�MEMORANDUM
TO:

RE:

MNA Financial Statement for the Month Ending Apri130, 1999

In reviewing the financial statements for the month ending April 30, 1999, I felt the following
information would be helpful. As a reminder, the MNA financial statements have been modified
to reflect the new laws governing nonprofit financial reporting.
STATEMENT OF REVENUE AND EXPENSE
The information below is based on YTD (Year To Date) Variance which is detailed in the last
column ofthe Statement of Revenue and Expenses .

Revenue
General Contributions: &lt;2,250&gt;. General and individual contributions are behind projections.
Interest &amp; Dividends : &lt; 1,509&gt;. Interest and dividends are behind projections due to interest
earned on the George W . Romney Endowment Fund.
Restricted Grants and Contracts: +36,667. This item ahead of projections because a grant was
received earlier than anticipated.
Restricted Grants Corporate Volunteer Program: &lt;100,000&gt;. The grants that were requested
were turned down for the 1998-1999 year. We do not anticipate receiving any money in this line
item. The corresponding expenses will not be utilized.
Restricted Grants Training and Technical Assistance : &lt;5,000&gt;. This line item is ahead of budget
projections because of a grant coming in sooner than anticipated.
Membership Dues : .
• VCM : &lt;4,608&gt;. This line item is slightly behind projections due to volunteer centers and
MA VA members that have not paid their dues yet for the 1998-99 fiscal year.
•

MCC : &lt; 13,812&gt;. The budget includes additional membership revenue from five prospective
MCC member schools . At this point only two of those schools have joined. We expect the
additional schools to join in 1999.

•

MNA : &lt; 17, 151 &gt;. MNA memberships are accrued based on anniversary date.

Unrestricted Grant ConnectMichigan: +36,922. A portion ofthis line item was budgeted in the
line item Restricted Grant VCM.

�Restricted Grant VCM: &lt;75,000&gt;. 'This line item is behind projections, but recognize (+36,922)
of the Unrestricted Grant ConnectMichigan to subsidize the budget projections.
Restricted Grants MCC: &lt;12,948&gt;. 'This line item is behind budgeted projections.
Restricted Grant MPPI: +9,268 . MNA is received a grant from the Charles Stewart Mott
Foundation for 100,000 that put this program ahead of schedule.
Restricted Grant AmeriCorps : + 179, 109. A larger program was budgeted for in 1998--99,
however, due to AmeriCorps member tum over in conjunction with a decline in community sites,
the program has been scaled back. Once the budget is amended with the funder the number will
be back to scale.
Restricted Grant Fetzer: &lt;7,653&gt;. 'This grant is slightly behind schedule, however it will balance
out at the end of the fiscal year.
Restricted Grant MCC-CNS : +31 ,657. Year two of the CNS grant was recognized in October
ahead of schedule.
Consulting &lt; 19,023&gt;. This line item is currently behind projections. MNA continues to seek
consulting opportunities.
Program Fees : &lt;8,982&gt; Local AmeriCorps payments have been budgeted for January but will be
received in February and March.
Sponsorships Conferences : + 14,350. Sponsorship received for Grantmakers I Grantseekers
Conference were unbudgeted.
Sponsorships NP Outreach: +5,600 . These numbers were unbudgeted, but utilized to subsidize
the membership directory publication.
Publications: &lt;35, 199&gt;. This line item is behind due to slower than anticipated sales of
Michigan In Brief and the MNNMSAE Compensation and Benefits Survey. The revenue
generated (+5,600) to subsidize the membership directory publication has been recognized in the
sponsorship nonprofit outreach line.
Miscellaneous Income: +4,224 . 'This includes revenue from the America's Promise Video, VCM
shirt sales and GSA dinner reservation that was not included in the budget.
Total Revenue : +7,662 . Overall increase of 1 %in budgeted revenue.

Expenses

(negative expense items reflect a positive impact on the bottom line .)

Salaries and Benefits : &lt; 134,769&gt;. 'This line item reflects a reduction in AmeriCorps members
and staff transition.
Contract Services : &lt;94,330&gt;. Contracted services is dramatically decreased due to current staff
taking on many of the functions that we considered contracting out

�Office. Meeting. and Travel Expenses : &lt; 145,709&gt;. These line items represent savings on
expenses that are a direct result of grant program expenses being down, and staff transition. In
addition, some expenditures have been delayed until outstanding grants are received.
Program Grants: &lt; 18, 151 &gt;. This line item is a result of program grants that will be awarded
during the next fiscal year 1999-2000.
Miscellaneous: +I ,529. This line item is ahead of projections due to job search related expenses
that were not included in the budget.

MNA Trustee Updates
Welcome-- the MNA Board was pleased to welcome the following new board
members at the June 15, 1999 board meeting : Karla Hall, Suzanne Heath, Jeanne
McGuire, Elyse Rogers, John Tropman, Reatha Tweedie, and Steve Webster.
Future board meetings will undoubtedly be enriched by their input.
In addition, the MNA Board voiced a fond farewell to John Lore, Harry Bonner,
Monty Sharobeem, and Nheena Weyer Ittner. The involvement and support of
all four outgoing trustees has made MNA a stronger, more effective organization.
We made a special acknowledgement to John Lore for his commitment and
vision as one of the founding members ofthe Michigan Nonprofit Association.
His contribution provided MNA with the strong foundation it needed in our early
days .
FY 1999-2000 Budget
Staff presented the FY 1999-2000 Budget for Board approval. The Board
reviewed the five-year summary, individual department budgets, and a cash flow
analysis . Staff highlighted areas for fund development for the upcoming year.
The FY 1999-2000 budget passed unanimously.
Public Policy
Public Policy Chair Ed Blews presented the Public Policy Committee' s Goals
and Objectives for 1999-2000. The MNA Board endorsed the Goals and
objective unanimously.
As was anticipated there was an in-depth conversation regarding MNA 's position
towards living wage ordinances . There was discussion on both sides of the issue.

Working in partnership with Volunteer Centers ofMichigan and Michigan Campus Compact

�The MNA Board of Trustees approved the following motions in response to the
discussion :
•

The Michigan Nonprofit Association should convene the concerned parties
and facilitate a dialog that might lead to a consensus decision. (Approved
16-6-1)

•

The Michigan Nonprofit Association should encourage research on the
impact of the living wage ordinance on nonprofit organizations in
communities considering a living wage and report the findings at the oneyear review of the ordinance. (Approved 16-6-l) ·

•

The Michigan Nonprofit Association should work to include specific
consideration of the effects on nonprofit organizations where living wage
ordinances are being considered.
(Approved 16-6-1)

•

The Michigan Nonprofit Association should request that nonprofit
organizations be exempt from the scope of living wage ordinances until
research is completed on the financial impact to nonprofit organizations
(Approved 13-10).

MNA will work diligently to conduct research on the impact of these types of
ordinances on nonprofit organizations. After that research is completed, the
MNA Board of Trustees will review our official stance and modify it
accordingly.
Next Board Meeting

NTRODUCTION
This report presents the first-year findings of a two-year evaluation of the
Michigan Nonprofit Association (MNA). The evaluation, conducted by FERA
(Formative Evaluation Research Associates) of Ann Arbor, follows a plan developed
with the input of MNA staff and the organization's Board of Trustees.

The

evaluation will conclude in the early part of 2000.
This report begins with an overview of MNA and a brief description of the
programs which fall under its umbrella. It should be noted that while a number of
programs operate under the MNA umbrella, this report will focus primarily on MNA's
core operations. The next section of the report includes the purposes and questions
that have guided this evaluation. The third section describes the methods involved in
collecting the data. The MNA evaluation findings are the focus of the fourth section
of this report. The findings in this section are presented as a response to each of the
evaluation questions. The fifth section of the report summarizes the emerging lessons
and recommendations for improvement. The final section describes the next steps in
the MNA evaluation.
MNA BACKGROUND &amp; PROGRAM DESCRIPTIONS
The Michigan Nonprofit Association was established in 1990 as the Michigan
Nonprofit Forum. The organization's mission is to "promote the awareness and
effectiveness of Michigan's nonprofit sector, and to advance the cause of
volunteerism and philanthropy in the state." MNA serves over 400 members
throughout the state by conducting research, providing technical assistance and
offering a variety of discount programs on behalf of nonprofit agencies.
As MNA strives to achieve its mission while managing a variety of diverse
programs, the organization has focused its efforts on the following roles:
1.

To act as a convener, bringing together nonprofit leaders, as well as
the leadership of the government and the private sectors, to increase
understanding of the nonprofit sector, confront common issues and
concerns and promote collaboration;

MNA Year One Evaluation Report

June 1999

FERft

2.

To encourage voluntary giving and service;

3.

To disseminate information important to defining the sector—its scope
and values, meeting the management/technical needs of organizations
in the sector, and fostering communication and collaboration in the
public, private and nonprofit sectors;

4.

4. To take an active role in public policy that affects the nonprofit
sectors at large;

5.

To provide programs and services that enhance the sector by
strengthening organizational capacities.

As an organization MNA has experienced significant growth in recent years
through mergers and new program development. In 1994 MNA merged with the
Volunteer Centers of Michigan (VCM), an organization whose mission is to
strengthen existing Volunteer Centers, provide leadership in developing new
Volunteer Centers and promote and strengthen volunteerism statewide.

The

following year, MNA merged with the Michigan Campus Compact (MCC)—a
university-based organization comprised of 23 institutions of higher learning. MCC
focuses on the development of service-learning curriculum for its member institutions
and also promotes student participation in community service.
MNA is currently in the final year of a three-year VCM AmeriCorps program.
Through VCM AmeriCorps young people (K-12) will be engaged in after school
community service projects designed to strengthen communities and address
community problems. This program is administered by VCM under the direction of
a broad-based steering committee comprised of key nonprofit organizations such as
the Council of Michigan Foundations, K-12 Service Learning Center, Council on
Aging, and MCC.
Finally, public policy has also become a major program area within MNA,
particularly as it relates to assisting nonprofit member organizations in becoming more
educated on public policy issues. As part of this focus MNA, in partnership with the
Council of Michigan Foundations, has undertaken a two-year Michigan Public Policy

Initiative (MPPI) which is supported by the Kellogg Foundation. Through this
initiative MNA will produce an Issues Book, conduct a series of educational activities
and test the concept of a Public Policy Institute.

