�As Chairman of Union Bank, now part of Bank One, and of the Foremost Insurance Company, Edward Frey
and his wife Frances gave generously of their time and resources to make the greater Grand Rapids area a
better place to live. They helped to establish Junior Achievement and Grand Valley State University (GVSU)
and supported the arts, economic development, education, family, and health care, including Planned
Parenthood ofWestern Michigan.
In 1974, the Frey Foundation was established. After the Freys' passing in rg88 and 1989, their work
passed to their children, Mary Caroline (Twink), John, David and Ted. Each has been and continues today
to be involved through their own time, talent and resources in helping to find solutions that will make the
quality of life in their individual communities more equitable and rewarding.
Twink Frey is founder and chair of the Nokomis Foundation, a private women's foundation. In 2003,
she received the national Women's Funding Network's Changing the Face of Philanthropy award.
Founding Chair of the Frey Foundation, Twink is the creative, catalyzing force behind many Grand
Rapids organizations, including Gilda's Club, the Grand Rapids Women's History Council and the
Center for Women at Aquinas College.
John is active in many Charlevoix area organizations including the Charlevoix Community Foundation,
the Little Traverse Conservancy and the Charlevoix Area Hospital Development Council. A Trustee of
the Frey Foundation, his interests include international projects such as Earth University in Costa Rica.
The Economic Club of Grand Rapids honored David as its 2003 Business Person of the Year in part for
his leadership as co-chair of the Grand Action Committee . A past Chair of the Grand Rapids Community
Foundation, David chaired the Grand Design 2000 Committee responsible for the private sector's role in
GVSU's downtown campus. He chairs the Frey Foundation and is a trustee of the Gerald R. Ford Foundation,
Grand Rapids Art Museum Foundation and GVSU Foundation.
A founding trustee of the Petoskey-Harbor Springs Area Community Foundation, Ted is involved in the
Harbor Springs and Petoskey communities and serves as a director of the Grand Rapids Community
College Foundation and a Trustee of the Frey Foundation.
The Council of Michigan Foundations is grateful for the support of the Frey family members through
service on many committees and task forces, including the Board of Trustees of which Edward and Twink
served as members and from which John retires at this Annual Conference. Through their service
and philanthropy in our state, they have shared in our mission to increase, improve and enhance philanthropy
in Michigan. The Board of Trustees is honored to recognize the Frey family members as Honorary Chairs
of the 31st Annual Conference.

�DEAR GRANTMAKERS,

Join us this fall for the Council of Michigan Foundations' 31st Annual Conference.
It's certain to be the year's best educational and networking event for Michigan

Opportunities Together" has never been more important._The conference-designed
by and for foundation staff and trustees-will offer 40+ sessions on a wide range
of skills, issues, and topics, a Boston College workshop for corporate grantmakers ,
site visits, tours, great evening events, and plenty of time to network.
The conference will be held in Grand Rapids, a recent finalist for "All-American"
City. Along with great n ew restaurants and a flourishing cultural scene , Grand
Rapids is now home to the downtown campus of Grand Valley State University , the
VanAndel Res earch Institute, the DeVos Convention Center, and more.
We are pleased to be recognizing the Frey Family-Twink, David , John and Tedas Honorary Conference Co-Chairs. Their leadership through the Nokomis
Foundation and Frey Foundation has benefited Kent , Charlevoix, and Emmet
Counties as well as our entire state.

to the CMF 403(b) Plan that may be necessary from time to time to keep the plan in
compliance with the latest regulatory requirements and that will not have a financial
impact on the organization.

Background
Occasionally CMF receives notification from Mutual of America, our 403(b) Thrift Plan
provider, that certain provisions in the plan should be amended to keep the plan in
compliance with the latest Federal laws. In the past each amendment required a vote of the
CMF Executive Committee enact the change. Legal counsel, Clark Hill, has recommended a
blanket resolution be passed by the CMF Board of Trustees authorizing the Chair and
President to approve changes on behalf of the Board that do not have a financia l impact on
CMF.
The latest notification came from Mutual of America in December 2002 advising us to adopt
a plan amendment to comply with certain provisions of the Economic Growth and Tax Relief
Reconciliation Act of2001 (EGTRRA).

Memo to:

CMF Board of Trustees

From:

Dav id R. Lindberg

RE:

CMF 2003-04 Budget

RESOLVED that the 2003-04 Budget, as recommended by the CMF Executive and
Audit &amp; Finance Committees, be approved.
On January 23, 2003 both the Executive Committee and Audit &amp; Finance Committee
reviewed the enclosed budget and recommended their approval to the Board of Trustees.
Both committees want to highlight the fact that the two sources of income supporting the
Member Services budget are tentative for fiscal year starting April 1, 2003 . The committees
feel it is critical to move forward with the dues increase scheduled for April 1, 2004, to
replace this source of funding.
Tobacco Settlement
KYIP Admin :fees

$60,000
$44,000

In reviewing the attached Member Services budget it should be noted the budget has
increased from 2002-03 due to the following reasons:
•

•
•

Attendance at the November 2003 Annual Conference is expected to increase from
650 for Mackinac Island to 800, which should increase revenue and expenses by
$297,000. Also the registration fees for 2003 conference will once again include meal
costs. On Mackinac Island attendees purchased meal tickets directly from the Grand
Hotel.
Expanded educational events for members, $82,000
2.75% wage increase, 27% health insurance increase

Member Services
Revenue
Note 1: Member Contributions
In projecting dues for 2003-04 we have estimated members' assets to decrease by 8% for the

one-year ending 12-31 -02. With annual dues based on the asset levels of our members, dues
from existing members have been projected to decrease by $30,000 for 2003-04.
At the request of the Finance Committee management reviewed the dues calculation using
the Lipper bench mark calculation of -10.67% for the one year ended 12-31-02, based on the
current 70-30 asset allocation mix for the CMF Endowment Funds. This review indicates a
possible further reduction of $5,500 from the amount presented in the budget.
For 2003-04 a net gain of 5 new members is projected, calculated as follows.
New - 15 with assets averaging $500,000, dues of $360 each
Dropped - 10 with dues averaging $360 each

$5,400
(3,600)

Note 2: Additional Member Contributions

Contributions are anticipated to remain constant for 2003-04.
Note 3: Other Grants

In December 2002 CMF signed the latest Tobacco Settlement contract with the State of
Michigan totaling $4,000,000, for calendar year 2003. The State has since notified CMF the
contract will likely be reduced to $2,000,000 as one of their budget tightening moves, with
$100,000 for administrative support, $50,000 for evaluation and $1,850,000 being distributed
to Michigan Community Foundations. $60,000 of the Tobacco Settlement administrative
dollars will be used to support the CMF Member Services budget for 2003-04. Should this
contract with the State not be renewed; this funding source would be replaced by the dues
increase scheduled for April1, 2004.
If the State cancels the current 2003 contract CMF will request that a portion of the $182,000
in accumulated interest earnings from the Tobacco Settlement funds be used to fund ongoing
staff support to this project.

starting in 1995, from the grant dollars CMF received on the W.K Kellogg Foundation Youth
Challenge. Income available for spending, which totals $297,000 for 2003-04, is based on a
20 quarter rolling average at a 5% rate. This endowment fund supports a FTE equivalent of 4
staff devoted to community foundation programming activities, plus associated supplies,
telephone and other office related expenses.
Note 5: Conference &amp; Meetings
$297,000 of the increase is due to projected attendance for the November 2003 Annual
Conference of 800, versus 650 for Mackinac Jsland. The November 2003 conference should
generate a surplus of$77,000. Also included in this increase are the meal costs that will once
again be included in the registration fees for 2003. On Mackinac Island attendees purchased
tickets directly from the hotel which resulted in a lower registration fee.
The remaining increase is due to tl1e following educational opportunities that are new for
2003-04 or have been expanded from the previous year.

Part of the long-term funding plan is to bring the annual conference registration fees in line
with other conferences around the country of similar size. The first year of the two-year
phase in period raised full registration fees by $75. The second year (2003-04) increase will
again be another $75 to $575.

Note 7: Other Income/Consulting
CMF is receiving 50 basis points (.5%) to administer the KYIP Endowment Fund that was set
up as a donor advised fund by Kellogg for the purpose of establishing permanent endowment
funds at three KYIP sites located in Michigan. Eventually this money will be transferred to
the three KYIP sites once they have investment committees in place to oversee the
management of those funds. This grant was awarded to MCFV and therefore is included in
the Michigan Community Foundations' Ventures balance sheet.
The budget also reflects test marketing a limited menu of services to financial advisors.

Expenses
Note 9: Wages

An overall wage increase of 2.75% has been budgeted for 2003-04, which is in line with
anticipated increases by other associations around the country. The CPI for the 12 months
ending 12-31-02 is 2.43%.
Under our current policy full-time employees who do not participate in the CMF provided
health insurance coverage are eligible to be reimbursed up to $1,000 in out-of-pocket medical
expenses. This amount has remained constant since April 1, 2000, while over this same time
period health insurance rates have increased at 42%. At the January 23, 2003 Executive
Committee meeting management's recommendation to increase this benefit to $1 ,500,
keeping the percentage increase in line with the health care premium increases, was
approved.
The increase from the prior year is primarily due to the following items:
2.75% wage increase
27% increase health insurance
Filling support position in August 2002
Annuity Plan portion of wage increase

$26,000
20,000

Note 10: Occupancy

The increase from the prior year is due to a portion (5 months) of the lease costs for the
Southeastern Michigan office for 2002-03 being covered by the funding received to support
the establishment ofthis office. Funding for this office is now fully absorbed into the
Member Services 2003-04 Budget.
Note 11: Equipment &amp; Furniture

3 1st Annual Conference Report

In January 2003, work commenced on planning for the 31st CMF Annual Conference at the
Amway Grand Hotel in Grand Rapids. The Conference will begin on Monday, November 10
and conclude on Wednesday, November 12, 2003.
Following is a quick overview of the history of the Annual Conference and the draft program
for the 2003 Conference. RSVPs are currently being returned by members invited to serve on
the Program Committee. To date, those responses have been very positive. As usual, the
Committee will include members from across the state representing the range of foundations
that comprise CMF's membership. A list of those invited to serve on the Committee is
attached.

Participation: Historical &amp; 2003 Projection
CMF introduced its annual conference in 1983. Over time, participation has grown from less
than 50 individuals to 1,000 ( 1999 and 2000 in Grand Rapids &amp; Traverse City respectively).
In 2001 , attendance declined due to the recent events of September 11 (688 in Detroit at 328
full, 179 partial, 181 complementary). The off the beaten path location and soft economy kept
participation at similar levels in 2002 (645 in Mackinac Island at 471 full, 43 partial, 131
complementary). The 2003 conference projection assumes that a strong program, popular
location, access for partial registrants to attend special evening events and keynote sessions, as
well as the focus on foundation accountability will draw 800 participants to Grand Rapids
(520 full, 150 partial, and 130 complementary.)
Program Design
The 31st Annual Conference will include 3 plenary sessions, 8 mini-plenaries, 24 concurrent
1
sessions, and 6 site visits. Based on positive responses from participants at the 30 h Annual
Conference on Mackinac Island, the core competency and public policy issue session tracks
introduced in 2002 will be repeated in 2003. In response to some concerns raised about the
absence of"foundation type" tracks, half-day pre-conference workshops will be offered on
Monday morning for community foundations and for corporate grantmakers. The Family
Foundation Retreat will be held the weekend immediately prior to the Annual Conference
providing a special opportunity for those members.
In addition to the sessions noted above, the Conference will also offer: Breakfast Roundtable
discussions, Dr. Is In consultations on topics rangnng from legal to governance, and an extended
seminar for experienced grantmakers.

Council of
Michigan
Foundations

Serving grantmakers. Advancing giving.

