The five issue areas of focus for OFL- early childhood development, education, health care, land use and workforce development have all been addressed during this reporting period. With the decision of the Advisory Committee members to continue support for the office beyond the original commitment, a very significant portion of staff time has been dedicated to obtaining additional fi nancial support for the office through September 30, 2008 and to gamer this from other types of foundations. Six community foundations and one out-of-state foundation have made grants to the Council of Michigan Foundations for OFL. Proposals are also pending with a corporate and a family foundation. The Phase II Assessment Report on the office has been printed and Phase III Assessment has been initiated with Grand Valley State University and sample database materials for Phase III are attached to this report. However, the clerical support position for the office is again open, after an unsuccessful hire. This position will most likely remain open until after the November Election. As much of the time and energy of the executive branch and the legislature has been consumed by the impending election and partisan politics; we have dedicated less time to specific proposals for funding and concentrated our efforts during this interval on office administrative concerns, developing new relationships, research and learning, including site visits and briefings. This was done with the counsel of Dave Egner (Committee Chair) and Rob Collier and with the understanding of our Executive Office contact, Teresa Bingman, Deputy Chief of Staff for Cabinet Affairs and Management. Nonetheless, we have continued to facilitate and help coordinate four briefings and one site visit as well as increased the total amount of financial support from foundations to the state to $28 million. Our challenge, as well as opportunity as we move forward into 2007 is to make a successfu l position for this office and for the foundation community to be a strategic force post-election 2006. This will require a discussion at the Advisory Committee level that supports CMF's Public Policy Committee strategy and utilizes the staff and office as a critical tool for assisting the state in developing a strategic economic recovery plan and accompanying public policy initiatives. The following work was accomplished by the Office of Foundation Liaison during this period: �Objective #1: To increase state officials' understanding of philanthropy and to identify opportunities for partnering with state government.

Advancing giving. October 6, 2006 To: Julie Fisher Cummings, Chairperson and Members of the Board ofTmstees From: David Egner, Susan Broman and Carol Goss, Public Policy Committee Co-Chairs Vicki Rosenberg, COO, and Rachel Dunne, Public Policy Fellow Re: Public Policy Committee Report Spring & Summer Events & Meetings The seven key public policy meetings held since the May Board Meeting and listed below are incorporated in the President's Report. • Reinventing Prisoner Reentry Site Visit • Creating a Healthier Michigan Through Quality, Access, and Management Briefing • Michigan Civil Rights Initiative: Implications for Grantmakers, Women & Communities • K-12 Education Meeting • Land Use Funders Meeting • 21st Century Jobs Fund Public Policy Briefing • Early Matters Funders Group Meeting Committee Meeting- September 7, 2006 Key points of the discussion: A. Taking a position on state ballot issues. The Committee discussed expanding its role beyond building awareness and understanding among CMF members to making recommendations to the Board ofTmstees on actions it suggests be taken in response to such issues as the Civil Rights ballot initiative. This discussion resulted from a motion made to add CMF's name to the list of supporters of Michigan United. After reviewing the Board's decision for CMF not to take a position, the Committee asked staff to draft language about when it might take action and how. B. Creating an Affinity Group ofFunders on Michigan's Economy There was consensus to invite interested members to form an Affinity Group that can focus on the State 's economy. The wide differences in how foundations can and are playing a role in economic development was noted. The role of a number of foundations with think tanks, like Michigan Future, was also discussed.

Melanie B. Colaianne Allan D. Gilmour MASCO CORPORATION FOUNDATION THE GILMOUR FUND Gerald K. Smith DETROIT YOUTH FOUNDATION �HONORARY CHAIRS THE COUNCIL OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS IS PLEASED TO RECOGNIZE TED BRAUN OF SAGINAW AND MOLLY DOBSON OF ANN ARBOR AS HONORARY CHAIRS OF THE 35TH ANNUAL CONFERENCE. Ted Braun is recipient of the 2007 Mawby Award for Philanthropy. Named for Russell G. Mawby, president emeritus of the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, the award recognizes an individual who has demonstrated a lifelong commitment to encouraging private action for the public good through philanthropy. Ted 's commitment to community is evidenced in the hundreds of hours of pro bono legal work he does annually for small nonprofit agencies through the law firm of Braun, Kendrick & Finkbeiner. As president of the Harvey Randall Wickes Foundation, he is always open to listening to new ideas, giving guidance on funding options and championing operational funding for strong local agencies. Ted is an avid believer in the importance of relationship building and collaboration - shepherding the affiliation of th e Child Abuse and Neglect Council with the United for Kids Children's Assessment Center, leading an endowment campaign for Saginaw Valley State University and creating Volunteer START (students together for a responsible tomorrow). Over the years he has shared his time, treasure and talent with the Boys and Girls Club, United Way, Saginaw Commu nity Foundation, Child and Family Services, Saginaw General Hospital and many more organizations. Ted's legal expertise, business acumen and philanthropic endeavors continue to enrich the Saginaw area. Molly Dobson is recipient of the 2007 Community Foundation Award for Philanthropy that recognizes the ~hou sands of volunteers now involved in building community philanthropy though a network of 65 community oundations serving all 83 Michigan counties. With her late husband Bill, they helped found the Ann Arbor Area Comm unity Foundation. Former trustee and member of the Development Committee, Molly is now on the Fund e Future Committee - working on building the community foundation's endowment capacity with unrestricted and fi eld of interest funds. e Ann Arbor Area Community Foundation's Youth Council pr.ovided a challenge grant to Ann Arbor's teen center, e Neutral Zone that serves over 17,000 teens annually. Molly was the first donor and continues her support."Our commu nity is fortunate to have many involved citizens, but very few match Molly Dobson's affection for and edication to the Ann Arbor area," said Cheryl Elliott, president & CEO, Ann Arbor Area Community Foundation. '=or more th an 50 years, Molly has devoted time, money, energy and leadership making her one of Washtenaw ounty's most valuable assets. - ed Braun and Molly Dobson were selected by an objective peer review panel to receive these two awards esented by Governor Granholm at the Governor's Service Awards.