MNA CORE EVALUATION PURPOSES &amp; QUESTIONS
Purposes of the Evaluation
The MNA evaluation has two primary components—a formative evaluation
component and an outcomes based evaluation component. The formative or process
evaluation component has focused on identifying ways in which MNA can improve
and strengthen the organization and its programs. Year one of this two-year
evaluation emphasizes the formative aspects of the evaluation. Feedback on program
implementation, progress and success will enable MNA to implement changes which
enhance program or organizational effectiveness early on. The outcome or impact
evaluation component measures the extent to which MNA's organizational and

program goals have been achieved. This also considers any unintended consequences
or outcomes and their positive or negative impact.
MNA stakeholders have expressed a desire to have an evaluation that
incorporates both formative and outcome based components. As previously stated,
they have also indicated that the primary focus of this evaluation should be on MNA's
"core" functions. In terms of membership, for example, stakeholders are interested
in using the evaluation to learn more about such issues as whether or not the services
they provide are meeting the needs of the organization's members, how nonprofits
perceive MNA overall and what steps the organization must take to continue to
increase membership. The evaluation will also be helpful to MNA by providing
information that can be used to help position and focus the organization to sustain
MNA over the long-term.
MNA Evaluation Questions
The core evaluation questions were developed with the input of stakeholders
including MNA staff and trustees. These questions focus on program improvement
as well as outcomes. The evaluation questions were developed through discussions
with MNA staff and also through a series of exercises designed to identify
stakeholders' evaluation interests and priorities.
The evaluation questions are based upon MNA staff and Trustee input and
were also shaped by direction provided by the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, a major
supporter of the organization.
1.

To what extent is MNA recognized and valued by Michigan nonprofit
agencies? How is MNA perceived by its constituents across the state?
Geographically speaking, how well recognized or visible is MNA
across the state?

2.

What are the primary service needs of MNA's nonprofit members. To
what extent does MNA provide programs and services which meet
these needs? Do these needs vary based on agency size and type? If
so, how?

3.

To what extent has the MNA membership grown over the past threeto-five years? Why do organizations join MNA? Why don't some
organizations renew their memberships? How diverse is the
membership in terms of agency size, geographic location and agency
type?

4.

To what extent is MNA producing revenue that will make the core
operation self-sufficient? What strategies can/should MNA consider
implementing to become self-sustaining?

5.

To what extent has MCC become integrated into MNA? To what
extent has the merger strengthened or enhanced both organizations?

6.

To what extent has VCM become integrated into MNA? To what
extent has the merger strengthened or enhanced these organizations?

7.

To what extent is MNA perceived as a major player in the public
policy arena? To what extent is MNA perceived to be an effective
advocate for the nonprofit sector in Michigan?

METHODS
The evaluation questions presented above were answered drawing upon
multiple sources of information. Data sources include MNA staff, trustees, current
and former MNA nonprofit member agencies and others. Program records and other
MNA documents were utilized as were records and reports from MNA program areas
such as MCC.
A variety of data collection methods were utilized in an effort to obtain the
best information possible. Face-to-face surveys were conducted with six MNA staff
members. These interviews focused on a range of issues including overall perceptions
of the organization, perceived strengths and limitations, anticipated challenges and
suggestions for improvement. A survey of a sample of MNA's member agencies was
also conducted. Responses from the 58 MNA agencies participating in the survey
yielded valuable information relative to the impact and effectiveness of MNA's
services and opportunities available to its nonprofit members. This survey also
addressed opportunities for strengthening and improving the overall level and quality
of programs and services. Finally, a telephone survey of approximately 10 former
MNA member agencies was designed to help shed further light on how MNA can
better serve its members.

MNA CORE EVALUATION FINDINGS
As described above, the core evaluation findings presented in this section are
based upon multiple sources of data. However, because many of the evaluation
questions concern the MNA membership, the survey of MNA members is a primary
source of data for this report. The evaluation questions have been categorized and
the findings in this section are grouped accordingly. A summary of emerging lessons
and recommendations based upon the evaluation findings is presented later in this
report.

MNA Recognition and Perception
1.

To what extent is MNA recognized and valued by Michigan
nonprofit sector in Michigan? How is MNA perceived by its
constituents across the state? To what extent is MNA perceived
to be an effective advocate for the nonprofit sector in Michigan?
Geographically speaking, how well recognized or visible is MNA
across the state?

In a question related to MNA's recognition and visibility, six staff were asked
to describe how effectively they thought MNA has communicated its mission and
services to Michigan nonprofit agencies using a four-point scale ranging from very
effectively to not effectively at all.
Five staff members felt qualified to respond to the question. Four of the staff
indicated that MNA has accomplished this "somewhat effectively." Two staff
members indicated in their comments that they believed that MNA has done well in
terms of communicating the mission to its membership, but concede that they have
not been as successful in reaching non-member agencies.

One staff member

responded "not very effectively" to the question concerning MNA's efforts to
communicate its mission.
All six staff members responded to the question concerning MNA's
effectiveness in communicating its services to Michigan's nonprofit agencies. Their
responses indicate that one staff person thinks that MNA has been "very effective" in
communicating its services to nonprofit agencies while four staff members believe that
MNA has been "somewhat" effective. One staff person indicated that MNA has not
been very effective in this area. Again, the comments reflect a sense that MNA
communicates its services fairly well to its membership, but not as well to others.
While the responses of MNA staff were not unanimous on these questions, they do
indicate that staff is aware of the need to shore up its efforts to reach nonprofit
agencies outside beyond MNA's member base.

Turning now to the MNA membership for their overall perceptions of the
organization, the data shows that the overwhelming majority of the members view
MNA in a positive light.

An analysis of the comments provided by the 48

organizations responding to the question concerning their overall perception of MNA
indicates that approximately 70% of members perceive the organization very
favorably in terms of promoting Michigan's nonprofit sector and advancing the cause
of volunteerism and philanthropy in the state. Following are some examples of the
comments made by MNA member agencies:
* "They do an excellent job of meeting their mission."
4 "Effective, helpful, facilitates collaboration—responsive to members
needs."
* "Does a very good job—especially through VCM."
* "Continues to gain ground as a preeminent spokesman for the sector.
Increased public policy focus will remain a linchpin for future success."
* "Good work—helpful to give a political voice to the nonprofit sector."
4 "Overall, our agency has been impressed with MNA."
4 "I believe MNA is actively working toward its mission. I have seen press
releases regarding MNA, and evidence of MNA's effect on increasing
awareness about the work of nonprofits."
* "Well organized, focused."
Six agencies, or roughly 13% of agencies responding to the question on
overall perception expressed negative perceptions of MNA A few examples of these
perceptions are provided below:
4 "MNA is not effective in comparison to its peers. It is not visible. Its
peers are very visible, very active— I cannot say the same of MNA."
* "Not a strong resource for volunteer programs."
4 "My perception is not a particularly good one. There is too much
emphasis on volunteerism and not enough on strengthening nonprofits in
other ways."
Five agencies—approximately 10% of those responding—indicated that they
did not feel qualified to make an assessment of MNA as an organization because they

are new members. The remaining three organizations (6%) offered either neutral or
mixed perceptions of MNA such as, "Mission is worthy, but I don't feel much
connection with other nonprofit organizations and what they are 'up to' and about."
The balance of the comments support the fact that most of the member
agencies have very positive perceptions of MNA as an advocate for the nonprofit
sector in Michigan. The following chart illustrates members' perceptions of MNA's
effectiveness as an advocate for nonprofits. Members were asked to describe MNA's
effectiveness as a nonprofit advocate using a five-point scale ranging from extremely
effective to not at all effective.

The comments also indicate that MNA's role and focus are issues for some
agencies. MNA's support of volunteer programs, for example, is perceived as
excessive by some agencies and too little by others. Issues such as this underscore the
reality that—in the eyes of its members, MNA cannot be all things to all nonprofit
agencies, but the organization can advocate for and support the nonprofit sector very
effectively.
Programs and Services
2.

What are the primary service needs of MNA's nonprofit
members? To what extent does MNA provide programs and

June 1999

Page 9

�Formative Evaluation Research Associates

FERft

services which meet these needs? Do these needs vary based on
agency size and type? If so, how?
To help answer these questions FERA first asked MNA staff about the types
of services, if any, that the organization should provide to its member agencies which
are not currently offered. While two staff members felt that this was an area in which
they were not particularly knowledgeable, the remaining four staff persons described
a range of services that MNA might consider offering its members. Their responses
can be grouped into the following categories:
1. Expanded Technical Assistance: MNA's technical assistance to member
agencies should include technical assistance in specific areas such as
technology (computer training, website training, etc.) volunteer
management and legal issues. It was also suggested that technical
assistance in the area of fund development could be strengthened.
2. Expanded Public Policy Efforts. MNA should be more active and
involved — tracking legislation, educating members on legislation and
advocating on their behalf.
3. Nonprofit Support: An increased focus on nonprofit agency needs, now
that VCM and MCC affiliates are doing well, would be timely. It was also
suggested that MNA consider providing additional mini-grants to member
agencies.
4. Increased Publications: MNA should develop additional publications to
assist its members in a wide range of areas (e.g. how to start a nonprofit,
etc.). It was further suggested that a nonprofit library or resource center
which also serves as a clearinghouse for these and other publications
would be of benefit to the membership.
5. Enhanced Financial Services: Disability insurance for the officers of
member agencies, workers' compensation insurance and other services
can be offered to further enhance the financial benefits package available
to MNA members.
As part of the MNA member survey, agencies were asked directly whether or
not MNA's technical assistance services were meeting the needs of their organization.
While 17 of the agencies surveyed indicated that this question was "not applicable"
to their organization, 50% of the agencies for whom this was a relevant question
indicated that yes, MNA's technical assistance services were meeting their needs.
Approximately 36% of those surveyed indicated that their agencies' needs were being

June 1999

Page 10

�Formative Evaluation Research Associates

FERft

met "partially or somewhat". The remaining 14%, however, responded that their
agencies technical assistance needs were not being met.
Respondents who did not answer "yes" to this question were asked to explain
their reasons for not being fully satisfied with MNA's technical assistance services.
The comments provided by 25 respondents can be grouped into several categories.
For example, as illustrated below approximately 24% of the comments indicate that
many of MNA's member agencies are not familiar with the technical services
available.
4 "I don't know what is available."
4 "What can you do for us?"
4 "Not even aware of what they are."
4 "What technical assistance?"
An equal proportion of those responding (24%) indicated that their agencies
either have never used or simply do not need the technical assistance services available
through MNA.
4 "(We) use our national office for technical assistance."
* "Haven't taken advantage of them."
4 "Not sure, we haven't used it much except for reading the mailings."
* "Have not utilized technical assistance services."
Another group of respondents— again 24% — indicated that their agencies
would like to see more programs and services offered.
* "Would like to see more training for managers."
4 "Would like a booklet of all nonprofits in the state of Michigan—
contacts, addresses, contact numbers. No one printed this to our
knowledge."
4 "Need someone to take place of Cooley Clinic articles."
4 "Possibly offer more (i.e. video rentals on NPO topics)."

