�IThe 2007-08 Nonprofit Consultant &amp; Resource Directory
The 2007-08 Nonprofit Consultant and Resource Directory has been mailed to members
and will be available at the MNA board meeting.

I The 2008 Compensation &amp;

Benefit Survey

Plans are underway for the 2008 Nonprofit Compensation and Benefit Survey. MNA is
working with several Management Support Organizations and The Johnson Center for
Philanthropy at Grand Valley State University on this project. It is anticipated that the
survey collection tool will be distributed to organizations in late summer or early fall.
MNA has been distributing postcards to encourage participation in the survey. Cards will
be available at the MNA board meeting.

!Bookstore
MNA managed two bookstores during the month of May that generated revenue and
placed many wonderful resources in the hands of nonprofit organizations. The first
bookstore was held in Lansing at the Affordable Housing Conference. Approximately
380 publications were sold. At the Nonprofit SuperConference, approximately 339
publications were sold.
In addition to bookstores, staff has been actively marketing publications such as the
Compensation &amp; Benefit Survey and the Michigan Nonprofit Management Manual, with
sales coming in at record levels.

If you have questions about MNA membership, services or benefit programs, contact Jan
Harper atjharper@m.naonline.org or 517/492-2416

MNA a "no objections" letter for the merger and requested final copies of the
Certificate of Merger and the CMA final IRS returns for the period ending, June
30, 2007. Our legal counsel (Dykema, LLC) responded with the requested
infotmation and a notation promising to provide the IRS returns when completed.
Internally, the staff is working to continue the internal integration efforts that
began several months ago. A working group was formed and is beginning to
develop our assessment and planning processes. Staff will provide a presentation
of our initial results and recommendations at the MNA Board of Trustees meeting
in December.
Please feel free to contact me directly should you have any questions about our
merger process.

Training

" A series of trainings on fund development and volunteer administration was completed for the
Community Foundation of St. Clair County. This was the second series for that organization and
more are expected. A second governance workshop was delivered for the Michigan Center for
Rural Health in East Lansing. A third workshop is planned for the thumb area this year as well as
a conference in Marquette in spring 2008.
Fall training will include regular workshops in Lansing and southeastem Michigan, including
Ann Arbor. A new approach to marketing will be through a comprehensive catalog for
southeastern Michigan. This will be a seasonal vehicle. The long list of trainings for fall
includes:
• A Signature Series workshop- "Corporate Sponsorship: Tapping into New Resources"
• A Signature Series workshop -"Relationship-Centered Fundraising"
• A full day on fund development, co-sponsored by the Association ofFundraising
Professionals- Greater Detroit Chapter
• A two-day Grant Funding Face-to-Face in Detroit
• A series of four NPower Michigan webinars on technology topics
• A day-long national speaker on volunteer management
The Getting Started workshops continue to be in high-demand. In addition to regular Detroitbased offerings, a full-day session was just completed in Grand Rapids. Sessions will continue
throughout the year, including full-day sessions being offered in Traverse City, Battle Creek and
Grand Rapids and multi-part workshops in Detroit and Ann Arbor. A strategy is also under
development to produce a web-based version of the Getting Started workshops.

It is anticipated that the Principles and Practices training series will be offered in Detroit over the
course of several months, with an early-fall commencement date.

Consulting and Custom Training

Recent work includes: strategic plam1ing for the Food Bank Council of Michigan, the Alliance for
Enviromnental Sustainability and the Oakland County Child Care Coordinating Council. A
nonprofit certificate program series was completed for Saginaw Valley State University and
another series is planned for fall. MNA is coordinating a series of advanced level workshops for
the United Way in Shiawassee County. MNA will also be providing workshops for the
constituents of The Power of We in Lansing and for the Fremont Area Community Foundation.

Professional Development Seminars

The next class of Emerging Leaders and Executive Leadership Fellows will be based out of the
Detroit office.
15 participants started Emerging Leaders VIII in August 2007.
9 participants will strut Emerging Leaders III in September 2007.
Lansing-based classes of each program are tentatively slated to begin spring 2008, pending results
of integration conversations with the Johnson Center (GVSU). Johnson Center and MNA staff
continue to meet to discuss overlapping curriculum, audience, goals, and opportunities for
partnership. The opp01tunities are vast- we are in the stage of prioritizing and setting realistic
goals.

Digging Deeper Project: Battle Creek

With the success of the consultant trainings and community orientations in the areas of Strategic
Restructuring, Executive Transition Management, and Technology in the Battle Creek area, we
are moving into the second year of our W.K. Kellogg grant with the first stage of replication.
This replication will consist of trainings and consultant development in the Southeast Michigan
area.
The Administrative Support Services Feasibility Study will be live (with a link from the MNA
Home page) from September 6-20, 2007. More than 8,000 nonprofit executives are invited to
participate in the survey, with an anticipated return of 1,000. The survey results will be further
explored with a series of six focus groups throughout the state in late October. The results will
advise our next steps in service provision related to human resources, financial management,
technology and other needs identified through the process.
•

Principles and Practices for Nonprofit Excellence in Michigan

Conversations continue with the Johnson Center (GVSU) in developing a Memorandum of
Understanding regarding the online presence of Principles &amp; Practices. General P&amp;P training
requests have fallen off, and our focus is now turning to the more long-term, in-depth trainings.
Sister associations through the NCNA network continue to adapt the P&amp;P framework for their
own audience needs.
Fall2007- Winter 2008 will see the update and revision of Michigan's Principles &amp; Practices,
with the addition of two potential new Principle areas: Marketing &amp; Connnunications and
Volunteer Management.

Membership Committee
The Membership Committee did not meet this quarter
No Motions Requiring Board Action

�Michigan Nonprofit Association
Member Services Report
September 11, 2007

!Membership Update
The Member Services team is working to coordinate and maximize member recruitment
efforts between the Lansing and Detroit offices with the intent of increasing membership
statewide and meeting or exceeding sustainability funding goals for Detroit.
There has been minimal membership growth this past quarter. Recruitment efforts
continue to bring new members into the organization; however non-renewing members
are approximately equal in number to new members. A survey that was mailed to
approximately 200 past member organizations (2006 and 2007 non-renewals) did not
produce beneficial information. Over 10% of the surveys were returned by the post office
as "not deliverable." Completed surveys indicated "financial reasons" as the first reason
and "did not use the information" as the second reason for not renewing.
Last month, a brief survey was distributed to current MNA members. Responses continue
to arrive and are providing helpful feedback. Members are identifying services and
benefits that are of most value; things they would like MNA to consider; whether they
plan to renew; and if they would recommend MNA to colleagues. Survey responses will
be printed in a future issue of MNA Links.
The staff would like to encourage the MNA Board of Trustees to distribute membership
brochures whenever there is an opportunity to do so. Brochures are available at board
meetings or by contacting Jan Harper at jharper@mnaonline.org or 517/492-2416.

IThe 2008 Nonprofit Compensation &amp; Benefit Survey
The search for sponsoring partners for the 2008 Nonprofit Compensation &amp; Benefit
Survey is underway. Several organizations have committed to being sponsoring
organizations; however there is a need for involvement from other organizations. Please
contact Dave Swenson at 517/492-2406 for information.
The Johnson Center for Philanthropy and Nonprofit Leadership at Grand Valley State
University will conduct the survey and compile the results. The survey will be distributed
in October. MNA is encouraging all nonprofit organizations to participate in the survey to
help ensure validity of the data. The final document will be released in the spring of
2008.

�Bookstore
Direct mail marketing of books was initiated in 2006 and has significantly boosted
publication revenue. During the past four months, more than 1,000 publications have
been sold. Member Services staff is excited about the challenge of identifYing quality
resources and getting them in the hands of nonprofit leaders.

Iclassified Advertising
In spite of the Michigan economic climate, classified advertising for open job positions
continues to exceed budget expectations. Customers often comment that, even when they
used other advetiising approaches, the MNA Classified Connection produced the best job
candidates. MNAjob postings are placed on the MNA website, Crain's Detroit Nonprofit
News website and are blast faxed to 1,000 nonprofit offices. Additional information
about classified ads can be found online at www.mnaonline.org/classified.asp.
Questions about MNA membership, services or benefit programs, should be directed to
Jan Harper atjharper@mnaonline.org or 517/492-2416

Michigan ICampus Compact
Michigan Campus Compact
September 11, 2007

www.micampuscompact. org
Michigan Campus Compact (MCC) is a consortium of 42 college and university presidents in
Michigan that promotes the education and commitment of Michigan college students to be
civically engaged citizens, through creating and expanding academic, co-curricular and campuswide opportunities for community service, service-learning and civic engagement.

2007-2008 Priorities
MCC's theme this year with campuses will be in the intersection between involving students
with community service, access and retention within college. As always, MCC will be doing all
our great programs, grants and events this year in addition to these priorities:

2007 Michigan Campus Compact Listening Tour
The 2007 Michigan Campus Compact Listening Tour will serve to inspire campuses involved with the
movement for civic learning within higher education, provide feedback and direction for Michigan
Campus Compact, and allow for creative thought and leadership to emerge within the movement.
More specifically, MCC aims to:
•

Build constituents' sense of participating in a common movement.

