Here are some talking points you may want to consider in your remarks. I look forward to seeing you tomorrow. • The MNA Public Policy Committee met on August 27, 1997. The Public Policy Committee reviewed a number of legislative proposals The two that the Public Policy Committee took action on dealt with a 501(c)(3) charity credit and legislation regarding nonprofit/for profit conversions in the hospital communities • House Bill 5055 - Tax Credit -- HB5055 was introduced by Rep. Kirk Profit. The bill provides individual tax filers a $50 tax credit and joint filers a $100 tax credit if they donate to an IRS-designated 501(c)(3) organization. The committee discussed the bill and outlined the following concerns: - Religious organizations were excluded by specifying only 501 (c)(3) organizations can be designated for a tax credit. - The tax credit developed in HB5055 was not set up like other current tax credits for food banks and community foundations. - The House Bill lacked a sunset clause Given MNA's long standing goal in providing tax incentives for charitable giving, the committee requested that MNA continue to follow the bill. • Nonprofit Conversions — The committee reviewed a number of nonprofit to for-profit bills that have been introduced into the legislature. The bills were introduced in response to the potential conversion of nonprofit hospitals to for-profit hospitals, (add any pertinent information you deem appropriate) The committee agreed that MNA should follow these bills and address any specific language that might impact the larger nonprofit community. �Nonprofit Grassroots Lobbying — The MNA staff presented a plan to survey its members regarding their relationships with individual legislators. This survey will provide MNA with an understanding of its membership and their ability to influence the legislature The committee requested some minor changes to this document. They will review this at their November 21, 1997 meeting. Michigan Public Policy Initiative — The staff updated the Public Policy Committee on the Michigan Public Policy Initiative which is jointly sponsored by MNA and the Council of Michigan Foundations. As was mentioned in the finance report, MNA received a grant from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation for $200,000 to begin this two year project.

While there are currently hundreds of thousands of men to ring and tutoring relationships, it is estimated that more than 1 'J million young people would benefit from the intervention of a caring adult. The goal is to create the additional tutoring and mentoring relationships necessary for a positive impact on the lives oi these young people. Safe Places to team and Grow Young people cannot tlourish, develop and properly mature into productive citizens in a climate of fear and chaos. The goal is to increase safe places and structured activities during non-school hours so that young people can study, play and receive the necessary guidance to reach their full potential in life. Marketable Skills through Effective Education Many young people attend school with little or no concept of how their studies will prepare them for a job or economic opportunity. The goal is to forge new · partnerships among businesses, schools and citizen volunteers to provide more young people with mentors, summer jobs, internships, and the essential skills of reading and mathematics. A Healthy Start Adequate health care and healthy behaviors are essential to every childs' development and well-being. The goal is to find new ways, in cooperation with government, health care providers and business, to assure that this is achieved. An Opportunity to Give Back Often young people are not encouraged, or given the opportunity, to help others. The goal is to provide young pe<Jple with the opportunity to serve, so that they become part of the solution and experience first-hand the benefit of being active citizens.

Overview; The Michigan Association of Volunteer Administrators (MAVA) has a long history of providing support and technical assistance to volunteer administrators across Michigan. As a volunteer organization, MAVA has shown outstanding dedication to its members, striving to meet both their needs and interests. As the field of volunteerism has expanded, however, MAVA's board and committee volunteers have found themselves taxed by the increasing responsibilities of both their "day jobs" and their involvement with MAVA. MAVA Membership has declined and involvement has waned, due to the simple fact that the goals of the organization now require full-time staffing and support. The Michigan Nonprofit Association (MNA) plays a central role in the promotion and support of volunteerism, while addressing the needs of nonprofit organizations throughout our state. With 425 members statewide (including 27 volunteer centers through MNA's affiliate, Volunteer Centers of Michigan), MNA is a leader in technical assistance and support for the nonprofit sector. MNA and other key state partners (including the Michigan Community Service Commission, Council of Michigan Foundations and the Corporation for National Service State Program Office) are responsible for the annual Volunteerism SuperConference and Grantmakers/Grantseekers Conference, as well as the statewide promotion of Make A Difference Day and National Volunteer � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

MCC Advisory Councils Advisory Councils have been in place since before 1996 The council meetings serve as a means of disseminating and gathering information between MCC and each constituency At these meetings networking among individuals with similar positions within the higher education institutions is one of the greatest benefits MCC is as strong as it is because those involved do not hesitate to go campus-to-campus and share their knowledge, forms, processes, research, techniques, and program ideas. The individuals on the councils are also the people who are most involved in planning the programs which MCC sponsors The Director shall solicit members of the Advisory Councils and make recommendations to the Council of Presidents.

As a reminder, the MNA financial statements have been modified to reflect the new laws governing nonprofit financial reporting (FASB106 and 107). STATEMENT OF REVENUE AND EXPENSE The 1997-98 Statement of Revenue and Expense includes a new column (Budget for Month) that reflects monthly budget projections. This will enable the MNA staff to analyze the organization's financial position on a monthly basis. Future Statements of Revenue and Expenses will also include YTD figures. REVENUE Restricted Grants - This line item reflects a -$14,615 Fetzer Grant payment which was received in August. EXPENSE Salaries - The salary line is over budget in the amount of $2,722 to reflect a one-time payment to M. Grill for her services as interim president and to J. Holsman for her services as interim VCM director. These payments were spread over the entire year rather than budgeted for July. These are one time expenses that will be incurred only in July. Benefits - The benefits line is under budget in the amount of $1,835 which accurately reflects MNA's current staffing position than the salaries line item. Office Expenses - Office operation expenses are under budget in the amount of $4,286. The majority of this savings is in the publications department. Publication projects were originally budgeted to be completed in July; however, the timeline for these projects was adjusted. The expenses will still occur later in the 97-98 fiscal year. �STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL POSITION Balance Sheet) ASSETS Cash Checking - Mich.