MNA Year One Evaluation Report

June 1999

Page 11

�Formative Evaluation Research Associates

FERft

Interestingly, a significant portion of those providing additional comments
(20%) perceive that MNA's services do not apply to their agencies.
4 "Our TA needs are specific to technology, resource development and
marketing."
4 "We are a foundation; MNA services don't apply too directly to us, but
we appreciate their efforts for the sector."
4 "It is difficult for small organizations to get tapped into because most
programs serve large well established groups like Salvation Army,
Hospitals or Universities."
4 "Many services are admirable, but are most applicable to the smaller
nonprofit associations. Good service for those who need."
The remaining 8% of respondents indicated that they did not feel qualified or
familiar enough with MNA to comment further. However, the comments presented
here illustrate that while nearly 50% of agencies describe MNA's technical assistance
services as falling short to some extent, a good deal of the problem appears to be
related to marketing. A significant portion of member agencies appear to be either
unfamiliar with the services available or believe that the services are not meant for
organizations such as theirs.
Finally, when asked about other services, if any, they would like to see MNA
provide to member agencies, survey respondents offered a number of suggestions in
addition to those described above. These suggestions include:
4 "More literature, small conferences in different regions of out state to
encourage northern areas to get involved."
4 "More workshops and conferences in Northern Michigan."
4 "Directory of agencies which reflects: Name, Mission, Programs, Program
Content, Service Market, etc."
4 "Coordinator for access and use of telecommunications technology among
members (e-mail, web sites, voice mail, distance learning)."
4 "Help us find salary money!"
4 "1. Lobby on our behalf. 2. Sponsor training throughout the state on
many topics (i.e. employment law, board training, etc.). 3. Have an annual
event with some real substance."

* "Trends in the foundation community— Unless you are part of that group,
you have a large gap in your knowledge about the independent sector.
The Chronicle of Philanthropy reports on nationwide trends, but we need
our inside voice on CMF."
* "Office in Detroit."
* "Clearinghouse for grant opportunities."
MNA Membership
3.

To what extent has the MNA membership grown over the past
three-to-five years? Why do organizations join MNA? Why
don't some organizations renew their memberships? How diverse
is the membership in terms of agency size, geographic location
and agency type?

The answers to these questions are drawn from the insights from MNA staff
and feedback from member agencies. Interviews with MNA staff included several
questions related to the organization's membership base, recruitment and retainment.
Similarly, nonprofit member agencies were asked about their primary reasons for
becoming a member of MNA and whether or not their organizations expected to
renew their memberships. Data was also collected from a sample of former MNA
member agencies who chose not to renew their memberships.
In terms of satisfaction with the diversity of the membership base, for
example, MNA staff were asked to rank their overall level of satisfaction on a fourpoint scale that ranged from "very satisfied" to "not at all satisfied".

All six staff

persons interviewed unanimously agreed that they were "somewhat satisfied" with the
diversity of MNA's membership. Further, five staff persons offered reasons for lower
participation rates among certain segments of the nonprofit community. These
reasons are summarized below:
4 Lack of Clear Identity/Image: In the eyes of MNA staff, the number one
reason for lower participation rates among certain segments of the
nonprofit community has to do with nonprofit agencies' lack of familiarity
with MNA and the services it provides to member organizations. As one
staff person stated, "They don't know what we're all about. They just
don't really understand what we can do for them." Another explained, "If
they don't know who we are and the value of membership, they probably

June 1999

Page 13

�Formative Evaluation Research Associates

FERA

won't join.'
4 Accessibility: Another explanation for lower participation rates among
some segments of the population concerns accessibility. As a Lansingbased organization, agencies in northern and western Michigan often do
not perceive MNA to be as accessible as they would like. "They don't
know about us or think we have something to offer them." The
accessibility issue is exacerbated by the fact that most of the training is
offered in southeastern Michigan which is difficult for many of the smaller,
rural organizations. The lack of personal involvement in MNA through
workshops and conferences most likely is a contributing factor to lower
participation rates among this segment of the nonprofit community.
4 Agency Size: Some MNA staff also suggested that agency size can be a
barrier to reaching certain segments of the nonprofit community.
According to staff, many of the organizations that do not participate are
small and lack the time and other resources to do other things. Personal
contact through conferences and workshops are considered important
ways to familiarize organizations with MNA, but too often smaller
agencies cannot participate in these, "and it's tough to bring in
organizations that don't."
MNA staff were also questioned about what they perceived to be the greatest
barriers in both recruiting and retaining new members. In terms of recruitment,
according to staff the overriding barrier appears to be limited MNA resources for new
member recruitment. The most effective outreach calls for a personal contact.
However, recruitment efforts are somewhat limited with only one staff person
available for outreach activities. Some staff also felt that services, to some degree,
have an impact on recruitment. When new services are added, typically there is an
increase in membership. According to one staff person MNA "needs to become like
a chamber of commerce for nonprofits."
Barriers to retaining members were not perceived to be a significant area of
concern by MNA staff because of the relatively high retention rate of members. In
their comments on membership retention, three issues surfaced. First, MNA must not
only continue to offer a range of quality programs and services to its members, but
continue to develop new programs and services which meet their changing needs as
well. Second, some staff feel that perhaps MNA has not kept existing members
feeling connected and part of the MNA "family" as much as it should. It has been

MNA Year One Evaluation Report

June 1999

Page 14

�Formative Evaluation Research Associates

FERft

suggested that personal contact with each member at some point each year is needed
to help keep members connected. Finally, the high turnover of executive directors in
the nonprofit sector can also become a barrier to retaining members. The new
executive directors may not be familiar with MNA and the benefits of membership,
and therefore may simply allow the membership to lapse.
As previously stated, MNA's member organizations were also asked for their
input on the value of membership to nonprofit agencies.

Specifically, member

agencies were asked to identify their organization's primary reason for becoming a
member of MNA. The responses to this question are as follows:
Reason for Membership of MNA
N=50
12 (24%)
26 (52%)
0 (0%)
12 (24%)

Technical assistance to member agencies
MNA's role as an advocate for nonprofit agencies
Discount/savings programs for member agencies
Other

As the data indicates, slightly more than 50% of respondents value MNA's
role as an advocate for nonprofit agencies as the number one reason for becoming a
member. Approximately 24% or respondents consider MNA's technical assistance
to nonprofits as the primary reason for becoming a member. The remaining 24%
identified a range of other reasons for joining, nearly all of which belong to one of the
following categories:
* Access to Information. MNA provides information on topics of interest
to the nonprofit sector which is very important its member agencies. The
majority of survey respondents who listed "other" reasons for becoming
a member consider the information provided by MNA to be the most
important reason. Information on grant opportunities for nonprofit
organizations, in particular, is very important to members.
4 Training/Conferences/Educational Opportunities. MNA's training,
seminars and other educational opportunities are very important to its
members as well. Training in the area of grant writing, for example, was
considered very useful.
4 Networking Opportunities. MNA member agencies also value the
opportunity to meet and network with other nonprofit organizations, and

MNA Year One Evaluation Report

June 1999

Page 15

�Formative Evaluation Research Associates

FERft

consider this the most important reason for becoming a member.
In an effort to better gauge the outlook for MNA in terms of membership
retention, member agencies were asked whether or not they expected that their
organizations would remain members of MNA for at least the next three years. The
overwhelming majority (70%) of members responding to this question indicated that
yes, they did expect to remain members of MNA. Another 26% of members surveyed
selected "maybe/don't know" as their response to this question. The remaining 4%
indicated that they did not expect their organization to renew its membership. The
reasons cited by member agencies for either selecting "no" or "maybe/don't know"
fall primarily into one of two categories as follows:
* Benefit/Value of Membership: A number of MNA members do not clearly
see the value of membership to their organizations. Some believe that the
cost of membership outweighs the benefits. As one member stated, "Not
enough 'bang for the buck'—I expected much more."
* Cost. For other nonprofit agencies the decision of whether or not to renew
their memberships will rest solely on organizational finances. Many
smaller organizations are more strapped financially and find MNA's
membership fees less affordable than larger nonprofits. "Cost is large for
our nonprofit. We struggle with affording the fees."
Finally, input from former MNA member organizations who did not renew
their memberships also helps to shed light on this topic. As indicated earlier in this
report, a telephone survey of 10 former MNA member agencies was conducted in an
effort to better understand why these agencies, and presumably others like them, did
not renew their memberships. Former MNA member agencies were asked a series of
questions concerning their experiences as member organizations.

When asked why their organizations had joined MNA, for example, half of the
survey respondents indicated that they did not know. In many instances the decisions
were made by a previous agency director and the current executive director was not
aware of the rationale for joining MNA. Others offered several reasons why their
organizations joined MNA including:

4 To be a part of a community of organizations
4 To obtain legal assistance and retirement information for agency
employees
4 For information purposes— to keep the agency abreast on issues affecting
the nonprofit community
Survey respondents also indicated why they believed that their organizations
chose not to renew their MNA memberships. Three respondents indicated that they
either did not know why the memberships were not renewed or were not aware that
they had even expired. Other responses to this question were varied.