•

Identify new leaders and/or resources on campuses that might contribute to this movement.

•

Gather members' ideas on how to use the opportunity of the upcoming 20th anniversary of
Michigan Campus Compact to grow our common work.

•

Collect stories that show why the work matters and how it has developed on campuses and within
the state.

•

Provide campus movement leaders with a chance to reflect on their successes and to identify
strategies for further development and critical issues emerging in the field.

•

Offer additional campus-selected support from MCC staff to constituents during the tour visits.

The primary element of the Listening Tour will be a visit to each campus by MCC staff. Visits will take
place in September, October, and November; the contents and timing of each visit will be determined in
consultation with our primary contact on the campus.

2008 Strategic Planning Process
Building off the listening tour and as MCC enters it's 20'h anniversary year, the MCC Board of Directors
and constituents will develop an new strategic plan for the movement within higher education.

Upcoming Events
September 14-16, 2007- 15'h Annual Service Leadership Camp, Sherman Lake YMCA, Augusta, MI
November 16, 2007 - Fall Colloquium: Artful Partnership -Development and Service- Kalamazoo

Examples of recent MCC Programs and Events
Carter Partnership Award Winner- June 2007
Michigan Campus Compact is proud to announce that Madonna University and the All Saints
Neighborhood Center, Neighborhood Centers Inc.- Partnership for Community Cohesion received the
2007 Carter Partnership Award. This campus-community partnership was recognized June 20, 2007, at
the Fox Theatre in Detroit at the annual Governor's Service Awards. Four outstanding campuscommunity partnerships are finalists for Michigan's 2007 Carter Partnership Award.
This award winning partnership began 1999, when the All Saints Catholic Church assumed control of a
recently-closed church building and turned it into a community center. Madonna University initially
provided tables, chairs, desks, computers and software, and soon followed with a host of service-learning
activities such as literacy tutoring, health and wellness programming, day care provision for ESL class
attendees, neighborhood surveys and asset-mapping, and a residential camp at Madonna for the Center's
youth pmticipants. Partnership work outside of service-learning includes the provision of technical
assistance by University representatives on the design of early childhood and family-based programs,
client tracking systems, computer literacy training, and the establishment of a computer lab at the Center.
The Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter Pminership Award for Campus-Community Collaboration recognizes
college/university and cotmnunity groups that work together in exceptional ways to
improve people's lives and help college students learn the value of community service in the process. The
$10,000 award will be divided equally by the partners to support their program.

Two Fold Retreat
MCC was excited to host the Faculty Summer Retreat and the Community Service/Service Learning
Directors' Strategic Planning at Eastern Michigan University on June 14, 2007. Faculty from across the
state worked in small groups on issues that have come to the forefront in the service learning movement,
digging down into how to address each piece. Community Service Directors and Service Learning

(

�Directors participated in a workshop helping them to build a strategic plan for their department or office
that matches and supports the institution's sh·ategic plan. This was another opporhmity that MCC is
providing to help those on campus charged with service and civic engagement to be more sh·ategic within
the institution and community.

Mentor Michigan Challenge
First Gentleman Daniel G. Mulhern attended the March 12, 2007 Council of President's Meeting to give
his and the Governor's thanks andre-challenge the campuses to recruit even more mentors for the youth
of our state. The MCC Board of Directors approved the new challenge of an additiona13000 mentors in
the next 3 years. MCC will also be helping with the new MCSC W.K. Kellogg grant to recruit more
college mentors and specifically male mentors:

Investing in College Futures Grant Renewed
MCC in consortia with Michigan's colleges and universities and in collaboration with statewide partners,
proposes to facilitate the implementation of service and service-learning projects through the Investing in
College Futures (ICF) program. This initiative will benefit disadvantaged youth and positively reinforce
the merits of higher education among current students and disadvantaged youth. Support from the
Corporation for National Community Service will assist MCC to implement ICF and the sustainable
service-learning projects it will generate, enhancing the educational landscape for current and future
students.

Michigan Service Scholars Increase Scholarships for College Student Service
In the past three years, MCC has offered $1,000,000 in scholarship money for college students across the
state through an AmeriCorps Education Award program that is called Michigan Service Scholars. We are
pleased to repmi that MCC has been refunded for another three years of the program with an increase in
the scholarships provided. Statiing this next academic year, MCC will be able to offer $450,000 in
scholarships each year, totaling $1,350,000. Special thanks to the MCSC for helping us obtain this grant.
This year MCC will also be piloting a project to provide scholarships to pre service teachers who engage
with service-learning at Central Michigan University.

The Michigan Service Scholars Program [MSS] is offered to students willing to complete 300 hours of
community service during one calendar year will be awarded a $1,000 scholarship, to be used for
qualified educational purposes. Community service hours can be completed during the academic year
and/or over class breaks. To complete 300 hours during a regular academic year, students would need to
average 9.5-l 0 hours of community service per week.

�Michigan Nonprofit Association
Short-term Goals Summary
(July 1 -December 31, 2007)
Mission
The Michigan Nonprofit Association enhances the effectiveness of the Michigan
nonprofit sector in serving society.

Vision
The Michigan Nonprofit Association will be the premier organization advancing the
nonprofit sector in Michigan.

Five Top Critical Issues for MNA (Long-term goals)
1. Integration: MNA's rapid growth including several met·gers with existing
nonprofit organizations has created a complicated and not yet fully
integrated organization. MNA's future operations and goals require
exploration and alignment.
2. Alignment of New Capabilities: Volunteer engagement, leadership
development and technology capacities are critical to the success of nonprofit
organizations' efficiency and effectiveness. MNA must focus, integrate and
expand its delivery of services and products in this area to members and the
sector generally.
3. Awareness: The work of MNA and the nonprofit sector generally is
respected by its members and funders, but not fully understood by those not
currently invested or the general public.
4. Membership: Membership of MNA is inline with other state associations of
its size, but there is potential for growth via retention and expansion.
5. Diversification: Over 80% ofMNA's revenues are comprised of grants,
contributions and sponsorships. While maintaining and expanding
contributions, the current financial structure/business model needs
diversification.

Operating Council Update
August 30, 2007
No Motions Requiring Board Action
1. NPower Network
NPower New York, led by Barbara Chang, now serves as the lead organization within the NPower
Network. Based on discussions among executive directors from all of the affiliates in Philadelphia
in early June, initiatives are underway (led by New York) to standardize programs and services
offered by each affiliate. Future funding from Microsoft will likely be linked to affiliate
participation in developing these standards, or for delivery of services in compliance with these
standards. Andy Wolber will attend the next meeting of affiliates in Dallas on October 10-12.
2. Managed services
On August 28, Adam King and Mark Shaw conve1ied our "pilot" customer, Michigan League for
Human Service, over to our new managed services system. Assuming the pilot is successful, we
will soon conve1i several other clients to the new system. Clients receive remote monitoring,
support, 24x7 help desk, and technology budgeting and planning assistance for a fee of $40 per
desktop per month and $100 per server per month.
Andy Wolber presented details about the service during a "Lunch-and-Learn" session to 15
nonprofit executives at Microsoft's offices in Southfield. Additional sessions are scheduled for
Jackson (September 28), Detroit (October 4), and Lansing (October 5). Airfoil, a public relations
firm, is working in conjunction with MNA marketing staff to promote these events.
3. Battle Creek project
Between July 26 and August 24, NPower presented 10 workshops in Battle Creek for the Nonprofit
Alliance, as pa1i of an initiative funded by the Kellogg Foundation. Additionally, NPower
consultants conducted 17 on-site assessments for area nonprofit organizations. MNA, Nonprofit
Alliance, and NPower staff will meet in late September to plan the next phase of this capacitybuilding initiative.
4. Financial
Sam Singh and Dave Swenson led an initiative to apply for $25,000 in funding from AT&amp;T to
enable NPower Michigan to create a Communication Technology Purchasing Guide. Similarly,
they have led an eff01i to request $450,000 from Kresge Foundation (to be funded over three years)
to support updates and expansion ofNPower Michigan's current Technology Purchasing Guide,
deliver TechTrek to 30 Detroit-based nonprofits, and to subsidize an initial year of the managed
services offering for up to 750 nonprofit organization staff members in Southeastern Michigan.

process. Andy Wolber will attend an NPower network meeting in Philadelphia in early June.
Richard noted that Wayne Mcleroy has been named chair of the NPower operating council
effective July I, 2007, and will be replacing him as outgoing chair. Andy Wolber is coordinating

Public Policy Committee
Meeting
August 31, 2007
Conference Call
Action Items

A. Redesign of the IRS Form 990- The MNA Public Policy Committee reviewed draft
comments on the redesigned Form 990. Attached are comments based on feedback
from members of the committee.
The Public Policy Committee provided its general endorsement of the concepts
included in the draft comments for the IRS.

