                    <text>New Partnerships for Michigan VISTA Project

OVERVIEW: The New Partnerships for Michigan VISTA project will place teams of
three volunteers in six regions of the state to promote and support citizendriven community problem solving through service and volunteerism.
Michigan's New Partnerships VISTA project is administered by the
Michigan Nonprofit Association in partnership with the Council of
Michigan Foundations and the Michigan Community Service Commission.
PROGRAM FOCUS: In six areas of the state, VISTAs will support the New Partnerships
concept for community problem solving, through communication, citizen
action and collaboration among private, nonprofit, and government sectors.
VISTA efforts will strengthen inter-sector partnerships and support citizendriven community solutions particularly related to school success and to
youth development during non-school hours.
LOCATIONS: Three AmeriCorps*VISTA volunteers will work in each of the six areas
(centered, but not limited to that town): Jackson, Muskegon, Detroit,
Roscommon, Saginaw, and Marquette.
FOCUS GOALS:
•

To assist in collaborative community strategic planning for service and
volunteerism.

•

To assist local collaboratives in developing their own program capacity and
alternative funding sources.

•

To develop community "asset maps," link new partners, and recruit
volunteers to meet identified needs.

•

To facilitate the development of service learning and other community
service opportunities, especially in the form of"one-stop shopping" models
for comprehensive community-based program services.

1.

Welcome and Call to Order: The meeting was called to order by Chairperson
R. Cole at 2:15 p.m.

2.

Review of Minutes: The minutes of the October 16, 1995, meeting were approved.

3.

Chair's Report: R. Cole reported on the establishment of the Russell G. Mawby Fund
for Volunteerism. MNA received a $500,000 endowment grant from the W.K.
Kellogg Foundation in the name of Russ Mawby. The funds will be used to fund
programs that promote volunteerism and a life long service ethic in young people.
R. Cole introduced Jennifer Fauss, the Points of Light Foundation Youth Engaged in
Service (YES) Ambassador. MNA will house this position within its offices for the
next nine months. In her position as YES Ambassador, Jennifer will serve as an MNA
staff member and work closely with Volunteer Centers of Michigan and the Michigan
Campus Compact.
R. Cole informed the committee of Blue Cross Blue Shield's willingness to work with
MNA on redesigning its publications and printed materials. Representatives from Blue
Cross Blue Shield of Michigan and its ad agency, TraverRohrback, recently met with
MNA staff members to accomplish this goal.
The Russell G. Mawby Award, co-sponsored by MNA and CMF, will be presented at
the Governor's Community Service Awards Dinner on May 16 at the Lansing Center.

�Helen Philpott is co-chairing the selection committee comprised of three MNA trustees
and three CMF trustees.
Calendars were distributed to executive committee members to plan future executive
committee meetings. The MNA staff will collect and review the calendars. Future
meeting dates will be announced at the April 4 executive committee meeting.
R. Cole announced that the meeting agenda does not include a report from the
president. D. Egner will give his report at the executive session at the end of the
meeting.
R. Cole reported that Donna Clarke, vice president and COO of MNA will be
departing the MNA staff on May 17. Donna will graduate top of her class from
Cooley Law School this spring. She has been offered a position to practice law with
the firm of Howard and Howard in Lansing. Executive committee members
congratulated D. Clarke on her outstanding achievement and thanked her for her many
years of service to MNA.
R. Cole commented on the success of the Governor's Summit on February 12, 1996.
The committee discussed separating the religious sector into its own category. Sr.
Monica Kostielney raised concerns about the divisiveness this may cause. The
executive committee expressed concern about keeping the religious sector separate from
the nonprofit community. The committee directed D. Egner to communicate this
concern with the Council of Michigan Foundations and the Michigan Community
Service Commission.
MNA switched its health insurance carrier from Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan to
Physicians Health Plan (PHP). R. Cole, in support of D. Egner's decision, shared this
administrative decision with the committee. PHP offers MNA a significant cost
savings.
4.