In an effort to learn more about the perceptions of former MNA member
agencies, those surveyed were asked to indicate whether or not there were services
important to their organizations which were not available through MNA.
Approximately one-half of the survey respondents could not think of any 'missing
services'. The balance of respondents offered the following:
4 "Information for officers is lacking."
4 "We expected regular meetings, a list of involved organizations and
regular communications."
4 "All of the services already exist in the marketplace...MNA duplicates, not
creates."

Finally, former MNA member organizations were asked about the conditions
under which they would consider renewing their memberships and also asked to offer
any suggestions for making MNA membership more valuable to nonprofit agencies,

respondents suggested that their organizations might consider renewing their
memberships if they were better educated on MNA and the benefits of membership.
For other agencies barriers to renewing their MNA memberships include the cost,
services provided and one organization's perception that MNA focuses on the large
nonprofits rather than smaller agencies.
Self Sufficiency and Sustainability
4.

To what extent is MNA producing revenue that will make the
core operation self-sufficient? What strategies can/should MNA
consider implementing to become self sustaining?

In seeking answers to these questions, FERA turned to MNA staff. First,
interviews with staff indicate that in terms of generating revenue, MNA's membership
has increased at a steady pace over the past two years, resulting in increased revenues
through the membership dues. These revenues should continue to increase as MNA
expands its membership base.
However, in order to produce revenue at a level which will make the core
operation self-sufficient, MNA must explore revenue generating opportunities beyond
collecting membership dues. One strategy suggested by several MNA staff members
is to develop revenue centers such as training, conferences and technical assistance.
In developing additional fee-for-service opportunities in these areas MNA can
significantly augment the revenues generated through membership dues and, over
time, decrease the Association's reliance on grants and other support for core
operations.
MNA also plans to purchase an office building which will not only house the
Association's operations, but will include office space which can be leased to other

FBft

agencies as well— generating a revenue stream from the rented space. MNA is also
exploring the possibility of developing an operations endowment for the Association.
The endowment, together with revenue generated through other avenues, will help
to ensure MNA's long-term fiscal stability and sustainability.
There are, of course, potential barriers to achieving fiscal stability.

For

example, the relatively small universe of potential flinders is perceived to be a
significant barrier to achieving financial stability by several members of the MNA
staff.

Support for associations or endowments is a low priority for most

foundations—which creates a challenge for MNA. Limited resources both in terms
of time and staff curtails the extent to which MNA can actively pursue opportunities
such as purchasing and renovating an office building or developing an endowment.
Third, some members of the MNA staff perceive the Association's relative youth as
an organization to be a potential barrier to achieving financial stability. As a young
organization MNA lacks the track record of other organizations with more history.
Finally, MNA's involvement in a wide range of activities is perceived by some to be
a hindrance to achieving financial stability. With multiple irons in the fire, it can be
difficult to maintain the focus required to reach financial goals.
Organizational Structure
5. To what extent have the Michigan Campus Compact (MCC) and the
Volunteer Center of Michigan (VCM ) become integrated into
MNA? To what extent have these mergers strengthened or enhanced
these organizations?
MNA staff generally acknowledges that initially the 1995 merger between
MCC and MNA presented its share of challenges in terms of "fit", particularly for
MCC. In the beginning, many of the MCC affiliates perceived the merger as MNA
saving MCC. Despite the merger, the two organizations were viewed as separate
entities by many. Over time, however, the relationship between MCC and MNA
appears to have improved dramatically according to staff. As one staff person
expressed, "It now feels like everyone's on the same page". Staff also recognizes the

MNA Year One Evaluation Report

June 1999

Page 19

�Formative Evaluation Research Associates

FBft

benefits of having MCC under MNA's umbrella from both a financial and
administrative standpoint. The continuing challenge for MCC appears to be balancing
the tension between learning how to work together, while maintaining their own
identity.
Staff expressed similar views in terms of the fit between VCM and MNA.
The relationship between VCM and MNA was described by one staff person as "very
volatile" initially—primarily due to issues around trust. The merger is now viewed
in positive terms and MNA is perceived as a strong supporter of VCM. Of course,
as with any situation there remains room for improvement. For example, while the
merger has strengthened VCM's financial position considerably, the Volunteer
Centers do not generate very much revenue. This presents an opportunity for VCM
to play a larger financial role within MNA. Another area to explore further is the
newly discovered perception among Volunteer Centers that MNA initiatives do not
support them to a great extent and that VCM staff focuses more on MNA than VCM.
This may be a function of insufficient communication and not fully understanding
how the two organizations "fit". However, more Volunteer Centers are beginning to
take advantage of MNA's member benefits and this should help to change this
perception.
EMERGING LESSONS &amp; RECOMMENDATIONS
It would be premature to draw conclusions about MNA at this point in the
evaluation. However, an analysis of the data collected does point to areas in which
MNA can begin to learn from the information provided while the evaluation of the
Association continues.

Following are some of the emerging lessons and

recommendations:
4 MNA should continue to keep abreast of issues relating to the role of
VCM within the Association. This will allow MNA to proactively and
effectively address any issues arising from the tension between
organizations which feel that MNA focuses too many resources on
volunteerism rather than social and human services, and vice versa.

* MNA member agencies appreciate the benefits of membership and place

a particularly high value on the information they receive from the
Association. MNA should continue to keep as a priority, providing its
member organizations with timely information on issues affecting
Michigan's nonprofit community. This will also help MNA to keep a
spotlight on the Association's efforts as an advocate for nonprofit
organizations— the primary reason that many organizations have joined
MNA.
MNA might consider developing a mechanism for keeping its finger on the
pulse of its member agencies by obtaining regular feedback from these
agencies, perhaps on an annual basis. This will help the Association to
respond more readily to the interests and needs of all MNA member
agencies.
Consider developing more targeted technical assistance for member
agencies. The technical assistance can be targeted specifically to both
large and small nonprofit agencies as well as specific types of agencies.
This will enable MNA to become more responsive to the needs of all its
member agencies by offering more technical assistance tailored to specific
stakeholder groups within the Association.
MNA should consider exploring opportunities for enhancing the
Association's marketing, outreach and promotional activities. While the
majority of MNA's members are well informed of the benefits of
membership, other nonprofit agencies have not been sufficiently educated
on the value becoming a member.
As MNA expands its scope and reach by taking on new programs, there
is an inherent risk of losing sight of the Association's mission and focus.
Strategic planning involving a diverse group of MNA stakeholders might
be useful at this point. Issues around program focus and fund
development priorities, for example, should be fully assessed in order for
MNA to continue to move the Association toward long-term financial
stability.
MNA has an opportunity to become more responsive to Michigan's
nonprofit community by learning more about its constituents. A review
of the Association's data base can help MNA to learn more about how the
information collected on its membership can be useful in moving MNA
forward. For example, information can be systematically compiled to
better illustrate who is being served, in which communities and through
which types of services. This information will be invaluable as MNA
expands and reaches out to new constituents without losing the support
of existing members.

NEXT STEPS
FERA will continue to conduct the evaluation throughout 1999. Interviews
with MNA staff, Board members and other stakeholders will be conducted in an effort
to begin to draw some conclusions about how the Association can be strengthened
to serve nonprofit agencies in years to come. Also, FERA is making an effort to
develop a relatively simple process of mapping MNA's member agencies so that the
Association can learn more about its membership base. The final evaluation report
will be completed early in the year 2000.

1.

Welcome and Call to Order: The meeting was called to order by chair A Rosewarne at
10:20 a.m.

2.

Review of Minutes: The minutes of the December 8, 1998 meeting were approved as
distributed.

3.

Chair's Report: A. Rosewarne noted that the new dues increase is being implemented
now She also noted that the strategic fund is also currently being implemented A.
Rosewarne went on to urge all to make their yearly commitment in order to keep S. Singh
advised of available resources. It was suggested that MNA look into asking
organizational heads to make personal donations. Also discussed were the preliminary
findings of the Romney Memorial committee. J. Rapanos suggested inviting a member of
the Arts Council to be on the committee. There was brief discussion regarding how to
acknowledge those organizations who participate at a leadership level with MNA's
strategic fund.

4.

President's Report: S Singh also noted that the new dues structure is in place. In
addition, he advised that the Director of Nonprofit Outreach position should be filled by
the end of March

5.

Finance Report: D. Seaman suggested a new check-signing policy in order to avoid
delays similar to the ones that occurred in obtaining authorized signatures for the check to
pay Danny Glover's speaking fee. He advised that MNA broaden the capabilities of the
staff to make these transactions After discussion, it was decided that the following
guidelines regarding check signatures will be in place as of March 16, 1999:

�Check Amount
$
0.00
$ 5,000.00 $ 15,000.00+

$ 5,000.00
$14,999.00

New Procedure
Requires only the signature of the President
Requires signatures of two MNA staff members
authorized by the Board
Requires signatures of two MNA staff members
authorized by the Board plus approval of a
member of the Executive Committee

D Seaman went on to say that the financial position remains strong and stable
S. Singh clarified the Statement of Revenue and Expenses, explaining that many of the
surpluses shown are due to the early receipt of grants and this will balance out in the
coming months The Membership dues for VCM and MCC are behind due to the fact that
some members haven't paid yet A clearer picture of MNA's financial situation will be
available after the Grantmakers/Grantseekers, when MNA members pay their annual dues
The excess shown in the Americorps budget will be corrected to reflect the fact that the
program has been scaled back. Contract services have dramatically decreased because
staff has taken over many of the functions that were proposed to be contracted out. MNA
has also experienced large savings in office, meeting, and travel expenses. However,
miscellaneous expenses have been greater than expected due to job search related
expenses that were not budgeted for
6

MCC Report: A. Stone reported that the University of Michigan at Dearborn recently
joined MCC It was also announced that Amy Smitter is the new manager for MCC In
addition, it was noted that Dr David Cooper with MSU won the Thomas Ehrlich Faculty
Award for Service-Learning Also highlighted was the upcoming Student Recognition
Ceremony on 4/10/99
Currently, MCC is in the process of nominating members for leadership roles for MCC's
Council of Presidents. MCC has given out over $31,000 this year in Venture grants. The
Fetzer grant ended officially in December, yet MCC recently received word that an
additional $25,000 disbursement was approved in order to support the development of a
published monograph The new grant program, the Student Community Action Fund,
began disbursing grants to students in January.
Coming events include the annual Service Leadership Camp (9/17/99 - 9/19/99), the
Faculty Institute on Service-Learning (11/12/99), and the Summer Planning Institute (date
to be determined)

7

Nonprofit Outreach Report: J Rapanos reported that membership is at an all-time high.
A report will be available in June detailing the actual increases The initiative to create a
student membership category offering a discounted rate of $25 passed unanimously by the
Board

Filename Q:\WTNWORD\COMMITTE\MNA BOARDVMINUTES 03 16 99 MNA BOARD MTG.DOC

�The initiative to offer initial membership discounts to statewide groups that have their
entire membership join MNA invited much discussion. It was questioned if government
agencies (like FIA) can be members according to MNA's bi-laws. Jeff Taylor stated that
for-profit institutions are allowed to join per the bi-laws; however, they are not allowed to
vote Three specific concerns were noted:
1)
2)
3)

Will graduated increases exist? At what rate?
What will be the effect if not all of the members renew one year later9
Will the standards we set up now for FIA apply to future for-profit
members? Will the discount remain the same?