Discussion Items

A. Nonprofit Day- Erin Skene updated committee members on activities for Nonprofit
-------Juay and encouraged the committee to share the brochure with their networks. The
committee also endorsed Senator Michelle McManus and Director Janet Olszewski as
recipients of the 2007 Nonprofit Champion Award. Both Senator McManus and
Director Olszewski have demonstrated exemplary work in support of the Michigan
nonprofit sector.
B. Regional Councils- Charlene Turner Johnson reported on the activities of the
Southeast Michigan Regional Public Policy Council including development of a
survey on policy issues of interest to nonprofits in the region, a day at the Capitol and
in-district meetings with constituents.

C. Update on state and federal policy issues- Sandi Cotter with Dykema joined the call
to provide an overview of the Charitable Organization and Solicitations Act. The bill
was introduced in the Senate earlier this year. Cotter informed the committee that
staff is working with the attorney general's office and Senator George to move this
bill forward. The committee also discussed the status of the state budget negotiations.
In addition to the media and legislative work in coordination with the Michigan Fiscal
Responsibility Project, it was agreed that staff would investigate the possibility of
incorporating meetings with legislators on the budget at Nonprofit Day.

�***DRAFT***
August 31, 2007

Form 990 Redesign
ATTN: SE:T:EO
Ill! Constitution Ave., N.W.
Washington, DC 20224
Re: Comments on the Redesign of the Form 990
IRS Form 990 Redesign Team:
On behalf of the Michigan Nonprofit Association (MNA) and our more than 1,000
member organizations, thank you for the oppottunity to provide comment on the
proposed redesign of the Form 990. MNA is the collective voice of Michigan's nonprofit
organizations. MNA serves as a statewide network for the sector, a resource center on
effective management practices, and as an advocate for the nonprofit community.
We appreciate the opportunity to comment on this form, which is one of the most
important sources for information on the activities of nonprofits. The following are
concerns that have been raised regarding the proposed Form 990:
General Comments
I. There is great concern in the field and from our members regarding the proposed
timeframe for implementation of the new Fotm 990. To address the numerous concerns
raised regarding this draft, it is necessary to provide a second draft for comment and to
delay implementation fi·om fiscal year 2008 to no earlier than fiscal year 2009.
Considering that this is a comprehensive revision of the form, it is imperative that
nonprofits have another draft to review and adequate time to adjust their record keeping
systems to comply with the various changes.
2. To sufficiently explain the answers provided by organizations, the revised Form 990
should include adequate space to provide further details to explain their answers to the
regulator and others reviewing the form. Although we understand that it will not be
possible to allow for unlimited space to respond, it is important to provide an opportunity
for organizations to explain discrepancies that may be misleading to a reviewer of the
form.

�3. We recommend maintaining the 990 EZ for those organizations with gross receipts of
less then $100,000. We understand that there have been recommendations to eliminate
the 990 EZ and possibly replace it with the summary page of the revised form. However,
to complete the summary page, a nonprofit would need to have accounting processes in
place and complete complex calculations provided elsewhere in the proposed form to
obtain the required information for the summary page. This would substantially increase
the burden upon small organizations in fulfilling this requirement and does not meet the
goal of the IRS to minimize the burden on filing organizations nor the IRS goal to
increase transparency.
4. Wherever a regulatory ruling or a section of the tax code is referenced, the instructions
should include a simple explanation and a reference to a source for more information on
the meaning of the ruling or section of the tax code. This recommendation would both
increase an organization's compliance and decrease the burden of completing and
understanding the Form 990.
Part I Summary Page
5. We have general concern regarding the use of percentages as an indicator of the
efficiency of an organization and we urge the IRS to delete the percentage calculations on
the summary page. The fear is that donors and others who review an organization's Form
990 will compare percentages between different organizations and will use this as a tool
in determining funding of these groups. These percentages are not an accurate depiction
of a nonprofit's activities, and lower or higher percentages do not indicate the success of
the organization's activities. This approach fails to recognize the tremendous variety of
missions within the nonprofit community and would not be an accurate vehicle to
detetmine the effectiveness of the various types of organizations.
Part III Governance
6. We recommend the removal of the portions of this section that are not statutorily
required. Asking organizations to report on best practices is reaching beyond the
boundaries of the statute. Combining the questions statutorily required and those not, will
confuse organizations and possibly decrease compliance. Further this would be another
section that could mislead the public regarding the compliance of nonprofits. The
Michigan Nonprofit Association strongly believes in promoting best practices in the
nonprofit sector. However, we believe that this is the role of capacity building
organizations like MNA not the role of the IRS.

�Glossary
7. Part I-A of Schedule Casks filers to provide a description of the organization's "direct
and indirect political campaign activities." The definition provided in the glossary does
not clearly define indirect vs. direct political campaign activities. It is critical to provide
clear definitions of these types of activities so that 501 (c)(3) nonprofits are not
discouraged from becoming involved in permitted election-related programming.
8. It is imperative that 50l(c)(3) nonprofits have a clear understanding oflobbying
activities. To avoid confusion, the definition for lobbying provided in the glossary should
be replaced with the following commonly referenced definition of the term.
Lobbying is an attempt to influence legislation through direct contact with public
officials at the local, state and federal levels (direct lobbying) or indirectly by
appealing to officials through the general public (grassroots lobbying).

Thank you again for the opportunity to provide this feedback.
Sincerely,

Kyle Caldwell
President and CEO

Discussion Items

A. Volunteer Centers of Michigan Overview:
The Volunteer Centers of Michigan (VCM) is a statewide network of27 full and 4 developing
Volunteer Centers providing 82% of Michigan citizens with access to volunteer resources.
Volunteer Centers mobilize people and resources to deliver creative solutions to community
problems. Through the convening of organizations, the promotion of community service, and the
matching of volunteers to nonprofit programs and events, Volunteer Centers take a leadership
role in addressing key community issues.
Mission: The Volunteer Centers of Michigan strengthens, develops and connects Volunteer
Centers throughout the state.
Vision: The Volunteer Centers of Michigan ensures that all Volunteer Centers in Michigan have
the capacity to positively impact every Michigan Citizen through volunteerism
B. Strategic Plan: VCM had just completed strategic planning process to guide the work for the
next three years. VCM will be focused on the following six vision priorities and action goals
throughout the next year:
I. We created our identity across the state.
2. We defined specific outcomes with data to prove value.
3. We created and implemented professional development opportunities for our members.
4. We obtained sufficient resources to enhance the network and its members.
5. We use the most up-to-date technology for recruitment, fund-raising,
advocacy and meetings.
6. We created a volunteer presence in every community in Michigan.
C. The VCM Update:
In 2006-2007, the VCM initiated a Technology project for the VC in the network. The initiative
was funded with the resources of the VIG that included technology training and grant dollars to
centers to upgrade and enhance their current in-house technology needs.
In addition to the technology efforts, the VCM was able to secure a small grant from the POLF to
develop and implement a VC Director's Leadership Academy. With the support ofthe MNA
Director of Nonprofit Leadership Institute, Robin Lynn Grinnell, a year long agenda of trainings
were developed and offered to the network.

�During this time period the association was able to offer funding, through the VIG, to four new
communities to consider the establishment or re-establishment of a local volunteer center. In
addition, grant awards were also made to three current centers to expand their service delivery
into additional counties.
Michigan Volunteer Center's continue to offer leadership at the national level. Our Volunteer
Center director's have chaired and served on the Volunteer Center National Network Council;
been instrumental in the development of the new POLF Affiliation Agreement; served on
numerous POLF Task Forces among them: United Way Advisory Team, New VC Mentoring
Work Group, the Technology Task Force, The Strengthening Communities Work Group and the
Research and Measurement Task Force. Our service on these various committees, work groups
and task forces has allowed our state and its leadership to be viewed as national leaders.

C. The VCM Executive Committee is comprised of the following members:
Denise Hubbard, Executive Director, Volunteer Connections of Montcalm County -Chair
Jim Pearl, Director, Volunteer Center of Battle Creek-Vice Chair
Martha Bottomley, Executive Director, Volunteer Muskegon!
Cindy Miller, Director, Volunteer Resource Center of Bay County
Chris Kanta, Director, Community Resource Center
D. The LEAGUE Michigan Curriculum by Learning to Give Update:
The LEAGUE Curriculum by Learning to Give is a school and web-based system for service
learning that builds character and empowers young people to "do good" in their community, the
nation, and the world. During the 2006-2007 school year, 43 Michigan schools participated,
representing over 18,000 students, who gave $292,536 in value returned to their local
communities.
Recently, The LEAGUE Michigan has acquired six VISTA members for the upcoming school
year. Four of the members will be placed within the following school districts: Carson
City/Crystal, Jackson, Romulus and Shelby to assist in integrating and sustaining The LEAGUE.
The remaining two will be placed at The LEAGUE Michigan office to assist in the recruitment
and training of new coaches (teachers).
Rollout of The LEAGUE will take place nationwide in November, through various means,
including, but not limited to; letters to each school principals, PSA 'son Cartoon Network, a
Town Hall meeting in New York City with the Department of Education Secretary Margaret
Spelling and ads in Family Circle and Parade Magazine. The LEAGUE Michigan Commission
has decided, in addition to recruiting schools in coordination with the national launch, to focus its
energies on the following key target areas: Calhoun County, Detroit Public Schools, Grand
Rapids, Wayne County and the Upper Peninsula.
To date, The LEAGUE Michigan has raised $55,000 in monetary support from the following:

Executive Committee Meeting
November 28, 2007
Conference Call

Recommendation to the MNA Board of Trustees.