The Sun Sprint involved using problem solving, math and science to build a solar-powered racecar and then racing it. In the Trash Dash, students were given supplies to build a battery-operated racecar out of reusable materials. Both projects allowed students to learn more about energy transfer, aerodynamics, renewable energy applications as well as waste and resource management. Teachers were given packets to guide them in a teaching curriculum as they guide their students as they design, build and then race their creations. The most significant grant was a 3-year, $75,000 grant to the Neutral Zone (Ann Arbor's teen center) for new program at their new location. This grant was part of a larger grant (total of $150,000 over three years) made in collaboration with AAACF’s Distribution Committee. This will allow NZ to focus on new program offerings to teens in the community as well as provide time for NZ to develop a strategy for long-term program sustainability. Last year we granted $4,800 to Barry County Christian School. They used this money to purchase supplies to create a Quality baseball program. I feel that this grant had the largest impact on our community because Barry County Christian didn't have a baseball program before this grant. This cooperative project between the Monroe County Sheriff’s Department and all the fourth graders in Bedford Schools, involved the fourth graders writing letters to the senior students at the high school. The letters told the seniors how they were role models for the younger students and how important it was for them not to drink or use drugs. All the fourth grade students were taken to the high school to personally deliver their letters to the seniors. Senior students reported that it really made an impact to know how the younger kids viewed them and to see how important it was to be a good role model for the younger students. New Buffalo Foursquare Church--New Buffalo Community Youth Center. Funding for development and maintenance of recreational and healthful programs at NBCYC, so that the potential of the youth population will be maximized. The grant we made to Pregnancy Services of Greater Lansing for their SMART (Sexually Mature Aware Responsible Teens) program. Our grant helped cover the cost of employment for part-time presenters to area middle and high schools, encouraging teens to choose abstinence from pre-marital sexual activity and related behaviors. Ann Arbor Area Community Foundation Barry Community Foundation Bedford Community Foundation Berrien Community Foundation Capital Region Community Foundation �YAC 2007 Annual Survey YAC examples of high-impact and creative grantmaking: Community Foundation Grants Charlevoix County Community Foundation A grant to North Central Michigan College in support of the Native American Mentoring Program. The program will bring 30 Native American students (grades 7 - 9) to the college campus for a 5-day residential summer youth camp experience. The purpose of the camp experience is to expose the students to a college setting, mentoring in career guidance, and a renewal of their Native American culture. They gave money to a Library for a Summer Reading Program. That should impact the kids a good way by keeping them excited about reading in the summer. Clare County Community Foundation ClioYAC Community Foundation for Muskegon County Community Foundation for Northeast Michigan Community Foundation for Southeast Michigan YAC 2007 Annual Survey Report to the Field The grant with the most impact in 2007 in my opinion would be the Clio High School - High Impact Alcohol Awareness Program - Save A Life Tour. This program provided education to high school students about the risks involved in underage drinking in an interactive and innovate manner. Students participated in video game-type driving simulations as well as heard from speakers with personal or family instances of tragedy related to drinking and driving. While this grant was for $2,000 it doesn't show up in the above figures because it was made during the middle of the YAC year which falls after the end of the Foundation's fiscal year. The YAC granted $30,000 to the County of Muskegon to support the Juvenile Justice Needs Assessment portion of the Muskegon County Master Plan. This needs assessment will be linked with the Family Court Title V Juvenile Delinquency assessment to develop a comprehensive vision for meeting future juvenile justice needs in Muskegon County. As one of our YAC students said, "I think the Ready, Set, Swim! Project is the best grant we've ever given." This project is designed to teach area youth how to swim at an early age. The student said he would probably be a better swimmer if the project had been around when he was younger. (He's a pretty insightful eleventh grader.) The Youth Initiative awarded a grant to Southwest Counseling Solutions for support for a mentoring program for at-risk youth, matching 10 peer mentors with 20 youth (1 youth/1 mentor for a 6-month period of time) to provide opportunities for the mentors to offer encouragement and support. The YAC members themselves recruited and trained the peer mentors. The mentors and youth participated in in weekly activities including workshops, youth groups, game and movie nights and group outings. The YAC members felt this was an important connection because they believe that troubled youth are more likely to learn form their peers than from adults. They also identified benefits for the mentors, such as public speaking skills and developing leadership skills. �YAC 2007 Annual Survey YAC examples of high-impact and creative grantmaking: Community Foundation Grants Community Foundation of Greater Rochester Girls on the Run: We granted $5,000 to start a Girls on the Run program here in Rochester. The program teaches young girls how to reach goals and have confidence in themselves. It uses aerobic training activities building up to a 5k run at the end of the program year. Be The Change Group - Purpose to break down walls and learn to respect each other at the school level for who each student within a school system. In 2006 the Youth Advisory Committee funded the Suspending Bridges Program at the Bridge Youth Ministry Center in Zeeland Michigan. The Suspension program serves middle school students on out-of-school suspension. On the day(s) of suspension, students report to The Bridge, an after school program, for a day of tutoring, behavior management, community service, nutrition and health. This program was so successful in the Zeeland Community School District that the YAC funded another organization to replicate the model in the West Ottawa School District. The YAC awarded a grant for $3,500 for the Linden High School Start Spring Smart Project. In my opinion this was the most impactful grant as it reached the total school population of an area high school with speakers, and activities reinforcing the importance of good decision making, particularly as it relates to drug and alcohol use. The project occurs every year right before spring break which is a high risk time for youth to be involved in risky behaviors. Our YAC gave a grant of $15,000 to help build the Mulligan's Hollow Skate Park. This grant will provide fun, safe recreational activities for 10,000 skate boarders and BMX bikers each year. Community Foundation of Monroe County Community Foundation of the Holland/Zeeland Area Fenton Area Community Fund Grand Haven Area Community Foundation Coopersville Area Community Foundation Grand Rapids Community Foundation Greenville Area Community Foundation YAC 2007 Annual Survey Report to the Field NEOFORUM- helps the school and city with a program that addresses poor choices in alcohol, drugs etc. though the presence of a police office and counselor on campus to educate the students on correct behavior and to help to prevent or control some of the poorer choices. Library- Designated a youth laptop for after school usage. The YGC's greatest impact this year came not from a grant, but from the press they generated around the release of the survey results. Local media gave this survey significant coverage. Mentor a Mom program where young mothers are matched up with mentors to provide support as they learn how to be a parent. There are play dates for the mothers, children and mentors as well as educational programs. This is a program that closely aligns with one of the focus areas that was determined as a need by the youth in the community. �YAC 2007 Annual Survey YAC examples of high-impact and creative grantmaking: Community Foundation Grants Hillsdale County Community Foundation $4,916.87 was granted to the Digital Desktop Publishing Class at Hillsdale High School. These funds were used to fund costs associated with creating and distributing a series of studentcreated “What’s Your Anti-Drug” commercials. These commercials were distributed to local schools in Hillsdale County through the Channel One system, and were also aired on the local community access cable channel. Huron County Community Foundation YAC was a sponsor of the "Embrace our Earth" Day a Huron Intermediate School District event that is aimed at youth and the community at large to foster a respect and appreciation for our environment. To provide matching funds to open a library Ionia County Community Foundation Iosco County Community Foundation Jackson County Community Foundation Kalamazoo Community Foundation/Youth United Way Keweenaw Community Foundation Leelanau Township Community Foundation YAC 2007 Annual Survey Report to the Field YAC awarded a grant to a Challenge Day motivational assembly for all Iosco County students. The main focus was on understanding peers, eliminating the "clique" society of high school, bridging gaps between the popular and the not-sopopular, etc. Reviews of the assembly from other schools and from students who had attended it before were glowing. Students said they made new friends that day with kids they had sat by, but to whom they have never spoken. $5,000 was given to Project Reconnect which funded a get-away for 55 soldiers in our county returning from Iraq, along with their families. The grant the group feels has the greatest chance for impact was given to Catholic Family Services to hold classes