R. Collier moved that MNA offer a discount to FIA for affiliate membership. The motion
passed with one dissent (Sr. M. Kostielney).
Lastly, the Nonprofit Outreach committee reported that grant writing and fund
development training sessions have been set for the spring sessions
Public Policy Report: E. Blews reported that the goals outlined in Section I-A of the
Public Policy Committee section will be adopted at the 5/7/99 meeting. Also noted was
MNA's intent to neutrally inform its members of the Gaming Commission's efforts. It
was suggested that MNA create a standing policy similar to the one outlined for the Public
Policy Committee in order to address a wide realm of issues.
The "living wage ordinance" was discussed. This ordinance requires all employers to pay
$8.23/hr with healthcare benefits, or $10.23/hr without healthcare benefits. This will
have a highly detrimental impact on nonprofits. E. Blews put forth an initiative requesting
MNA to empower Sam to educate the community regarding the effects of the "living
wage ordinance," yet it was suggested he refrain from forcefully pushing for the
exemption of nonprofits in order to maintain a good public image. The motion was passed
unanimously by the Board. Sr. M. Kostielney suggested that we urge a nonprofit
exemption of the "living wage ordinance" that recommends voluntary compliance.
VCM Report: S. Singh announced that the VCM Annual Retreat will take place March
23-24 at the Kellogg Center in East Lansing Also noted was the receipt of a $25,000
grant from the Michigan Community Service Commission to conduct two series of
regional trainings In addition, the George W Romney Fund mini-grant applications are in
the final review process
The Planning Committee volunteers for SuperConference 2000 are in the confirmation
process. The first meeting will be April 12, 1999.
ConnectMichigan is well underway. The next series of billboards will promote National
Volunteer Week, April 18-24, 1999. A Bid for Service was distributed on March 5, 1999

�Michigan Nonprofit Association
Board of Trustees Meeting
Nonprofit Outreach Report
March 16, 1999

IMembership Update
Since our last report in March, MNA' s membership has increased to an all time high of 595 . We
are confident that we will break the 600 hundred mark by the end of the month. At the March
meeting, the MNA Board of Trustees requested that the membership committee review the MNA
Bylaws to see if they adequately address the growing diversity of the organization. After an
intensive review, the membership committee unanimously reaffirmed the current definition of
membership. The committee felt the current definition adequately defined organizational
members and affiliate members.
(2) Membership. The Membership or Members shall consist of ORGANIZATIONAL
MEMBERS and AFFILIATE MEMBERS.
ORGANIZATIONAL MEMBERS shall be any IRS designated nonprofit
organization that (a) has a principal or branch office in Michigan; (b) makes
application and receives approval of that application by the Board of
Trustees; and (c) makes an annual contribution to the corporation, the
amount of which is in accordance with the criteria established by the Board

parameters for group membership. After considerable discussion, the committee decided there
were too many variables for an effective policy to be developed. The committee recommends that
the staff be authorized to develop group membership opportunities for review and approval by the

�membership committee and MNA Board of Trustees on a case by case basis.

Four local organizations received Romney Fund mini-grants in the 1998-99 grantmaking cycle. Those
organizations are:
./ Albion Volunteer Service Organization- $7,500
Funds will support part-time staff and related training for the Church- Family Partnership. The
Partnership links local church volunteer teams with persons struggling with poverty, disability,
isolation or other serious life problems. Volunteers provide friendship, support and assistance.
Positive relationships are established among diverse community constituents, and real community
needs are met.
./ Literacy Volunteers ofAmerica - Capital Area Literacy Coalition - $5,650
Funds will support the Growing Readers program, a volunteer driven literacy curriculum designed
to help expand children 's language and concepts by tying activities to popular children' s books.
Growing Readers has been field-tested, and is specially designed to reach populations that are not
currently being served by programs such as Head Start.
./ Macomb County Rotating Emergency Shelter Team (MCRESI') - $6,000
Funds will support a part-time recruiter that will develop and implement a procedure for contacting
Churches in Macomb County to provide shelter for the homeless population of the county. Through
the expansion ofthe partnership, the main goals of the recruiter will be to expand the number of
shelter weeks and increase the number of homeless sheltered .
./ Recuperation Center - $5,100
This is a demonstration project addressing an unmet need of medically fragile homeless individuals.
The project utilizes volunteers as Support Coordinators to assist clients with chronic conditions to
establish a suitable lifestyle that is conducive to maintaining their health and independence. The
project is a joint effort of Spectrum Health, area Managed Care organizations and The Recuperation
Center.

•

To date, 15 volunteer centers have completed their Romney Endowment process and have received their
full $25,000 match grants . An additional thirteen centers are in the process of conducting their local

The tenth anniversary celebration of the Grantmakers-Grantseekers conference was a
terrific success. This year' s Planning Committee did an outstanding job designing a
conference that met the needs of our nonprofit colleagues across the state. The following
information highlights this year' s conference activities.
Conference Structure: This year's conference format was re-designed and well
received by attendees. Traditionally, the conference had been a one-day event, featuring
a keynote speaker and approximately ten breakout sessions. This year, the planning
committee developed a two-day conference with five conference tracks offering 38
breakout sessions and four keynote speakers.
Attendance: We are very pleased to have met our attendance goals for GrantmakersGrantseekers 1999. More than 600 people attended this year's conference- this included
543 paid registrations, speakers, staff and volunteers- almost double from the last two
Grantmakers-Grantseekers conferences.
Featured Speakers: The line-up of speakers for this year' s conference was outstanding:
Michigan Attorney General Jennifer Granholm; Bob Danzig, former CEO ofHearst
Newspapers; Sara Melendez, president oflndependent Sector; and Harry Belafonte.
Both Harry Belafonte and Bob Danzig received rave reviews. Danny Glover was
originally booked to present the closing keynote address, however due to a film schedule
conflict he cancelled on us 30 days from the conference. Mr. Belafonte ' s address was
one ofthe finest we have ever experienced in the Grantmakers-Grantseekers history.
Breakout Sessions: This year's conference featured five conference tracks: fund
development, public policy, marketing, media and technology, nonprofit management
and professional development. There were 38 workshop sessions offered in total - with
more than 90 presenters and panelists. Workshops were received through a "Call for
Presenter" application process and through the assistance of the planning committee. All
of the sessions received high evaluations marks, however attendees requested that we cut
back on the variety of workshops and repeat some of the most popular sessionsparticularly within the fund development track.
Governor's Service Awards Dinner: For the fifth year in a row, MNA co-sponsored
the Governor' s Service Awards Dinner with the Michigan Community Service
Commission. The dinner is an enjoyable evening that showcases Michigan' s Volunteers.
Overall attendance for this year' s dinner was 700.

�Russell G. Mawby Award : Art Angood, chairman of the Miller Foundation, was the
1999 Russell G. Mawby Award winner. Thank you to MNA trustees, Monte Sharobeem,
Debbie Mikula, and Nheena Weyer Ittner for serving on the Mawby Award Selection
Committee.
Location: For the first time in six years, Grantmakers-Grantseekers 1999 was hosted in
the Southeastern Michigan area at the No vi Hilton Hotel. The majority of nonprofits are
located in this area. Moving the conference allowed us to increase our attendance and
outreach activities with these organizations.
Evaluations : Evaluations and feedback from this year' s event were excellent. The
conference received an overall evaluation score of 4.2 on a scale of 1-5, with 5 being the
highest.

Michigan Foundations (CMF) to join this committee.
The Board then proceeded to discuss the Strategic Alliance between MNA
(including MCC and VCM) and the Michigan Community Service Commission
(MCSC). An overview of each organization was provided. along with the history
of the development of this idea. The MNA Board ofTrustees discussed this idea
e:\.'tensively. A motion was introduced and approved to support the concept of the
plan and direct staff to continue the dialogue between MNA and MCSC .
Following the MNA Board meeting. the plan was presented to the MCSC Board of
Commissioners and the concept of the proposal was unanimously approved. The
MCSC Board of Commissioners also requested that MCSC staff continue their
dialogue and discussion with MNA regarding this proposal. More information will
be provided at the ne:\.1 MNA Board meeting. along with an update of progress
made between now and then.

Public Policy
Public Policy Chair Ed Blews welcomed Tom Mathieu to the Public Policy
Committee. The Committee· s recommendations were then provided to the Board.
including:
l)

The Public Policy Committee recommended that the MNA Board
ofTrustees endorse HB 4112 . The Board passed this
recommendation unanimous! _.

2)

The Public Policy Committee recommended that MNA staff
postpone further expenditure of time and resources on research of
the impact of the Living Wage Ordinance on nonprofits because of
the introduction ofHB 4766 and HB 4777 . The need for continued
research can be reevaluated after these bills are resolved in the fall
legislation . The Board passed this recommendation unanimously.

3)

The Public Policy Committee recommended that the MNA Board
of Trustees adopt an official opposing stance to HB 4777 . The
Board passed this recommendation unanimously.