The MNA Executive Committee moved to adopt the revised mission statement:
The Michigan Nonprofit Association increases the capacity of Michigan's
nonprofits to strengthen and transform communities.

�Michigan Nonprofit Association
No Action Required

President's Report
Progress

As noted in the short-term progress report (attached), the MNA staff made significant progress
over the past quatier on developing the new culture for the organization. This was an important
component of the merger and one to which the Board of Trustees requested staff pay particular
attention. Simultaneously, staff focused on developing new revenue sources, expanding
prograntming and partnerships, and increasing the exposure of the work ofMNA. In the midst of
great transformation and growth, the staff is striving to maintain the high volmne, high impact
services members have come to expect from MNA.
Key Challenges

The leadership transition, organizational restructuring and cultural integration, have all consmned
a great deal of time and energy. The internal work, while extremely important for the long-term
health of the organization, has however, diverted time away from some of the very important tasks
that are part and parcel of the normal work ofMNA, especially fundraising. This will be a
targeted focus area of our work in the 3'd and 4111 quarters ofthe fiscal year.
Future Goals

Moving forward, the staff is developing a vision and goals for board consideration at the March,
2008 retreat. The vision and goals will be crafted to look at the long-and short-term effotis
necessary to advance our work. Staff will be utilizing a number of informational resources to
guide our recommendations including, feedback of membership, statewide studies of nonprofits
and management service organizations, listening tours, our member receptions across the state,
and trends data Ji'om a myriad of sources. The day-long March retreat will then focus on
atiiculating a future direction and refining the goals to achieve success.

Welcome and Call To Order:
The meeting was called to order via conference call by the Chair, E. Rogers at 9:05 a.m.

Review of June 5, 2007 MNA Finance Committee Meeting Minutes:
The committee reviewed the June 5, 2007 meeting minutes.

D. Price moved to approve the June 5, 2007 MNA Finance Committee meeting minutes
as presented. E. Blews supported the motion. Motion approved.
Review the Un-Audited June 30, 2007 Financial Statements and Financial
Memorandum:
L. Keefer presented the MNA Financial Statements and Memorandum, consisting of the
Statement of Financial Position and Statement of Activities, for the month ending June 30,
2007. L. Keefer noted that the Cettificate of Deposit had been cashed and the money will be
reinvested. She reported that all expenses and receivables are in line with the projected
amount. Salaries and benefits are down, due to not hiring a Fiscal Officer and with the delay
in hiring someone for the Calhoun Project. It was noted that items regarding NPower will be
reported as a separate item.

NPower Discussion
S. Singh reported that NPower merged with MNA as of January 1, 2007. Prior to the
merger, during October, November and December, 2006, NPower was struggling for cash
flow. With an understanding with the NPower Board of Directors that NPower would pay
the amount back, MNA floated NPower $60,000 to manage their cash flow. MNA's auditor,
D. Ambrose, will show how to capture this amount during the annual auditing process.
A. Wolber reported that NPower is going through a business model transition. He noted that
a year ago NPower had five team members and now there are three staff. The
difference is that several areas, such as administrative services and marketing have been
absorbed by MNA. The core team has two staff focused on consulting and external service
delivery and A. Wolber's focus has been on sales and how to go forward with increasing
business.

�A discussion followed that addressed the problem with funding for NPower. It was noted
that funding in the earlier days were from grants from W. K. Kellogg, Kresge and C. S. Mott
which have been exhausted. Going fotward, conversations are once again being held with
Kresge, W. K. Kellogg, etc. asking for multi-year grants that will fill the gap. Also, NPower
is looking for consistent dollars from the technology community.
Other
No other business was noted.
Adjourn:
The meeting was adjourned at 9:30 a.m.

To the Board of Directors
Michigan Nonprofit Association
During our review of your current financial policies, procedures and internal controls inquiry, we
were observant for opportunities for improvements in the Michigan Nonprofit Association's
(MNA) procedures for financial reporting and operations. We have summarized the observations
for your consideration. With any of the internal control suggestions, MNA must consider the
cost benefit of implementing additional controls. Our comments and recommendations on
these areas are outlined below based on the significance of the issue.

Monthly Reconciliation and Reporting
MNA is in the process of implementing a new database system to track information and
status regarding its members, conference registrations and other miscellaneous
programs. This database currently will not interface with the general ledger which
requires a manual reconciliation between the general ledger and the database on a
monthly basis. This process is currently being done in MS Excel and is time consuming
for the accounting department. We would recommend that the Board of Directors and
management evaluate upgrading the general ledger to a system that is capable of
interfacing with the new database system. With an effective system, current staff time
spent reconciling these databases could be reduced and allow them to perform other
critical MNA tasks. Based upon review of the American Society of Account Executive's,
ListServe and experience with other Associations, Sage MIP Fund Accounting and Great
Plains are commonly used general ledger systems by Associations. MNA would have to
research the new database's capabilities to interface with these general ledger packages.
Plante &amp; Moran would be happy to set up a meeting with our management consulting
group to provide an objective view on appropriate system selection and internal control
enhancements.
In addition, MNA has to manually record cash receipts, cash disbursements, grant activity
and payroll. With a more sophisticated general ledger system, MNA may have the option
to automate the journal entries for these transactions and further reduce staff time
involved to create monthly financial statements. This would enable timelier reporting to
management and the board of directors.

Response: MNA is in the process of implementing a new database system to
track information and status regarding its members, conference registrations
and other miscellaneous programs. While this database is not linl•ed to the
general ledger and additional reconciliation is required to track payments
and receivables, MNA staff has implemented a standard contract
(Attachment A) to be used by all staff when they perform any outside
consulting duties, and we have strengthened the invoice management by
centralizing the responsibility within the accounting department. In the past,
the program manager was responsible for any invoicing needed for their
program or conference, we have eliminated this by having the bookl•eeper
prepare, manage and follow-up on all outstanding invoices. This also
reduces the amount of time needed to process the payments as they are
received by MNA. With the additional reporting abilities of a new database
system, the checks and balances for monthly reconciliation will be decreased
and give the accounting staff more time to perform critical tasks.

�December 14, 2006

To the Board of Directors
Michigan Nonprofit Association

Online Payments
MNA collects payments on-line which requires confidential information being transferred
electronically. It is our understanding that MNA out sources the processing of these
online transactions to Authorize.Net. We would recommend that MNA periodically
review the safeguards that Authrorize.Net has to make sure that your member
information is appropriately safeguarded.

Response: MNA staff collects payments on-line using an out sourced
company to collect data. The accounting staff does not have access to any
confidential information provided through this company. In order to refund
or credit a customer account, the accounting staff has to contact the
customer directly to obtain the information needed to process those requests.
Howevet·, as part of the annual audit, MNA will review the privacy policy of
the out sourced company to verify the confidential information is being
handled appropriately.

Employee Deferrals for the 40 I (I&lt;) Plan
We discussed employee deferrals with the director of finance and operations and based
on our discussion it is our understanding that MNA is in compliance based on their
discussions with the third party administrator. However, we just wanted to inform you
of the Department of Labor (DOL) requirements regarding employee deferrals. DOL
regulation requires that benefit plans remit employee contributions to the plan as soon as
they can be reasonably segregated from the employer's general assets. In no case can this
amount of time exceed IS business days after the end of the month in which the
amounts were withheld. The IS business day rule, however, is not a safe harbor. The
general rule has been interpreted as being as little as two days where an entity has an
outside payroll service.

Response: The Department of Labor requirements, in which benefit plans
remit employee contributions to the plan as soon as they can be reasonably
segregated from the employer's general assets is the practice that MNA staff
have adopted. Prior problems occurred when an employee didn't return the
required paperworl' to be enrolled into the plan in a timely matter. With
any deferrals, they have to be submitted together has a whole, and partial
payments are not accepted, maldng an impact on the entire plan when
paperwork isn't completed. New enrollment papenvork is now given to the
staff member at least one month prior to enrollment for completion. This
process along with the addition of the third party administrator's interest
only account, where all contributions will be allocated until which time the
employee chooses their desired funds has eliminated any delay in the
enrollment and payment process for all deferrals. Timely payments of
bimonthly deferrals will insure the success of the 401 (k) plans for all
enrolled employees.

Financial Reporting According to Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles (GAAP)
Membership Dues - Based on our understanding and experience with membership
dues we would expect them to be recorded as unrestricted revenue. Currently
membership dues are being reflected as temporarily restricted revenue in MNA's
financial statements. We have provided the following information for MNA to evaluate
and consider based on your membership dues' situation.