Date:

February 10, 2003

Memo to:

CMF Board of Trustees

From:

David R. Lindberg

RE:

CMF &amp; Supporting Organizations November 30, 2002 Financial Statements

RESOLVED that the Council of Michigan Foundations' and Support Organizations'
November 30, 2002 internal financial report, as recommended by the CMF Audit &amp;
Finance Committee, be accepted.
Enclosed is the financial report as of November 30, 2002. Management would like to
highlight two items in the attached report.
At the September 29, 2002 board meeting the CMF Board of Trustees approved the
establishment of the Margaret Riecker Leadership Fund. This fund was established to honor
the leadership Ranny Riecker provided in her 26 years as trustee and twice Chair ofCMF.
The purpose of this fund is to recognize innovative leadership that increases, enhances and
improves philanthropy in the state of Michigan. To date we have received pledges totaling
$1,015,000.
For the year ending March 31, 2003 a surplus of $72,000 has been projected for Member
Services, which includes both the CMF Core Operations and the Community Foundation
Endowment Fund.

Member Services
Note 1: Member Contributions
While overall dues from existing members has remained relatively constant we expect
contributions for 2002-03 to be $32,000 below budget for the following reasons.
Revenue from new members for last half of 2001 -02 less than budget
Revenue from new members for 2002-03 less than budget

$18,000
14,000

The projected membership count at 3-31-03 is 400 versus a budget of 458.
Membership at 1-7-03
Projected loss 1-8-03 to 3-3 1-03
Balance 3-31-03

�Note 2: Conference Income &amp; Expenses
The variance from budget is due to meal charges not being included in the registration fees
for the Annual Conference on Mackinac Island. Registrants purchased tickets for meals
directly from the Grand Hotel. The following meetings have added to the overall surplus for
2002-03.

Note 3: Publication Income
The projected variance from budget is due to sales of the 13th Edition of the Michigan
Foundation Directory being less than budgeted. Over the last couple of editions we have seen
a decrease in demand for the print version and have scaled back copies from 2,500 for the
1i11 Edition, to 1,500 for the l3 1h Edition.

Endowment Funds
Overall the endowment fund expenditures are projected to remain below budget for 2002-03.

Note 4: Other Grants- Riecker Leadership Fund
To date payments totaling $225,000 have been received towards pledges totaling $1 ,015,000.

Note 5: Investment Income
Investment income for the endowment funds, which are invested 70% stocks and 30% bonds,
is budgeted at $0 for the year ending March 31, 2003.

Russell G. Mawby Fund
To date has supported the following items
Learning to Give Washington fundraising efforts
Giving &amp; Volunteering publication
Establishing Charitable Foundation publication
Support for members reception 6-13-02
Sponsorships (MNA Non-Profit Day, etc.)

Re:

CMF 12-31-02 Investment Report

RESOLVED that the December 31, 2002 Investment Report as reviewed by the
Investment Committee, be accepted.
On February 11, 2003 the Investment Commiittee will meet to review the enclosed repmt.
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), meets to review the investment performance for the
operating and permanent endowment funds. The information contained in this section
will be reviewed by the Investment Committee on February 11, 2003 .
At the November 15, 2002, Investment Committee meeting, after presentations by both
Bank One and Comerica, the committee approved a change in the asset allocation mix to
include the following asset classes.
Munder REIT Fund
Bank High Yield Bond Composite Fund

The enclosed Investment Report is presented in three sections.

Investment Performance Report
The benchmark is based on the targeted asset allocation formula listed below, using the
Lipper median returns provided by Comerica on a quarterly basis.

The Lipper returns are based on the following asset classes.
Lipper Large Cap Core
Lipper Mid Cap Core
Lipper Small Cap Core
Lipper Real Estate Equity
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 V.P. offinance 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 to the CMF general checking account.
Investment Performance Comparison Report

One of the benchmarks the Investment Committee has been tracking over the last couple
of years 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, 2002.

State of Michigan Foundation Liaison
Goal - To support an executive staff position within the Governor's
office that would focus on opportunities to connect the common
interests of grantmakers and state government.
Background
Governor Granholm and a group of foundation leaders have expressed interest in the
possibility of creating and supporting an executive staff position (Foundation Liaison)
within the Governor's office that would focus on opportunities to connect the common
interests of grantmakers and state government.
For a Foundation Liaison to be successful, the supporting foundation community and the
Governor's office must agree upon the expectations and limitations of the position. This
document provides the basis for a Memorandum of Understanding that will include:
specific objectives, how the position would function in state government, how the
position would relate to the grantmaking cotmnunity both through the Council of
Michigan Foundations (CMF) and directly, and a plan for how the position would
initially be funded by foundations and replaced totally with public support by the start of
year four of the Granholm Administration.
It is recognized that both the State budget and the endowed assets of found ations have
been adversely affected by the economy and weak stock market performance over the
past three years. As a result many foundations have been forced to reduce their giving
levels for 2003 in order to preserve the original values of donor gifts (principal).
Therefore, while opportunities may be developed for funding partnerships between
foundations and state government, the Foundation Liaison is not being presented as a
fundraising position for State Government.
This position builds on the many years of close cooperation between the foundation
community and previous Governors in strengthening the nonprofit sector and the
environment for giving and volunteering in Michigan. For exan1ple, the foundation
community worked closely with Governor George Romney, while he was Governor and
in later years, in supporting development of a network of volunteer centers- now known
as Volunteer Centers of Michigan. In the early 1980s, at a time when the State's
w1employment was in double digits, the foundation community and Governor
Blanchard's administration collaborated on development of the Michigan Investment
Fund.
Throughout the 1990s the foundation community has worked with Governor Engler and
the Legislature on a number of collaborations including formation of the Michigan
Community Service Commission and partnering on its projects such as the Annual
Governor's Awards on Volunteerism, creation of endowed community foundations
covering all 83 counties with the help of a permanent tax credit, and distribution of
tobacco settlement funds through these community foundations. Most recently the
Foundation conununity has worked with the Michigan Community Services Commission

�DRAFT - State of Michigan Foundation Liaison

Page 2

and Michigan Nonprofit Association to respond to the Governor and Legislature's
support for endowing Connect Michigan Alliance - an innovative hub to promote and
support volunteering. These examples have made Michigan a national model for publicprivate partnerships and a strong nonprofit sector.
Objectives

The following four objectives provide a starting point for framing the Memorandum of
Understanding.
1. Increasing state officials' understanding of philanthropy and the potential

roles it can play in partnership witb state government

Because of their years of grantmaking experience, some foundation tmstees and staff
represent a tremendous source of knowledge. However, evaluation findings that could
inform state government are often left on the shelf or remain with institutions that do not
have the capacity or opportunity to communicate with the appropriate state executive
branch officials or members of the legislature. The Liaison would work with the
Governor's staff, appropriate state agencies and targeted members of the legislature to
increase the understanding of the potential roles philanthropy can play with Michigan ' s
public sector. In addition, the Liaison would work with the President and Tmstees of the
Council of Michigan Foundations as appropriate in its work with the Executive Branch
and Legislature as summarized below in furthering relationships with foundations.
2. Supporting models that improve the efficiency and/or effectiveness of state
government

Foundations are in a unique position to work with both nonprofit organizations and
government entities on program models that seek to better serve the public and specific
target populations. Foundations could support evaluation of such programs that inform
state policy and provide an ongoing opportunity for continuous improvement in the
operation of state-mn programs. The Liaison would provide information and technical
support to state officials as they develop relationships with state and national funders for
program models that can support the Governor's strategic policy priorities. Because State
government is often looking for partners for program implementation to respond to
matching fund requirements of federal grant initiatives, the Liaison can develop a process
for communicating these opportunities to funders.
3. Responding to opportunities for new local and regional public private
partnerships that better serve populations in the implementation of
government programs

Because many local and regional foundations have been involved in their communities
for periods ranging from 75 to 10 years, they are a resource to assist state government on
how programs are locally implemented. Some of the local and regional public-private
partnerships that already exist could be effective models for implementation of the
Governor' s policy priorities. The Liaison would identify such models as well as their
2

Page 3

private partners that may be wi lling to considler support that would enhance or make more
efficient use of state and state administered funds in local communities.

4. Attracting new national grants and federal dollars to Michigan
There are national private foundations that could be a source of new resources for efforts
important to our state. There are also a number of federal grants that Michigan could
apply for if the correct public/private relationships are created. The Liaison would assist
the nonprofit community, private foundations, and appropriate state departments to attract
these new dollars to our state.

Position Design
Serving at the pleasure of the Governor and reporting directly to the Governor, the
Liaison should be staffed by a person with a working knowledge of both philanthropy
and state government- able to create the appropriate relationships with the foundation
community and with the departments of state government. It will be important for the
Liaison to be seen as a credible member of the Administration in order for this person to
be able to work with and through the existing departments of state government, to
w1derstand the expectations and desires of those departments, and to communicate those
with specific foundations on partnership opportwlities. The Liaison must work to manage
the expectations of both members of state government and the foundation community at a
time of fiscal restraint and limitations.

Limitations - It will be important that state government and the foundation community
agree on what this position cannot do. The Liaison should not be used to replace existing
government dollars or to fund "foundations" or "trusts" that are run by or for state
government. It should not be seen as a development office for state government or as a
gatekeeper to state government.
Funding the Liaison
It will be important to balance the funding needs of the Liaison with the need to
institutionalize this position within state government before the end of the Governor's
first term. It is proposed that foundations would provide three years of funding: 100% in
years one and two, and 50% in year three. In the fourth year, state government would be
expected to assume all costs for the Liaison.
The budget supported by the foundations would include the salary and benefits cost for
the Liaison and an Administrative Assistant, and modest travel expenses. It is estimated
that the personnel and travel costs could be as much as $250,000 a year, or $625,000 over
the three year period. The state is expected to cover needed office expenses, such as
phone and postage, from the outset.
A number of foundations have expressed interest in participating in this special
partnership. Two foundations, The Hudson-Webber Foundation and the Kellogg
Foundation, have already verbally pledged a total of $150,000. It is anticipated that the
3

remaining costs for year one could be raised in the first quarter of2003, and the
remaining funds necessary for years two and three could be committed by the end of
2003. It is recognized that interested foundations will need to receive formal proposals
and would proceed within their normal grantmaking cycles.
Role of the Council of Michigan Foundations (CMF)
The Council of Michigan Foundations (CMF), a nonprofit membership association of
more than 400 grantmakers, has agreed to serve as the fiduciary agent for foundation
grants that would fund the Liaison. CMF would be the grantee for any grants for the
Liaison and would either distribute the funds to state government to pay for related
expenses or enter into independent consulting contracts jointly with the State for the two
positions being considered. CMF would form an Advisory Committee of up to five
foundation representatives to meet at least annually with the Liaison and other targeted
Governor' s staff to review progress in meeting the objectives identified above.
CMF has a 30 year relationship with state government and is viewed as a nonpartisan,
neutral partner. CMF staff will continue to work with the Governor, Governor's staff,
Attorney General and Legislature on regulatory issues affecting philanthropy, such as the
permanent community foundation tax credit. Existing CMF partnerships with state
government include: the Tobacco Settlement Partnership through the Michigan
Community Services Commission; the Emergency Homelessness Prevention Project with
MSHDA; the Michigan IDA Partnership with FIA; and the Michigan AIDS Fund with
the Department of Community Health.

In addition, CMF has an active public policy committee that has identified six specific
issues for attention by grantmakers: K-12 school reform, access to health care; welfare
reform; workforce preparedness and land use. The Liaison would work with the Public
Policy Committee but not be involved in lobbying matters affecting philanthropy. In
addition, the Liaison would work closely with CMF staff to use as appropriate existing
communication tools with grantmakers.

Council of
Michigan
Foundations

Serving grontmakers. Advancing giving.