4)

The Public Policy Committee recommended that MNA reaffirm its
position to endorse charitable tax provisions while abstaining from
adopting an official position regarding HB 4729 and 4730 due to
some concern regarding the scope of these bills. No position was
taken by the Board.

Strategies

What MNA Could Do

Considerations/Costs

Staff makes telephones calls
to new members within 2
months to be sure they are
receiving mailings and to
answer questions.

MNA Staff will make calls to
all new members beginning
with the August enrollments.

Minimal staff time involved

Staff makes calls to anyone
that made a request for
member information but did
not join.

Approximately 15 new
member packets are sent per
month-more at conference
time. Follow-up calls will
start in September.

Minimal staff time involved

Staff telephones
nonmembers that have
requested information to
encourage them to become
members.

Approximately 25
nonmember requests for
information are handled per
month. Follow-up calls will
begin in September.

Approximately 2-4 hours of
staff time per month would
need to be allotted.

Staff makes random phone
calls to members to be sure
they receive mailings and to
see if they have concerns or
needs that the organization
could address.

MNA staff could make
random membership calls
three to four times per year.

Minimal staff time involved

Board establishes member
recruitment goals.

See attachment "Board Goal"
modified from North Carolina
Center for Nonprofit.

Time and commitment of
board members

Board members send letters
to nonmember colleagues,
friends and contacts to
encourage them to join the
organization .

MNA could provide a sample
letter to be generated on
board member's letterhead or
personal stationary.

Time, commitment, and office
supplies from board
members.

MNA could provide lists of
members by county, zip
code, or type of organization
(i.e. human services, arts,
etc.)

Minimal staff time involved.

MNA could label and mail
board member's letters.

Postage and minimal staff
time involved.

�Membership Strategies Borrowed From Other State Associations
What MNA Could Do

Considerations/Costs

Board members, staff or
membership committee
makes telephone calls to
executive diredors of nonrenewing organizations.

Staff could use assistance
with this. Currently there are
near1y 80 organizations that
have been invoiced for the 3rd
time. A Jist of non-renewals
is attached.

Time, commitment and long
distance phone calls.

A bright "Last Issue" sticker is
attached to newsletter after
3rd invoice is mailed.

Stickers were used on
September newsletters for
non-renewals.

Cost of stickers

A "New Members" session is
held at conferences to
acquaint organizations with
staff and services.

Something we might want to
consider.

Does need exist?

"Compliments of MNA" stamp
is used on any informational
document or newsletter that
is mailed or given to
nonmembers.

The stamp has been ordered .

Cost of stamp

Renewal notices are tied to
services used (i.e. insurance,
discounted publications,
conferences, etc.)

The number of member
services needs to be
expanded for this to be
effective. Under
consideration are a nonprofit
magazine subscription offer,
director and officer liability
insurance, and more.

Staff time for planning and
monitoring services once
they are in place.

Strategies

Some services like director
and officer liability insurance
could generate additional
revenue.

�I will be willing to contact the organizations that I have checked or highlighted. I will wait
for MNA to mail information about the organization and MNA membership information.

MNA Recognition and Perception -To what extent is MNA recognized
and valued by Michigan's nonprofit sector? How is MNA perceived by its
constituents across the state? To what extent is MNA perceived to be an
effective advocate for the nonprofit sector in Michigan? Geographically
speaking, how well recognized or visible is MNA across the state?

2.

Programs and Services- What are the primary service needs ofMNA's
nonprofit members? To what extent does MNA provide programs and
services which meet these needs? Do these needs vary based on agency
size and type? If so, how?

3.

MNA Membership- To what extent has the MNA membership grown
over the past three-to-five years? Why do organizations join MNA? Why
don't some organizations renew their memberships? How diverse is the
membership in terms of agency size, geographic location and agency
type?

�MNA Recognition and Perception

1.

To what extent is MNA recognized and valued by Michigan
nonprofit sector in Michigan? How is MNA perceived by its
constituents across the state? To what extent is MNA perceived
to be an effective advocate for the nonprofit sector in Michigan?
Geographically speaking, how weD recognized or visible is MNA
across the state?

In a question related to MNA' s recognition and visibility, six staffwere asked
to describe how effectively they thought MNA has communicated its mission and
services to Michigan nonprofit agencies using a four-point scale ranging from very

effectively to not effectively at all.
Five staff members felt qualified to respond to the question. Four of the staff
indicated that MNA has accomplished this "somewhat effectively."

Two staff

members indicated in their comments that they believed that MNA has done well in
tenns of communicating the mission to its membership, but concede that they have
not been as successful in reaching non-member agencies.

One staff member

responded "not very effectively" to the question concerning MNA' s efforts to

.

communicate its mission .
AU six staff members responded to the question concerning MNA' s
effectiveness in communicating its services to Michigan' s nonprofit agencies. Their
responses indicate that one staff person thinks that MNA has been "very effective" in
communicating its services to nonprofit agencies while four staff members believe that
MNA has been "somewhat'' effective. One staff person indicated that MNA has not
been very effective in this area. Again, the comments reflect a sense that MNA
communicates its services fairly well to its membership, but not as well to others.
While the responses ofMNA staff were not unanimous on these questions, they do
indicate that staff is aware of the need to shore up its efforts to reach nonprofit
agencies outside beyond MNA' s member base.

Turning now to the MNA membership for their overall perceptions of the
organization, the data shows that the overwhelming majority of the members view
MNA in a positive light.

An analysis of the comments provided by the 48

organizations responding to the question concerning their overall perception ofMNA
indicates that approximately 70% of members perceive the organization very
favorably in terms of promoting Michigan's nonprofit sector and advancing the cause
ofvolunteerism and philanthropy in the state. Following are some examples ofthe
comments made by MNA member agencies:

+ "They do an excellent job of meeting their mission."
+ "Effective, helpful, facilitates collaboration-responsive to members
needs."

+ "Does a very good job--especially through VCM."
+ "Continues to gain ground as a preeminent spokesman for the sector.
Increased public policy focus will remain a linchpin for future success."

+ "Good work-helpful to give a political voice to the nonprofit sector."
+ "Overall, our agency has been impressed with MNA"
+ "I believe MNA is actively working toward its mission. I have seen press
releases regarding MNA, and evidence of MNA's effect on increasing
awareness about the work of nonprofits."

+ "Well organized, focused."
Six agencies, or roughly 13% of agencies responding to the question on
overall perception expressed negative perceptions of.MNA A few examples of these
perceptions are provided below:

+

"MNA is not effective in comparison to its peers. It is not visible. Its
peers are very visible, very activ~ I cannot say the same of.MNA"

+

''Not a strong resource for volunteer programs."

+ "My perception is not a particularly good one. There is too much
emphasis on volunteerism and not enough on strengthening nonprofits in
other ways."
Five agencies-approximately 100/o of those responding-indicated that they
did not feel qualified to make an assessment ofMNA as an organization because they

�are new members. The remaining three organizations (6%) offered either neutral or
mixed perceptions of MNA such as, "Mission is worthy, but I don't feel much
connection with other nonprofit organizations and what they are 'up to' and about."
The balance of the comments support the fact that most of the member
agencies have very positive perceptions of MNA as an advocate for the nonprofit
sector in Michigan. The following chart illustrates members' perceptions ofMNA's
effectiveness as an advocate for nonprofits. Members were asked to describe MNA's

effectiveness as a nonprofit advocate using a fiv~point scale ranging from extremely
effective to not at all effective.

The comments also indicate that MNA's role and focus are issues for some
agencies. MNA' s support of volunteer programs, for example, is perceived as
excessive by some agencies and too little by others. Issues such as this underscore the
reality that-in the eyes of its members, MNA cannot be all things to all nonprofit
agencies, but the organization can advocate for and support the nonprofit sector very
effectively.

services which meet these needs? Do these needs vary based on
agency size and type? If so, how?

To help answer these questions FERA first asked MNA staff about the types
of services, if any, that the organization should provide to its member agencies which
are not currently offered. While two staff members felt that this was an area in which
they were not particularly knowledgeable, the remaining four staff persons descnbed
a range of services that MNA might consider offering its members. Their responses
can be grouped into the following categories:
1. Expanded Technical Assistance: MNA's technical assistance to member

agencies should include technical assistance in specific areas such as
technology (computer training, website training, etc.) volunteer
management and legal issues. It was also suggested that technical
assistance in the area of fund development could be strengthened.
2. Expanded Public Policy Efforts: MNA should be more active and
involved - tracking legislation, educating members on legislation and
advocating on their behalf
3. Nonprofit Support: An increased focus on nonprofit agency needs, now
that VCM and MCC affiliates are doing well, would be timely. It was also
suggested that MNA consider providing additional mini-grants to member
agencies.
4. Increased Publications: MNA should develop additional publications to
assist its members in a wide range of areas (e.g. how to start a nonprofit,
etc.). It was further suggested that a nonprofit library or resource center
which also serves as a clearinghouse for these and other publications
would be ofbenefit to the membership.
·
5. Enhanced Financial Services: Disability insurance for the officers of
member agencies, workers' compensation insurance and other services
can be offered to further enhance the financial benefits package available
to MNA members.
As part of the MNA member survey, agencies were asked directly whether or

not MNA's technical assistance services were meeting the needs of their organization.
While 17 of the agencies surveyed indicated that this question was "not applicable"
to their organization, 500(o of the agencies for whom this was a relevant question
indicated that yes, MNA' s technical assistance services were meeting their needs.
Approximately 36% of those surveyed indicated that their agencies' needs were being

July 1999

Page 10

�met "partially or somewhat". The remaining 14%, however, responded that their
agencies technical assistance needs were not being met.
Respondents who did not answer "yes" to this question were asked to explain
their reasons for not being fully satisfied with MNA's technical assistance services.
The comments provided by 25 respondents can be grouped into several categories.
For example, as illustrated below approximately 24% ofthe comments indicate that
many of MNA' s member agencies are not familiar with the technical servtces
available.
•

"I don't know what is available."

•

"What can you do for us?"

•

''Not even aware ofwhat they are."

•

"What technical assistance?"