GAAP requires dues to be recorded as revenue over the period covered by the
membership. This means dues received in advance are deferred in the balance sheet
when received and amortized to income ratably over the membership period - usually a
year.
It is usually not appropriate to record a receivable for unpaid dues applicable to future
periods, since, if a member withdraws from membership, there is likely no legal
obligation on the part of the member to pay. Only if members are required by contract,
law, or some other enforceable requirement to pay dues would the test of an asset be
met for such a receivable.
There are many Not-for-Profit organizations that have "members" who pay "dues," but
the organizations exist for purposes other than, or in addition to, providing member
services. Many civic, consumer, environmental, cultural, charitable, and other nonprofit
organizations collect what they call membership dues, but these dues are, in fact, often
tantamount to contributions, since "members" receive no significant benefits from being
members. In this case, these "dues" should be accounted for in the same way as
unrestricted contributions. For organizations that do furnish some benefits to members such as a magazine, the right to purchase items at a discount (e.g., opera tickets, books),
or the right to attend and vote at meetings - it would be appropriate to allocate the dues
revenue between the portion representing true dues and a portion representing a
contribution to the broader purposes of the organization. Each portion would then be
accounted for separately.
The question may arise as to whether it is appropriate for a membership organization to
accrue billed but uncollected dues receivable from members. The answer is, usually, no.
The guidance in FAS I 16 to accrue unconditional promises to give (pledges receivable)
cannot be used to justify accruing bona fide membership dues. FAS I 16 deals only with
contributions; bona fide dues are not contributions, and thus are not covered by FAS
116.

That reduces the question to one of whether an organization member who has been
billed for, but not yet paid, dues has a legal obligation to make the payment. If there is
no legal obligation, any dues receivable amount would not meet the definition of an asset
and accrual would be inappropriate. Normally, a legal obligation to pay would arise only
if the member had already received substantial member services from the organization.
However, most organizations will not provide substantial services to members who have
not yet paid their dues. To argue for recording a receivable for unpaid dues where no
services have been rendered would be equivalent to a business accruing a trade account
receivable from a customer immediately upon receipt of a purchase order, rather than
waiting until goods are shipped or services rendered, as is required by GAAP.
Additionally, in most cases, a member who does not wish to pay dues can simply resign
from the organization without obligation. Some membership organizations argue that
"xx% of our members regularly renew their membership and pay dues, and therefore,
we will accrue that percentage of the billed amounts." Under the accounting rules this
logic is not acceptable for the reasons discussed above. Only if there were some legally
binding obligation on the part of the member would accrual be appropriate.

Response: The question arose regarding whether or not membership dues
that have been billed for, but not yet paid, have any legal obligation for
payment. Although there is no legal obligation to pay renewing membership
dues, our external auditor, Mr. Dave Ambrose is comfortable in accepting
the current practice of recording a receivable for membership dues invoiced.
The asset line item that this creates is less than 1% of MNA's total assets, and
therefore does not generate any future concerns with our auditor. In keeping
this practice, the accounting department has a method for double checking
invoiced and paid membership dues. This allows us to better determine the
dollar amount associated with renewing and non-renewing members. It is
our recommendation that we keep the current practice of recording a
receivable for all invoiced membership dues.

(

Revenue - Revenue for a not-for-profit entity is recorded in two different ways,
depending on the 'characteristics surrounding the revenue. It is either an exchange
transaction or a contribution. MNA has been treating all grants as contribution revenue.
We would recommend using the following table to evaluate each grant to ensure the
proper accounting treatment.

A grant may have characteristics of both, so judgment may need to be applied to
determine which category the grant falls into. If it is determined to be an exchange
transaction then you would only record revenue when an expense in incurred and if cash
is received prior to incurring the grant expense, then deferred revenue would be
recorded. This type of accounting is how federal grants are usually accounted for.
If it is concluded that the revenue is a contribution, then net asset classes have to be
accounted for, for example temporarily restricted, permanently restricted or
unrestricted net assets. However, the Board can designate unrestricted net assets for a
particular purpose. Based on our review of the financial information, MNA is already
classifying assets as either temporarily restricted or unrestricted.

Response:
MNA staff is currently following the generally accepted
accounting principles when recording revenue that is received. MNA staff
evaluates each grant to ensure that the proper accounting treatment has been
applied. The majority of MNA's grants are considered a contribution, and
are recorded as restricted or temporarily restricted funds. An accounting of
all expenses are recorded against that fund on a monthly basis. The
exception for this would be the federal grant money that is considered an
exchange transaction. The Grants Manager currently records all expenses
on a monthly basis and then draws down from the available grant dollars.
This money is then deposited directly into the checldng account.

Conference Registration - Currently MNA is accounting for conference fees on the
cash basis of accounting. This is acceptable method during the year, however if
significant registration fees have been collected prior to June 30 in any year for an event
taking place after June 30, the cash received should be recorded as deferred revenue or
if amounts are due from unpaid attendees it is appropriate to treat as an accounts
receivable.

Response: MNA staff is accounting for conference registration fees on the
cash basis of accounting. However; conference registrations collected prior
to the end of a fiscal year that are for an event in the next fiscal year are
recorded as defened t·evenue until the event occurs. The same is true for
membership dues that are collected prior to the end of the fiscal year, but are
renewing for the next fiscal yeat·. An example would be if any July
membership dues were t·enewed in June, then the membet·ship fees would be
deferred until July. With that any conference registration m· other
outstanding invoice that has not been collected by the end of the fiscal year
are recorded as an accounts receivable and handled accordingly.

Policies and Procedures
Monthly CPA Review - Currently MNA has an outside CPA prepare the bank
reconciliation and test all cleared checks and wire transfers to verify they are valid MNA
transactions. This is a key control since the book keeper and director of finance and
operations have access to blank checks and can update the general ledger.
Journal Entries - Currently the Organization does not have a Board-approved policy
for journal entries. All general journal entries are given to directors to review the activity.
During this review, a random sample of entries should be selected and agreed to
supporting documentation. In addition, Peachtree does not allow for journal entries to be
numbered. If a new general ledger system is implemented we would recommend
journal entry numbers are reviewed to ensure that there is not a skip in sequence.

Response: In addition to the outside CPA preparing the bank reconciliation
and testing all cleared checl's to verify that they are valid, MNA staff would
recommend that the CPA randomly check the journal entries recorded by
the accounting staff. Journal entries are currently not numbered in
Peachtree and MNA staff continues to look at new software that would bettet·
record journal entries.
Cell Phone Use by Not-for-Profit Employees - One reason the intermediate
sanction rules, also referred to as the excess benefit rules, were put into place was to
eliminate excess or unreasonable employee compensation. When considering
compensation it is important to include and consider all de minimis fringe benefits. One
area that must be considered as a fringe benefit is cell phone use by employees. Since
MNA is paying for the President's cell phone then the president has additional

6

�December 14, 2006

To the Board of Directors

compensation that may need to be reported on the W-2's, 941 's, and 990 if it is also used
for personal use. The other option is for the president to reimburse MNA for personal
use calls and then it would not need to be r.eported as additional income. Due to the
high penalties that can be imposed on the disqualified person and your entity, it is
important that your entity review its cell phone policy to avoid paying for personal phone
calls.

Response: MNA's President and CEO will determine the nse of cell phones
on a per employee basis and designate a set amount that is to be reimbursed.
It is recommended that MNA's President and CEO be reimbursed at a one
hundred dollar per month level, and Vice Presidents, Affiliation Executive
Directors, Executive Directors, and Public Policy Directors (as determined
by the President and CEO) would be reimbursed at a seventy five dollar per
month level. The President and CEO would then also determine which
employees would be provided with Smartphones or an allowance toward
other cellular equipment. This amount would be no more than two hundred
dollars per phone, and the price would be prorated to an employee if they
were to leave the organization within a year's time. All employees designated
for cellulat· reimbursement would fill out an employee expense form on a
monthly basis to receive reimbursement. If an employee that is not
designated for cellular reimbursement incurs cost for cell phone usage, the
employee would provide documentation of usage and include the charges on
an employee expense reimbursement form.

Policies and Procedures (Continued)
Credit Card Use - MNA currently has issued company credit cards to several
directors. Company issued credit cards put the burden on MNA to pay the full credit
card bill and collect proper business support. If the business support is not evident, then
MNA has to collect the non-business amount charged on the credit card from the
employee. We would recommend MNA review its credit card policy and consider
whether company credit cards are a necessity or consider creating a more stringent
policy where if receipts are not submitted timely by an employee the credit card could
be revoked.