February 8, 2003
Memo to: David Campbell, Chair, and Members of the Board ofTrustees
From:

Libby Maynard and David Kennedy,
Co-Chairs Government Relations Committee

Re:

Government Relations Committee Report

cc:

Rob Collier, President

Annual Foundations on the Hill Visit
On February 4 and 5, staff and trustees from 15 CMF members and 2 potential members joined
Rob, Vicki and Dave for meetings with both Senators, 12 Congressional Members and staff from
the remaining three Members. A list of the participants is attached. We provided each Member
111
with the 13 edition ofThe Michigan Foundation Directory, a listing of the grantmaking by
foundations in their districts, information on schools in their districts using the Learning to Give
lesson plans, and fact sheets on the Michigan IDA Partnership, and Tobacco Settlement
Partnership.
We appreciate the hospitality and support ofCMF Trustee Martin Taylor and DTE Energy for
again hosting our educational reception and dinner. Senator Carl Levin spoke to everyone at the
reception and welcoming comments were offered by Dot Ridings, President of the Council on
Foundations (COF), and Allison Wiley, President ofthe Forum of Regional Associations of
Grantmakers. We were joined for dinner by our new Congressman Thad McCotter, who
expressed his suppott for simplification of the excise tax on private foundations. In addition,
after dinner we had brief remarks from John Edie, Vice President and Legal Counsel for COF,
and Ellen Dadisman, Vice President of Government Relations for COF.
We again focused our discussions on two legislative priorities: the IRA Charitable Rollover and
Simplification ofthe Excise Tax on Private Foundations to a Flat One Percent. These two
priorities are reviewed in the two attached issue papers. SB 272, the Care Act has been
introduced in the Senate by Senators Santorum and Lieberman, and contains the IRA Charitable
Rollover. SB 256, the Charitable Tax Section of the CARE Act was marked up by the Senate
Finance Committee, chaired by Senator Grassley, while we were in Washington. With support
from Majority Leader Frist, the CARE Act is on track to be considered by the Senate without
amendments. Senator Levin indicated that while he does not support the faith-based provisions
in the CARE Act, he feels that it will receive more than the 60 votes needed in the Senate to be
passed.
We learned that agreement has not been reached in the House on who will re-introduce HR 7, the
bill passed in the last Congress that contained both the IRA Charitable Rollover and
Simplification of the Excise Tax. There is strong support for both of these provisions by
Members of the Michigan delegation and a willingness to sign on as co-sponsors. Two of the
original sponsors of HR 7 have retired, so Congressman Crane is now recruiting colleagues to
join him in re-introducing the bill.

�Government Relations Report
February 2003
Page 2

Bill Richardson and Rob Collier met with Lisa Ridlin, stafffor the House Tax Committee
chaired by Representative Thomas of California. She indicated that she needs help in making the
case that the additional funds freed up by simplifying the excise tax will in fact be used for
charitable distributions and not added to the administrative budgets of foundations. Rob Collier
will be taking the lead in preparing a packet of materials for her.
We also learned that Representative Stearns of Florida has introduced HR 199 to repeal the
excise tax. While there are 19 co-sponsors, Representative Camp and other Members of the
Michigan delegation do not feel this Bill will receive widespread support. In addition,
Representative Gilmore of Ohio has reintroduced HR 275 to tighten up reporting practices for
corporate philanthropy. The feeling seems to be that this Bill wi ll only become popular if there
is another corporate scandal and that members of Congress feel they took care of this problem
with last year's passing of the Sarbanes-Oaxley Bill.

Briefing with Michigan Attorney General Mike Cox
Now that Mr. Cox has completed the reorganization of his Department, a briefing is being
scheduled for later this month with Mr. Cox and Mr. Robert Ianni, the new Director of the
Consumer Protection Division, which includes the Charitable Exempt Department.

Data on Giving in Michigan and March Legislative Briefing
The attached one page sheet provided to the Michigan Congressional delegation summarizes data
on giving from three sources.
First, the annual State of the State Survey done in November by Michigan State University
confirms that giving by individuals continues to exceed 80% of the population. The survey also
indicates that more than 70% of residents intend to maintain their charitable giving in 2003 at the
same rate as in 2002.
Second, the 13th edition of The Michigan Foundation Directory reports that more than 200 new
foundations have been created in the past two years in Michigan.
Third, 72 CMF members responded to the Zoomerang survey in January requesting information
on their planned level of giving in 2003. More than two thirds of this group report that their
giving in 2003 will be below the level of2002.
This information will be shared in a briefing being scheduled for Michigan legislators and their
staff in early March. It has already been provided to Chuck Wilbur, Director of Programs and
Policy for Governor Granholm.

CMF' s Public Policy Committee
On January 28, 47 grantmakers met with Tom Watkins, State Superintendent of Public
Instruction, in the first in a series of Briefings for grantmakers with State Department Directors
being hosted by the Public Policy Committee. Participants will be contacted about possible
interest in an informal affinity group offunders interested in education. We are presently
working on a briefing with Mr. Hollister, Director of the Department of Consumer and Industry
Services for late February or March. Vicki Rosenberg will provide further information on the
work of the Cornn1ittee in her report at the Board Meeting on the Plan of Work.

�IRA Charitable Rollover Legislation

Position: The Council of Michigan Foundations and the Council on Foundations support legislation that
would allow taxpayers to make contributions directly to charities from their Individual Retirement Accounts
(IRA) and other tax-deferred retirement assets without incurring tax liability.
Background: Because of the stock market boom of the 1990s, many Americans have large IRAs, some in
seven figures. Interest has grown among taxpayers 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 is
added to the donor's taxable income and 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 giving 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 5912
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.
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 7012. 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 included in S. 1924, the Charity Aid, Recovery and Empowerment ("CARE") Act of 2002
sponsored by Senators Rick Santorum (R-PA) and Joe Lieberman (D-CT). On June 19, 2002, the Senate
Finance Committee passed a version of the CARE Act that would allow donors at age 5912 to make taxfree rollovers to establish life income gifts (such as a charitable gift annuity). However, donors would have
to wait until age 70% to make tax-free rollovers as outright gifts. Despite support from the White House
and the charitable giving community, the Senate was unable to bring the CARE Act to a vote on the Senate
floor in the 107th Congress.
1OBth Status: On January 23, 2003, Senator Hutchison (R-TX) introduced S. 209, a bill that would again
allow IRA owners over age 5912 to make tax-free distributions directly to a qualified charity or deferred
giving plan. Senators Santorum and Lieberman, with Senate Finance Chairman Charles Grassley (R-IA)
and Senator Evan Bayh (D-IN) included a version of this provision when they introduced the CARE Act of
2003 on January 30.

�Excise Tax on Private Foundations
Position: The Council of Michigan Foundations and the Council on Foundations advocates repeal of the excise tax on
private foundation investment income with simplification to a flat 1% the first step.
Background: Generally, private foundations 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 exceeds the
average percentage of its distributions over the five preceding taxable years. Generally, private non-operating
foundations 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 by private investment income-$490 million in 2002-acts as a
credit in reducing the 5 percent requirement.

Because the tax paid qualifies as a credit toward the minimum distribution, eliminating the tax would automatically result
in an additional $490 million in qualifying distributions per year-about 90 percent of which typically go to grantsaccording to Internal Revenue Service (IRS) estimates.
The policy presents several problems:
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 their 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 revenue raised by the tax is not being used for its intended purpose: to cover costs of IRS oversight of exempt
organizations. Instead, while the revenue raised by the tax has steadily increased, the number of IRS audits of private
foundations has declined, from 1,200 in 1990 to 191 in 1999. The fiscal 2001 budget of the IRS's exempt-organization
division is $58 million.
Other tax-exempt organizations are audited but are not subject to a similar excise tax.
The Joint Committee on Taxation (JCT) staff has recommended repeal of the tax. In an April2001 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 agreed with these points and 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."
Legislative History: In the 108th Congress, both the House and Senate introduced bills to repeal the excise tax. In
2001 , Reps. Cliff Stearns (R-FL) and Ways and Means Committee member Phil Crane (R-IL) introduced H.R. 804, which
would repeal the excise tax for tax years beginning after 2001. A version of this proposal, providing for a simplification
and reduction of the excise tax to 1 percent, was included in H.R. 7, the Community Solutions Act, which passed the
House in July 2001. Senators Rick Santorum (R-PA) and Joe Lieberman (D-CT) also included a version of the excise tax
inS. 1924, the Charity Aid, Recovery and Empowerment (CARE) Act. However, it was not included in the Chairman's
Mark that passed the Senate Finance Committee on June 19, 2002. The Senate was unable to bring the CARE Act to a
vote on the Senate floor before the end of the 107th Congress.
108th Status: On January 7, Representative Cliff Stearns (R-FL) introduced H.R. 199, a bill to repeal the excise tax for
years beginning after December 31, 2003 (H.R. 199). Reduction of the excise tax was not included in the CARE Act of
2003, introduced on January 30 by Santorum and Lieberman, along with Senate Finance Chairman Charles Grassley (RIA) and Senator Evan Bayh (D-IN).

SENATE COMMITTEE ON FINANCE ON FEBRUARY 5, 2003
A. Modifications to the CARE Act of 2003

The fo llowing modifications are made to the provisions of the CA RE Act of 2003 .

otilication requirement for exempt entities not currently requir ed to file an annual
information return

1.

The proposal requires certain tax-exempt organizations that are exempt from the
information return (Form 990) fi ling requirement to file an annual notice with the Secretary of
the Treasury. The penalty for failure to file the notice for three consecutive years is loss of
exempt status.
The Chairn1an 's modification extends the penalty of revocation of tax-exempt status to
organizations that arc required to fi le an information return under section 6033(a) (Form 990).
Under the modification, if an organization fai ls to fi le such an mformation return for three
consecutive years, the organization's tax-exempt status is revoked. In addition, an organization's
tax-exemption is revoked if the organization fai ls to meet its filing obligation to the Secretary for
three consecutive years in cases where the organization is subject to the infonnation return
requtrement in one or more years during a three-year period and also is subject to the notice
requtrement for one or more years during the same three-year period.
The revocation is effective from the date that the Secretary determines was the last day
the organization could have timely tiled the third required infonnation return or notice. To again
be recognized as tax-exempt, the organization must apply to the Secretary for recognition of tax-

�exemption, irrespective of whether the organization was required to make an application for
recognition of tax-exemption in order to gain tax-exemption originally.
If, upon application for tax-exempt status after a revocation under the proposal, the
organization shows to the satisfaction of the Secretary reasonable cause for failing to timely file
the required annual returns, the organization's tax-exempt status will be reinstated retroactive to
the date of revocation. An organization may not challenge under the Internal Revenue Code's
declaratory judgment procedures (section 7428) a revocation of tax-exemption made pursuant to
the modification. The modification does not affect an organization's obligation under present
law to file required infonnation returns or existing penalties for failure to file such returns.
In addition to the Secretary's outreach requirements described in the Chairman's mark
with respect to the norice, the Secretary is requi red to publicize in a ttmely manner the
requirements of the modification in appropnate forms and instructtons and other means of
outreach, with respect to the penalty for fa1lure to fi le the information return. The Secretary is
authorized to publish a list of organizations whose exempt status is revoked under the
modification.
2. Suspension of tax-exempt status of terrorist organizations
The Chainnan's modification clarifies that the proposal to suspend the tax-exempt status
of certain terrorist organizations appl ies to organizations that are designated or identified as a
terrorist organization prior to, on, or after the date of enactment. In addition, if an organization is
designated or identified as a terrorist organization prior to the date of enactment, the suspension
of the organization's tax-exemption begins from the date of enactment and is not retroactive to
the date the organization is designated or ident1fied as a terrorist organization.
3. Payments by charitable organizations to victims of war on terrorism
The Chairman's modification extends the proposal to apply to the fami lies of astronauts
killed in the line of duty. The Chainnan 's modification is effective for astronauts killed and
payments made since January I, 2003.
4. Revenue raising proposals
The Chairman's modification changes the effective date with respect to the clarification
of the economic substance doctrine (and the related penalty for transactions that lack economic
substance) to transactions after February 15, 2004.

Winter 2003 Learning to Give Update

Steering Committee Member

LTG Executive Director

Learning to Give continues to make excellent progress on many fronts.