for Pregnant and/or Parenting Teens. We feel that by teaching teens to be better parents, the cycle of teens having babies who will be teen parents can be broken. The parent, whether a teen or not, is the first teacher of every child and we want every teen who is a parent to have the skills necessary to help their children succeed. The YAC has just begun to grant after a period of inactivity. They granted to the Keweenaw Krayons at the end of the 2006/2007 school year for the Keweenaw Guerrillas program. The program aimed at involving teens and pre-teens in a community activity wherein they can feel a sense of community by helping others in a very different way. The YAC put on an event called YACapalooza. It was a community event that was held the same week-end as National Turn-Off your T.V. Week-end. There was food, music and activities for youth and adults as well. It brought together the Community and made people a lot more aware of YAC and what they are about. �YAC 2007 Annual Survey YAC examples of high-impact and creative grantmaking: Community Foundation Grants Lenawee Community Foundation Catholic Charities of Lenawee received monies to support a 12 step program for teens. The goal of the program is to provide a safe place to assist youth toward recovery from alcohol and chemical dependency, and help teens develop healthy coping skills, by sharing thoughts and feelings about their current conditions and future plans. Because of the numbers involved 2 different groups of 15 met every other week. The initial program evolved to serve only boys, because of the numbers wanting help and another grant was fulfilled in our current fiscal year to provide 2 groups one for males and one for females. This year one of our past foundation presidents wanted to recognize area youth for their volunteer efforts. She brought the idea to the YACs and challenged them to come up with a plan to achieve her vision. The YACs developed the Young Philanthropist Award which recognizes young volunteer for their commitment to community service. The recipient receives a scholarship and a donation is made to the charity of their choice in their name. They awarded $5000 to the Moosewood Nature Center to provide outdoor classroom activities to over $1500 pre-K to HS students in Marquette County. An indirect benefit is the exposure Moosewood received. The River Safety Project here in Big Rapids. The YAC students asked the committee to come in for a presentation. They presented a grant request and the group approved. The funds were used to purchase a water safety sign along the river with the MCYAC logo. The Midland County Juvenile Care Center was given a grant that funded 4-eight week sessions providing a series of critical life skills in a safe, controlled environment involving the Midland Community Center's rock climbing wall. The participants started by learning physical and mental aspects of climbing safety, and the importance of trust and responsibility. Each week they learned skills like overcoming fear, trusting others, communicating effectively...etc. This project helped change the lives of kids in need and get them thinking about how they can change their lives for the better. M&M Area Community Foundation Marquette Community Foundation Mecosta County Community Foundation Midland Area Community Foundation The Living Hope Assembly of God in Beaverton was granted $6040. The purpose of this grant was to fund a Family Park that is free of drugs and alcohol and encouraging family unity. Its central location would be accessible to economically challenged families. YAC 2007 Annual Survey Report to the Field �YAC 2007 Annual Survey YAC examples of high-impact and creative grantmaking: Community Foundation Grants Mt. Pleasant Area Community Foundation In October 2006, the YAC awarded a $5,000 grant to Mt. Pleasant High School to help support their "Teen Summit" and to specifically fund representative from the "Challenge Day" Program to be involved in the day. The Teen Summit was held in February 2007 and was set up like a conference with a variety of speakers/presentations available for students to choose from with the topics falling under the broad umbrella of Teen Victimization. There were small intensive breakout sessions during the day and a concluding keynote speaker from Challenge Day with their empowering "Be the Change" message. Student and staff groups spent months planning the Summit and 1500 students A $1,200 grant was awarded to Mio-AuSable School District for a Mobile Lab initiative, which purchased laptop computers for the high school. Because this school is so rural and lacks much needed funding, this grant provided an opportunity for students to have access to current technology and develop more of the skills needed to succeed in today's business world. Mini-Grants for Educators. It really helps educators provide programs that are above and beyond the basics. Because funding for education in Michigan is extremely tight, the mini-grants for educators can make the difference. Vanderbilt Middle School Family Night- Provided a program for families to enjoy activities together. The program was conducted the fall of 2006 and winter of 2007. Between 40 and 70 families participated each week. The "Connecting" Art Project for Youth in the Probate Court School had a big impact with those youth and the community that works with at risk youth. This grant received a "Great Grant" award this past summer at the Youth Summer Leadership Conference. Students Against Destructive Decisions (SADD) for the Houghton Lake Community Schools "County Wide Health Fair". Approximately 350 people attended the fair. There was also an assembly for K-12 students which had a speaker who addressed all the students about the need to make wise choices in their lives. Emphasized were the dangers of tobacco, alcohol and other drugs. The speaker also addressed parents at a well-attended parent meeting. In addition to the above mentioned issues were the following: proper dental care with free tooth brushes, sun awareness, seatbelt safety, healthy weight and exercise awareness. Curves, Weight Watchers and American Cancer Society had tables. North Central Michigan Community Foundation Osceola County Community Foundation Otsego County Community Foundation Petoskey-Harbor Springs Area Community Foundation Roscommon County Community Foundation YAC 2007 Annual Survey Report to the Field �YAC 2007 Annual Survey YAC examples of high-impact and creative grantmaking: Community Foundation Grants Saginaw Community Foundation FORCE In a matter of four days, Azim Khamisa reached out to over 2,600 students, youth, teachers, and community members to help spread his message of civic responsibility, anti-violence, and human understanding. His inspiring journey lasted from April 24th to April 28th, and was sponsored by many community organizations including a $1,000.00 grant from the Saginaw Community Foundation’s Youth FORCE. In 1995, Tariq Khamisa, a student at San Diego State University and Azim Khamisa?s only son, was shot and killed by 14-yearold Tony Hickes, while delivering pizzas. Since that day, Azim’s life has never been the same. Instead of choosing a life of retribution and revenge, he decided to take action and make something positive happen from his son’s tragedy. He went from a successful international investment banker to a social worker in a matter of months, starting the Tariq Khamisa Foundation (TKF) to stop kids from killing kids. Azim brought his message to Saginaw, confronting middle school and high school students about a topic that is not easy to talk about- youth and gang violence. However, having first-hand knowledge of the effects of violence, Azim more than captured the audiences’ attention- he engaged them. During one portion of Azim’s presentation, he asks the audience “how many of you have lost a family member to violence”. The number of students in 6th grade that raised their hands was astonishing. At some of the schools, seventy five percent of the students stated that they had lost someone close to them due to violence. Sanilac Count Community Foundation Southeast Ottawa Community Foundation Straits Area Community Foundation YAC 2007 Annual Survey Report to the Field During Azim’s trip, the message he shared will surely resonate with students long after he is gone. He had a connection with the students, an understanding. During his presentation at the Saginaw County Juvenile Detention Center, many of the kids were in tears. Because Azim’s message was hitting so close to home, the youth were talking about him well after he was gone and many wrote thank-you letters expressing their gratitude for such a positive and life-altering experience. Grant to Sanilac County Kids' Connection for Yellow Ribbon Suicide Prevention Program Fund the Ottawa County Mentoring Collaborative, which matches mentees with mentors, provides support, training, and incentives to mentors in Ottawa County. A $1,500 grant to an elementary school was a large contributor to a 5th grade class being able to travel to Philadelphia, PA to visit the historic sights. For many students in the Straits area, this is the farthest they ever have, or perhaps ever will, travel. Without this grant, the trip was not likely to have happened. �YAC 2007 Annual Survey YAC examples of high-impact and creative grantmaking: Community Foundation Grants Sturgis Area Community Foundation $10,000 grant for a program for middle school student called "Be the Change"-it is an anti-bullying, awareness program that received rave reviews from students and parents in the community. Tuscola County Community Foundation $5,000.00 was granted to the Human Development Commission to assist that organization with the development of an AfterSchool Latch Key Program. This program will be open from 3:15 to 6:00 p.m. Monday thru Friday and be open for Kindergarten through grade school students. The unique point of this program is that it will be integrated with a program that provides a similar type of service for senior citizens. So, not only will a valuable community service be provided, but young children and senior citizens will benefit from this group interaction. To fund a teen after-hours program at the library.

