by naming them Honorary Chairs of the
30th Annual Conference.

As Chairman of the Mackinac Island Board of Public
Works, Mr. Musser secured funding for an extensive
sewage plant and water treatment facility. Later, he
helped implement the broad composting and trash
separation system, which has become standard practice on the Island, and has enabled the Island to continue serving its one million visitors annually. As a
member of the Beaumont Fund and the Medical
Center Board, he has supported health and medical
care services and facilities on Mackinac, including
guiding the construction of a new $3.6 million stateof-the-art facility.

Retired U.S. Senator
Former Director, Institute of Politics,
John F. Kennedy School of Government,
Harvard University

Described by the media as an opinionated and cagey fellow, gifted
with a folksy sense of humor,
Senator Alan Simpson from
Wyoming decided in 1996 to not
seek a fourth term after serving in
the United States Senate since
1978. He left the Senate with a respected record, distinguished by his farsighted work for Social Security
reform, and as the GOP's majority whip-second in
command-when the Party regained control of the
Senate in 1994. A partner in a law firm and consultant to the Washington lobbying firm, The TongourSimpson Group, Simpson was director of the
Institute of Politics at Harvard after leaving the
Senate. Shaken by the death of Matthew Shepard in
his home state, the Senator believes that "if we can
forget color as a barrier, we can also forget sexual orientation." Based on his own experiences, the Senator
believes everyone should get a second chance in their
community. The Senator looks forward to sharing
his thoughts on inclusiveness and how the media can
better serve in renewing community and the human
spirit.

Nationally renowned broadcast
journalist Susan Stamberg is
Special Correspondent for National
Public Radio. She is the first woman to anchor a
national nightly news program and has won every
major award in broadcasting, including her 1996
induction in the Radio Hall of Fame. Stamberg serves

to think about our world, how to present oneself, in
joyous and difficult situations. Stamberg will share
these lessons as she weaves the role of art, architecture and compassion into the building of community.

Jo Attend

We are delighted to invite you to join your family foundation colleagues at our
Fourth Annual Family Foundations Retreat at the Grand Hotel on Mackinac
Island on Saturday, September 28 through Sunday, September 29, 2002.
This retreat is for you, other members of your family, and your family foundation trustees and staff. Our goal is to offer a thought-provoking and enjoyable
learning experience from which you will be energized, inspired, prepared to try
a few new ideas, and supported by a host of new friends and colleagues.
~

A wonderful new addition to this year's retreat is a youth grantmaking activity
for family foundation children from 8 to 18 years of age. With the help of
members of the Mackinac 'Island Community Foundation Youth Committee,
family foundation youth will have an opportunity to learn about the process
of grantmaking. They will review Island youth project proposals, develop
questions to ask on site visits, conduct site visits via bicycles, and award grants
totaling $900 to island organizations. In addition, there will be a youth
community service project on Sunday morning.
We are most grateful for the generous family foundation support that CMF
received for its 2002 family phitanthropy programming. It has made this year's
exciting retreat possible! Thanks go to The Cook Family Foundation, The
Herbert H. &amp; Grace A Dow Foundation, Frey Foundation, Richard &amp; Jane
Manoogian Foundation, Morley Foundation, Paine Family Foundation, and
Harry A. &amp; Margaret D. Towsley Foundation.
The retreat is a time to focus on issues of importance to family foundations.
Please join us for a Voyage of Discovery for Philanthropic Families. We look
forward to welcoming you on Saturday, September 28!

Memo to:

CMF Board of Trustees

From:

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

RE:

CMF 2002-03 Budget

Resolved: That the CMF Board of Trustees approve the Council of Michigan
Foundations' 2002-03 budget as recommended by the Audit &amp; Finance and Executive
Committees.
After an extensive strategic planning process, management is pleased to present the attached
budget for fiscal year 2002-03 (April I, 2002 to March 31, 2003). The Audit &amp; Finance
Committee approved the 2002-03 budget on January 17, 2002, with approval from the
Executive Committee coming on January 22, 2002. Before reviewing the attached detailed
budget management would like to highlight several issues that were examined during the
budgeting process.

Cost Containment Measures

In looking at the next five years management has taken several steps to contain costs and in
some cases reduce costs in the coming year, total estimated savings of $ 130,000.
•
•
•

•

A position for an additional support person in Grand Haven that was budgeted in the
current year will not be fill ed.
The drug card and office co-pay has been increased resulting in an annual savings of
$20,000 for 2002-03.
With the recent resignation of the Assistant VP for Corporate &amp; Educational Services,
staff assignments have been restructured, along with the addition of an assistant in the
Southeast Michigan office. These changes will result in a net savings of
approximately $28,000 per year.
The full-time community foundation Youth Project Coordinator position is currently
being restructured to a consulting position, with a cost savings of $50,000 per year.

CMF Dues Structure
After several meetings with the Strategic Planning Task Force, Membership Task Force and
Audit &amp; Finance Committee, management is proposing that adjustments in the current dues
structure be delayed until fiscal year 2003-04 .
In fiscal year 2003-04 management is proposing to expand the current dues categories from
15 to 21 and with an across the board 20% increase.

�2

Revenue Generation Options

Based on input from the Strategic Planning Marketing and Membership Task Forces a list of
fees for services has been developed to identify those services that are not considered part of
regular membership dues. For fiscal year 2002-03 $15,000 has been budgeted as new
revenue for member staff searches and board retreats.
The Marketing task force has also recommended selling advertising space in some of the
CMF publications. $8,000 in advertising income has been budgeted for the Michigan Scene.
Southeast Michigan Office

Thanks to the generation contributions from Hudson-Webber, McGregor and the Skillman
Foundations, CMF was able to establish a southeast Michigan Office in September of 1997.
For the past 3 Y2 years this office has been housed at the Skillman Foundation. Anticipated
growth of Skillman's staff has resulted in the search for a new location to house this office.
After exploring all the options with the CMF Audit &amp; Finance Committee and CMF Chair,
the most cost effective solution was to locate a small office at 333 West Fort Street. Funding
for this office in the past came from two sources, the first being the three funders mentioned
above and the second being CMF Core operations that funded the Director's position for this
office.
For 2002-03 and 2003-04 funding to support the operations of this office will come from
excess administration dollars earned from special projects, primarily the Tobacco Settlement
grant from the State of Michigan. Future years will be supported by the dues increase
budgeted for 2003-04. Annual operating costs for this office are budgeted at $60,000 for
2002-03.
Strategic Development Fund

Most of the new services developed during the strategic planning process will be covered by
the budgeted dues increase scheduled for 2003-04. At this point, technology appears to be
the main area where special funding will be required to complete the recommendations in the
strategic plan. The Technology Task Force has started to analyze the recommendations that
have surfaced from the other Task Forces, with the goal of finalizing a long-range technology
plan by June 2002. Currently the following special funding items are anticipated, with final
numbers anticipated by June 2002.