Evaluation Report-L TG appears to positively affect school climate
At its meeting in November, the Steering Committee received a two-year (20002002) evaluation report from the team at Michigan State University. Teachers
and administrators in the pilot schools report that teaching philanthropy at every
grade level in a school building is having a positive impact on school climate,
discipline, and culture. The report also notes that students are clearly learning
the meaning of philanthropy and that the majority are able to use the concepts in
ways that demonstrate knowledge about what they have learned.
National Advisory Committee-Ideas: outreach to novice teachers
The National Advisory Committee met at the Fetzer Institute for two days in
October. This meeting focused on the components of national expansion for LTG
and helped to frame the relationships with the partner universities in nine states
(including Michigan). One of the many excellent suggestions was that LTG,
through the university partners, reach out to novice teachers (the first through
fifth year of teaching) to provide professional development support and the
teaching units. As many as 50% of teachers drop out of teaching in these first
years. If supported so that they remain in teaching, LTG would be incorporated
into and remain a part of their teaching plans for many years.
Pilot Schools-Second Year/preparing for standardized test development
Thirty-three pilot schools in thirteen school districts continue to teach the LTG
units at least two times per year at each grade level. Mid-year de-briefings with
the teachers continue to show high levels of enthusiasm and positive student
outcomes. LTG collects original student work from these classrooms for
evaluation by MSU. At the end of next year, three years into the pilot process,
LTG will have students with enough philanthropy education experience to begin

�the standardized tests that have been prepared at grades 5, 8, and 11. The
schools are listed at the end of this report.
Romulus Public Schools has selected LTG units that are now a required part of
their core curriculum at the elementary level. They will be extending LTG into the
middle and high schools over time, as they follow the "leading edge" of the
elementary students currently involved.
Learning to Give Schools-another level of participation
A number of schools have asked to be involved in LTG, but they are not able to
assure that two units would be taught at every grade level each year for three
years. When a school has committed to having at least 1/3 of the classrooms
teaching LTG for one-year, they have been designated Learning to Give schools
and receive a certificate of participation. The schools are listed at the end of this
report.

Michigan:
New Hampshire:
Wisconsin:

eleven school districts
nineteen school buildings
three LTG elementary schools
one LTG elementary and one LTG middle school

All of the Michigan Congressional Districts have some LTG activity in at least one
of their area schools.
In Florida, the Lutheran Schools are hosting a series of professional development
workshops on LTG in Tampa, Orlando, South Miami, Ft. Myers, and Ft.
Lauderdale for 600 K-12 Lutheran school teachers. In March, LTG will provide a
workshop for teachers in Pinellas County Schools in St. Petersburg.
Intermediate School District Model-second year successes
The Muskegon Area Intermediate School District model to infuse philanthropy
education into the core consulting strategies of the lSD staff is progressing in
Muskegon County. Funded as a joint venture between the MAISD, LTG, the
Muskegon Rotary Foundation, the Community Foundation for Muskegon County
(including a substantial gift from the YAC), and the Michigan Community Service
Commission, this component seeks to have every student in Muskegon County
involved in at least one unit of philanthropy education every year of school.
The consultant hired for this project is a 30+ year high school social studies
teacher who is also an officer with the Michigan Council for the Social Studies.
The Muskegon YAC requested that he provide a verbal report on his progress at
the end of the first year (Fall 2002). We all smiled at how nervous he was to
make this report in person-even after 30 years in front of high school students
daily!
This project will continue for another year.

�Teacher Professional Development-M.Ed. participation grows
The Ferris State University M.Ed. with a concentration in philanthropic studies
continues to attract new students. Online courses were offered in the fall and
winter term. The second summer residential experience, and the first-time
offering of the second residential experience will occur in the summer of 2003.
The first class of M.ED. students will graduate in 2004.
Three summer institutes are planned for the summer of 2003, pending funding
approval: Michigan in partnership with the Dorothy A. Johnson Center at Grand
Valley State University, Indiana in partnership with the Center on Philanthropy at
Indiana University, and Ohio in partnership with the Mandel Center at Case
Western Reserve University.
University Partnerships-waiting for next steps
University partnerships with GVSU, Indiana University, and Case Western
Reserve in Ohio are actively underway. Partnerships with the University of New
Hampshire, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Penn State, San Francisco State,
and the University of Texas-Austin are prepared for launching LTG pending
future funding. Early conversations are underway with the University of South
Florida as the LTG Florida partner.
Other National Partnerships-New Joint Ventures Emerging
The joint venture proposal with the National Council for the Social Studies has
been launched through the submission of companion grant requests to the W. K.

Kellogg Foundation.
In February, LTG met with the Program Committee of the National Assembly of
Health and Human Service Organizations to explore a joint venture that would
make the LTG units more accessible to youth workers nationwide. This planning
continues to move forward and will be discussed with the Lilly Endowment.
A conference call is being scheduled with the National Council of Churches to
explore a similar relationship that would bring LTG units to religious educators.
A fledgling partnership agreement is under consideration with Areyvut, a new
Jewish initiative to bring LTG to Jewish educators in day schools and after school
programs.
LTG has been providing telephone technical assistance to a new K-12 Institute
for Philanthropy that is developing at Westminster Schools in Atlanta, Georgia.
The founder of the institute visited LTG in November to discuss their next steps.

Fairness review and field-testing of the lessons continues.
Web site-Quotation Search Engine in final stages of programming
Usage of the Web site continues to grow monthly. A new search engine program
for the quotation section of the site is in the final stages of development at MSU.
Staff members are currently capturing all of the book references in the lessons,
annotated bibliography of children's literature, and briefing papers to develop a
comprehensive overview of the philanthropy oriented books. This list will become
the basis for a joint venture agreement with Select Books to sell books from the
LTG Web site with a revenue split of 50% of gross profit.

Learning to Give Web Usage Report
The following chart represents three years' of Web site activity from April, 2000
through December, 2002 (current year-to-date) as reported by WebTrends©
software. An Individual User Session is defined as "a session of activity for one
user of a web site. A user session is terminated when a user is inactive for more
than 30 minutes."
The chart represents the years 2000, 2001 and 2002 (YTD). User sessions have
increased each year against the prior year's identical month. The November,
2002 data represented the highest monthly User Session rate (16,716) since
the Web site's inception (December, 2002 data reflects the half-month educator
Christmas break). Web site visits are consistently increasing and November,
2002 shows a 93.6% increase over November, 2001 User Sessions.

Teacher Support Materials-Women Philanthropists Packet
Enclosed is a new poster created by LTG with support from the Michigan
Women 's Foundation. This is the anchor component to a new package being
developed on women philanthropists. The package will include the poster,
women philanthropy-oriented units and lessons, related briefing papers, women
philanthropist quotations, and children's literature and resource suggestions.
Similar packets are being developed on African-American philanthropy,
environmental stewardship, core democratic values, and the arts and
philanthropy.
Finances-proposal submitted to W.K. Kellogg and
conversation with the Lilly Endowment
The W.K. Kellogg Foundation grant (2000-2003) is now fully expended. The Lilly
Endowment funding will carry LTG through June 2003. Other smaller focused
grants continue through the end of 2003.
Two proposals have been submitted to the W.K. Kellogg Foundation in support of
LTG. The first is from the National Council for the Social Studies in a joint venture
to bring LTG to social studies teachers nationwide and to use the NCSS chapter
system to: support the university partnerships; code the LTG resources to
specific state educational standards; enhance the LTG Web site; and develop
online teacher professional development.
The LTG proposal is focused on validating the outcomes in the pilot schools;
integrating LTG into other states through partnerships with selected universities;
continued quality assurance; sustaining the philanthropy education movement;
and completing the formal evaluation.
A meeting with the senior program officers in religion, education, and youth
development at the Lilly Endowment is scheduled for the end of February. The
Endowment has invited LTG to submit another funding request.

Memo to:

David Campbell, Chainnan and Members of the Board of Trustees

From:

Ira Strumwasser &amp; Betsy Upton Stover, Co-Chairs, Membership Committee

Re:

Membership Report

cc:

Rob Collier &amp; Jeri Fischer

Since the September 29, 2002 Board of Trustees meeting, seven foundations have applied for
and met our criteria for membership - five family, one community and one corporate foundation.
In addition, the Michigan Colleges Foundation, a public charitable foundation, has applied for
membership but is not being recommended for m embership because the organization has a single
focus to only fund private colleges in Michigan. As described in the attached criterion for Public
Foundation m embership, single focus public foundations do not qualify for membership.
The fo llowing resolution is therefore presented for your consideration and action.
RESOLVED that the following foundations be approved for membership:
Bingham Family Foundation, St . Clair Shores
Michael D. Murray, Accountant
Delphi Foundation, Troy
Misty Matthews, Coordinator, Community &amp; Government Relations
Henry C. &amp; Audrienne Murray Foundation, Petoskey
James J Murray, President
Edward &amp; Elyse Rogers Family Foundation, Midland
Elyse M. Rogers, President
Roscommon County Community Foundation, Roscommon
Mary T. F1y, Executive Director
Ghassan M. Saab Foundation, F lint
Ghassan Saab, Resident Agent
W.S. &amp; Lois Van Dalson Foundation, Kalamazoo
Alfred J Gemrich, Trustee/Secretary
Background
With the addition of these seven members, we have 15 new members for the year. However, in
addition to the 13 membe rs already dropped from membership as reported at the last Board
Meeting, we are dropping seven additional members at this time.
• The James P. &amp; Debra K. Hovinga Charitable Foundation of Grand Haven
A personal visit this fall confim1ed that the Foundation is not active but will rejoin once it is
reactivated by family members .

�Membership Report
February 2003
Page 2

• The Alger Regional Community Foundation in Munising
This independent community foundation has been absorbed into the Community Foundation of
the Upper Peninsula and will now become a member with community foundation affiliate status
because of its Kellogg Youth Fund.
• Brackett Memorial Fund
The Fund's contact reports assets are too low to merit continuing membership.
• Hecht Family Foundation
The Fund's contact reports they joined as a favor to Dottie and assets are too low to merit
renewal. They can be served through the Loosemore Foundation membership.
• Burdick - Thome Foundation and Ronald Kinney Foundation
Their same legal advisor reports that assets have dropped too low to justify membership. Rob is
meeting with the advisor in March.
• Ronald Palmer Family Foundation
Another member reports the family is no longer active with their foundation and does not feel
they will continue membership.

CMF started the fiscal year with 427 members, which means we have a net loss of five
members at this time for a total of 422. The following chart summarizes the current
membership composition:

Membership Retention and Recruitment

With six weeks to go in the fiscal year, there are 53 unpaid members. This group can be
summarized as follows and is listed in the attached chart: 37 family foundations, 4 independent,
4 corporate giving, 2 corporate foundations, 4 public charities, 1 community foundation and 1
out-of-state associate. Each of these members received a letter in December. Rob Collier has
been calling each to leave a message requesting them to please consider renewing their support.
We would like each Trustee to write a personal note to two of these members providing further
encouragement. We will provide addressed and stamped envelopes with note cards at the Board
Meeting. While financially these members do not represent a huge amount of dues revenue, we
want to take every step possible to retain them as members. It should be noted that across the
country membership in regional associations continues to suffer due to the drop in assets being
experienced by endowed foundations as a result ofthe weak stock market.
The Membership Committee is planning on meeting before April 1 to discuss recruitment
strategies for this next year. However, the information in the new 131h edition of The Michigan
Foundation Directory provides an immediate opportunity. Please review the attached list of
foundations, sorted by city and assets, and choose one or two that you would be willing to have
us send membership packets to with cover notes from you. While Rob and the staff can write a
compelling letter, experience indicates it is more effective when it comes from a peer as opposed
to staff. We do realize that some of these foundations have been on past lists and efforts to
recruit them as members have been unsuccessfuL
Jeri Fischer, Membership Director, will assist you with detailed information about your
identified contacts. We would like to mail these packets with your notes by April I. Many
thanks as we work to interest more grantmakers En the value of being a CMF member.