Sponsorship has been reduced by $10,000 to account for some possible attrition, and expenses for hotel costs (meals, rooms & AV) have been increased by $16,000 to account for the higher rates at this location. The increase from the prior year is due to the following meetings· Governance as Leadership GEO Peer Problem Solving GrantCraft Workshop on Personal Strategy GrantCraft - How Grantmakers Learn Essential Skills Workshop $10,500 40,000 7,000 5,200 10,000 Note 5: Publications Income The 151h Edition of the Michigan Foundation Directory was released in the fall of2006 and should generate revenue totaling $76,000 in 2006-07.

Planning Process An outstanding group of members has agreed to serve on this year's Conference Committee (see roster attached). The Committee will meet in person twice this spring: March 16 in Lansing to receive an orientation to the conference, the planning process and to identify priority session topics; and May 3 at the Hyatt Dearborn to approve proposed sessions and tour the faci lity. Marketing Conference marketing began at the 341h Annual Conference in Kalamazoo with participant notepads and pens with the 2007 conference dates and location. The conference dates are now included on: the Event Calendar on www.cmif.org, in E-N ews and in Memo to Members. In February 2007, an eye-catching save-the-date card was mailed to 4,500 foundation staff and trustees. Please see the back pocket of your notebook for a copy of the postcard.