As you review the CMF Core Operations budget you will note that total expenses are
projected to increase by $362,000 with a corr,e sponding increase in revenue to cover those
costs. This is due to the following reasons:
CMF Annual Conference Returning to previous year's attendance levels
Expanded programming for members
Expenses to produce the 13u' Edition of Michigan Foundations Directory
Additional operating expenses for the new Southeast Michigan Office

Core Operations
Revenue
Note 1: Member Contributions
In budgeting dues for 2002-03, member assets have been projected to decrease by 8% for the

year ending 12-31-01. This projection is based the DOW being down 7.10% and the S&amp;P
500 being down 13.04%, for the year ending 12-31-01.
The increase from the prior year is due to new members budgeted for 2002-03.
Note 2: Additional Member Contributions
Additional member contributions are anticipated to increase slightly to the levels experienced
in previous years.
Note 3: Other Grants
Thanks to the generous contributions from the Hudson-Webber Foundation, The Skillman
Foundation and McGregor Fund, CMF established a Southeast Michigan office in September
1997. During this time period CMF has provided funding for the staffing of this office
through general membership contributions. The three funders mentioned above provided
office space, along with general operating support. Fiscal year 2002-03 will be a transition
period as CMF starts to absorb the costs for this office in its Core Services budget. This
transition will involve the relocating this office from The Skillman Foundation, to 333 West
Fort Street, Detroit, in Janumy 2002.

In order to absorb the operating costs of this office that have been supported by special
grants, CMF will use surplus personnel/administrative dollars earned from special projects.

Management is anticipating we will have one more year of these surplus dollars to support
the operating costs of the Southeast Michigan office. A projected dues increase in 2003-04
will complete the transition of member dues fu lly supporting the cost of this office, that will
provide services to both Family Foundations and Corporate Foundations and Corporate
Giving Programs around the state.
Note 4: Conference &amp; Meetings

$80,000 of the increase from the prior year is due to the anticipation of attendance at the
annual conference increasing to 800 from the 700 that attended the conference in Detroit.
Part of the long-term funding plan for CMF is to bring the annual conference registration fees
in line with other conferences of similar size. The first year of the two-year phase in period,
calls for raising full registration fees from $450 to $525, raising an additional $50,000 in
revenue, with the second year (2003-04) increasing another $75 to $600.
The remaining increase is due to the following educational opportunities that are new for
2002-03 or have been expanded from previous years.

The increase from the prior year is due to the publication of the 13 1h Edition of the Michigan
111
Foundation Directory, which should be ready for distribution by December 2002. The 13
Edition is projected to net a profit of$45,000 over a two year period.
Note 6: Other Income/Consulting

2002-03 is the first year CMF will be selling advertising space in the Michigan Scene.
$8,000 in income has been projected for 3 issues. The remaining $15,000 in revenue
represents revenue for member staff searches and facilitation of member board retreats.

constant over the next 3-5 years.

Memo to:

C. David Campbell, Chainnan, and Members of the Board of Trustees

From:

Kari Schlachtenhaufen and Libby Maynard, Co-Chairs
30th Annual Conference Program Committee

Re:

301h A nnual Conference Update

Plans are well underway for the 30th Annual Conference on Mackinac Island. The
Conference will start on Sunday, September 29, and end Tuesday, October 1.
Networking lunches will take place from noon to 1:30 p.m. on Sunday. The Board
Meeting will be held from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m.
We have asked for permission to have the opening reception at the Governor's Residence
from 5:00 to 6:30p.m. We have also invited the Governor and First Lady to join us at
the Conference to receive a special tribute from Michigan grantmakers for all they have
done to promote giving and volunteering in our state.
In discussing potential Honorary Chairs for the Conference, there was consensus that
CMF should recognize an Island family. While many families have played an important
role, Dan and Amelia Musser, owners of the Grand Hotel, are the first choice of everyone
we have talked to. An invitation has been extended to them.
We are excited to share that our first plenary speaker, Susan Stamberg, special
correspondent from NPR, is confirmed. Enclosed is background information on Susan.
Invitations have also been extended to Ken Bums and Fred Rogers to be our other two
plenary speakers.
The Program Committee will be having its first meeting on February 18 to discuss the
theme and sessions for the Conference. We will be meeting at the Collaborative Center
of the Michigan Virtual University in East Lansing and look forward to reporting on the
results of this meeting. Because of the layout of the Grand Hotel, we will only be
offering 18 concurrent sessions, instead of the nomml 36. The Committee is being
charged with designing two simulation sessions and a session for experienced
grantmakers as well.
Wes Mauer, Trustees of the Mackinac Island Community Foundation, has agreed to serve
as Co-Chair of the Host Committee. The Committee will convene for its first meeting in
March.
Hotel space at the Grand Hotel is limited on Saturday evening so it will be important to
let CMF know if you plan on arriving on Saturday or Sunday.