An equal proportion of those responding (24%) indicated that their agencies
either have never used or simply do not need the technical assistance services available
through MNA.
•

"(We) use our national office for technical assistance."

•

"Haven't taken advantage of them."

•

''Not sure, we haven't used it much except for reading the mailings."

•

"Have not utilized technical assistance services."

Another group of respondents- again 24% -

indicated that their agencies

would like to see more programs and services offered.
•

"Would like to see more training for managers."

•

"Would like a booklet of all nonprofits in the state of Michigancontacts, addresses, contact numbers. No one printed this to our
knowledge."

•

''Need someone to take place of Cooley Clinic articles."

•

"Possibly offe~ more (i.e. video rentals on NPO topics)."

Interestingly, a significant portion of those providing additional comments
(20%) perceive that MNA's services do not apply to their agencies.
• "Our TA needs are specific to technology, resource development and
marketing."

+ "We are a foundation; MNA services don't apply too directly to us, but
we appreciate their efforts for the sector."

+ "It is difficult for small organizations to get tapped into because most
programs serve large well established groups like Salvation Army,
Hospitals or Universities."

+ "Many services are admirable, but are most applicable to the smaller
nonprofit associations. Good service for those who need."
The remaining 8% of respondents indicated that they did not feel qualified or
familiar enough with MNA to comment further. However, the comments presented
here illustrate that while nearly 500/o of agencies describe MNA' s technical assistance
services as falling short to some extent, a good deal of the problem appears to be
related to marketing. A significant portion of member agencies appear to be either
unfamiliar with the services available or believe that the services are not meant for
organizations such as theirs.
Finally, when asked about other services, if any, they would like to see MNA
provide to member agencies, survey respondents offered a number of suggestions in
addition to those described above. These suggestions include:

+ "More literature, small conferences in different regions of out state to
encourage northern areas to get involved."

+ "More workshops and conferences in Northern Michigan."

+ ''Directory of agencies which reflects: Name, Mission, Programs, Program
Content, Service Market, etc."
• "Coordinator for access and use of telecommunications technology among
members (e-mail, web sites, voice mail, distance learning)."
• "Help us find salary money!"
•

"1. Lobby on our behalf. 2. Sponsor training throughout the state on
many topics (i.e. employment law, board training, etc.). 3. Have an annual
event with some real substance."

MNA Membership

3.

To what extent bas the MNA membership grown over the past
three-to-five years? Why do organizations join MNA? Why
don't some organizations renew their memberships? How diverse
is the membership in terms of agency size, geographic location
and agency type!

The answers to these questions are drawn from membership records as well
as insights from :MNA staff and feedback from member agencies. Interviews with
:MNA staff included several questions related to the organization's membership base,
recruitment and retainment. Similarly, nonprofit member agencies were asked about
their primary reasons for becoming a member of :MNA and whether or not their
organizations expected to renew their memberships. Data was also collected from a
sample of former :MNA member agencies who chose not to renew their memberships.
Membership records from MNA indicate that membership has grown steadily since
1995. The following chart reflects the growth in membership over this period of time.

�In tenns of satisfaction with the diversity of the membership base, for
example, MNA staffwere asked to rank their overall level of satisfaction on a fourpoint scale that ranged from "very satisfied" to "not at all satisfied". All six staff
persons interviewed unanimously agreed that they were "somewhat satisfied" with the
diversity ofMNA's membership. Further, five staffpersons offered reasons for lower
participation rates among certain segments of the nonprofit community. These
reasons are summarized below:

• Lack of Clear Identity/Image: In the eyes ofMNA staff: the number one
reason for lower participation rates among certain segments of the
nonprofit community has to do with nonprofit agencies' lack of familiarity
with MNA and the services it provides to member organizations. As one
staff person stated, "They don't know what we're all about. They just
don't really understand what we can do for them." Another explained, "If
they don't know who we are and the value of membership, they probably
won't join."

• Accessibility: Another explanation for lower participation rates among
some segments of the population concerns accessibility. As a Lansingbased organization, agencies in northern and western Michigan often do
not perceive MNA to be as accessible as they would like. "They don't
know about us or think we have something to offer them." The
accessibility issue is exacerbated by the fact that most of the training is
offered in southeastern Michigan which is difficult for many of the smaller,
rural organizations. The lack of personal involvement in MNA through
workshops and conferences most likely is a contributing factor to lower
participation rates among this segment of the nonprofit community.

• Agency Size: Some MNA staff also suggested that agency size can be a
barrier to reaching certain segments of the nonprofit community.
According to staff: many of the organizations that do not participate are
small and lack the time and other resources to do other things. Personal
contact through conferences and workshops are considered important
ways to familiarize organizations with MNA, but too often smaller
agencies cannot participate in these, "and it's tough to bring in
organizations that don't."
MNA staff were also questioned about what they perceived to be the greatest
barriers in both recruiting and retaining new members. In terms of recruitment,
according to staff' the overriding barrier appears to be limited MNA resources for new
member recruitment. The most effective outreach calls for a personal contact.

MNA fear One Evaluation Repo11

�However, recruitment efforts are somewhat ·limited with only one staff person
available for outreach activities. Some staff also felt that services, to some· degree,
have an impact on recruitment. When new services are added, typically there is an
increase in membership. According to one staff person MNA "needs to become like
a chamber of commerce for nonprofits."
Barriers to retaining members were not perceived to be a significant area of
concern by MNA staffbecause ofthe relatively high retention rate of members. In
their comments on membership retention, three issues surfaced. First, MNA must not
only continue to offer a range of quality programs and services to its members, but
continue to develop new programs and services which meet their changing needs as
well. Second, some staff feel that perhaps MNA has not kept existing members
feeling connected and part of the MNA "family'' as much as it should. It has been
suggested that personal contact with each member at some point each year is needed
to help keep members connected. The normal personnel turnover within the nonprofit
sector can result in a staff who knows very little about MNA and what it has to offer.
Finally, the high turnover of nonprofit agency executive directors can also become
a barrier to retaining members. The new executive directors may not be familiar with
MNA and the benefits of membership, and therefore may simply allow the
membership to lapse.
As previously stated, MNA's member organizations were also asked for their
input on the value of membership to nonprofit agencies. Specifically, member
agencies were asked to identify their organization's primary reason for becoming a
member ofMNA The responses to this question are as follows:

�As the data indicates, slightly more than 50% of respondents value MNA' s

role as an advocate for nonprofit agencies as the number one reason for becoming a
member. Approximately 24% or respondents consider MNA' s technical assistance
to nonprofits as the primary reason for becoming a member. The remaining 24%
identified a range of other reasons for joining, nearly all of which belong to one of the
following categories:

•

Access to Information : MNA provides information on topics of interest
to the nonprofit sectqr which is very important its member agencies. The
majority of survey respondents who listed "other" reasons for becoming
a member consider the information provided by :MNA to be the most
important reason. Information on grant opportunities for nonprofit
organizations, in particular, is very important to members.

•

Training/Conferences/Educational Opportunities: :MNA' s training,
seminars and other educational opportunities are very important to its
members as well. Training in the area of grant writing, for example, was
considered very useful.

•

Networking Opportunities: MNA member agencies also value the
opportunity to meet and network with other nonprofit organizations, and
consider this the most important reason for becoming a member.

In an effort to better gauge the outlook for :MNA in terms of membership
retention, member agencies were asked whether or not they expected that their
organizations would remain members of:MNA for at least the next three years. The
overwhelming majority (700/o) of members responding to this question indicated that
yes, they did expect to remain members ofMNA Another 26% of members surveyed
selected "maybe/don't know" as their response to this question. The remaining 4%
indicated that they did not expect their organization to renew its membership. The
reasons cited by member agencies for either selecting "no" or "maybe/don' t know''
fall primarily into one oftwo categories as follows :

+

Benefit/Value ofMembership : A number ofMNA members do not clearly
see the value of membership to their organizations. Some believe that the
cost of membership outweighs the benefits. As one member stated, ''Not
enough 'bang for the buck'-1 expected much more."

• Cost. For other nonprofit agencies the decision of whether or not to renew
their memberships will rest solely on organizational finances.

membership fees less affordable than larger nonprofits. Cost \S \arge for
our nonprofit. We struggle with affording the fees."
Finally, input fromjormer MNA member organizations who did not renew
their memberships also helps to shed light on this topic. As indicated earlier in this
report, a telephone survey of 10 former MNA member agencies was conducted in an
effort to better understand why these agencies, and presumably others like them, did
not renew their memberships. Former MNA member agencies were asked a series of
questions concerning their experiences as member organizations.
When asked why their organizations had joined MNA, for example, half of the
survey respondents indicated that they did not know. In many instances the decisions
were made by a previous agency director and the current executive director was not
aware of the rationale for joining MNA. Others offered several reasons why their
organizations joined MNA including:
•

To be a part of a community of organizations

•

To obtain legal assistance and retirement information for agency
employees

• For information purpo~ to keep the agency abreast on issues affecting
the nonprofit community
Survey respondents also indicated why they believed that their organizations
chose not to renew their MNA memberships. Three respondents indicated that they
either did not know why the memberships were not renewed or were not aware that
they had even expired. Other responses to this question were varied.
•

''Didn't want to be involved..... overwhelmed with new job
responsibilities ..."

• "Probably financial constraints."
• "The new leaders are officers and not sophisticated enough to realize the
benefits."
• "Disappointed with the information received .... no expos or anything
beyond pamphlets."

�• "Didn't find a benefit for the organization .. .. No 'aha' expenence.
·
,
• "Wanted seminars .... .found that Accounting Aid Society is better able to
meet their needs."
• "He decided that they didn't want to pay for it.. ...but sincerely no axe to
grind."
In an effort to learn more about the perceptions of fanner MNA member

agencies, those surveyed were asked to indicate whether or not there were services
important to their organizations which were. not available through MNA.
Approximately one-half of the survey respondents could not think of any 'missing
services' . The balance of respondents offered the following:
t

"Infonnation for officers is lacking."

t

"We expected regular meetings, a list of involved organizations and
regular communications."