Fund Development Report: M. Moomaw informed the committee that plans for the
George W. Romney Fund for Volunteerism are underway. The goal of the campaign is
to raise 1.5 million dollars. Lenore Romney has agreed to serve as honorary chair of
the Campaign. In addition, honorary involvement is expected from the Romney
children, Governor and Mrs. Engler, and former governors and their spouses. The
campaign will be structured in a team format and will officially be kicked off in
May 1996. D. Johnson requested that the committee see something in writing on the
campaign. She also suggested that a firm commitment for at least one-third of the
funds be in place before the campaign is kicked off. R. Cole suggested that a
monument of Governor Romney be placed on the capital lawn - something that
demonstrates his involvement in community service. The committee charged D. Egner
with putting together a list of ideas on how to organize this effort.

�M. Moomaw reported on the development and progress of MNA Regional Member
Meetings. Four to five meetings are being planned across the state to service current
members and recruit new members. Each meeting will include a fundraising seminar
followed by a networking reception. Two meetings have been scheduled in the Detroit
area for March 27, 1996 and April 24, 1996.
Plans are underway to re-build the MCC Venture Grant Process. M. Moomaw shared
the past success of venture grants and the significant impact they have on higher
education institution's decision to be a member of MCC. M. Moomaw is developing
strategies to seek corporate contributions and grants for the funding of this program.
5.

Finance Committee Report: J. King reviewed MNA's income and expense statement
as of January 31, 1996. It was suggested that the revenue and expense statement be
modified to include a column for June 30, 1996 projections. This column will allow
the board to see what MNA's financial position will be at the end of the fiscal year.

6.

Membership Committee Report: D. Clarke acknowledged and thanked Chairman R.
Cole for arranging a meeting with representatives from Blue Cross Blue Shield of
Michigan to help in redesigning MNA publications and printed materials. To date
MNA has 350 members. Membership renewal notices have been changed to more
closely resemble an invoice. Retention rate is up to 80% compared to 74% at this
point last year. The MNA staff will be contacting members at least once a year by
phone to discuss MNA services. The board-driven membership campaign to date has
resulted in six new members.

7.

Program and Services Update: D. Clarke updated the committee on plans for
Grantmakers/Grantseekers VIII (GG8) scheduled for May 17 at the Lansing Center.
CMF will again co-sponsor the conference. Dr. Bill Richardson, president of the W.K.
Kellogg Foundation, will deliver the morning keynote address. The committee is
currently pursuing potential keynote speakers for the afternoon. Louis Sullivan, who
the committee was pursuing for the last several months, has a scheduling conflict and
can not attend. Conference brochures will be sent out in early April.
D. Egner updated the committee on the Community Renewal Conference scheduled for
May 16 at the Lansing Center. This conference will follow the MNA annual board
meeting. Lester Salamon, director of the Institute for Policy Studies at Johns Hopkins
University, will be the keynote speaker. Following the conference MNA and CMF
will host a legislative reception. The Governor's Community Service Awards Dinner
will follow the reception from 7:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m.
D. Clarke reported that to date the nonprofit classified service has been very successful.
The service is attracting new members for MNA. MNA is contracting with
commissioned sales representatives to help sell ad space.

�8.

Michigan Campus Compact Report: Lisa McGettigan provided a brief overview of the
recent activities of MCC's four main constituency groups; presidents, faculty, staff and
students. The MCC presidents met on January 29, 1996 at the W.K. Kellogg
Foundation in Battle Creek. The presidents are trying to coordinate a meeting in late
May that would coincide with conferences being hosted by other higher education
associations. This meeting would allow for more participation from presidents as well
as serve as a recruitment method for MCC.
The Student Community Action Network (SCAN), held their first annual student
leadership conference at Grand Valley State University on January 27, 1996. The
successful conference was designed and facilitated by students.
The MCC faculty committee is planning their first annual Faculty Institute on March
29, 1996 at Lansing Community College. The goal of the conference is to give faculty
members from across the state an opportunity to collaborate on service learning
initiatives.
The MCC Community Service Coordinators are planning a student recognition
ceremony for April 13, 1996. This is an opportunity for MCC to formally
acknowledge the outstanding commitment to service demonstrated by students attending
MCC member institutions.