Memo To:

C. David Campbell, Chairman and
Members of the Board of Trustees

From:

Vicki Rosenberg, Vice President &amp; Chief Operating Officer

Re:

Diversity Statement

RESOLVED that the Council of Michigan Foundations adopt this value statement
on diversity and inclusion:
"We strive to model and promote diversity and inclusion as a means to strengthen
the work of grantmakers. We do so by working to create an environment in which
men and women from different national origins, ethnicities, races, and cultures, of
different generations, religions, economic backgrounds, and sexual orientations, and
with different skills, abilities, lifestyles, and beliefs are respected, valued, and
encouraged to participate. We seek to understand, represent, and share the range
of philanthropic perspectives held and traditions followed by our members. And,
we actively attempt to serve a diverse membership, be governed by a diverse Board
of Trustees, and to attract and retain diverse staff members.
We encourage members to join with us by developing their own commitment to
diversity and inclusion for the future of philanthropy in Michigan."
Background
At the May 2001 Board Meeting, the Board of Trustees reviewed and endorsed a draft
values statement for CMF and discussed the best way to include its commitment to
diversity and inclusion. The Board of Trustees asked staff to develop background
materials for Board review at the October 2, 2001 Special Board Meeting.
On October 2, Bob Tobin of the William Group facilitated a Board discuss ion about
diversity and inclusion and shared sample statements identified by staff as most closely
matching the intentions discussed at the May 2001 meeting. Trustees identified key
elements and asked staff to develop these elements into a draft statement for review at the
October 3 1, 200 1 Board Meeting.
At the October 31, 2001 Board Meeting, the Board of Trustees reviewed the resulting
draft statement and made several suggestions for wording that would clarify CMF's
purpose in having such a value statement.
On December 5, 200 1, the Long-Range Planning Committee reviewed and endorsed the
revised statement reflecting the Trustees suggestions from October 31.

Memo to:

CM.F Board of Trustees

From:

David R. Lindberg

RE:

CM.F &amp; Supporting Organizations 12-31-01 Financial Statements

Resolved: That the CMF Board of Trustees approve the internal financial report for
the nine month period ending December 31, 2001, as recommended by the Audit &amp;
Finance Committee.
Enclosed is the December 31,2001 financial report for the Council of Michigan Foundations
and its supporting organizations, which has been reviewed by the Audit &amp; Finance
Committee.
As you review the attached CM.F Core Operations Internal Statement of Activities you will
note that a deficit of $58,000 is projected for the 2001-02 fiscal year. This is due to the
following reasons.
Delay in iMIS database u grade, originally budgeted for the previous year
Projected deficit Annual Conference

$30,000
$40,000

Core Operations
Note 1: Member &amp; Additional Contributions
Based on receipts through December 31, 2001, it appears both regular and additional member
contributions will total $957,000, versus a budget of $965,000.

Note 2: Conference Income &amp; Expenses
Based on the latest financial results it appears the Annual Conference will result in a deficit
of $40,000, which is down from the estimated $50,000 - $70,000 loss report at the October
CM.F Board meeting. Management was able to reduce the deficit by instituting cost savings
when it appeared the overall attendance would be down from previous years.

�2

Note 3: Publication Income
The variance from budget is the result of Directmy sales falling off sooner than anticipated.
Ads have been placed in Michigan Nonprofit Association's monthly newsletter, which should
boost sales between now and the end of the year. Inventory at the end of December was as
follows:
Books- 874 (started with 2,500)
CD's - 157 (started with 1,000)
Based on the latest projected sales for the Directory it appears we should still turn a slight
profit on the 12th Edition.
Note 4: Investment Income
The variance from budget is the result of money market rates falling into the 2% range, which
is 60% below last year's rates (all operating funds are invested in money market accounts).
This reduction should result in a $45,000 budget variance.
Note 5: Salaries
The projected variance from budget is primarily due to a budgeted support position that will
not be filled and the Assistant VP for Corporate &amp; Educational Services position that was
vacated in November. Through restructuring of staff duties, services provided by the VP
have been reallocated to other staff.
Note 6: Computer
Due to the delay in upgrading the iMIS software (membership &amp; meeting database) last year,
$21,000 in expenses that were budgeted for 2000-01 , have hit our current fiscal year, with
another $15,000 projected by the end of the year. This should result in 2001-02 being over
budget by $36,000. Currently $45,000 that was budgeted for 2001-02 to purchase an on-line
registration module for iMIS, is being used to purchase Citrix software and equipment that
will allow staff remote access to their desktop computers.
Note 7: Travel
The variance from budget is primarily due to the increase in air travel and fuel costs
experienced this year.

Memo to:

CMF Board of Trustees

From:

Herbert (Ted) D. Doan, Trustee

Re:

CMF 12-31-01 Investment Report

Resolved: That the CMF Board of Trustees accept the December 31,2001
I nvestment Report.
On a quarterly basis, the combined Investment Committee for the Council of Michigan
Foundations (CMF), Michigan Community Foundations' Venture (MCFV) and the
Michigan AIDS Fund (MAF), meet to review the investment performance for the
operating and permanent endowment funds. The information contained in this section
was reviewed by the Investment Comntittee on February 6, 2002.
The enclosed Investment Report has been broken down into three sections.
I nvestment Performance Report
The benchmark is based on the targeted asset allocation formula listed below.
S&amp;P 500
S&amp;P 400

On November 19, 2001, the Investment Committee met with the current investment
managers (Bank One and Comerica) to discuss the current 14% international equities
asset allocation and options regarding an appropriate benchmark.
After discussing the 14% international equity allocation with those managers, the
committee decided to remain at the current allocation. This decision was primarily
driven by the fact that 14% seems to be in the range of what other foundations are doing
and after an extended period of negative returns in the international market this is
typically when committees reallocate their investments, only to see the market turn
around shortly thereafter.

�2

During several meetings the committee has been discussing options for the appropriate
benchmarks to use. In the past, the benchmark was based on the various indexes (S&amp;P
500, 600, etc.). After discussing this issue with Bank One and Comerica, the committee
decided a more appropriate benchmark would be comparing the CMF endowment funds
to active investment manager returns. Comerica is now providing the Lipper returns for
the following categories.
Lipper Large Cap Core
Lipper Mid Cap Core
Lipper Small Cap Core
Lipper International
Lipper Corporate Debt A Rated Fixed Income
Asset Allocation Report

The Investment Committee has approved an asset allocation re-balancing policy that
instructs the CMF VP of Finance to rebalance the endowment fund portfolios on a
quarterly basis.
To keep administrative time to a minimum CMF maintains one checking account to pay
all endowment fund expenses. The negative cash balances are due to endowment fund
expenditures from the CMF checking account, which are periodically reimbursed by
transferring cash from the endowment funds back to CMF.
Investment Performance Comparison Report

One of the benchmarks the Investment Committee has been tracking is the Cambridge
Associates, Inc. pool of colleges, universities, and foundations. Since the release of this
quarterly report typically lags the end of our quarter, by two to three months, the latest
comparative numbers available are September 30, 2001 .
The variances from the Cambridge actual one-year rate of returns, are primarily due to
the returns in the venture capital and private equity market, which are categories not
allowed under our current investment policy. You will note that, over a three-year
period, the endowment funds that have been fully-invested during this period track
relatively close to the Cambridge pool.
During the February 6, 2002 meeting the committee discussed an alternative investment
product (fund of funds) that Vanguard will be rolling out in the next few months. The
committee will be studying this product carefully to determine if this might be an
appropriate diversification tool.