Response: MNA's President and CEO will determine which staff will be
issued company credit cards. It is recommended that MNA provide credit
cards to the President and CEO, Vice Presidents, Affiliation Executive
Directors, Executive Directors, and Public Policy Directors.
This
recommendation is determined by the amount of travel that each t'ole entails.
A credit card policy has been established and each card holder will be
required to sign a copy of the policy stating that they understand the content.
(Attachment B &amp; C)
Currently the Vice President of Operation's credit card is located with the
accounting department, and can be accessed for the purchase of computer

equipment, online ordering, registrations, travel arrangements or
publications. It is the recommendation that staff utilize this available credit
card for the above mentioned purchases.
MNA staff recommend that MNA will make available on a rare and limited
basis, a travel advance process (Attachment D) to be used only
by staff lacking a personal or company credit card , or without resoul'Ces to
underwrite the planned costs for travel. This advance form will only be used
in extenuating circumstances, with stl'ingent rules that are to be enforced by
the accounting department with help from the President and CEO. By
completing the travel advance form, MNA accounting staff can issue funds
prior to the travel, therefore minimizing any out of pocket expenses. All
receipts and any unused funds will be submitted to the accounting
department upon returning to the office. Staff issued advance funds will be
responsible for accurate, timely and appropriate documentation of the
funds. Staff will be invoiced fm· any disallowed costs. The accounting
department will continue to process and issue payments in a timely manner
for all other expenses incuned by the employee with bi-monthly check runs.
MNA staff also has implemented a travel policy. (Attachment E) This policy
will ensure that staff uses the set guidelines when traveling for the
organization. This will minimize the increasing costs of travel.
MNA staff also recommends that a yearly evaluation on usage and
availability of credit cards be put in place. It is also the recommendation
that a stringent policy be put in place on the timeliness to submit receipts and
the proper business support fo1· all credit card purchases. It should include
the terminology where if receipts are not submitted timely by an employee
then the credit card could be revoked.
MNA staff also recommends that a petty cash fund be created for all satellite
offices. This will decrease the amount of money an employee would need to
be out of pocket fo1· miscellaneous expenses including office supplies, postage,
and meeting refreshments. This fund will be reconciled on a monthly basis,
and will have strict policies for use and accountability. It is recommended
that if funds are being abused, the fund be removed immediately.
Merchandise Sales &amp; Inventory - MNA sells merchandise at conferences and
currently has implemented certain controls over the cash collection process. We would
recommend adding one additional internal control procedure which includes the
accounting department reconciling the inventory list to the cash received to verify that all
cash collected is transferred to MNA appropriately.

Response: After an event where the sale of merchandise takes place, the
bookkeeper reconciles the cash received and verifies the inventory list is
accurate with the sales reported. This practice was implemented earlier this
year.
8

Expense Reimbursement - For consistency purposes, the board and management
should consider establishing a policy for the dollar amount of expense reimbursement
that requires a receipt. This amount needs to be within the IRS guidelines; however, a
threshold lower than the IRS guidelines could be established. In addition, a policy on the
amount of time an employee has to submit for reimbursement could be established to
make sure all current expenses are recorded timely.

Response: MNA Staff J'ecommends that a policy for receipt retention be
implemented. This policy would only apply to tolls, parking, and such
instances where you might not be able to retain a receipt. The amount that is
recommended would be for any purchase under Ten Dollars ($10.00); a
receipt will not be required. This policy will not cover any meals that an
employee may incur, as MNA staff requires itemized receipts for all meals as
stated in the travel policy.
Payroll - MNA pays hourly employees currently. For example, hourly employees paid
on the 30'h of the month would be paid through the 30'h of the month. This creates
some estimation by the accounting department since they have to call payroll hours into
the payroll company around the 25'h of the month. We recommend management and
the board consider paying hourly employees in arrears. This would only affect them on
their first pay and then they would consistently receive a pay check after that time. The
current method is a risk if the hourly employee does not work the hours they were paid
and they were to terminate their position. MNA would have to attempt to collect the
overpayment back from the terminated employee.
In addition, we recommend an individual outside the accounting department review the
final payroll registers to ensure only valid employees are paid and that employees paid
are paid the correct amount. Testing performed can be done on random basis for each
pay period. This is critical since the director of finance and operations call the payroll
hours and personnel information to the payroll company and has the ability to update the
general ledger.

Response: MNA staff will work with the external payroll company to
implement a better system in getting monies returned prior to the payroll
date. Currently, payroll is reported to the external payroll company several
days in advance of the payroll date, reviewed and entered before any
transactions take place. There has been an instance in the past, where a
terminated employee was paid in error, upon reviewing the payroll
documents the error was found and the transaction was reversed prior to the
payroll date. Therefore, the terminated employee was unaware of any
p1·oblems or payments. MNA staff would recommend that the extemal

9

payroll company handle the direct deposits more efficiently. This process
would require an additional fee, however; the amount of time that it would
save the accounting department in an instance where someone was paid in
error would be worth the additional cost.
Monthly Time Sheets - Employees are required to submit monthly time sheets to
support vacation hours used. Historically, it has been a challenge for the accounting
department to collect these timely. It is important that these are collected timely to
ensure employees are not taking vacation time they have not accrued. We recommend
management enforce the current policy.

Response: MNA staff continues to enforce the collection of timcsheets on a
monthly basis. Correspondence with staff after the timcsheet deadline has
been increased to insure that any time reported to a grant can be accurately
reported on a monthly basis and vacation hours can be accrued accurately.
MNA staff will continue to enforce these policies to ensure reporting of time
be up submitted timely.

Accounting for a Merger
On October 9, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued two
Exposure Drafts intended to improve the accounting and disclosures for mergers and
acquisitions (M&amp;A) by not-for-profit organizations. The proposals reflect the Board's
commitment to meet the reporting needs of the not-for-profit community and to ensure
that financial statement users have access to decision-useful information.
Recent studies estimate that the total asset base of the United States' not-for-profit
sector would make it the sixth largest economy in the world. Similar studies suggest that
in the U.S. alone, the number of not-for-profit entities reporting financial results grew by
68% between 1993 and 2003, representing approximately 9% of the U.S. gross
domestic product (GOP).
"The not-for-profit-sector makes up a sizable portion of reporting entities and GOP in
the U.S. and the accounting for M&amp;A activity can have a significant affect on the reported
financial position of these organizations," said Michael Crooch, FASB member. "However,
today, there is limited accounting guidance for not-for-profits relating to M&amp;A activity.
That limited guidance has often led to different financial statement results for similar
economic transactions and events."
The Exposure Drafts address these concerns by proposing accounting standards that
would produce financial information that is more consistent, comparable, and faithfully
representative of the underlying economics of M&amp;A events. Specifically, today's proposal,
Not-for-Profit Organizations: Mergers and Acquisitions, would eliminate the use of the
pooling-of-interests method of accounting by not-for-profit organizations, in which assets
acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at "carryover" amounts recorded on the
books of acquired organizations. This proposal would instead require the application of
the acquisition method to all mergers and acquisitions by a not-for-profit organization. In
applying that method, the proposal generally would require that not-for-profit
organizations:
I. Recognize the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed that compose
the business or nonprofit activity acquired in a merger or acquisition;
2. Measure those assets and liabilities at their fair values as of the acquisition date;
3. Recognize either goodwill of the acquired business or nonprofit activity or the
contribution inherent in the merger or acquisition as a residual based on the value
of the identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and the consideration
transferred (if any); and
4. Disclose information to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the
nature and financial effects of the merger or acquisition.

12

�December 14, 2006

To the Board of Directors
Michigan Nonprofit Association

The other Exposure Draft, Not-for-Profit Organizations: Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets Acquired in a Merger or Acquisition, proposes accounting guidance for those
intangible assets after a merger or acquisition. The proposed guidance is consistent with
the accounting for all other acquired intangible assets-whether purchased or donated, or
whether acquired individually or as part of a group.
Under this proposal, not-for-profit organizations would be required to provide:
a. Consistent and comparable information about identifiable intangible assets
acquired by not-for-profit organizations in a merger or acquisition; and
b. More faithfully representative and relevant information about events resulting in
impairments of goodwill that a not-for-profit organization has acquired.
"Similar to our improvements to the accounting for business combinations in the forprofit sector, including those proposed in the June 2005 Exposure Draft, today's
proposals will provide financial statement users with more consistent and comparable
information that more reliably portrays the underlying economics of M&amp;A transactions by
not-for-profit organizations," said Alicia Posta, the FASB staffer managing the not-forprofit mergers and acquisitions project.
Copies of each of today's proposals may be downloaded from the FASB's website at
www.fasb.org. The Financial Accounting Standards Board invites public comment on this
and all Exposure Drafts. The comment deadline for today's Exposure Drafts is January
29, 2007.
Until this is finalized MNA would have to evaluate whether a merger should be
accounted for under the pool of interests method or the purchase method.

New Statements on Auditing Standards
Statement on Auditing Standards I03 - Audit Documentation - In December
2005, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) Audit Standards
Board issued a new Statement on Auditing Standards (SAS), which superseded SAS 96.
The effective date is for audits of financial statements for periods ending on or after
December 31, 2006 (fiscal year ending September 30, 2007 for MNA).
This standard clarifies and increases the requirements that auditors must follow in
obtaining, managing, and retaining documentation that supports the audit opinion. It
prescribes the form, content, and extent of audit documentation necessary to support
the audit work. It also redefines the method used to determine the dating of the
auditor's report and creates a "lock down" date for the audit file.

13

�December 14,2006

To the Board of Directors
Michigan Nonprofit Association

New Statements on Auditing Standards (Continued)
The substantive implication of this new standard is that it is likely that auditors will be
more specific in their requests for information from MNA and will require MNA to be
well prepared for the audit prior to the start of the year-end field work.
Statement on Auditing Standards I 12 - Communication of Internal Control
Related Matters Noted in an Audit - During May 2006, the American Institute of
Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) Audit Standards Board issued a new Statement on
Auditing Standards (SAS), which superseded SAS 60. The effective date is for audits of
financial statements for periods ending on or after December 31, 2006 (fiscal year ending
June 30, 2007 for MNA).