•

"All ofthe services already exist in the marketplace...MNA duplicates, not

creates."
Finally, fanner MNA member organizations were asked about the conditions
under which they would consider renewing their memberships and also asked to offer
any suggestions for making MNA membership more valuable to nonprofit agencies.
In responding to the question on renewing their agencies membership, several of the

respondents suggested that their organizations might consider renewing their
memberships if they were better educated on MNA and the benefits of membership.
For other agencies barriers to renewing their MNA memberships include the cost,
services provided and one organization's perception that MNA foa1ses on the large
nonprofits rather than smaller agencies.

Good news! We recently received word that our funding has been approved for the 3r year of
our Midwest Collaboration (MWC) grant, through the Corporation for National Service. The

MCC has awarded over $120,000 in mini-grants to faculty members in Michigan.
Mini-grant applications are currently available for the faculty development grants (Scholarship of
Engagement and Faculty Fellows) offered through this project. Please keep in mind that this is
the final year of funding for this project, so don't wait to apply! Please contact Amy Smitter at

initial response. Applications for the 1999-2000 SCAF program will be available by August. Call
MCC at 517/353-9393 for more details or an application.
4. Scholarship of Engagement ~ Round II Grants Available

professional service activities that engage faculty in the community. In addition, each grantee
will be responsible for a match up to $1,000 (50% of funding requested).
We invite proposals from faculty in collaboration with community based organizations for
projects that connect faculty professional life to the communities in which they are employed.

4. Make A Difference Day State Partners
Imagine the energy that one-day of service on your campus could generate! Make A Difference
Day offers just such an opportunity. This year Make a Difference Day is Saturday, October 23,
1999 and is a national day of service that can be used to rally students in the spirit of
volunteerism. Many students who participate in one time volunteer events go on to volunteer for
community agencies on a consistent basis.
Michigan Campus Compact, has joined The Michigan Community Service Commission,
Volunteer Centers of Michigan, Michigan Family Independence Agency, United Way of
Michigan, MSU Extension and Council of Michigan Foundations, in conjunction with the
ConnectMichigan campaign for volunteerism, in creating the enclosed Make A Difference Day
project planning packet to help individuals and organizations in their planning of local projects.
Please note that project entry forms are due October 1. 1999.
Last year more than 75,000 people participated in more than 500 projects across Michigan. We
want to congratulate those colleges and universities that participated last year, and encourage the
rest to join them in this year's activities. If you need more information on MDDay or to request
additional copies of the project-planning packet, call Lindy Lange at 517/335-4295.

2) Service-Learning 101 Planning Conference
Ohio Campus Compact, in collaboration with the campus compacts of Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, and
Michigan, will host the 1999 Service Learning 101 Planning Conference on October 21-22, 1999.

�This Planning Conference will be held in Columbus, Ohio. Fifteen campus teams from campus
compact member colleges and universities from Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan and Iowa will
be selected to attend the Planning Conference. Campus teams will be selected through a
competitive proposal process. The Request for Proposals for this event will be mailed out to
member institutions the last week of August 1999.
This conference is geared towards those campuses who are not currently actively engaged in
campus-wide service-learning. Campuses are invited to attend this Planning Conference as a
team. Each team of three people must include a tenured or tenure-track faculty member and one
key campus administrator, (i.e. provost, academic dean, or department chair). We strongly
believe that for efforts to be successful, these two representatives must be a part of the team. The
other team member may be selected from community service directors, student affairs
administrators, community representatives, Boards of Trustees, and others.
Teams are asked to submit an application to attend the Planning Conference and contribute
$175.00 to help with the cost. Applications will be reviewed in terms of the articulation of welldefined and obtainable goals and the capacity of the team to successfully implement ServiceLearning and receive support from their campus. This is a competitive selection process, with
three teams from each state being selected to attend.
The timeline for the Service-Learning 101 Planning Conference is:
9/24/99
10/1/99
10/21-22/99

• In August, Rosalie Petrouske joined VCM as a Program Manager. Rosalie will be primarily responsible
for the remainder of our National Service Grants and related activities, trans itioning to SuperConference
and general Volunteer Center support early in 2000.
• Both VCM AmeriCorps and New Partnerships VISTA will close their programs at the end of the year.
Sites are currently focusing on issues of sustainability and collaboration, to ensure continuation of the
good work started by National Service members. A graduation ceremony and celebration will take
place at our final training, November 5 and 6.
• Preliminary discussions have been held regarding a VCM VISTA program, which would support local
Volunteer Centers in their efforts to promote America's Promise and the "Five Fundamental Resources"
in their communities.

Membership Committee
Conference Call Meeting
September?, 1999
Motions Approved and Referred to the MNA Board of Trustees

The Board of Trustees of the Michigan Nonprofit Association should take an active
role in the solicitation and retention of MNA members.
The Board of Trustees of the Michigan Nonprofit Association should support the
MNA Fall Membership Campaign by adopting a Board Goal of recruiting 75 new
MNA members by December 31, 1999.
The Michigan Nonprofit Association should work to establish an agreement with
Westport Insurance to offer Director and Officer Liability Insurance as a service for
MNA members.

�Michigan Nonprofit Association
Nonprofit Outreach Report
September 21,1999
Membership Update
The MNA Membership Committee convened September 7, 1999 and agreed to promote and
support a 1999 Fall MNA Membership Campaign. Details of the campaign include more active
solicitation of new members by the MNA Board of Directors and the MNA staff. New strategies
for member retention will also be put in place. MNA currently has 658 members including
MAVA, VCM and MCC members; however 71 of these are delinquent in the payment of their
dues.

The MNA website has a classy new look, fresh information and more links to related areas of
interest thanks to Kevin Cheli-Colando of the MNA staff. The website has fourteen general
categories of information for nonprofit organizations and includes classified ads, abstracts, grant
and funding opportunities, publications, and links to numerous supporting organizations. Visit
the website at http://www.mna.msu.edu

Member Services
Nonprofit Outreach anticipates that three new services/benefits will be made available to our
members before the end of the year. Discussions are underway for the following:
1. Director &amp; Officer Liability Insurance
2. Cellular telephone service
3. Nonprofit magazine subscription

Membership Directory
The third edition of the MNA Member Directory will be ready for distribution in October. The
new directory contains many more websites and e-mail addresses, creating a broader
informational network for members. Sixteen sponsors have committed a total of $7100 for
advertising to cover the cost of printing the directory.

�Resource/Informational Services
During the last three months, Nonprofit Outreach has provided resource information to over one
hundred nonprofit organizations. Some of these requests have come from people interested in
starting nonprofit organizations, some from member organizations and others from prospective
member organizations. Each of these contacts has required research and/or duplication of
materials. Numerous other calls were received where immediate answers could be provided.

Classified Advertising
The number of classified ads that MNA has handled for Grain's Nonprofit News this fiscal year
has increased 25.4% over the same period last year. Revenue has increased 18.7%. Because
members receive discounts on advertising, the ratio between number of ads and revenue varies
depending on the number of members placing ads.

Member Update
The MNA MemberUpdate is mailed the first week of the month; MNA Board Members are
encouraged to contribute items for the publication. Articles on nonprofit management and
services, funding awards and opportunities, executive level appointments, conference information
and dates for the Calendar of Events should be mailed or faxed to Lynn Lucas at MNA by the 15th
of the month.

Questions
Please E-mail any questions and comments to Sam Singh at Singhsam@pilot.msu.edu. or Jan
Harper at jharper@pilot.msu.edu. or call MNA directly at 517-353-5038.

�Membership Strategies Borrowed from Other State Associations

Strategies

What MNA Could Do

Considerations/Costs

Staff makes telephones calls
to new members within 2
months to be sure they are
receiving mailings and to
answer questions.

MNA Staff will make calls to
all new members beginning
with the August enrollments.

Minimal staff time involved

Staff makes calls to anyone
that made a request for
member information but did
not join.

Approximately 15 new
member packets are sent per
month-more at conference
time. Follow-up calls will
start in September.

Minimal staff time involved

Staff telephones
nonmembers that have
requested information to
encourage them to become
members.

Approximately 25
nonmember requests for
information are handled per
month. Follow-up calls will
begin in September.

Approximately 2-4 hours of
staff time per month would
need to be allotted.

Staff makes random phone
calls to members to be sure
they receive mailings and to
see if they have concerns or
needs that the organization
could address.

MNA staff could make
random membership calls
three to four times per year.

Minimal staff time involved

Board establishes member
recruitment goals.

See attachment "Board Goal"
modified from North Carolina
Center for Nonprofit.

Time and commitment of
board members

Board members send letters
to nonmember colleagues,
friends and contacts to
encourage them to join the
organization.

MNA could provide a sample
letter to be generated on
board member's letterhead or
personal stationary.

Time, commitment, and office
supplies from board
members.

MNA could provide lists of
members by county, zip
code, or type of organization
(i.e. human services, arts,
etc.)

Minimal staff time involved.

MNA could label and mail
board member's letters.

Postage and minimal staff
time involved.

�Membership Strategies Borrowed From Other State Associations
Strategies

What MNA Could Do

Considerations/Costs

Board members, staff or
membership committee
makes telephone calls to
executive directors of nonrenewing organizations.

Staff could use assistance
with this. Currently there are
nearly 80 organizations that
have been invoiced for the 3rd
time. A list of non-renewals
is attached.

Time, commitment and long
distance phone calls.

A bright "Last Issue" sticker is
attached to newsletter after
3rd invoice is mailed.

Stickers were used on
September newsletters for
non-renewals.

Cost of stickers

A "New Members" session is
held at conferences to
acquaint organizations with
staff and services.

Something we might want to
consider.

Does need exist?

"Compliments of MNA" stamp
is used on any informational
document or newsletter that
is mailed or given to
nonmembers.

The stamp has been ordered.

Cost of stamp

Renewal notices are tied to
services used (i.e. insurance,
discounted publications,
conferences, etc.)

The number of member
services needs to be
expanded for this to be
effective. Under
consideration are a nonprofit
magazine subscription offer,
director and officer liability
insurance, and more.

Staff time for planning and
monitoring services once
they are in place.
Some services like director
and officer liability insurance
could generate additional
revenue.

�I will be willing to contact the organizations that I have checked or highlighted. I will wait
for MNA to mail information about the organization and MNA membership information.