Re:

Government Relations Committee Report

Annual Capitol Hill Visit
I am pleased to report that 19 staff and trustees from 13 CMF members joined with CMF
stafffor the Annual Capitol Hill Visit on January 29 and 30. In spite of the State of the
Union Speech, a House Republican Retreat, and Senate Democratic Policy Seminar, we
were successful in meeting personally with nine Congressional Members and both
Senators as well as the staff from the other seven Members. Our thanks to CMF Trustee
Martin Taylor and DTE Energy for again hosting the Capitol Hill Dinner.
The two legislative priorities we discussed included the IRA Charitable Rollover and
Simplification ofthe Excise Tax on Private Foundations to One Percent. Both of these
priorities were passed by the House as part of HR 7 ands are included in a Senate Bill that
should be introduced shortly by Senators Liebennan and Santorum. President Bush has
also included these priorities in his Budget. These two priorities are supported by the
Members of Michigan's Congressional delegation. Senators Levin and Stabenow
indicated they would let their colleagues know about the importance of the new Senate
Bill. The two priorities are summarized in the attached issues sheets.
In addition, each Member was provided with a packet, including a listing of the
foundations in their Districts, schools in their Districts using the Learning to Give lesson
plans, and fact sheets on both the Tobacco Settlement Partnership and Michigan IDA
Partnership.
State Bi-Partisan Philanthropy Caucus
The attached one page draft has been prepared to sununarize the value of creating a State
Bi-Partisan Philanthropy Caucus. Our consultant David Haynes of Public Affairs
Associates has approved this draft. He has identified Senator Bob Emerson from Flint,
Senator Ken Sikkema from Grandville, Representative Marc Shulman from West
Bloomfield and Representative Bill McConico from Detroit as the potential Caucus
leaders.
Rob Collier is now meeting with these four individuals as well as Speaker Johnson and
Senate Majority Leader DeGrow to discuss the concept and the goal of having the first
meeting in May before the election season enters high gear.

Government Relations Committee Report
January 7, 2002

CMF's Public Policy Committee
Co-Chairs Dave Egner from the Hudson-Weber Foundation, Karla Hall from DTE
Energy and Susan Broman from Steelcase, convened the first in-person meeting of the
Public Policy C01mnittee on January 18. The Committee has identified five issues for
further research and consideration by the Annual Conference Program Committee as
session topics: TANF Reauthorization, Safety Net, K-12 Education, Access to Health
Care, and Land-Use.
In addition, Pat Babcock from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation has volunteered to a..'&gt;sist the
Committee in developing a Public Policy I 01 Educational Campaign to help staff and
trustees of Michigan foundations better understand the importance of public policy to
philanthropy. This Educational Campaign could include: articles in The Michigan Scene
and Memo to Members as well as special workshops.
Public Policy and Charitable Giving
Elan Garonzik from the Mott Foundation, Charles Janssen from the Capital Region
Community Foundation, and Pat Babcock from the W.K Kellogg Foundation joined Rob
in presenting an Issues in Brief Session with the M ichigan Public Policy Institute, on
December 3, for 40 legislative staff members at the Capitol. The Session covered
grantmaking priorities and patterns as well as experiences working with government to
serve Michigan communities.
Annual Giving and Volunteering Report
Rob Collier participated in a news conference on November 15, National Philanthropy
Day, with Sam Singh from the Michigan Nonprofit Association, Kyle Caldwell from the
Michigan Community Services Commission and Professor Mark Wilson from Michigan
State University to discuss the preliminary findings from the Annual Giving and
Volunteering Survey conducted in September and October 2001.
The Survey confirms that almost 90% of Michigan adults made a charitable contribution
during the past year and that 63% of Michigan residents plan to give the same amount in
2002. CMF is co-sponsoring printing of the full report scheduled for distribution to the
Legislature and public in March.

�Excise Tax on Private Foundations
Position. The Council of Michigan Foundations joins the Council on Foundations in
supporting simplification to one percent of the excise tax on private foundation
investment income.
Background. Private foundations generally are subject to a 2 percent excise tax on
their net investment income. The tax is 1 percent in any year in which the
foundation's percentage of distributions for charitable purposes generally exceeds
the average percentage of its distributions over the five preceding taxable years.
Private non-operating foundations generally must make annual distributions for
charitable purposes equal to roughly 5 percent of the fair market value of the
foundation's endowment assets. The excise tax paid-$500 million in 1999-acts as
a credit in reducing the 5 percent requirement.
Because the tax paid qualifies as a credit toward the minimum distribution, it is
estimated that simplifying the tax would automatically result in an additional $200
plus million in qualifying distributions per year, about 90 percent of which typically go
to grants, according to IRS estimates. The revenue raised by simplifying the tax
would still more than cover its intended purpose: to cover costs of IRS oversight of
exempt organizations. The fiscal 2001 budget of the Service's exempt-organization
division is $58 million.
Under the current two-tiered structure, a foundation is penalized for making a
substantial increase in its charitable spending. Many foundations set spending
policies of 5 percent to 6 percent to preserve the long-term value of their
endowments. A significant increase in one year (while making them eligible for the 1
percent rate for that year) will increase thei r five-year average spending percentage
to a level they are not willing to maintain. As a result, for the next five years, their tax
rate doubles to 2 percent.
The Joint Committee on Taxation staff has recommended repeal of the tax. In an
April 2001 report ("Study of the Overall State of the Federal Tax System and
Recommendations for Simplification ," JCS-3-01, Volume 2, pp. 456-459), the JCT
concluded that the tax should be eliminated because of its complexity. Repeal, the
report noted, "would relieve private foundations of having to make the necessary
calculations of net investment income, file estimated tax returns, and consider the
optimal level of charitable activity in terms of the rate of tax."
Status. While both the House and Senate have introduced bills to repeal the excise
tax, H.R. 7, the Community Solutions Act, which passed the House in 2001, provides
for simplification and reduction of the excise tax to one percent. Senators Santorum
(R-PA) and Lieberman are considering this provision as part of a new charitable
giving bill. The Joint Committee on Taxation has estimated the total cost of this
change at $2.17 billion over 10 years.