This standard establishes requirements and provides guidance to enhance the auditor's
communication responsibility to the audit committee concerning significant deficiencies
and material weaknesses in internal control noted in a financial statement audit. The
standard defines internal control deficiency, significant deficiency (this term replaces and
therefore eliminates the term "reportable condition"), and material weakness. Internal
control deficiencies that constitute significant deficiencies and material weaknesses will
be reported to the audit committee in writing and will be made no later than 60 days
following the release date of the auditor's report on the financial statements.
A control deficiency exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow
management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions,
to prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a control
deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that adversely affects the entity's
ability to initiate, authorize, record, process, or report financial data reliably in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles such that there is more than a
remote likelihood that a misstatement of the entity's financial statements that is more
than inconsequential will not be prevented or detected by the entity's internal control.
A material weakness is a significant deficiency, or combination of significant deficiencies,
that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the financial
statements will not be prevented or detected by the entity's internal control.
The substantive implication of this new standard is that it is likely that auditors will be
required to officially report on more internal control-related items than in the past. This
is because the new audit standard lowers the threshold that is used to determine if a
control deficiency must be officially reported.

New Statements on Auditing Standards (Continued)
Statement on Auditing Standards I04 to I I I • The Risk Assessment Standards ·
The AI CPA issued Statements on Auditing Standards (SAS I04 - SAS Ill) that will
substantially affect the auditing process. The effective date for the MNA audit will be for
the audit of the financial statements for the year ending June 30, 2008. The ramifications
for the audit process are substantial.

Government Auditing Standards Exposure Draft (2006 Revision) · The
Government Accountability Office (GAO) is finalizing its revisions to Government
Auditing Standards (the Yellow Book). These revisions will be issued before the end of
2006. MNA would be required to be audited under the Yellow Book requirements in
addition to the audit standards issued by the Auditing Standards Board if their federal
expenses exceed $500,000. These Yellow Book changes will be effective for the June
30, 2007 audit. The planned changes are substantive and will impact audit approach,
audit documentation, and audit reporting. Some likely impacts of the changes include:

•

financial information for audit

Accountability and Governmental Issues
The Senate Finance Committee (SFC) requested the panel on the Nonprofit Sector (an
independent national panel) to advise the SFC and make recommendations for improving
governance and accountability in the not-for-profit sector. The end result from this
panel was the issuance of "The Final Report to Congress and the Non-Profit Sector" that
was issued in June, 2005.
Because of the complexity of the issues, the Panel continued to analyze additional areas.
This resulted in the issuance of a "Supplement to the Final Report to Congress and the
Non-Profit Sector" In April, 2006. The supplement covers nine topics as follows:

•

International grant-making
o Since the 9/ I I/0 I attacks, there is increased concern about assistance
being diverted to terrorist activity.
o Recommendation is to follow the currently existing "Principles of
International Charity".

15

Accountability and Governmental Issues (Continued)
•

Charitable solicitation
o There are long term concerns about fraudulent solicitations and
professional fundraisers whose efforts primarily benefit themselves, not a
charity.
o Recommendation for Congress is to create a national uniform electronic
filing system for solicitation registration and annual reporting.
o Recommendations for various groups to revise "The Model Charitable
Solicitation Act" to address current practices including the increased use
of the internet.

•

Compensation of trustees of charitable trusts
o The issue is whether trustee compensation is excessive when compared
with other similar situations.
o Recommendation is to clarify that even if compensation is specified in a
trust instrument, it is not determinative of whether the compensation is
excessive.

•

A prudent investor standard
o Regulations regarding prudent investments are out of date and don't
reflect modern portfolio theory in asset management.
o Recommendation is to revise regulations to reflect the modern prudent
investor standards. However, Congress should not enact a federal
standard that would be enforced by the IRS.

•

Nonprofit conversion transactions
o Intense pressures have led to an increasing number of non-profit hospitals
and other entities converting their assets to for profit status. The concern
is the conversions can result in services in the for profit entity being quite
different than the non-profit entity.
o No Congressional action is recommended but the IRS is urged to
vigorously enforce existing current legal prohibitions against private
inurement, etc.

•

Taxation on sales of donated property
o The IRS has noted instances of taxpayers over-estimating the value of their
property which is donated to charities.
o The recommendation is to strengthen the requirements for qualified
appraisals for the value of donated property. Income from sales of
donated assets by not-for-profits should continue to be considered nontaxable.

Accountability and Governmental Issues (Continued)
•

Consumer credit counseling organizations
o There have been numerous reported instances of consumer credit
counseling organizations (CCO's) abusing their non-profit status. Some
have preyed upon vulnerable individuals through deceptive and fraudulent
practices.
o Recommendation is to remove current exemptions for tax exempt CCO's
and continuing to have the IRS vigorously enforce actions against CCO's
that are not operating to further a charitable purpose.

•

Disclosure of unrelated business activities
o Concern is that some entities are understating their tax liability for
"unrelated business income" and current reporting makes it difficult to
monitor an organization's business activities.
o It is recommended that the IRS should amend Form 990 to increase
information regarding unrelated business activities.

•

Federal court equity powers and standing to sue
o The regulation of charitable fiduciaries is primarily a State rather than a
Federal function. It has been suggested by some that the U.S. Tax Court
should be given the same power that States currently have.
o It is recommended that Congress not expand current law regarding
charitable fiduciaries.

In addition, the Form 990 has been revised by the IRS. Please refer to the comment
below regarding changes to Form 990 and compensation reporting.
We continue to recommend that all not-for-profit organizations have the following items
in place:
Ethics policy for all staff, board members, and volunteers
Conflict of interest policy for all staff and board members
Whistle blower policy
Board approval of all executive compensation and documentation of comparability
data or other justification
• Travel expense reimbursement policy for all staff, board members, and volunteers.
•
•
•
•

In addition, we recommend that organizations very carefully review the Form 990 prior
to filing to be sure all required information is reported clearly and accurately.
We expect new legislation at some point; however, it will probably be enacted in more
of a piecemeal manner than originally anticipated. As usual, we will work to keep you
informed about new developments and advise you about appropriate action items for
your organization.

Changes to Form 990 Affect Compensation Reporting Beyond Top
Executives
The IRS released the new 2005 Federal Form 990, which includes dramatic changes
designed to elicit more information on compensation and related-party transactions.
In addition to the reporting of compensation paid to officers, directors, trustees, and key
employees (employees with powers or responsibilities similar to an officer), the new
form also requests similar information on compensation and benefits paid and loans to
former officers, directors, trustees, and key employees. Also, the Schedule A. which is
required for Sec. 50 I(c)(3) organizations, now requires disclosure of the top five
independent contractors that are paid more than $50,000. This is in addition to the
current requirement to disclose the top five professional service providers paid more
than $50,000.
Furthermore, the new form asks about family and business relationships among officers,
directors, trustees, key employees, highest compensated employees (top five employees
receiving more than $50,000), professional service providers, and independent
contractors. For example, if your organization uses a professional fundraiser, the IRS
wants to know if the company is related to any of your board members or their families.
In a related vein, the new form also includes a question on whether the organization has
a written conflict-of-interest policy. While a conflict-of-interest policy is not legally
required for exempt status, it is recommended. Lack of such a policy may raise a red flag
with the IRS.
Compensation to be reported on the 990 includes salary and fringe benefits, including
taxable and nontaxable benefits. In the case of deferred compensation benefits, the
amount deferred on the executive's behalf is reportable at the time the organization pays
or becomes obligated to pay, as well as at the time when the executive receives a
disbursement. Compensation paid through third-party management companies or
professional employer organizations must also be disclosed.
One of the most significant changes relates to the reporting of compensation paid by
related organizations. In the past, organizations were required to report compensation
paid by related organizations to officers, directors, trustees, or key employees that
received total compensation of more than $100,000 from the organization and all related
organizations if the related organization paid more than $10,000. For the 2005 filing, the
requirement has been significantly expanded. Total compensation paid by a related
organization must be disclosed for officers, directors, trustees, key employees, highestpaid employees, professional service providers, and independent contractors of an
organization who receive more than $50,000 of compensation. Furthermore, the
definition of a related organization has also been expanded from "owned or controlled"
to include organizations with a "close connection," whether the related organizations is
taxable or tax-exempt.

To the Board of Directors
Michigan Nonprofit Association
A close connection can be defined as:
•
•
•
•
•

Common control of one or more of the organizations
Direct or indirect control of one organization by another through common
governance
Direct or indirect ownership of one organization by another
Control of one organization by another through authority to approve budgets or
expenditures
Coordination of operations as to facilities, programs, employees, or other
activities

The instructions to the 990 are explicit that failure to fully complete this portion of the
return may subject both the organization and the individuals responsible to penalties for
failure to file a complete return. The instructions also say that noting "information
available upon request" is not acceptable. The penalties for filing an incomplete return
are $20 per day, not to exceed the smaller of $10,000 or 5 percent of gross receipts for
the year, for organizations with revenue of $1 million or less. For larger organizations,
the penalty is $1 00 per day, with a maximum penalty of $50,000. Penalties may also be
imposed on the individuals responsible for the filing of an incomplete return at $10 per
day up to $5,000 total.
With the increased government and public scrutiny of nonprofit organizations,
particularly in the area of executive compensation, it is prudent to make every effort to
comply with these disclosure requirements.