9.

Volunteer Centers of Michigan Report: A. Cantrell reported on VCM's upcoming
election of officers. The recommended slate of officers includes Carolyn Harvey as
president, Kathy Rossow as vice president and Amy Smitter as secretary.
S. Singh reported that VCM is hosting the Points of Light Foundation's Capacity
Building Institute on March 10 and 11, 1996. The conference is designed to assist
volunteer centers in developing plans and skills to move towards implementing the
vision of VC2000. S. Singh reintroduced Jennifer Fauss and described some of the
activities she will be working on with VCM. VCM is in the final stages of securing a
contract with Red Ridge Software Company for volunteer management software. In
addition, VCM is working to develop access for volunteer centers on the World Wide
Web. S. Singh reported he is meeting with the Michigan Association of Volunteer
Administrators (MAVA) and POLF to discuss ways to strengthen relationships between
volunteer organizations.

10.

Public Policy Report: D. Johnson reported on the public policy committee meeting on
January 23, 1996. The committee has developed a draft set of guidelines and principles
regarding policy items supported by MNA. The guidelines will be reviewed for final
revisions at the committee's April 4, 1996 meeting. The executive committee approved
the guidelines and, barring any major changes from the public policy committee,
recommended that they be submitted to the MNA board at the May 16, 1996 meeting
for final adoption of the document.

�In conjunction with their April 4 meeting, the public policy committee will hold an
open forum for MNA members and other interested groups to share their comments
regarding the proposed rewrite of Michigan's Charitable Solicitation Act. The
executive committee approved the public policy committee sharing the guidelines
document with members present at the open forum on April 4, 1996.

and recommend candidates to fill these vacancies.

Welcome and Call to Order: The meeting was called to order by Chairman King at

quarter Michigan Nonprofit Association financial statements (attachment 1) were
reviewed by the committee. The second quarter statements are MNA's first

the expense/revenue statement and balance sheet were approved as presented.
D. Egner announced the receipt of a $500,000 grant from the W. K. Kellogg
Foundation to implement the Russell G. Mawby Fund for Youth Service and
Volunteerism. The grant will be paid in two $250,000 payments. The first
payment was received in early February and the second will be sent this fall.

3.

Discussion on Draft Reserves and Investments Policy: The committee reviewed
and discussed the draft reserves and investments policy. The committee offered
several changes to clarify the objectives of the provisions. Staff will make these
changes and present the final draft of the policy to committee at its next meeting.

4.

Date of Next Meeting: After discussion, the committee agreed that its next
meeting would be held on April 2, 1996 at 9:30 a.m.

Finance Report Narrative
BALANCE SHEET

Investments:

Currently $671,132 are in certificates of deposit.

Restricted Investment-Mawby Fund &amp; Endowment Receivable-Mawby Fund:
MNA was fortunate to receive a $500,000 endowment from the W.K. Kellogg
Foundation in the name of Russell G. Mawby. The funds from this endowment will be
used to enhance youth volunteerism programs in Michigan. $250,000 of the grant was
received. The other $250,000 is a receivable that will be paid in the late summer or
early fall of 1996.

Accounts Receivable-MCC Dues &amp; Accounts Receivable-Grant: Both of these line items are receivables
from Michigan State University. The MCC dues amount will be paid prior to the end of
MNA's fiscal year. The funds reported in the accounts receivable grant line item is the
remains of the W.K. Kellogg Foundation grant that has been approved for tJansfer. We
are awaiting the funds from MSU' s Grants and Contracts Office.