�IRA Charitable Rollover
Position. The Council of Michigan Foundations joins the Council on Foundations
supporting legislation that would allow taxpayers to make contributions directly to
charity from their IRA and other tax-deferred retirement assets without incurring
tax liability.
Background. Because of the stock market boom of the 1990s, many Americans
have unexpectedly large Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs), some in seven
figures. Many taxpayers have growing interest in giving IRA assets to community
foundations, private foundations, local charities, or creating deferred gifts such as
charitable remainder trusts that later benefit charitable organizations.
Under current law, any tax-deferred distribution is fully taxable as income. For
donors interested in relatively small charitable contributions, the tax effect should
be no problem-the IRA disbursement comes out and is added to the donor's
taxable income but is then deducted from income when the gift is made. But two
barriers in the tax code can thwart (or penalize) a donor making large gifts:
Percentage Limitations: In any year, donors may not deduct more than
50 percent of their income for gifts of cash to public charities (30 percent if
to private foundations).
Three-percent Floor: Higher income taxpayers may run into a provision
that reduces their itemized deductions by up to 3 percent, subject to an
overall limit that deductions cannot be reduced below 80 percent of the
original amount. A large gift from an IRA can increase a taxpayer's income
to the point where this 3 percent reduction applies.
Legislative History. In 2001, Representative Phil Crane (R-IL) and Senator Kay
Bailey Hutchison (R-TX) introduced companion bills (H.R. 774 and S. 205
respectively) that would allow IRA owners over age 59~ to make tax-free
distributions directly to a qualified charity or a qualifying deferred giving plan,
such as a charitable remainder trust, pooled income fund or charitable gift
annuity. President Bush has indicated his continuing support of this provision.
Current Status. A version of these bills was included in H.R. 7, the Community
Solutions Act, which passed the House in July 2001. H.R. 7 would allow both
outright and deferred gifts, beginning at age 70 ~. The Joint Committee on
Taxation has estimated the total cost of this version at $2.75 billion over ten
years. IRA Charitable Rollover was also i.ncluded in S. 592, the Savings
Opportunity and Charitable Giving Act of 2001, sponsored by Senators Santorum
(R-PA) and Lieberman (O-CT). The Senate has not acted on this proposal.

�DRAFT
A Bi-Partisan State Legislative Philanthropy Caucus
Despite the continued growth of charitable foundations in Michigan, organized
giving is being challenged by issues, such as:
• corporate mergers,
• increased sale of family owned businesses,
• growing geographic dispersion of family members around the U.S.,
• for-profit firms, such as Fidel ity, now distributing grantmaking assets, and
• unfamiliarity and hence unrealistic expectations on the part of new
policymakers.
A State Legislative Philanthropy Caucus could help to address these issues by:
• helping to inform colleagues about the roles that foundations play,
• hosting periodic briefings on foundations for state officials,
• suppm1ing periodic meetings for foundations on state issues, and
• working with the Council ofMichigan Foundations on efforts to promote
and increase philanthropy in Michigan.
Since 1973 the Council of Michigan Foundations (CMF) has worked to increase,
improve and enhance philanthropy in Michigan. With more than 490 independent,
family community and corporate foundations and giving programs as members,
CMF is the largest regional association of grantmakers in the U.S.
CMF has worked closely with the State Legislatw·e and Governor since the late
1980s on projects such as the Exon Energy Settlement, the Michigan AIDS Fund,
the Michigan IDA Partnership, the Tobacco Settlement Partnership, and the growth
of community foundations to serve every county. The growth of community
foundations has been aided by the permanent State Community Foundation Tax
Credit for individuals, families and corporations paying the Single Business Taxthe first such tax credits in the country.
Michigan ranks fourth in the nation in terms of organized philanthropy. More than
1,800 foundations and giving programs have assets that exceed $22 billion and
annual grants toping $1.2 billion. These foundations are vital partners to the 16,000
plus charitable nonprofit organizations that employ more than 300,000 Michigan
residents. Because fifty percent ofthese assets are held by the W.K. Kellogg
Foundation, C.S. Mott Foundation and Kresge Foundation- that have national and
international grantmaking programs, the vast majority of these are small family
foundations with assets of less than one million dollars each.
T he creation of foundations will likely continue, due in part to the largest
intergenerational transfer of wealth ever now underway, and a legislative and
regulatory climate that encourages giving. A State Philanthropy Caucus can play a
leadership role in insuring that this is the case.

Re:

February 2002 Learning to Give Update

The Learning to Give (LTG) initiative continues to enjoy success and rapid
development on many fronts. Steady requests for information and assistance in
bringing LTG to local communities are now being received. The Steering
Committee meets again in early May. A summary of the progress follows.
Financial Support
Grants Received
Michigan Community Service Commission
$27,000 Renewable
To support a Learning to Give consultant at the Muskegon Area
Intermediate School District (MAISD). Goal: to involve every child in every
school in Muskegon County in service-learning and LTG each year over
three years. Also, to model how an lSD can integrate LTG and servicelearning into their core technical assistance to school districts.
Muskegon Rotary Club
$ 5,000 Renewable
A companion grant in support of a Learning to Give consultant at the
MAISD. This is our first support from a local Rotary Club. Rotary
International has told us we will need to be: 1) supported by local Rotary
Clubs and 2) international in reach, before they would consider
sponsorship support. This grant is step one.
Community Foundation for Muskegon County
All Renewable
$10,000 Youth Advisory Committee
$ 5,000 Women and Children's Fund
$12,000 Unrestricted Fund
Companion grants to the MAISD partnership. Of particular note is the gift
from the Youth Advisory Committee that pays for classroom teachers to
teach philanthropy to students in the county! (This makes us smile!).
Muskegon Area Intermediate School District
lnkind
The MAISD has committed substantial inkind support to the Muskegon
partnership, including: an office, telephone, and all equipment; training