Overview; The Youth Volunteer Corps of America (YVCA) has a strong presence within the state of Michigan. For many years, discussions have been held relative to the development of a YVC Michigan network. Working in close partnership with YVCA, this network would provide support to existing Youth Volunteer Corps programs, members and staff, while promoting the mission and objectives of YVC for the development of new sites. With the overwhelming level of state support for the Presidents' Summit for America's Future and America's Promise, YVC can and should be a model for young people identifying, addressing, and posing solutions for critical issues facing youth today. Three of the most consistent and effective YVC programs in Michigan are internal to volunteer centers (Detroit, Alpena, and Muskegon). Other YVC host sites work closely with their local volunteer centers and/or partner organizations. As volunteer centers throughout the state seek to develop and enhance service opportunities for young people, they are in need of an easily adaptable, low-cost, proven model for success: the YVC model can meet this need. �The Michigan Nonprofit Association (MNA), in partnership with Volunteer Centers of Michigan (VCM), plays a central role in the promotion and support of America's Promise, while addressing the needs of nonprofit organizations and the communities they serve throughout our state. Through the Presidents' Summit, the Michigan Nonprofit Association and its affiliates have made a commitment to involve 50,000 youth in volunteer activities by the year 2000. MNA is also a partner in our state Summit follow-up activities, providing support to Michigan's six communities who participated in the Philadelphia event while promoting the initiative statewide. With 425 members statewide (including 27 volunteer centers), MNA is a leader in technical assistance and support for the nonprofit sector. MNA/VCM and other key state partners (including the Michigan Community Service Commission, Council of Michigan Foundations and the Corporation for National Service State Program Office) are responsible for the annual Volunteerism SuperConference and Grantmakers/Grantseekers Conference, as well as the statewide promotion of Make A Difference Day and National Volunteer Week activities. MNA is also actively involved in public policy and legislation; provides regional trainings on critical issues from administration and accounting to trends in volunteerism to board development; hosts two state-wide national service programs, VCM AmeriCorps and New Partnerships VISTA; and reaches a broad audience through the affiliation of MNA with Volunteer Centers of Michigan (VCM), Michigan Campus Compact (MCC), and a Points of Light Foundation YES Ambassador for the state of Michigan who serves through the MNA office. As MNA seeks to further develop the field of volunteerism in Michigan and YVCA seeks to strengthen the quality and capacity of YVC sites in Michigan, a formal partnership between the two seems a natural and mutually beneficial next step. The success of this partnership relies on the shared commitment of both entities. MNA will; 1. Provide technical assistance for existing YVC programs in Michigan; 2. Assist YVCA and Field Staff with coordination/implementation of regional trainings involving Michigan YVC's; 3. Coordinate one annual, state-wide training/retreat for YVC AmeriCorps Members, Team Leaders, and staff (low-cost, incurred by local sites); 4. Host quarterly meetings for Michigan YVC Program Directors; 5. Promote YVC as preferred youth volunteerism model in Michigan with technical support provided for emerging sites; 6. Provide access to all MNA Member benefits for member YVC sites (see enclosed information); 7. Serve as fiduciary agent for all grants and funding secured for the development and support of the YVC Michigan network; and 8. Provide complimentary membership to YVCA with recognition of partnership. YVCA will; 1. Guarantee MNA membership of all YVC sites in Michigan at an introductory rate of $50 per site for 1997-98 fiscal year, and rising to meet the annual membership of Volunteer Centers (currently $100) beginning in 1998-99; 2. Reimburse all transportation, lodging, meals, and related costs for two MNA staff members (Points of Light Foundation's YES Ambassador and VCM Director or proxy) to attend the YVCA National Conference each fall; �3. Provide complimentary affiliation and recognized partnership to MNA; and 4.

Finance Report: S. Singh reported on MNA's finances. He reviewed the 1996-97 Year End Financial Statements. At the April 23, 1997 executive committee meeting, staff presented the committee with an anticipated year end deficit of $45,000. MNA closed its fiscal year with a $1,838.61 deficit. The $1,838.61 deficit amount did not reflect accrued retirement or vacation for MNA staff. S. Singh informed the committee that he anticipated the deficit to increase to $15,000 with retirement and vacation. This information will be available upon the completion of the 1996-97 MNA audit. S Singh presented an amended budget for FY 97-98.

Kellogg Foundation. The budget also includes MNA hosting the Volunteerism SuperConference and postponing Grantmakers/Grantseekers X to 1999 Staff will conduct regional trainings in the areas of fund development, volunteer management, and accounting and legal issues. The new amended budget reflects an additional $600,000, increasing MNA's budget from a $1,146,577 to $1,714,826. S. Singh congratulated M. Grill and L. Chambers for their efforts to raise the additional program grants. S. Singh indicated budget areas that include soft money are sponsorships and corporate volunteerism.