Re:

Proposed CMF Philanthropy Advisors Network

Building on the discussion at the January Executive Committee Meeting, the following
recommendation is being presented for discussion and action.
RESOLVED that tbe C MF Philanthropy Advisors Network be created as a
two year pilot to better serve advisors (lawyers, accountant , fina ncial
planner s , bank trust office rs, etc.) by providing resources for their clients,
whom they are helping create foundation s and organized giv ing programs
that will be potential members of CMF.
The CMF Philanthropy Advisors Network (Network) will have an annual fee of$200.
Subscribers to the Network will be individual advisors - not firms- and will be provided
with the fo llowing benefits:
•

•
•

A pass code to a special section of the CMF web si te that will allow them to
download two new resources for their clients interested in starting a fo undation or
working with a community foundation.
The right to register for the Annual Conference on a first come first served basis
for l 00 places reserved for subscribers at the no nmember rate
Attendance at a special reception for Network subscribers at the Annual
Conference

Our goal will be to have at least I00 subscribers, with the priority being lawyers, by the
March 3 1,2005 . An Advisory Committee of up to 10 subscribers will be convened
annually at the Annual Conference to recommend topics for resources be ing provided to
subscribers and to assist in determining the feas ibility of making the Network an ongoing
service and expanding it beyond attorneys to other types of advisors in 2005. Staff will
work with the Finance Committee to annually review the cost implications of the
Network.
Background:
Research conducted by The Philanthropic Initiative (TPI ) and CMF in 1995 and validated
by surveys conducted by The C hro nicle of Philanthrop y has confirmed that advisors,
especially attorneys, are looking for resources that: (1) he lp them feel more comfortable

�CMF Philanthropy Advisors Network
Page 2

in talking about philanthropy with their clients; {2) they can give to clients about
philanthropic options.
CMF is working with ICLE (Institute for Conti nuing Legal Education) and the Trusts and
Estates Section of the Michigan Bar to address the first need thro ugh the following
activities we hope to have underway by April I , 2003.
•
•
•
•
•

Sample documents credited to CMF will be submitted to for ICLE's Sample
Documents website.
ICLE will agree to co-publish or at a minimum promote CMF 's Establishing A

Charilable Foundalion in Michigan
CMF will provide content on philanthropy resources and options for the spring
issue of the Section's Jo urnal
CMF wi II co-sponsor a speaker on philanthropy at the Section's Annual
Conferences in Traverse City and Troy
CMF will write an annual pamphlet on philanlhro py for the Section's pamphlet
series

The proposed Network described above will respond to the second need - providing
advisors with resources to give to their clients. For example, advisors would like to have
examples to share with clients of families that have created foundations or set up donor
advised funds at community foundations. CMF could pre pare examples on both
individuals and families that subscribers to the Network would be able to download from
the CMF website by using a pass code. Another example is resources to help clients
e ngage their adult children in the process of creating the family foundation.
We believe that providing subscr ibers with two resources annually plus a special
reception at the Annual Conference are reasonable benefits for the proposed fee of$200.
Those subscri bers attending the A nnua l Conference (up to I00) would be informed or the
non-solic itation policy that CMF has had in effect for every Annual Confe rence.
This proposal is not considered a membership in CMF but offers a potential new revenue
source. lt was encouraged by Henry G rix, incoming Chair of the Trusts and Estates
Section of the State Bar, at a meeting Susan Howbert and 1 had with him in November.

Memo to:

David Campbell, Chainnan, and Members ofthe Board ofTrustees

From:

Rob Collier, President

Re:

Presentation of 2003-04 Plan of Work and Budget

cc:

Vicki Rosenberg, Chief Operating Officer
David Lindberg, Vice President Finance &amp; Administration

As presented to the Executive Committee last month, on behalf of the staff and management team, I
am pleased to present the proposed Plan of Work and Budget for the fiscal year starting April 1,
2003. We look fotward to a productive discussion on these items at the February Board Meeting.
Introduction

This memo outlines priorities for the new fiscal year and our progress in relationship to the eight
metrics of the Strategic Plan. Vicki Rosenberg will review the next document which is the Strategic
Plan Update that highlights both accomplishments in the first nine months of this year and new

activities proposed for the 2003 Plan of Work. The 2003 Plan of Work document is also included as
a reference tool. Dave Lindberg will review the 2003 Budget, which includes the three primary
sections: member services, endowments and special projects.
Priorities

On April 1, 2003 CMF begins the second year of work based on the Strategic Plan. Our staff
planning for the new fiscal year began with a review of changes to our operating environment and
the implications of those changes on assumptions that influenced the Strategic Plan. Key factors
identified are:
•
•
•

The continuing impact of the bear economy on both members and CMF endowed assets
The increased scrutiny of the foundation sector by policy makers and the media
The growing competition in the philanthropic infrastructure at a time of diminished resources
and support from national infrastructure funders

In response to these factors and our progress to date on this year's Plan of Work in implementing the
Strategic Plan, the following five strategic priorities are offered for the new fiscal year.
1. Member Retention
With less than 45 days to go in the fiscal year, we have 62 members that have not paid their dues.
While we have taken a number of steps to get these members to renew, it has become apparent that
we will not be successful this year in completing the first metric of the Strategic Plan - 95%

�2003-04 Plan of Work and Budget
February II , 2003
Page 2

membership retention. The economy is a challenge, and we need to ask for help from the Board and
satisfied members in communicating with their peers to reinforce the value of membership. We are
exploring a number of strategies that we plan on discussing with the membership committee, which
we hope to convene before April 1.
2. Membership Recruitment
We are pleased that 14 new members have joined this year. While this is an important
accomplishment, we do not anticipate meeting the second metric of the Strategic Plan - 35 new
members per year. In January we mailed 45 membership infommtion packets to new foundations.
Our marketing to potential members will take on added intensity in the new fiscal year. An
important discussion item for the Executive Committee will be the proposed Philanthropy Advisors
Network - a new way of marketing CMF through the gatekeepers to those creating new foundations
-the advisors to the wealthy. In addition, we will be working with the Membership Committee on
the strategy of a family foundations subcommittee to help better address this growing group of
foundations in Michigan.
3. Coordinated Marketing of Educational Opportunities
With increased scrutiny of the philanthropic sector by policy makers and media, it seems vital that
we stress best practices in our educational offerings. We can best do this by focusing on the core
competencies of governance, finance, administration, grantmaking and communication - a priority
of the Strategic Plan. These offerings must include a targeted marketing effort to trustees. Vicki
Rosenberg is leading our internal educational team in addressing this priority.
4. A Helpful Regulatory Environment for Philanthropy
Our State government has just experienced the largest turnover in 40 years due to term limits. While
we have a good relationship with the new Governor and the leadership in the Senate is very
supportive, the House of Representatives represents a challenge. The Bi-partisan Philanthropy
Caucus will be a new tool to help address this challenge. In January we conducted the first annual
survey to detennine members anticipated grantmaking for the next year. In this survey we ask them
for the names of legislators they are willing to talk with about philanthropy. In addition, our efforts
in Washington will focus on mitigating efforts to add onerous reporting requirements for corporate
grantmakers, and getting the excise tax on private foundations simplified to one percent.
5. Strengthening our Internal Infrastructure
The three-year Board approved technology plan w ith the firm ITP is well underway and will
continue to be a high priority in the new fiscal year. We are excited about having the new web site
ready to launch on April I. Other key activities planned in this area include further staff training on
program management and diversity, and a proposed Board self-assessment process with
Board Source for the June meeting. Whether it be technology or staff development, the end result
has to be increased services for members that strengthen the value of membership.

Strategic Plan Metrics

CMF's success in achieving the objectives of the Strategic Plan will be measured by eight metrics
that we intend to achieve by March 31, 2005. Staff reviews progress on these metrics on a quarterly
basis. The initial two metric indicators for the Strategic Plan related to membership have been
discussed above. This progress report reviews efforts in the past nine months on the remaining six
metrics.
To have 95% of the membership rate CMF membership as valuable.
The Strategic Plan requires a biennial member satisfaction survey. The next survey wi ll take place
in 2003. Staff is currently reviewing different survey instruments and has requested funds for this
activity in the proposed budget.
To help create 70 new foundations, corporate giving programs, or community funds.
In the first nine months of this year, staff has prov ided assistance to 18 individuals, families, their
advisors and companies on establishing foundations, corporate giving programs or donor advised
funds at community foundations. In 2003, we will contact each to detennine whether or not they
have completed the steps in creating their formal giving programs.
To develop quantitative data about philanthropy's impact in Michigan.
Activity begins this winter with a Community Foundations Task Force to help CMF develop a
statewide database on community foundation activity. A key test of this database will be its ability
to provide data useful to both individual community foundations and CMF in its work with policy
makers and the media on the impact of community foundations. This database will hopefully offer a
template for collecting effectiveness data on the other key constituent groups.
To have 60% of members participate in CMF networking and education programs.
Staff is now tracking member participation through our association database. At present 46% of
CMF's members are participating in education and networking programs. To increase participation
in educational offerings, we will be increasing the number of teleconferences and web based
programs. We feel that more trustees will participate if they can do it from their office or home and
not have to travel. This service will also allow us to serve more Trustees living out of state.
To have 40% of members connected to state public officials.
Our January 2003 member survey will begin to provide quantitative data on this metric. This will be
a priority for the first six months of2003 as we d!etermine existing relationships and key state
legislators that need to be matched with CMF members.
To leverage $1 for every $1 committed by members to a public private partnership administered by
CMF.
We are tracking progress on this metric for the following three partnerships and are pleased with
these early results.
•

11 members have contributed $1.475 million to the Michigan IDA Partnership to match the
$3.1 million from the State. In addition, a number of members have contributed more than
$250,000 directly to the Regional Coordinating Organizations and local program sites for
IDA matches.

�2003-04 Plan of Work and Budget
February II , 2003
Page 4

•

21 community foundations have partnered with local Continuum of Care Committees to raise
$274,398 to match $274,398 from the Michigan State Housing Development Authority
(MSHDA) for Emergency Homelessness Prevention Funds and Summit Meetings.

•

The evaluator for the Tobacco Settlement Partnership is now tracking additional local
leverage generated by the 65 participating community foundations for the endowed Healthy
Youth and Healthy Senior Funds. While endowment building is challenging due to the weak
economy, we expect this number to grow over time.

Conclusion

The five priorities for the new fiscal year and the progress on the metric indicators for the Strategic
Plan reviewed above present a framework for introducing the next document - the Strategic Plan
Update prepared by Vicki Rosenberg. The purpose of this Update is to review the objectives from
the Strategic Plan under each of the six purposes while highlighting both accomplishments to date
and activities for 2003 from the new Plan of Work. The bolded text signifies new activities.

Page 3

Upon motion duly made, supported and unanimously approved, it was RESOLVED
that the minutes of the Board of Trustees Meeting of June 14, 2002 be approved as
presented.

Before approving the minutes of the September 9, 2002 Executive Committee Meeting,
Mr. Campbell asked Mr. Lindberg to review the new partnership with the Small Business
Association of Michigan that will provide access to health insurance and other benefits to
small staffed foundations. Mr. Campbell then discussed the decision by the Executive
Committee to delay the scheduled dues increase from 2003 to 2004 in light of the
continued decline in the U.S. Stock market, which is causing many foundations and
corporate giving programs to cut back their grantmaking and administrative budgets. A
dues increase for 2004 will be covered in Mr. Collier's presentation at the Annual
Members Meeting as part of the Annual Conference. Mr. Collier then shared the
fundraising strategy for the three-year Technology Plan with leadership grants requested
from the Kresge, Mott and Kellogg Foundations totaling $450,000. Support will be
sought from the other top seven foundations in the state for the balance of $48,000 to
complete the three-year budget of $498,000.