�2

space; marketing of teacher professional development opportunities; and
long-term planning to include technical support for LTG in the core
services of the District at the end of the three year development effort. In
addition, they have offered to open a door to their colleagues in other
IS D's regarding the success of this model.
Michigan Women's Foundation
$5,000 Renewable
A mini-grant to support the development of units and teaching materials
that describe how women, over time, have used the nonprofit sector as
an alternative power structure in American society.
Lilly Endowment
$24,000
(Metropolitan School District of Warren Township)
Warren Public Schools, suburban Indianapolis, has written LTG into their
school improvement plan- funded as part of a major education initiative of
the Lilly Endowment. We expect to begin work there in the fall of 2002.
Federal Funds
As a result of CMF's efforts on behalf of LTG the new federal education bill
includes the word "giving" under the definition of Character Education. These
funds will be available to the states as "block grants". We are working to
determine a state by state strategy to access the Character Education funds for
Learning to Give in each of our projected partner states. Rob Collier has met
with the Department of Education in order to determine the next steps. A federal
Request for Proposals will be sent to state departments of education in March for
an April reply. Target states are: Michigan, California, Indiana, Texas, and Ohio.

There is some possibility to access technical assistance funds. This is also being
pursued with a brief concept paper regarding how LTG might assist Character
Education programs in teaching "giving".
Other Grants
The Atlantic Philanthropies-application has been submitted, we are waiting for a
decision.

The Corporation for National Service has been approached by Dottie Johnson
regarding a potential demonstration project on how LTG can support the goals of
the new Freedom Corps. This is a very preliminary conversation at this time.
A template for funding proposals to potential partners in each of the target states
is completed. In addition a template has been developed to use in cities or
regions that approach us regarding bringing LTG to their schools. These
proposals will be sent to foundations that have contacted us from Kansas City,
St. Louis, Appleton, and northern Indiana.

A second gift from Barclay Palmer, individual donor, is expected for $25,000 to
support the LTG partnership with the Center for Partnership Studies-an
educational group working to develop editing tools around language and equity.
Michigan Community Service Commission- Pending $27,000 to support the
development of performing arts lessons that include service-learning and teach
Learning to Give lessons is in the final approval stages. This effort is in
partnership with Grand Valley State University and Muskegon Community
College.
Pre-proposal discussions are underway with the A.T. and T. Foundation, the
Fremont Area Community Foundation, and the Ford Foundation. Other options
are also under consideration.

The Community Foundation for Southeastern Michigan is working with LTG on a
model to bring LTG to Chelsea Public Schools and to integrate the Chelsea Fund
youth advisory committee tasks into this model. This will be the first model that
brings the YAC of a community foundation and LTG directly together.
Grants Ending
Three -year grants that were completed December 31 , 2001 are:
• The McGregor Fund
• The Atlantic Philanthropies
• The Ford Foundation
• The Lilly Endowment (first grant)
National Content Advisory Committee (NCAC)
The NCAC met in October at The Fetzer Institute's "Seasons" Retreat to review
the LTG Themes. A solid discussion resulted in agreements to strengthen the
volunteer component of the themes; to develop government service as an
important sub-component; and participants agreed to areas where they might
assist LTG through the writing of scholarly papers or making presentations. Dr.
Robert Bremner, Ohio State University, has already submitted his paper for our
review and use. The group meets again in October 2002.
Standardized Tests
Test questions for standardized tests at grades 5, 8, and 11 have been
completed and reviewed by the Fairness Committee. We are pushing to put the
questions, and sample tests, on the Web by late spring.
Units and Lessons
Editing, fairness review, field-testing, and placement on the web continues for the
lessons. A total of 338 lessons are on the Web-site. One hundred and twenty
more will be added over the next few months. A number of the units written
during the summer of 2001 deal with issues of tolerance and diversity. These

�4

units have become especially important following the September attacks on the
United States. They were reviewed for fairness in January and will go on the
Web this spring. A Muslim representative has volunteered to serve on the
Fairness Committee, rounding out our cultural representation.
Field-Testing
Of the 338 lesson plans currently on the Web, 108 have completed their field-test
reviews. That means that they have been taught and formally evaluated, in
writing, by at least five classroom teachers and are considered completed.
Pilot Schools
The thirty pilot school buildings help to develop the standardized tests, and to
begin to measure outcomes. Our special thanks to Gerald Smith, and to the
Community Foundation for Southeastern Michigan and I.U. intern, Colleen
Peters, for helping in recruiting a Detroit Public Schools cluster to participate in
the pilot program. The school districts involved provided at the end of this report.
Initial Evaluation Data
While this period has been one of collecting data, rather than reporting, some
preliminary numbers from teachers who piloted lessons in the fall of 2001 have
been extremely positive. By June, teachers from all thirty schools will be
reporting.
Number of K-12 school students included: 2,621 from 12 schools
Mastered+ (grade A equivalent)= 1,439 students
Mastered= (grade B equivalent)= 808 students
Adequate (grade C equivalent)=
300 students
Partial
(grade D equivalent)=
75 students
86% of the students involved in these pilot schools completely mastered or
exceeded the philanthropy education objectives.
98% of the students adequately mastered or exceeded the philanthropy
education objectives.
Tea c her Professional Development

In addition, a youth coalition in New Hampshire has scheduled in-service days for
LTG on March 151h and June 251h. They are using New Venture funds from the
New Hampshire Charitable Trust to brinQI LTG to their area.