Accounts Receivable-Classified Ads: These are funds due MNA from organizations that have placed
classified advertisements in Crain's Nonprofit News.
Liabilities and Fund Balance

Defe"ed Member Revenue &amp; Defe"ed Membership Revenue MCC: With the switch to an accrual
accounting system, MNA is now deferring the appropriate portion of member dues as
they are received each month. To date, dues deferred to next fiscal year equal more than
$33,000.

Defe"ed Grant Revenue: $507,500 is deferred from the $950,000 Kellogg Grant received in 1995.
Fund Balance:

The operating fund balance is $27,455. The equipment fund balance is $9,830.
Revenue over expenses equals $640,045 . Revenue over expenses includes the $500,000
from the Mawby Fund that is in permanent endowment.

STATEMENT OF REVENUE AND EXPENSES
Revenue

General Contributions: General contributions are down somewhat because of the late invoicing ofboard
members for their personal contributions. We anticipate that we will finish the year at
approximately $2,250.

Interest and Dividends: The two line items of interest in dividends include interest from the Mawby Fund
and interest drawn from other investments. The deferred revenue from the W.K.
Kellogg grant received in 1995 is responsible for the return of$22,813 . We project that
MNA will finish the year at just over $33,000 in these two line items.

1

�Kellogg Grant to VCM: This $50,000 is from a 1994 grant to MNA These funds are earmarked for
VCM capacity building and will be offset by the program grant line item.
Grants and Contracts: Grants and contracts are just below $329,000. We anticipate that we will finish
the year slightly above $350,000 in this line item. The annual budget $500,000 amount
. included $150,000 for MCC Venture Grants. We have delayed the start of the MCC
Venture Grant program to the next fiscal year. An offsetting entry in the expense
column will result in no financial 4flpact of this delay.
Program Fees:

Several program items are now being tracked separately because of the shift in our
accounting program. We anticipate that total program fee income by year end will be
$84,500. The majority of these funds will come in during the month of May as part of
the Grantmakers/Grantseekers revenue.

Member Dues:

Member dues have been split into more specific categories. As of the March statement,
inter-departmental transfers have not taken place to accurately indicate dollars paid by
each of the three classifications. It is anticipated that we will end the year at
approximately $127,000 in total dues paid The annual budget of$158,000 was
approved by the board before the shift to an accrual accounting system. This move to an
accrual system will result in year end figures being below the budgeted amount;
however, our cash position will actually exceed the annual budget.

Expenses

Salaries:

MNA is running below budget on salary e:11:penditures. We anticipate ending the year at
approximately $287,000. A large part of this savings is a result of starting two budgeted
positions later in the fiscal year than anticipated.

Benefits: Benefits are running under budget at the same pace as salaries. We anticipate ending the year
· at $84,500.
Liability Insurance, Travel Expenses, and Contract Services: These line items will finish near the annual
budgeted amount.
Office Expenditures: As ofMarch 31 office expenditures exceeded $59,000. We anticipate that we will
finish the year at just over $74,000. The majority of this overage is a result of$5,000
spent to furnish and equip additional offices after the MCC merger.
Meeting Expenses: The majority of these expenditures will occur at the Grantmakers/ Grantseekers
Seminar. We anticipate finishing the year at just under $40,000.
Program Grants: The $125,000 budgeted in program grants is an entry that offsets the majority of the
$150,000 of revenue budgeted in Grants and Contracts for Venture Grants. $50,000
will be paid out in this line item this year for VCM capacity building.
We anticipate ending the year with revenue and expenditures equal to $606,127.