Re:

CMF Principles and Practices

As reviewed at the Executive Committee Meeting in January, we are requesting discussion and
action on the following recommendation.
RESOLVED that a Committee be formed to review the CMF Principles and
Practices adopted in 1997 with recommendations for changes to be presented to the
Board of Trustees at its fall 2003 Meeting. Further, the Committee shall work with
the Membership Committee to present a recommendation on the value of making
the Principles and Practices a condition of membership in CMF.
In addition, we hope that the recommendations of the Committee and whatever action is taken by
the Board can be shared at the Annual Members Meeting that follows the fall Board Meeting.
Background
Attached are a copy of the CMF Principles and Practices adopted in 1997 and a list of the
Committee that oversaw their development. Also attached is a copy of the Council on
Foundations (COF) Principles and Practices for Effective Grantmaking adopted last June.
It is interesting to note how COF has addressed the issues of accountability and diversity in this
updated version.
COF has made subscribing to these Principles and Practices a condition of membership. CMF
has not taken this step. In light of the increased scrutiny being placed on philanthropy by
policymakers and the media, the Executive Committee feels it is time to review and update
CMF's Principles and Practices and to discuss the issue of whether or not they should be a
condition of membership. While we do not want to give foundations and corporate giving
programs a reason to not join CMF, it is important to take a clear stand on these principles and
practices.
Finally, we are also enclosing for your review a copy of Recent Reforms in Corporate
Governance by Janne Gallagher, Deputy General Counsel for COF. We look forward to
discussing these issues with you.

Re:

Principles and Practices Discussion

Last June the Board of Directors of the Council on Foundations (COF) adopted Principles
and Practices for Effective Grantmaking, a copy of which is enclosed. CMF adopted our
Principles and Practices in 1997, a copy of which is also enclosed. Is it time to revisit
and update our Principles and Practices.
Given the regulatory environment for philanthropy and the nonprofit sector, should we
consider making them a requirement of membership? COF does make it a condition of
membership, as does the Council of Minnesota Foundations. Finally, I am also enclosing
a copy of Recent Reforms in Corporate Governance by Janne Gallagher, Deputy General
Counsel for COF. I look forward to your counsel on making this a substantive discussion
at the February Board Meeting.

Council of Michigan Foundations
Principles &amp; Practices
Michigan is blessed with a tradition of philanthropic giving. This is demonstrated in part by an
increasing number of foundations and corporate giving programs that are vital partners with the
public. private and nonprofit sectors in strengthening the quality of life for a ll residents.
Members of the Council ofMichigan Foundations (CMF) have requested information and
guidance on matters to consider when assessing lhc operational effectiveness of their foundation
or corporate giving program. Likewise, individuals considering the formation of a private or
community foundation or corporate giving program (hereafter referred to as
grantmakers/grantmaking organization), have asked for a similar checklist of guidelines to
consider. With this in mind, the CMF Board of Trustees has adopted the following ten Principles
that are highlighted in bold.
The CMF Board recognizes that there are many different approaches to implementation of each
principle. Therefore, following each principle are examples of practices that have proven to be
beneficial to one or more Michigan grantmakers in achieving the principle. While mnny of these
practices are required by law, a number are unique to specific types of grantmakers. In the latter
category, it is intended that grantmakers choose among the practices that best suit their
operational requirements. lntended to be instructional, these practices are updated annually in
order to share what works well for grantmakers. Other examples of practices and materials to
implement each principle are available from the CMF office. Additional ideas are always
welcome.

I. Honor donor intent by respecting the basic purposes and expectations as set forth by tbe
donor(s) in documents or other forms of communication creating the grantmaking
organiz~ltion.

'--

•

Have donor(s) talk about their interests and expectations with the board, ideally videotaping
the meeting for future reference and generations. Encourage donor(s) to be as clear as
possible about their purpose in creating the grantmaking organization.

•

Make certain that copies of the creating documents and any other written correspondence are
available in a manual for each board member.

•

Request that each board member reread the organizing documents and any other purpose
statements, at least once a year.

�Principles &amp; Practices
Page 2
•

Reiterate the donor's intent in any annual report or other foundation publications.

•

If our changing society makes follo~ring the donor's specific instructions impractical, find
related alternati ve strategies ofgran tmaking that reasonably honor the donor·s intent.

2. Have an identifiable d ecision -ma king body r espons ible for determining and revisiting
periodically the policies that defin e the p r ogram interests a nd obj ectives to be served .
•

In most cases, the founder establishes the fi rst board. In selecting board members,
qualifications to consider may include:
-agreeability with the Stated Purposes of the Foundation/Donor,
-willingness to participate actively,
-policy. programmatic and fiscal experience,
-commitment to the integrity of the grantmaking process,
-reputation for fairness and equality,
-philosophy, gender, race, ethnicity and socio-economic status, and
-will ingness to become informed.

•

Orient new board members to thei r responsibilities by sharing written materials including the
organizational documents, any written correspondence from the founder and individual
meetings with other board members and staf[

•

Establish a plan and process for the periodic review of board member per formance as a body
and individuall y.

•

If compensation is provided. consider the appropriateness of fees in relation to board member
responsibi lities and the time commitment in board service.

3. Be accounta ble to the law and to the responsibilities of being a fidu ciary a nd of tax
exemption.
•

Board members must be familiar with all federal and state legal requirements including such
subjects as the private foundation pay-out, excise tax and self-dealing laws, annual filing of
990 P F and 990, as well as state requirements.

•

Consider lhe merit of an annual independent a udit. Most grantmakers of any size have an
independent audit.

•

Make certain that sufficient administrative funding is maintained to assure that the
grantmaker can carry out its mission effectively. Expenses should not be excessive or
disproportionate to the amounts spent directly for grants and technical assistance to grantees.
Review salary and expense surveys compiled by grantmaker associations.

•

Develop investment objectives and asset allocation policies to help insure appropriate
oversight of investment performance.

4. Adhere to the highest standards of ethical behavior.
•

Establish processes to ensure that personal interests of board members and staff do not
conflict with grantmaker·s mission and purpose.

•

Establish a conflict of interest policy. Such a policy may include:
-Procedure to disclose organizational afmiations with grantees, potential grantees or
other constituents or vendors with whom the organization does business,
-Procedures for decision-making when a board member or employee has a real or
perceived conflict of interest,
-Policy on acceptance of fees or entertainment from a grantee or a potential grantee.

5. Review a nd eva lua te periodically the mission, policies, grantmaking priorities and
practices.
•

Review on an annual basis governing principles and policies. Depending on the number and
scope. such a review may be established on a rotating basis for a certain month of each year.

•

Some grantmakers conduct their own review internally, others enlist outside help to conduct
an annual review. Others use grantees and ouher representatives of the community to help
assess current needs and problems.

�Principles &amp; Practices
Page 4

6. Be accessible in r esponding clearly and promptly to requests fo r informa tion and grant
applications.
•

Publish an address and the name of an individual to contact for information. Grantmakers
that maintain offices, if feasible. should also publish a phone number, office location and
office hours.

•

Make information available to at least one publisher of a foundation directory, and ideally all,
in order that correct information regarding a grantmaker's purposes and priorities may be
available to the public.

•

Make information available to the Foundation Center and CMF, in order that correct
information regarding a grantmaker's purposes and priorities may be published in directories
available to the Public.

7. Deal respectfully with applicants, grantees and donors to help a ddress shared goals.
•

Respond in a timely manner to all requests.

•

Be clear about any reponing requirements and the nature of any monitoring that will take
place. Some grant makers include a list of standard requirements in the grant award letter.

8. Ma ke readily available basic information about fundin g priorities, application
requirements, a nd gran tmaking through publishing and distributing periodic
communication tools such as an annual r eport.
•

The format, detai l and dissemination strategies of such publications or materials need to be
appropriate to the size and complexity of the grantmaker's program and to the needs of its
prospective grant applicants.

•

As appropriate, the following administrative information about each grantmaking
organization should be included:
•
•
•
•

name of board members,
names and titles of officers.
listing of s taff.
and financial information, including total income. expenditures, and a balance sheet.

mission and goals.
program interests, funding priorities and any restrictions on what is supported,
geographic Iimitations, if any,
preferred format for applications,
application deadlines,
statements of when and how requests will be acknowledged.
an estimate of the time needed for a decision,
a list of grants made in the previous year,
policies and practices related to muJti-year funding, and
average size and range of grants made.

\\'hen a policy or procedure changes significantly, those affected, including grant applicants,
should be advised within a reasonable period of time.

9. Draw on the full range of human talents available for boa rd service, sta ff, and
consultants.
•

Some grantmakers have established a diversity policy to help them in considering how to
obtain the best qualified individual for each task.

•

Some grantmakers consider the demographics of their geographic area served when
nominating board members and selecting staff

10. Learn by networking with other grantmakers and by participating in organizations,
like CMF, that support the field of philanthropy.
•

Many grantmakers regularly meet to exchange ideas. to collaborate on a grant project or to
hear from informed speakers.

•

Consider joining groups like your regional association of grantmakers (CMF). Council on
Foundations, Independent Sector, Philanthropy Roundtable, National Network of
Granlmakers, and/or an affinity group.

After lwo years or thorough rev~aw. the Council on Foundations' Board of Directors has
completed Its reVISion of the Cllunors Recommended Statement on Pnnciples and Pradioes for
Effect•ve Grantmakmg Th•s reVISIOn marks the first change 1n the statement s1nce 1ts adopt1on In
1980
The Pnnoptes and Pracbces statement 1s an Important pnonty of membership 1n the Clluncil on
Founda~ons, s•nce Council members subsa1be 1o these pnnoples as a COndition of their
membership. The statement sets forth well-recogniZed Ideals for good prachoe that each member
supports and '' worlung to achieve

An early draft of this revision was mailed to Councll members In February 2002 to solicit
comments and suggestions. The draft wos featured at Council conferences and reviewed by
many Council comm•ttees. Aller close review of the many suggestions provided by members. the
board of d1rectors approved the final reVIsion on June 25. 2002

Members of the Council on Foundations subscnbe to the following
pnnctples and practices
Preamble. Foundations and corporate grvmg programs reflect
philanthropiC impulses to promote the publ1c good We recogniZe the
wrde dtversrty of philanthroprc goals. We also stnve to respect donors'
chantable mtentions expressed 1n organtzallonal charters and core
documents as we apply our philanthropic resources to contemporary
socral condrtrons. We attend to the future through prudent stewardship of
financtal and other resources and we recognize that accountability calls
for openness, responsiveness, fairness a nd trust In ShOJI, we hold
ourselves responsible to those who created us, those wrth whom we
currently interact and those who may look to us tn the future.

Clear Goals and Procedures
Clarity of Purpose. We establish policies and procedures that define our
program mterests and our fundamental objectives
Governing Body. An idenbfiable board, commrttee or other deCISIOnmaking body is responsible for establishing and rmplementrng our
pohc1es and procedures and revtewing and revrsrng them on a regular
baSIS
Grantmaking Procedures. We establish and follow clear processes for
recervrng, reviewing and acttng on grant appllcattons that are consrstent
wrth our pollaes and purposes We communrcate openly wtth
grantseekers about our grantmaking policres and procedures
We make readily available a brief written statement about policies,
program mterests, grantmaking practices, geographic and policy
restrictions and preferred ways of receiving applications. It is important
that grantseekers whose proposals fall outsrde our interests are notified
rn a timely manner and that those whose proposals are strll under
consrderatJon are informed of the steps and timrng that will be taken 1n
reaching the final decisron.
Informing the Public. All forms required by government are completed
accurately and filed in a timely manner. In addttion, we inform the public
about our actrvitres through various means such as publication of periodic
reports (including annual reports, newsletters and reports to national and

�l ouncil on J· oundations

local orgamzations that publish information on grantmaking) and through
electronrc and other communications channels

Legal Knowledge
Comply1ng with the law is essential and we recogmze that Inadvertent
v1olattons can occur if the basic legal rules are not understood We
provide for adequate trainmg and ongoing legal advice to ensure that our
governing board and staff are well Informed

Accountability
Ethical Behavior. Accountability extends beyond the requirements of the
law. We establish and carry out policies that recognize multiple
obligations for accountability: to the charter provisions by which our
donors defined basic expectations, to the chantable institutions we serve,
to the general public and to appropriate national and local governmental
agenc1es
Self-Evaluation. We regularly review our program interests and
operating policies. the composition of our boards and staffs and the
overall effectiveness of our grantmaking.
Conflic ts of Interest. Beyond the legal requirements that forbid staff,
board members and thelf fam1hes from profiting financially from any
ph1lanthrop1c grant or actiVIty, we we1gh carefully all Circumstances m
wh1ch there exists the possibility or appearance of conflict of Interest. Our
policies require staff and board members to disclose to their governing
bod1es the nature of any personal or family affiliation or involvement with
any orgamzat1on for which a grant is considered, even though such
affiliation may not give nse to any financial or other conflict of Interest

Addressing Change
We are alert and responsive to the changing conditions in society and to
the evolving needs of grantseeking organizations. In responding to new
challenges, we use the knowledge, experience and insight of other
individuals and groups to complement the guidance of those persons,
families or corporations from wh1ch our funds onginally came.