�5

Staff In-service Workshops
Teachers at each of the thirty pilot schools have participated in in-service
workshops. Approximately, 212 active pilot teachers have been involved in these
in-service experiences.
Congressional District Coverage
In preparing packets for the CMF visits to Congress, LTG was pleased to note
that there are now a number of teachers using the LTG lessons in every
Congressional District in Michigan.
Ferris State University Masters Degree in Education
with a Concentration in Philanthropic Studies
The new 36-hour Masters Degree in Education with a concentration in
philanthropic studies is in the final approval process. Thirteen hours will be
provided as online courses by Ferris State University. Six hours will be provided
online in partnership with the Indiana Center on Philanthropy. Twelve hours will
be provided by Learning to Give in two summer residential seminars. In addition,
six hours will be provided in philanthropy online from Learning to Give. Ferris
State University will purchase the LTG sponsored components, providing a small
funding stream to LTG. In addition to the Masters Degree, Ferris is also offering
two certificate programs-one for teachers who already hold Masters Degrees
and one for program officers of foundations and/or youth workers.
If approved by the Ferris State University Board this spring, the first online
Education courses will be available in the summer of 2002. The first residential
seminar will be offered in Grand Rapids by LTG, July 28-August 61h.
Web-site and Teacher Materials
Web-Site
A change in the leadership at Michigan State Universities' Department of
Computers and Technology occurred over the holiday. We have met with the
new Director. MSU has expressed interest in providing a formal proposal for the
revision of the Web-site. These revisions will depend upon further funding.
High School Textbook Supplement, Teacher Guide, Student Guide
The Indiana University Center on Philanthropy has offered to write the high
school textbook supplement, CD-ROM and student/teacher guides for the
$100,000 grant provided by the Charles Stewart Matt Foundation. Their inkind
contributions will make up the matching portion. Work on the textbook has
begun. We are meeting with a potentia1
l e-publisher in mid-February. Royalties
from the textbook supplements may be another small earned income revenue
stream.
Briefing Papers
Twenty new briefing papers have been added to the Web-site in January.
Bringing the total to 48. Thanks to I.U. Center on Philanthropy, and graduate

�6

students from the Mandel Center at Case Western Reserve for their continued
writing and donation of the briefing papers.
LTG Video Interview with Harold Bloom
LTG has scheduled an interview in March, and has permission to video-tape,
Harold Bloom in New York discussing the relationship of LTG content to
Shakespeare. This is the next step in moving the content into English language
arts.

Marketing and Public Relations
Meeting with Tom Watkins, Michigan Superintendent of Schools
LTG representatives met with Tom Watkins and his staff to discuss support from
the Michigan Department of Education for Learning to Give and service-learning.
Among the discussion items was the suggestion for a formal resolution of support
from the Michigan Board of Education and to pursue the Character Education
funds for LTG in Michigan.
Newsletter and Publications/Television Coverage
The fall newsletter was distributed to almost 10,000 individuals nationwide. The
LTG introductory brochure was updated and reprinted. The 2002 Summer
Institute brochures for Michigan and Ohio have been updated and printed, as
well as preliminary materials for the Ferris Masters and the summer arts institute.
Mary Petro's first grade class at Open School, Albion Public Schools, was
featured on Kalamazoo Television at the holidays. They were making out
"charity checks" to local nonprofit organizations after having researched the local
charities as a part of their LTG lesson.
McGregor Foundation Sponsored Family Involvement Booklets
Booklets advising on strategies for family involvement in education have been
written for: 1) program officers of foundations; 2) parents; and 3) educators.
These three companion publications will be printed and ready for distribution by
our May meeting. They will be used as the basis for continued in-service
experiences in our Detroit area, and other school districts.
Our consultant, Dr. Amy Colton, is currently involved in consulting work with the
Michigan Department of Education and is using her research for Learning to Give
as a part of the background material for the Michigan State Board's parent
involvement initiative.
Potential PBS Partnership
Initial conversations have begun regarding a potential partnership between
Learning to Give and public broadcasting. PBS is interested in high quality civil
society content-particularly in children's programming. LTG could benefit from
the national and grass-roots media "reach" of PBS.

Memo to:

C. David Campbell, Chairman, and Members of the Board of Trustees

From:

Rob Collier, President

Re:

Membership D ues Increase

T he following resolution is presented for your review and action at the Februaty 19, 2002 Board
Meeting. As noted below, it has been reviewed and approved for presentation to the full Board by
both the Executive Conm1ittee and Audit &amp; F inance Committee.

RESOLVED that the membership dues structure be adjusted for the fiscal year starting
Aprilt, 2003 in accordance with the following steps as reviewed and approved by the
Audit &amp; Finance and Executive Committees:
•
•
•
•
•
•

Increase asset categories for foundations from 15 to 21 ,
Increase dues by 20%,
Establish a minimum dues of $300 for the asset category of less than $500,000,
Increase community foundation affiliate rate to $300 as well,
E sta blish dues of $500 for the asset category of $500,000 to $1,000,000,
Adjust Corporate Giving Programs categories, based on grants paid, to match
foundation categories, which a re based on asset levels, using a 5% payout.

Background
The need for a dues increase has been examined by the Membership Committee and the Audit &amp;
Finance Committee, as part ofthe Strategic P lanning Process. Below is a brief summary of the
process that took place in arriving at the proposed dues adjustments, which are recommended to go
into effect in 2003-04.

In developing the proposed revision to the dues structure, management focused on the following
ISSUes:

•
•
•
•

A structure that is fair and equitable for all members.
A structure which keeps pace with inflation, based on anticipated investment growth of
existing members' assets.
Sufficient revenue to support priority services identified by members and not require special
fundraising annually to support ongoing services.
Building a reserve sufficient to cover six months worth of operating expenses.

In projecting dues revenues for 2003-04, a loss of 40 members (or $50,000 per year) is projected
due to the recommended increase. In addition a loss of 50 members, that are at least two years
delinquent on dues, is planned.

Recommendations from the 11-28-01 meeting:
Minimum dues:
• $150 category would be raised to $360 for fiscal year 2002-03
• In 2003-04 the increase in the $150 category would be completed by raising this group from
$360 to $500
• Foundations currently in the $360 category would be raised to $500 for fiscal year 2002-03
Revised dues structure:
• Look at expanding the current number of fifteen categories
• Present management recommendations for the January 17, 2002 budget meeting on a dues
increase for 2003-04
Group Rates:
• Eliminate group rates
Fees for Services:
• Base on actual staff salaries and benefits, plus a profit margin and overhead rate, taking into
account what for-profit firms charge
Management's Recommended Plan
Based on the input received from the various committees and Board of Trustees' involvement in
the Strategic Planning Process, management is proposing the following adjustments to the current
dues structure:
Minimum Asset Categories
• No increases for 2002-03
Old Catetw rv
Under $200,000
$200,000 to $1 million

•
•

Rate- 2002-03
$1 50
$360

New Cate1!0rv
Under $500,000
$500,000 to $ 1 million

Rate 2003-04
$300
$500

Keep the under $500,000 category at $300 to match the rate being offered by the
Association of Small Foundations. Currently there are 78 members in this category.
Raise the $500,000 to $1 million category to $500. Currently there are 39 members in this
category.