Advancing giving. March 7, 2007 Memo to: CMF Board of Trustees From: Rob Collier RE: Establishment of CMF Core Services Endowment Fund Resolved, that the CMF Board of Trustees approve the establishment of a Core Services Endowment Fund using $600,000 of the approximately $1,200,000 Core Services surplus cash balance as recommended by the CMF Audit & Executive Committees. The purpose of this endowment fund will be to support Core Member Services. Background At December 2006 Audit Committee meeting we discussed the idea of establishing an endowment fund to support the ongoing Core Member Services using a portion of the current $1,200,000 surplus cash balance. Management is recommending that $600,000 of the current surplus be used to establish this endowment fund, leaving $600,000 as a cushion to cover fluctuations in our cash flow. Currently the cash surplus is invested in a Money Market account earning approximately 5% annually. By endowing a portion of these surplus dollars the spendable income should grow at a faster pace than current earnings on these funds. See attached worksheet.

Those Directories will be charged to the William Allen Fund and Russell G. Mawby Fund.

Joyce Early Childhood Tobacco Settlement IDA Funding 3 Year Technology Funders $334,000 160,000 593,000 218,000 Note 7: Wages The favorable YTD variance is primarily due to Core staff time that was spent on the following special projects: MSHDA Land Use Funders Access to Recreation support ECIC Support Joyce Foundation Early Learning support Overtime & Mise less than budget 6,900 2,000 4,200 6,700 12,200 8,900 Note 8: Equipment Maintenance The variance from budget is the result of the copier maintenance contract being lowered from $2,800 to $400 per quarter due the number of copies being run on the machine. This is primarily due to the increased use of the internet for communications purposes.

Advancing giving. March 7, 2007 Memo to: CMF Board of Trustees From: David R. Lindberg, Vice President Finance & Administration Re: December 31, 2006 Investment Report The following Resolution is presented for consideration: R ESOLVED that the December 31, 2006, Investment Report be accepted, as recommended by the CMF Investment Committee. On a quarterly basis, the combined Investment Committee for the Council of Michigan Foundations (CMF), Michigan Community Foundations' Venture (MCFV), Learning to Give (LTG) and the Michigan AIDS Fund (MAF), meets to review the investment performance for the operating and permanent endowment funds. New Business On March I, 2007, the CMF Investment Committee met to review and approve the enclosed reports. To follow up on the report from the October 17, 2006, Board meeting the Investment Committee is recommending that 25% of the CMF & LTG Endowment funds be invested in the TIFF Multi-Asset Fund to allow access to alternative asset categories. The TIFF Multi-Asset Fund is broken down as follows. Asset Class US Equities International Equities Fixed Income Real Estate High Y ield Bonds Absolute Return Commodities Resource-Related Stocks Cash % 25.2% 29.1 % 13.0% 3.0% .7% 12.1% 3.4% 8.6% 4.9% �Investment Report Page 2 To allow access to the alternative categories noted above, the Investment Committee is in the process of revising the Investment Policy statement which will be presented to the CMF Board for final approval at the May 2007 Board meeting. Because the TIFF product is a multi-asset/commingled fund that is meant for smaller foundations who want to invest their entire portfolio without having to worry about asset allocation issues, the Investment Committee is working on the follow ing changes to the investment policy: • • • • • The asset allocation policy will be split into a general pool (following the current asset allocation) and an alternative pool for multi-asset/commingled products. The initial investment in the alternative pool will be 25% of the current CMF & LTG Endowment portfolios. The general pool will continue to be rebalanced on a quarterly basis. Since the multi-asset/commingled products are rebalanced by the individual managers, the Investment Committee will monitor those asset allocations in light of current and anticipated market conditions. The committee will monitor the total asset allocation between the general and alternative pools and rebalance as appropriate; keeping in mind that many of the multi-asset/commingled products involve exit fees that will factor into the rebalancing decision. The enclosed Investment Report is presented in three sections. Investment Performance Report The benchmark is based on the targeted asset allocation fonnula listed below, using the Lipper median returns provided by Comerica on a quarterly basis. Asset Class S&P 500 S&P 400 S&P 600 REIT International Equities Short Bond Bond High Yield Bond Fund Cash Allocation 37.0% 9.0% 6.0% 5.0% 13.0% 12.5% 12.5% 5.0% 0% The Lipper returns are based on the following asset classes.