Diversity
We affirm and value human diversity in its many forms. We seek diversity
to ensure that a range of perspectives, op1n1ons and experiences is
recogmzed and acted upon to enhance our ab1hty to contribute to the
common good in our chang1ng society. We reflect this diversity in multiple
ways, such as through our grantmaking, through membership on our
boards committees. staffs and advisors, and through our business
pract1ces

Constructive Relationships
Grantseekers. The relationship between grantmaker and grantseeker IS
based on mutual respect, candor and understandmg. We strive to ensure
that each invests the necessary time and attent1on to define clearly the
purposes of the grant, the expectations as to reports related to financial
and other matters and the provisions for evaluating and publicizing
results. Beyond providing financial support, many grantmakers offer
guidance to grantseekers such as assistance In refining objectives,
monitoring performance, evaluating outcomes, strengthening board

Recent Reforms in Corporate Governance
Should Foundations C hange Too'?
Janne G. Gallagher
Deputy General Counsel
October 10, 2002

1

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of2002 makes sweeping changes in the governance of public
companies, including requirements with respect to the independence of auditors, the role of
the audit committee, minimum standards for directors to be considered independent, and a
host of other law c hanges designed to protect investors and the public. By its terms
Sarbanes-Oxley appHes only to public companies- businesses that issue publicly-traded
stock. However, although Sarbanes-Oxley does not apply to them, some charities are asking
whether they should adopt similar rules voluntarily to bolster public confidence in their
financial integrity.
The Coalition for Nonprofit Health Care ("CNHC"), an umbrella organization for nonprofit
hospitals, believes that it is only a matter of time until some of these corporate reforms are
applied to nonprofit organizations. A July report by the coalition2 cites statements by several
state assistant attorneys general that their nonprofit oversight wi ll include corporate
governance. ln addition, the IRS has just announced that it is considering adding a series of
questions to Fonn 990 addressing accounting practices and the veracity of information
provided to the public. Possible questions include:
o

Whether the organization has a confljct of interest policy

o

Whether the organization has an independent audit committee

The IRS also is asking whether there should be additional disclosure, beyond the
considerable detail a lready required, for transactions between the organization and its
substantial contributors, officers, directors, trustees, and key employees.
The balance of this memorandum is a list and brief discussion of Sarbanes-Ox ley reforms
that could be adopted voluntarily by charitable nonprofit organizations. Not all of these

�reforms will be appropriate for all charities. However, as the current '·gold standard" for
corporate responsibility, charity executives and boards would be well-advised to consider
whether some reforms are appropriate for voluntary adoption. Altached at the end of this
memorandum are the nine steps that the Coalition for Nonprofit Health Care has
recommended its members take voluntarily.

Auditor Committees and Outside Auditors
Audit Committees
The Sarbanes-Oxley reforms substantially strengthen the independence of corporate audit
comm ittees. Measures that charitable nonprofits could adopt voluntarily include:
•

Establishing an audit committee if the organization does not already have one;

•

Requiring that audit committee members be independent. That is, members of the
audit committee could not be employed by the charity, or any organization affiliated
with the charity, and could not accept compensation from U1e charity for providing
services other than as a board member;

•

Making the audit committee directly responsible for hiring, compensating, and
overseeing the work of the foundation's outside auditor;

•

Disclosing whether the audit committee has at least one member who is a financial
expert; and

•

Providing for "whistleblower" access to the committee.

Obtaining Consulting or Other Services from a C ha rity's Outside Auditor
Sarbanes-Oxley bars companies from purchasing the following services from the company's
outside auditor:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•

Bookkeeping and other services related to ilie accounting records or financial
statements;
Design and implementation of financial systems;
Appraisal or valuation services, fairness opinions, and contribution-in-kind reports;
Actuarial services;
Internal audit outsourcing services;
Management functions or human resources;
Broker or dealer, investment adviser, or investment banking services; and
Legal services and expert services unrelated to the audit.

The legislation autl1orizes the SEC to add to this list and also provides that the company's
audit committee must approve, in advance, the provision of any oilier non-audit services by
the company's outside auditor. Charities could consider whether they should voluntarily
refrain from purchasing similar services from their outside auditor.

�Audit Partner Rotation
Sarbanes-Oxley requires the outside auditor to designate a new lead aud it partner and a new
audit review partner at least every five years. Charities could weigh the desirability of a
similar rotation against the increased audit cost that may result.
Code of E thics for Senior Financial Officers
Sarbanes-Ox Icy requires companies to disclose whether or not they have adopted a code of
ethics for their seruor financial officials that is applicable to its principal financial officer, its
comptroller, and its principal accounting officers (or persons performing similar functions).
If the company has not adopted such a code, it must explain why it has not. The code of
ethics is to include those standards reasonably necessary to promote:
•
•
•

Honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent
conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;
Full, fair, accurate timely, and understandable disclosures in the company's periodic
reports; and
Compliance with applicable governmental rules and regulations.

Charities could weigh whether to adopt a s imilar code of ethics for their principal financial
officers.
Disclosures and Certifications

Financial Statement Certification
Sarbanes-Oxley requires a company's CEO and its CFO to sign quarterly and annual reports
required to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Conunission. The signature of the two
officers attests that:
•

The officer has reviewed the report;

•

To the officer's knowledge, the report does not contain any untrue statements or omit
any material facts;

•

To the officer's knowledge, all financial information fairly represents the company's
financial condition for the period covered by the report;

•

The officers have designed and arc maintaining internal controls that ensure that
marerial information about the company and its consol idated subsidiaries is made
known to the officers. rn addition, the officers must:

•

o

Evaluate the effectiveness of the internal contro ls withjn 90 days of the date
lhe report is filed; and

o

Disclose in the report their conclusions about the controls' effectiveness;

The officers have disclosed to the company's auditors and to its audit committee:

3

�o

All significant deficiencies in the design or operation of internal controls that
could adversely affect the company's ability to process and report financial
data, including the identification to the auditors of any material weaknesses in
the internal controls; and

o

Any fraud, whetl1er or not material, on the part of management or other
employees with a significant role in the internal audit process.

The charity equivalent would be for ilie CEO or CFO to s ign the charity's Form 990 or Fon11
990-PF (the IRS pennits any officer to sign these documents). Charities also could consider
adopting internal control systems similar to those required for public companies and issuing
an annual statement evaluating the effectiveness of those controls.
Related P a r ty a nd Off-books Rela tionships
Sarbanes-Oxley requires companies to disclose all material transactions not included in the
company's balance sheet and all relationships wilh unconsolidated entities or other persons
that may materially affect the company's current or future financial condition, Liquidity,
capital resources, and so forth. Complex corporate and financial structures a re far tess
prevalent among cbarities;3 however, those charities that do have transactions or relationships
that fall within the spirit of this rule may want to consider disclosures analogous to those
required of regulated companies.

Co mpensation I ssues
Loans to Executives and Board Mem bers
Sarbanes-Oxley prohibits personal loans or other extensions of credit to company directors or
executive officers. Existing loans are grandfathered. Adopting a blanket rule like this
voluntarily is likely to be controversial since some charities include mortgage loans, loan
guarantees, or similar extensions of credit as part of a package to induce executives to
relocate and s uch loans are legally permissible as long as the economic bene fit of any belowmarket loan, when added to the individual's other compensation, does not render the total
unreasonable. Nonetheless, Ole inclusion of this provision in Sarbanes-Oxlcy suggests that
charities may want to revisit their policies on loans to executives and consider whether other
fom1s of compensation may be more appropriate or less controversial.
Executive Co mpensation
Sarbanes-Oxley did not include provisions addressing the disclosure of executive
compensation. However, President Bush has challenged CEOs to describe in plain English
in tlleir annual reports every detail of their compensation packages and to explain how that
package is in the best interests of the company's shareholders. Executive compensation must

They are not unknown, however. The Arizona Baptist Foundation. an Arizona charity, with the assistance of
its outside auditor, Arthur Anderson, made use of some 60 subsidiary companies to hide its lack of assets from
investors. Following Arizona Baptist's collapse, Arthur Andersen agreed to a $217 million settlement.

�be reported annually to the SEC, but the President believes that the inforn1ation is frequently
buried in proxy statements and infrequently reviewed by shareholders. Charity CEO
compensation is disclosed in Form 990 or Form 990-PF. Charities could consider whether to
adopt additional disclosures in the spirit of the President's challenge to business executives.

Coalition for Nonprofit H ealth Care Recommended
Action Steps for Nonprofit Health Care Organizations
A July 18, 2002 White Paper prepared by the Coalition includes the following nine steps that
nonprofit health care organizations can take immediately, in anticipation of the adoption of
formal reforms applicable to nonprofit organizations generally:
•

Adopt internal accounting controls and accounting practices that will facilitate the
ability ofCEOs and CFOs to personally vouch for the organization's financial
statements;

•

Understand and be prepared to disclose or defend any related party transactions or
off-balance sheet transactions engaged in by the organization;

•

Assess the independence of directors, outside auditors, and outside advisors carefully
and, if necessary, take measures to reduce conflicts of interest;

•

Evaluate the use of independent audit firms for other services;

•

Establish or assess the independence of dedicated audit committees, nominating
cornn1ittees, and compensation committees;

•

Adopt clear record-retention policies;

•

Understand and compose a detailed description of executive compensation packages,
including a clear explanation of why the packages are in the best interest of the
nonprofit health care organization;

•

Evaluate governance policies and procedures in light of the Subcommittee's report on
the Eruon board and strengthen board understanding of fiduciary duties; and

Review the financial condition, accounting practices, and fLDancial statements of for-profit
subsidiaries, and considering the extent to which the above items may affect the activities of
and disclosures made with respect to for-profit subsidiaries.

Dear Mr. Thompson,

RoOorl P Aronson
GoardJan lrldu$rt!$ Corporalioo

The establishment of the Thompson-McCully Foundation by you and
your wife in 1999 was greeted with tremendous enthusiasm by the
nonprofit organizations in metropolitan Detroit. It was the first major
new foundation to be established since the 1980s and immediately
became an important part of the philanthropic assets of this region. The
program priorities and the scale of assets positioned the foundation to
make a real difference in the charitable needs of our area, particularly
in the lives of poor people.

You hired a top-quality staff. John Ziraldo and Tonya Allen have been
visible in the community and have developed close relationships with
the nonprofit organizations working in the foundation's fields of
interest. These relationships have often allowed John and Tonya to
encourage organizations to new levels of excellence in serving people
in need.
It is with surprise, then, that we have learned from nonprofit
organizations of the sudden change in focus of the Thompson-McCully
Foundation. Of even greater concern is bearing from the leaders of
nonprofit organizations who believed they had a finn multi-year
funding commitment from the foundation, but have been notified that
future payments on existing grants are being cancelled.
These notifications have stated that lhe actions are being taken not
because of any problems with the way the projects are being carried out
by the grantees, but because of the change in focus of the foundation's
grants program. We assume that your legaJ counsel has confirmed that
the foundation has no legal responsibility for damages to these
grantees. However, we would urge you to reconsider these actions on
the basis of what is fair to these groups and the people who are served
by them.