Dues Increase and Expanding Categories
• Implement a 20% dues increase for all categories greater than $500 and less than $70,000
for 2003-04, which would generate an additional $188,370 annually.
• A prime reason for the proposed increase is that the accumulated inflation factor over the
past six years has totaled 18%-20%.
• The proposed increase should allow CMF to meet its goal of an annual break-even budget
while at the same time keeping dues constant for the next 4 years.
• Expanding the categories from 15 to 2 1 will assist in keeping dues current with the
anticipated annual growth in inflation. This is based on a projected investment growth of
our members' assets (see following page).

Community Foundation Affiliate Membership
Starting in 2002-03 only affiliates that participated in the Kellogg Youth Challenge are eligible for
separate membership status. Affiliates currently pay annual dues of$150. Those who do not
qualify for separate membership will have their assets rolled into the total assets of the lead
foundation for calculating dues. Affiliate membership will increase from $150 to $300 starting in
2003-04. The lead foundation can pay these dues as a grant expense from the Youth Endowment
Fund.
Corporate Giving Programs
Corporate Giving Program dues are based on the level of grantmaking. Dues categories have been
revised to correspond to the proposed rates for foundations, based on a 5% spending policy. An
example is that the $1 - $2 million asset category for foundations would equal the $50,000 $100,000 grants category for corporate giving programs. It is recommended that the top category
be capped at $1 million + in grants. There are currently eight categories of $2.5 million and
greater, with no corporate giving program members falling in this range.

Re:

cc:

Vicki Rosenberg, Dave Lindberg and all CMF Staff

I am pleased to enclose the Plan of Work for the fiscal year April I, 2002 to March 31,
2003. With the leadership of Vicki Rosenberg, all of the staff have done a great job in
preparing this document to refl ect the input received from many of you in the Strategic
Planning Process. While an important road map for the next year, this Plan is a flexible
document that we expect to change as needs and opportunities with CMF members
unfold during the year.
This Plan has been reviewed with the Executive Committee that recommended presenting
it to you for consideration and approval. Staff will present a Power Point presentation
summarizing this Plan at the Board Meeting on February 19. We look forward to the
discussion.
Please note that new activities appear in bold! type on the Plan of Work. All other items
are continuation of current activities.
RESOLVED that the 2002-2003 Plan of Work be approved as recommended by the
Executive Committee.

Memo to:

CMF Board of Trustees

From:

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

RE:

CMF 2002-03 Budget

Resolved: That the CMF Board of Trustees approve the Council of Michigan
Foundations' 2002-03 budget as recommended by the Audit &amp; Finance and Executive
Committees.
After an extensive strategic planning process, management is pleased to present the attached
budget for fiscal year 2002-03 (April I, 2002 to March 31, 2003). The Audit &amp; Finance
Committee approved the 2002-03 budget on January 17, 2002, with approval from the
Executive Committee coming on January 22, 2002. Before reviewing the attached detailed
budget management would like to highlight several issues that were examined during the
budgeting process.

Cost Containment Measures

In looking at the next five years management has taken several steps to contain costs and in
some cases reduce costs in the coming year, total estimated savings of $ 130,000.
•
•
•

•

A position for an additional support person in Grand Haven that was budgeted in the
current year will not be fill ed.
The drug card and office co-pay has been increased resulting in an annual savings of
$20,000 for 2002-03.
With the recent resignation of the Assistant VP for Corporate &amp; Educational Services,
staff assignments have been restructured, along with the addition of an assistant in the
Southeast Michigan office. These changes will result in a net savings of
approximately $28,000 per year.
The full-time community foundation Youth Project Coordinator position is currently
being restructured to a consulting position, with a cost savings of $50,000 per year.

CMF Dues Structure
After several meetings with the Strategic Planning Task Force, Membership Task Force and
Audit &amp; Finance Committee, management is proposing that adjustments in the current dues
structure be delayed until fiscal year 2003-04 .
In fiscal year 2003-04 management is proposing to expand the current dues categories from
15 to 21 and with an across the board 20% increase.

Since the October Board Meeting, staff has been busy developing the Plan of Work and Budget,

While not public news at this time, I want to confirm that Bill White, Chairman and President of
the C.S. Mott Foundation, has been selected by the Council on Foundations to receive the
Distinguished Grantmaker Award at the Annual Conference in Chicago on April 30. Bill is
being recognized for the many accomplishments he has made to philanthropy during his 25-year
tenure as head of the Matt Foundation. We are excited for Bill and look forward to recognizing
him at the Michigan Evening on Tuesday night, April 30 in Chicago.

President's Report
February 2002

A Michigan IDA Partnership Success Story
As a self-employed, single mom, Patty Bitson was struggling week-to-week. She had a large
amount of debt and was unable to get ahead financially. The idea of ever owning a home seemed
improbable.
Patty wanted to purchase a home for herself and her children, but was unsure how to negotiate a
home purchase and, most importantly, how she would ever save enough money. After reading a
newspaper advertisement and speaking with a friend, Patty found out that she could change her
future through the Newaygo County Community Services Individual Development Accounts
(IDA) program, in partnership with NCCS Center for Nonprofit Housing (CNH).
Patty began the process of owning a home by meeting with Michelle Petz, NCCS IDA Program
Coordinator. During the process, Patty started with $84 a month and as her income increased she
would add additional money each month. She saved for 6 months. Patty received personal
counseling on money management, learned how to correct credit problems and centered on the
goal of becoming a homeowner. She had some credit card debt that she was able to pay off and
she attended the Home ownership and Economic Literacy classes tlu·ough MSU Extension in
Newaygo County. Financial Management classes included four 2-hour classes and in addition
she received one on one counseling from CNH, another community partner to the program. She
attended four 3-hour Homeownership classes to complete her asset-specific training.
Homeownership was an idea Patty had only hoped would come true, but through hard work and
sound money management skills, her dream came true. As a homeowner, Patty realized "I can do
things for myself, feel more independent and feel more security for me and my children. I
believe I've set an example to my kids that with hard work you can accomplish anything."

Home purchased by Patty Bitson on December 31 ", 2001 through the NCCS IDA Program.