�Michigan Nonprofit Association
1996-97 Suggested Budget
Narrative
The 1996-97 proposed Michigan Nonprofit Association budget includes revenue and
expenditures from the programs operated in 1995-96 and several additional program
initiatives. New program initiatives include a service and volunteerism super conference
that will be conducted in March of 1997 and a number of training and workshops
conducted by the Volunteer Centers of Michigan and Michigan Campus Compact.
Additionally, there are additional revenue increases in the Crain's Nonprofit Classified
Service.
Substantial differences between the 1995-96 projected year end and the 1996-97 budget
are outlined below.

Unrestricted Income
Interest and Dividends:

Increases in this budgeted item result from revenues from the
Russell G. Mawby Fund. A $500,000 grant is earmarked for
increasing and enhancing volunteer service for Michigan's
young people.

Grants and Contracts:

The 1996-97 budget includes $222,500 of the W.K. Kellogg
Foundation funds currently in restricted grant revenue.

Program Fees:

The budget includes the addition of$60,000 for the
volunteerism super conference, $28,000 from Crain's Nonprofit
Classified Service, and additional revenue from meetings and
trainings.

Member Dues:

Increases here represent additional member institutions joining
the Michigan Campus Compact and additional MNA members.

Program Grants:

Included in the 1996-97 budget is $30,000 from the W.K.
Kellogg Foundation grant for volunteer center capacity
building. An additional $50,000 will be raised for the MCC
Venture Grants program.

�Expense
Salaries:

The budgeted number represents a 5% increase pool for
existing MNA employees. The 95-96 projected numbers are
significantly lower because two full-time employees and one
half-time employee were on staff only a portion of the fiscal
year.

Benefits:

The increase in benefits corresponds to the increase in staff
salaries.

Liability Insurance:

We have budgeted for a 5% increase in this line item.

Contract Services:

The major increase in this area is an increase in purchase space
from Crain 's Nonprofit News. Additional program fee revenue
has offset this expense.

Office Operations:

Budgeted increase in office operations are a result of additional
expenses incurred in the above mentioned new programming
initiatives.

Meetings:

New program initiatives increase the meeting budget for 199697 substantially when compared to 1995-96. The majority of
this expenditure increase is a result of the super conference
mentioned above.

Travel:

A 10% increase has been budgeted in travel for 1996-97. We
anticipate greater in-state travel for both the director ofVCM
and the director ofMCC as they conduct site visits of all of
their constituents.

Program Grants:

$50,000 has been budgeted for MCC Venture Grants for 199697. These funds will be raised during the fiscal year. $30,000
has been budgeted for volunteer center capacity building; this
expense is offset by revenue in the program grants line item.

G e o r g e W. R o m n e y Fund
for Volunteerism
The Michigan Nonprofit Association and the Volunteer Centers of
Michigan have announced the creation of the George W. Romney Fund
to increase and improve volunteerism in Michigan. With a goal of $ 1.5
million, the endowment fund, named for Michigan's former governor,
will distribute money to benefit local volunteer centers and innovative
volunteer programming throughout Michigan.
Romney was recognized nationally as a leader

^

in the volunteer movement. He founded the
National Volunteer Center, served as a f o u n d i n g
trustee of the Points of Light Foundation and the
Michigan Nonprofit Association, and spearheaded the development
of a number of volunteer centers in Michigan. Three years ago, in
collaboration with Michigan's First Lady, Michelle Engler, and former
First Lady, Janet Blanchard, Romney started the Michigan Campaign
for Volunteerism, an initiative to increase the number of volunteers in
Michigan and to strengthen Michigan's volunteer centers. Since its
inception, the number of volunteer centers in Michigan has grown
from nine to 27.
The fund will begin making grants in 1997 and will be administered
by the Michigan Nonprofit Association. Organizations and individuals
interested in making contributions to the George W. Romney Fund for
Volunteerism in Michigan should call the Michigan Nonprofit Association
at (517)353-5038.