Investment Performance Comparison Report In addition to the Lipper returns and the Cambridge & Associates, Inc. pool of colleges, universities, and foundations, the committee has recently added the TIFF Multi-Asset fund for comparative purposes. The TIFF product is unique in the fact that it offers smaller foundations access to alternative investment products which have enhanced returns over the last several years. The reason this report lags the CMF Investment Report by one quarter is due to the time it takes Cambridge to collect the results from the pool participants.

March 7, 2007 To: Diana Sieger, Chair and Members ofthe Board of Trustees From: Rob Collier & Jenee Velasquez, Chair, Funders Concerned about Michigan's Economy Re: Funders Concerned about Michigan's Economy The Funders Group Concerned about Michigan's Economy met on February 16 at the University of Michigan to receive a briefing from Steve Forrest, Vice President for Research for the university. A copy of his PowerPoint presentation that has since been updated for his meeting with the Mott Foundation Board of Trustees is attached. We were very encouraged by Professor Forrest's passion and comm itment on behalf of President Coleman on the university's role in helping transform Michigan's economy. It is clear that the university recognizes its public responsibility and need for a new collaborative approach with the other universities in the state as well as other partners in tackling three key needs: capitol, talent and leadership. We have asked Prof. Forrest and his team to provide additional information on his Michigan Universities Commercialization Initiative (MUCI). We are excited to have the assistance of Andy Hastings whose resume is in the back pocket of your book, in helping our group explore models that other states are using to deal with economic transformation. An MBA student at the Ross School of Business, Andy has selected CMF as a volunteer assignment through the University of Michigan's Nonprofit Board Fellowship Program. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