�Mr. Robert M. Thompson
January 17, 2003
Page 2 of2

We (and others who work with nonprofits in our region) have begun
hearing from some of the foundation's grantees that are canceling
programs that serve people who are hungry, in need of shelter and
without work. Other grantees are trying to preserve the work the
foundation has supported, but are struggling to find donors who will
pick up the funding that the foundation has abruptly cancelled.
As you know, nonprofits, and especially human service organizations,
are facing some of the toughest challenges in thei.r history due to our
weak economy. They are being overwhelmed with requests for help
and other donors are not in a position to increase their support.
Mr. Thompson, we are not suggesting that you should change from the
new direction you have chosen for the foundation. We are urging you,
however, to re-consider the cancellation of prom ised payments on
grants the foundation has already approved.
The Council of Michigan Foundations is committed Lo promoting
effective philanthropy in Michigan. P lease call on us if you feel we can
be helpful in managing this change in the foundation's focus in a way
that will not be harmful to the nonprofit organizations with which you
have current commitments.
S incere ly,

Community Foundation Update

Community Foundation Committee
The Community Foundation Committee continues to have conference calls every other month
with staff to provide guidance and oversight on a variety of important initiatives. For example,
the "Database Taskforce" is reviewing changes in the collection, storage and retrieval of
Michigan community foundation data to better analyze trends in growth, donors and grants. The
"Accountability Taskforce" is researching opportunities for community foundations to better
defme and collect meaningful outcomes and performance measures with grantees. The
"Affiliate Taskforce" is developing guidelines, best practices and potential new definitions for
lead foundation relationships with their affiliate funds.
As summer quickly approaches so does Building Foundations 2003, a multi-session learning
series to help Michigan community foundations build their marketing capacity. Offered as a tollfree conference call with a facilitated on-line presentation, participants will engage in live
dialogue with consultants and peers. Session titles include: Setting Market Strategy, Targeting
Key Audiences, Shaping Communications, and Forming Relationships.
Legislative Issues
With current Michigan state budget cuts, the Community Foundation Tobacco Settlement
Partnership's allocation has been reduced to $2 million for the current fiscal year and is
anticipated to be reduced further to $1 million folf the upcoming 2004 budget.
Community Foundation CEO Retreat
More than 50 Michigan community foundation Executive Directors attended the CMF
Community Foundation CEO Retreat March 6 &amp; 7 at Brook Lodge. Presenting at this two-day
retreat was Susan Herr, Managing Director of Accountability Initiatives for Community
Foundations of America, and former senior program officer for The Chicago Community Trust.
Ms. Herr addressed "Community Foundations and Nonprofits: Partners Facing the Challenges of
Accountability." Mark Sedway, consultant with Williams Group and past Director of
Communications with the Irvine Foundation, engaged the group in a discussion around
"Community Catalyst: How Community Foundations Can Act as Agents for Local Change."
CEO's also participated in small group discussions on important community foundation issues
such as "fund development in lean times."

Community Foundation Program Officers' Retreat

Over 40 Michigan community foundation program staff met on March 20 &amp; 21 at the Radisson
Plaza Hotel in Kalamazoo, to network and share information. Sharon Parks, Senior
Planning/Research/Communications Associate from the Michigan League for Human Services
spoke on "State Budget Cuts: Local Impact." The group also discussed such topics as "Doing
More with Less: Creating Impact in a Down Economy" and "Convening: An Important Role for
Community Foundations." The Kalamazoo Community Foundation hosted this year's retreat
and provided opportunities for site visits to grantee organizations.
Michigan Community Foundations' Ventures (MCFV)

The MCFV Board of Trustees provides oversight to several initiatives and grants. The
"Community Foundation R &amp; D Incubator" was successful in providing key product
development for the national release of marketing tools last fall at the national COF Community
Foundation conference in Atlanta. Since then, the Incubator has facilitated numerous nationwide
capacity development calls designed to add community foundations in the customization and
implementation of the marketing tools. Research and development has already begun for the
next portfolio of marketing and communication tools to be released this fall at the COF
Community Foundation conference in Baltimore, through the National Marketing Action Team
(NMAT).

Building Opportunities Together
31st Annual Conference Update
November 10-12,2003 -- Amway Grand Plaza Hotel, Grand Rapids, Michigan

The theme Building Opportunities Together has been selected for the Annual Conference. And
we are delighted that the Frey Family has accepted our invitation to be Honorary Chairs! The
Host Committee, chaired by Susan Broman from the Steelcase Foundation and Milt Rohwer
from the Frey Foundation, has had its organizational meeting. One Host Event will feature the
spectacular new DeVos Convention Center- a fun "hard hat" evening. The second event will be
a formal sit down dinner at the Amway. The Host Committee is also working on six site visits,
including the Johnson Center at Grand Valley State University.
We are grateful to the 31 member Program Committee for two productive meetings (90%
attended the May 22 meeting- 5 are CMF Tmstees), a diverse, thoughtful, and "customer
oriented" group (see Attachment One for Committee lists).

Program Design Highlights
Along with 24 concurrent and eight mini-plenary sessions, the Conference will offer:
• Our first credit granting workshop for corporate grantmakers on "Conununicating and
Branding Corporate Citizenship", the latest offering from Boston College' s Center for
Corporate Citizenship. This will be the first time Boston College will offer a workshop as
part of another organizations conference! Kudos to Susan Howbert for negotiating the
agreement!
• The 3rd annual seminar for experienced grantmakers featuring Kathryn Fulton from Global
Business Network;
• Sessions on the five core educational skill areas of grantmaking, governance, administration,
finance/ investments, communications/public policy
• Sessions on the six Public Policy Conunittee issues of early childhood, K-12 education,
health care access, land use/sprawl, TANF/Welfare Reform, and Safety Net.
• Special meetings for community foundation CEO's and Program Officers
• Three plenary sessions:
o Diversity and inclusion in philanthropy which will be developed by Program Committee
members who serve on the Leadership Committee for Diversity &amp; Inclusion.
o Foundation accountability and scmtiny featuring foundation leaders moderated by a
broadcast journalist.
o Gov. Jennifer Granholm and a panel of leaders from Michigan colleges, universities, and
research centers discussing the life-sciences and technology corridors.
• One-on-one technical assistance through the "Dr. Is In" introduced in 2002.
• Year 2 ofbreakfast roundtables on issues identified by the Program Committee.

520 full and 150 partial registrations. In addition to on-going announcements and articles in "The
Michigan Grantmaking Scene", "Memo to Members", and "E-News", CMF will promote the
conference through:
• A "Save-the-Date" postcard mailed on May 20, 2003 to 3,000+ individuals (a copy is in the
back pocket);

• A registration brochure to be mailed to approximately 4,000 individuals in mid-July;
• Our first registration discount for Board Chairs attending with their CEO;
• Special rates for daytime only attendance in response to the current economic situation.
Sponsorships &amp; Exhibitors
In 2003, CMF will offer traditional and new opportunities to sponsors and exhibitors including:

•

Sponsorship at four levels-- $15,000, $10,000, $5,000, $2,500. Within a day of sending

We hope that you will seriously consider becoming a sponsor or an exhibitor - or both - at this year's conference.
We estimate having at least 800 participants, many of whom are the key decision makers in their foundations.
Please fill out and return the attached form to Vicki Rosenberg at CMF to indicate your interest. We will be happy

Vicki Rosenberg, COO

Re:

Annual Conference Discussion Points

CMF currently has signed contracts for the Annual Conference with the Hyatt Regency Dearborn
for 2004 and the Grand Traverse Resort for 2005 . It is time to sign contracts for 2006- 08.
Therefore, we welcome your counsel on the following four discussion points.
1. Casinos
With the Tribe's purchase of the Grand Traverse Resort, we have been told that there will
likely be video slot machines in the Resort's lobby by the time we arrive in October 2005.
CMF has never taken an official position on the issue of casinos. Do we want to go forward
with the Conference at the Resort? If so, do we want to consider the Soaring Eagle Resort in
Mt. Pleasant for a future Conference?
2. Days of the Week
Until our 2000 Conference at the Grand Traverse Resort, the Annual Conference was
traditionally on a Wednesday through Friday noon format. One advantage of the Monday
through Wednesday or Sunday through Tuesday format is the ability to hold the Family
Foundations Retreat immediately before. Should we stay with this format or move back to
the Wednesday through Friday schedule?
3. Month
The 2000 Conference was held for the first time in years in early fall from the traditional
early November date. While recognizing the need to avoid the Fall C01mnunity Foundations
Conference of the Council on Foundations, should we move the Annual Conference to an
earlier fall date?
4. Adding the Grand Hotel to the Schedule.
If casinos are acceptable then the Grand Traverse Resort and Soaring Eagle are sites for the
Conference. If not, we are limited to the Renaissance Marriott, Dearborn Hyatt Regency, and
Amway Grand. With the addition of a new tower ofrooms, the Radisson Kalamazoo will be
able to again accommodate the Conference and is planned for 2006. We now know that we
can hold the Conference at the Grand despite the logistical challenges. Should we go back?
The Rotation - Draft Plan
1999 Grand Rapids - 2000 Grand Traverse - 2001 Detroit
2002 Mackinac Island - 2003 Grand Rapids - 2004 Dearborn - 2005 Grand Traverse
2006 Kalamazoo- 2007 Detroit - 2008 Grand Rapids- 2009 GT/Grand/Soaring Eagle

Foundations

Serving grantmakers. Advancing giving.

May27, 2003
To:

C. David Campbell &amp; Members of the CMF Board of Trustees

From:

S. Martin Taylor, Vice Chair-Corporate Foundations
Susan Howbert, Director, Corporate Grantmaking

Subject:

Corporate Philanthropy Report

We are pleased to highlight the following activities for corporate foundations and giving
programs:

Boston College's Center for Corporate Citizenship
Twenty-five corporate grantmakers participated in "Evaluating and Measuring Programs
and Strategies", a two day course offered by Boston College's Center for Corporate
Citizenship at G .M. University on May 14 &amp; 15, 2003. Thanks to our sponsor, General
Motors, it was possible for CMF to offer this valuable course at a significantly reduced
cost.
In the past 11 months, CMF has offered three Boston College courses to Michigan' s
corporate grantmakers: The Institute on Corporate Community Involvement, Strategic
Planning, and Evaluating and Measuring Programs and Strategies. This has provided
CMF' s corporate members the wonderful opportunity of completing the certification
process locally. We are proud to report that over 20 members of southeast Michigan ' s
corporate grantmaking community will be receiving their Certificate of Corporate
Community Relations in the m ail shortly!

Boston College Is Coming to CMF's 2003 Annual Conference
We are delighted to announce that one of Boston College's newest courses,
"Communicating and Branding Corporate Citizenship" will be offered at this year's
annual conference, allowing registrants to earn three credits from Boston College while
attending the conference. Participants will learn all aspects of building an effective
communication plan, an integral ingredient of any corporate citizenship program, and in
this world of increased transparency and pressure to communicate intemally and
externally, a necessary tool for success.
This is the first time that Boston College has offered a course as part of another
organization' s conference, and we anticipate that it will provide the value added that
corporations look for when deciding whether to attend a conference.

For those corporate grantmakers who received their Certificate as a result of the previous
courses offered in southeast Michigan, they will be able to begin work on their advance
certification, held by only 50 individuals nationally.
Boston College offers the only certification in the field, and has successfully trained over
5,000 executives from more than I ,000 major corporations, preparing them to take
leadership roles in their organizations.

Michigan Forward-May 2003 Edition
We were happy to partner again with the Michigan Chamber of Commerce on the May
edition of its magazine, Michigan Forward. The cover story features articles provided by
CMF on corporate giving. The articles include: "The Case for Matching Gifts", "Being
a Good Corporate Citizen in a Down Economy", "The Importance of Accountability,
Enhancing Charitable Giving, and Be a Knowledgeable Corporate Giver". A copy of the
magazine is in the back pocket of your board book.