George W. Romney was a man of strong beliefs whose values were
the focal point of his daily life. He had a passion for community which
made him a powerful leader and citizen. George Romney cherished his
role as a volunteer. The night before his passing he was at a dinner for the
Volunteer Leadership Coalition and introduced himself in his usual way,
"George Romney, volunteer." He was proud of his many achievements in
the area of volunteerism.
Romney was a true believer when he declared, "The most powerful

Campaign Overview
The George W. Romney Fund for Volunteerism was developed
to increase and improve volunteerism in M i c h i g a n . A goal of $1.5
m i l l i o n has been set.
Concepts important in the development of the Romney Fund:

r*

Romney believed successful volunteer centers and programs that
utilize volunteers include three essentials:
• Leadership
• Funds to build local infrastructure
• Media support
With these points in mind, one focus of the fund is to strengthen
the local volunteer centers. This will be accomplished by distributing
$750,000 to the local volunteer centers to establish their own
e n d o w m e n t f u n d s . These endowment f u n d s will be supplemented
by a one-to-one cash match raised at the local level. In addition to
providing grants to volunteer centers, the fund will m a i n t a i n $750,000
in an endowment for volunteer projects across the state. The fund will
also finance an annual public relations campaign to increase awareness
and spur participation in volunteer programs.
How can I contribute to the George W. Romney Fund?
Volunteers from across the state are spearheading the campaign.
They encourage your participation. You can complete the enclosed
pledge card or call the Michigan Nonprofit Association at (517) 353-5038.
The campaign officially starts in spring of 1996 and will conclude in
December of 1996. The fund will begin making grants in late 1997.

�Dr. Ira Harkavy
Director of the Center for Community Partnerships
University of Pennsylvania
Ira Harkavy is Director of the Center for Community Partnerships at the University of Pennsylvania. He teaches in
both the history and the urban studies departments, and is Executive Editor of Universities and Community Schools.
Harkavy recently served as Director of the Penn Program for Public Service, Vice Dean of the School of Arts and
Sciences, and Executive Director of the Program for Assessing and Revitalizing the Social Sciences (also at the University). He is currently consultant to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development for the creation of its new
Office of University Partnerships.
Harkavy received his doctorate in history from the University of Pennsylvania in 1979. His research has focused on
school and community revitalization in Philadelphia and other cities. In recent years, he has written on how to involve
universities effectively in democratic partnerships with local public schools and their communities. The West Philadelphia Improvement Corps (WEPIC), a partnership linking the University of Pennsylvania and the West Philadelphia
community, emerged and developed from seminars and research projects he directs with other colleagues at the University.

learning movement; to engage students in thoughtful action; and to explore their
roles as active citizens in a democracy.

�contribution. We appreciate your continued commitment to MNA through the
contribution of both your time and resources.
Evaluation Meeting - MNA is also designing an evaluation for the recent W. K. Kellogg
grant. A group of key stakeholders in MNA' s work will convene on January 25, 1996
from 9:30a.m. to 2:00p.m. to work on the evaluation design. John Seeley, president of
Formulative Evaluation Research Associates (FERA) will lead this small group of
individuals through a design process. Any board members interested in attending the
evaluation meeting should call the MNA offices.
Istook Amendment Update - The Istook "Silence America" Amendment to limit nonprofit
lobbying is temporarily dead. The amendment, which was temporarily attached to the
continuing resolution and to the lobbying disclosure bill, was removed from all proposed
legislation. However, it is anticipated that the amendment will again be pushed by
Congressman Istook in 1996. We will continue to keep you updated on Istook and other
public policy issues of importance to nonprofit organizations in Michigan.
Tax Incentive for Charitable Giving Update - Since our board meeting, the tax incentive
task force has met with Senate Majority Leader Dick Posthumus and House Speaker Paul
Hillegonds about the possibility of introducing legislation that would provide a tax
deduction for charitable giving. Both meetings were very successful. We anticipate that a
draft bill will be introduced sometime in the spring of 1996.
Finally, we want to pass along best wishes to you and your families for a joyous holiday season
and a happy New Year.