March 6, 2007 Memo to: Diana Sieger, Chair and Members of the Board of Trustees From: Rob Collier, President cc: Libby Maynard and David Kennedy, Co-Chairs, Government Relations Committee Dave Egner, Co-Chair Public Policy Committee Re: Government Relations Report- Foundations on the Hill Visit 2007 The purpose of this memo is to: report on the February 27 & 28 Foundations on the Hill Visit; request consideration of support for two Washington policy issues- neither of which are on CMF's current Legislative Goals Statement or Public Policy Agenda; provide an update on one Michigan Legislative Goal and request support for reinstatement of the inheritance tax as a Michigan Legislative Goal. I. Foundations on the Hill Visit The largest delegation of Michigan foundation representatives ever - 46 -joined by three CMF staff and Foundation Liaison Karen Aldridge-Eason, participated in the annual Foundations on the Hill visit to our Michigan Congressional Delegation. A participant list is included as ATTACHMENT A. We were pleased to have 14 face to face meetings with members and three with staff. Several members, such as Representatives Upton and Knollen berg, stepped out of Committee Meetings to visit with us. We started our Washington visit with a special luncheon hosted by Peter and Julie Cummings at the Library of Congress. The curator of the maps and geography division brought several special maps of Michigan to share, and the curator for architecture led a special tour. We were then treated to a special visit from the Librarian ofthe Library of Congress, Jim Billington. We easily could have spent the whole afternoon listening to him talk about their efforts to digitize parts of the collection for the Internet and managing 2.5 million new acquisitions a year. Our thanks to Julie and Peter for this special treat! We had three special guests for our dinner on Tuesday evening: Michigan's newest member of Congress Tim Walberg from the ih District (representing Battle Creek and Jackson); Diana Aviv, president of Independent Sector; and Rodney Emery, Vice President of Government Relations for the Council on Foundations. Wednesday morning we cheered Congressman Dave Camp as he received the Friend of Philanthropy Award from the Council on Foundations and Forum of Regional Associations of Grantmakers after speaking to the more than 390 grantmakers from 40 �Government Relations Report March 2007 Page 2 states gathered for this annual event. The award was presented by our Chairperson Diana Sieger and Brian Rodgers, chair of the Midland Area Community Foundation. Our Wednesday morning visits were enhanced with a journalist from Tax Analyst, placed with us for four visits and two Diversity Fellows from the Associated Grantmakers of Massachusetts (AGM) matched with two of our members for visits. Information on Tax Analyst is included as ATTACHMENT B. While we are still collecting feedback from participants, the following three summary learnings are offered: • There is support for extension of the IRA Charitable Provision. Congressional Members were pleased to receive the preliminary list of recipients we have collected, included as ATTACHMENT C. As a next step we need to provide them with several examples of how this gifting opportunity really works. • There seems to be greater interest than before "on both sides of the aisle" in correcting the inequity/unfairness in the excise tax on private foundations. With helpful illustrations from CMF Trustees Dave Egner and Sterling Speirn, several Congressional Members expressed their concern about the chilling impact this tax has on the need for more giving at critical times, such as responding to Hurricane Katrina. As a next step, we need to work with the Council on Foundations in detem1ining how the tax could be simplified at a revenue neutral level. • While Representatives Levin and Camp have both sent letters to the Treasury at our request urging clarification of the new regulations on Donor Advised Funds and Supporting Organizations in the Pension Bill, support for a technical improvements bill to the Charitable Reform Provisions in the Pension Bill is too early to gauge until the Council on Foundations is able to provide draft language for such a bill. I look forward to having participating Trustees share their learnings from the visits as well. Several members have offered useful suggestions on how we can improve the Visits next year: • • • Reduce the number of talking points from six to three; Provide participants with a score card on how our Congressional Members have voted on these issues in the past and whether they are sponsors of proposed legislation; and Further simplify the issue papers so they are less "legalese." In sum, it was a productive Hill visit for all and the feedback we have received from both our members and Congressional Members has been most positive. �Government Relations Report March 2007 Page 3 II. Washington Policy Issues- Extension of the Conservation Easement Provision in the Pension Bill and Federal Support for 2-1-1 Let me first state that there has not been time to vet these two issues with the Government Relations Committee, Public Policy Committee or Land Use Funders Group. However, CMF has been asked by a number of members- both private and community foundations supporting each issue and the local land conservancies and United Ways that are serving as the implementing agencies - to support legislation on these issues as summarized below. The following proposed Resolution combines the issues, however they can be considered individually if the Board would like. On the first issue, we learned from Representative Camp that he will be the lead co-sponsor with Representative Thompson on the House Bill to accompany the Senate Bill already introduced by Senators Baucus and Grassley. This co-sponsorship by Grassley is a dramatic turn around on an issue he opposed a year ago. The Michigan Association of United Ways has developed a Business Plan for complete state 2-1-1 coverage that would cost $5 million annually and have a projected one million users a year. CMF has been asked by members to co-sponsor a briefmg on April 23 for our members in the areas of the State currently not served by 2-1-1 (as indicated in the map, ATTACHMENT D.) RESOLVED that the Council of Michigan Foundations support the Rural Heritage Conservation Act, S. 469 that will support the goals of sustainable land use and conservation promoted by the Land Use Funders Group and other members, and RESOLVED further that the Council of Michigan Foundations support 2-1-1 as an important resource for Michigan residents and therefore supportS. 211 and H.211 the Calling for 2-1-1 Act. Background on Conservation Easements: In January, Senate Finance Committee Chair Max Baucus (D-MT) introduced the Rural Heritage Conservation Extension Act of2007 to make the conservation easement permanent. Finance Committee Ranking Member Charles Grassley (R-IA) cosponsored the bill. The Bush Administration announced that the incentive in the Baucus-Grassley bill is included in their FY 2008 Budget proposal as a featured part of the work of the President's Cooperative Conservation Task Force. In the Pension Protection Act of2006, Congress changed the tax incentive for voluntary conservation donations - donations by private landowners that retire development rights to protect significant w ildlife, scenic and historic resources. That change enables family farmers, ranchers and other moderate-income landowners to get a significant tax benefit for such donations. Most of these donations are made to local, community-based charities dedicated to keeping land in agriculture, conserving important w ildlife habitats and protecting important open space and historic resources. �Government Relations Report March 2007 Page 4 The 2006 law: • Raised the maximum deduction a donor can take for donating a conservation easement from 30% of their adjusted gross income (AGI) in any year to 50%; • Allowed qualified farmers and ranchers to deduct up to I 00% of their AGI; and • Increased the number of years over which a donor can take deductions from 6 years to 16 years. Under prior law, an agricultural landowner earning $50,000 a year who donated a conservation easement worth $1 million could take a total of no more than $90,000 in tax deductions. Under the new law, that landowner can take as much as $800,000 in tax deductions - still less than the full value of their donation but a significant increase. The 2006 law also set higher standards for appraisers and appraisals of all donated property and set higher penalties for abusive appraisals. Conservationists support this to ensure the integrity of the charitable donation process. The law also tightened restrictions on donations of easements to protect historic buildings. These reforms do not expire at the end of this year. Background on 2-1-1: The Calling for 2-1-1 Act was introduced in January 2007 to provide federal financial support to designated state 2-1-1 entities. The bills (H.211 and S.211) have bipartisan support in both houses, with 91 House cosponsors and 31 in the Senate. The Callingfor 2-1-1 Act seeks to authorize federal funding of $150 million for years one and two and $100 million for years three through five through the US Department of Health & Human Services to help implement and sustain 2-1-1 nationwide. States would be required to provide a 50% match in order to draw down the federal dollars. The federal funding can be used for a variety of 2-1-1 related purposes, including but not limited to planning for and implementing 2-1-1 , operating costs, technology upgrades, public awareness, training and evaluation. States' 2-1-1 systems are public-private partnerships, locally designed by community stakeholders to save time and reduce confusion for citizens seeking access to human services. As of January 2007, approximately 65% of the US population had access to 2-1-1 services; 2-1-1 provides an enhanced experience for those seeking assistance and substantial cost savings. Estimated benefits total at least $1 .1 billion over ten years, with almost $ 130 million in the first year alone, according to a University of Texas study. Call centers helped reduce the burden on 9-1-1 operators in the wake of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, assisting in non-emergency situations with information and referral services. In Michigan, 2-1-1 is currently available to 70% of Michigan's citizens - it streamlines access to needed health and human services. Call centers are staffed by trained specialists who quickly assess callers' needs and refer them to the help they need. It is simple to remember, accessible to everyone at no cost and available 2417 with multilingual capabilities. �Government Relations Report March 2007 Page 5 III. Michigan Legislative Goals SBT Tax Credit for Gift to Endowment Funds Held by Community Foundations Goal 5 of the State Section of the Legislative Goals Statement is: To monitor administration of the permanent community foundation tax credits for individuals, families and businesses and their relationship to current and proposed tax credits. With the decision by the Legislature to eliminate the Single Business Tax (SBT) at the end of2007, the community foundation tax credit in the SBT ($5,000 or 10% of the SBT liability, whichever is less) will be eliminated as well. In meetings with the Speaker of the House and Legislative Leadership, I have been assured that it is their intent to transfer the charitable credits along with other economic development credits to the new tax that will replace the SBT. There is great interest in maintaining these credits as a way of incentivizing corporate giving. At a meeting in January with the Otsego County Community Foundation in Gaylord, the executive director announced to me that the Foundation had just received a donation from a small company using the SBT tax credit to create a scholarship fund with the $5,000 credit leveraging a $1 5,000 gift. Michigan Inheritance Tax The following resolution is recommended for consideration. If approved, this Resolution will become a new Goal in the Legislative Goals Statement. RESOLVED that the Council of Michigan Foundations oppose reintroduction of a Michigan Inheritance Tax, which will encourage Michigan residents to move their primary residence out of state, and encourage reintroduction of the pick up tax as part of the federal estate tax that would place Michigan on an equal level as other states. Background Repeal of the State Inheritance Tax has been listed as an accomplishment in CMF' s Legislative Statement since 1993. However, the Governor has proposed that Michigan decouple from the Federal Estate Tax which would allow Michigan to reinstitute an Inheritance Tax. HB 4377 (ATTACHMENT E), the Michigan Estate Tax Act, has been introduced to address this issue. I have met with Representative Bieda, Chair of the House Committee on Tax Policy and the sponsor, Representative Condino who have agreed to delay a Committee Hearing on this Bill until they can receive more information on the feasibility of reintroduction of the federal pickup tax. Speaker Dillon also acknowledged that he is troubled by the idea of driving wealthy Michigan residents out of state and has requested further information on the impact of this proposed inheritance tax. I have been in touch with the Tax Policy Center for assistance on this matter. A pickup tax provides revenue to the state but does not increase the federal estate tax payment the heirs must make. Instead the estate's federal estate tax liability is reduced by �Government Relations Report March 2007 Page 6 the amount of the state tax payment. This credit dates back to the early 1900's when Congress introduced a federal estate tax guaranteeing states a portion of the estate tax base. Thirty-five states, including Michigan, in 2000 had an estate tax that equaled the amount of the state credit. The Center on Budget and Policy Priorities in Washington reports that Michigan received revenue in 2000 of $187 million from this tax, all of which has now been lost with the changes in the federal estate tax. �CMF Council of Michigan Foundations Serving grantmakers.

IRA Charitable Provision is Increasing Michigan Giving Forty-one respondents to a quick survey confirm that the IRA Charitable Provision is having an impact on growing giving in Michigan. Since the August passage of the Pension Protection Act of 2006, survey respondents report gifts in excess of $1.4 million to nonprofit organizations and community foundations (see list of recipient organizations below). The donors' philanthropic interests - medical research, community development, arts and culture and education - are broad and beneficial for Michigan's citizens. And, this list continues to grow - we hear stOries of new gifts from IRAs every week! This increase in giving in lVIichigan is confirmed nationally by the National Committee on Planned Giving that over $25 million in gifts made by IRAs nationally - ranging from $100 to the maximum $100,000 allowed by law. Charitable giving will continue to increase in Nlichigan if Congress extends the IRA Charitable Provision beyond 2007, lifts the $100,000 cap and allows gifts to donor-advised funds of community foundations and private foundations to qualify.

The topic continued last year's theme of the future of community foundations in a transatlantic perspective with 17 community foundation executives, representatives of support organizations and academic scholars from nine different countries participating. The Academy was opened by a Helmut Anheier, Director of the Center of Civil Society at the UCLA, and Diana Leat, Research & Development Director - Progressive Philanthropy at Carnegie UK, with a presentation on "Towards the Creative Community Foundation". Both scholars presented their concept of "creative philanthropy" and discussed its meaning for community foundations. The concept of "creative philanthropy" focuses on the unique capacity of foundations to identify solutions to problems, to initiate and carry through innovation processes, and to help disseminate and implement sustainable results. Key questions addressed were: • • • To what extent do or could community foundations display the characteristics of creative foundations? Are they inherently creative, or do they have to become, or being turned into, creative foundations through specific leadership patterns as well as management decis ions and practices? Are there structural features of community foundations that encourage creativity? Participants discussed findings and assumptions of the creative philanthropy approach with a particular emphasis on the questions what characteristics of a "creative foundation" were of relevance for community foundations. The discussion also focused on the larger opportunities and visions for community foundations within the overall philanthropic sector. The discussion on community foundations and "creative philanthropy" was followed by a brainstonning session for a major new book project which is envisioned as an international version of "An Agile Servant" published in 1989. Academy participants focused their efforts in particular on identifying core content and developing a comprehensive outline for this new publication.

March 7, 2007 Memo to: Diana Sieger, Chair and Members of the Board of Trustees From: Rob Collier, Dave Lindberg and Vicki Rosenberg Re: Redesigned Plan of Work Document The Council of Michigan Foundations' (CMF) Plan of Work is primarily used to inform the Board of Trustees about the proposed activities for the upcoming fiscal year. Secondarily, the Plan of Work is used by management as a planning and monitoring tool. For FY07, the Plan of Work has been redesigned to more effectively: • Provide a complete strategic overview of CMF's work on one-page vs. on multiple pages as in prior years. • Highlight: (a) on-going activities that occur each year; and (b) proposed new activities for FY07 by presenting them in separate, side-by-side columns vs. in one column as in prior years. • Be an easy reference tool during the year. W e hope the tighter focus and one-page format serves the Board's purposes and look forward to any comments. �Mission: To Str&flgl hfln, promOifland _..,C/'(IIIS6 phi/anthropyi'!Michigan.