Michigan Nonprofit Association
Travel Policy
As of November 27, 2007

�Statement of Purpose
With the establishment of this policy, the Michigan Nonprofit Association (MNA) seeks
to save costs and simplify the travel process by providing guidelines to follow in order to
protect the interests of both the employee and the company. This document serves to
clarify the means by which travel should be arranged and parameters that employees
must adhere to. It is company policy to reimburse employees for ordinary, necessary and
reasonable travel expenses when directly connected with or pertaining to the transaction
of company business. Employees are asked to exercise prudent business judgment
regarding expenses covered by this policy. When submitting expense reports to claim
reimbursement, employees are expected to neither gain nor lose financially.

Responsibility and Enforcement
MNA realizes that business travel can, at times, be costly. With this understanding, an
organized and clear process for submitting expenses is cmcial to ensure all expenses are
reimbursed in a timely manner.
MNA employees who incur travel expenses are required to comply with this policy.
Employees submitting expenses that are not in compliance with this policy risk delayed,
partial or forfeited reimbursement. Cases of significant abuse will be investigated and
may result in disciplinaty action up to and including employee termination.
Managers with approval authority are responsible for assuring that all policies detailed
herein, as well as applicable business policies, have been adhered to prior to approving
employee expense reports. Any deviations must be explained on the employee's expense
report with the approval of the reviewer noted to the accounting department. The
accounting department is responsible for ensuring that any expenses reimbursed or paid
for by the company are in compliance with this travel policy. Reimbursements for
expenses that are not in compliance with this policy require approval of the President and
CEO.
Review and updating of the Travel Policy is the responsibility of the President and CEO
and senior management.
Any questions or concerns regarding this travel policy should be addressed to the Human
Resource and Budget Manager.

�Air Travel
Class of Service: All employees should travel in coach class unless they receive a free
upgrade.
Lowest Available Airfare: All airline tickets must be booked at the lowest available
airfare. The following criteria will be utilized to determine lowest available airfare.
• The flight's departure or arrival time is within two hours before or after the
requested depatiure or arrival time;
• One stop or connecting flights should be considered if savings of $100 or more
can be achieved;
• Employees may not specify a preferred carrier.
Electt·onic Tickets (e-tickets): To capitalize on the cost benefits and convenience, use
of electronic ticketing will be the primary method of ticketing.
Frequent Flyer Programs: Traveling employees may retain frequent flyer program
benefits earned.

Lodging
Hotel Selection: Employees should select good quality, moderately priced hotels when
traveling. While conference associated lodging are not always the most cost effective
method for all conferences/meetings. Employees are encouraged to maximize savings by
staying at reasonably priced hotel whenever possible, provided that additional travel
needs required do not exceed the savings of the alternate hotel.
Room Type: A single room with a private bath in a moderately priced business class
hotel or motel is the company standard. Reimbursement for suites or luxmy
acc01nn10dations requires written petmission from the employee's manager prior to
incuning the expense. When at all possible, employees are encouraged to share rooms
with other staff members to increase the savings to the organization.
Cancellation: All rooms will be guaranteed for late anival. Employees must cancel the
room reservation, by required deadline, if they will not need the room, to avoid a "noshow" charge. If the cancellation is made directly with the hotel, employees should
request and retain a "cancellation number" as documentation of the transaction.

�Car Rentals
Cars should be rented by employees when other means of transportation are unavailable,
more costly, or impractical. It is recommended that any travel over 200 miles round trip
utilize a rental car.
Preferred Companies: Employees should choose the most competitive rate from the
choices given.
Size Limit: All rentals should be for intermediate size cars or smaller, unless 3 or more
people are traveling together or if an upgrade is provided by the rental company at no
cost.
Car Rental Insurance: For all rentals optional theft and collision insurance premiums
are not required for employees that are licensed drivers. Optional theft and collision
insurance premium charges are not reimbursable.
Refueling: Employees are expected to refuel cars prior to returning them to the rental
company. This practice can save as much as 50% of the gasoline cost.

Other Transpotiation
Personal Car: Employees may utilize personal cars for business travel. It is
recommended that all mileage that does not exceed 200 miles round trip can utilize a
personal car and any mileage over 200 miles needs approval from their manager to utilize
your personal car. The use of personal cars for business will be reimbursed at current
MNA mileage reimbursement rate. This mileage allowance covers all auto costs (e.g.
gasoline, repairs, insurance, etc.) other than parking and tolls.
Ride Sharing: If two or more individuals are traveling to the same location, it is
recommended that the employee share a ride with others. If this option is available, but
you choose not to ride share due to personal reasons (staying longer at a location, going
to a personal destination before/after an event, etc.), then you will forfeit the mileage
reimbursement. However, if you are unable to ride share due to company business
obligations, then the mileage reimbursement will still apply.
Other Transportation: If a Lansing employee has airfare out of Detroit, it is
recommended that the use of the other transpottation be utilized. A busing system or
other local transportation will take an individual directly to the Detroit Airport from
Lansing. This service minimizes the cost of mileage and the cost of parking at the
airport.
Taxi and Other Local Transportation: The cost of taxis to and from places of
business, hotels, airports or railroad stations in connection with business activities is
reimbursable. Use of taxis is authorized only when more economical services (hotel

�vans, shuttles, etc.) are not available. Employees are encouraged to utilize public
transportation whenever feasible. Receipts are required for all transportation expenses.

Meals and Entertainment
Personal Meal expenses are those incutTed by employees when dining on an out-of town
business trip. Personal meal expenses will be reimbursed upon approval from the
appropriate supervisor. The recommended amounts for breakfast are $10.00, lunch
$15.00, and dinner $25.00, these recommendations include any necessary gratuity. These
are only recommendations, and should be used as such. If traveling in an area where the
cost of meals is higher, the supervisor should consider this when approving all expenses.
The same would be tme, if the employee was attending a conference or event where
meals are provided, then the employee should adjust the recommended amounts as
needed and have approval by the appropriate supervisor. All meals must be supp01ted by
an original itemized receipt to get reimbursement. Alcoholic beverages will not be
reimbursed by the organization.
Business Meal expenses are those meals taken with clients, prospects or associates
during which a business discussion takes place. Business meals will not be restricted
under the same recommendations as personal meals. However, business meal expenses
must be suppotted by an original itemized receipt.

Spouse/Personal Travel Combined with Business
Travel expenses for a spouse or other family members who are not employees are not
reimbursable as a business expense. However, a spouse or other family members may
share accommodations as long as there is no additional cost to the organization.

Telecommunications
Air/Rail Telephones: Except in an emergency, or when a critical business issue is
involved, employees will not be reimbursed for use of air phones, rail phones or
telephones in car services, due to their high cost.
Hotel Surcharges: When possible, avoid making calls from hotels that add surcharges.
It is recommended that a cell phone be utilized at hotels and other travel destinations. If
the calls are for business, the employee can turn the expense into the company on the
appropriate expense fonn.
Internet Surcharges: Internet surcharges may be reimbursed. However, employees
should seek accommodations that provide free access to the internet or use free access
conference facilities to access email.

�Other Reimbursable Expenses
The following incidental expenses, when directly related to business travel, are
reimbursable:
Tips: 20% at restaurants, $1 per bag, $2 per night for hotel maid service
Parking
Tolls

Non-Reimbursable Expenses
The following expenses are NOT reimbursable:
Expenses with out proper documentation
Baby-sitter fees
Charitable Contributions
Personal Gifts
Personal articles (i.e. toiletries, magazines, etc.)
Normal commuting expenses
Airline Club dues

�Consulting and Custom Training
Recent work includes: a series of workshops for The Power of We in the Lansing area; a
workshop on regulatory issues for the Eaton County United Way; a workshop on
collaboration for the United Way for Southeastern Michigan; a workshop on governance
for small thumb-area hospitals for the Michigan Center for Rural Health; strategic
planning facilitation for the Food Bank Council of Michigan; completion of a series on
volunteer management for the Community Foundation of St. Clair County that resulted in
the formation of an ongoing networking group; workshops on governance, fund

Emerging Leaders and Executive Leadership Fellows
We are nearing the half-way point of the current class of each of these programs and
evaluations have been overwhelmingly positive. Staff is cun·ently evaluating potential
changes to curriculum and delivery for future series.
Financial Management Solutions for Nonprofit Success
The Solutions partnership with Detroit Executive Service Corps is in the midst of its pilot
phase, which will conclude in February with the "Bookkeepers Institute." The pilot,
which has included public trainings, board trainings and organizational consulting, will
then move into an evaluation stage to make adjustments prior to development of the full
program. Conversations also continue with the Johnson Center for Philantin·opy to
identify replication opportunities.
Strategic Mergers and Restructuring Training (SMART)
We are developing trainings for this collaboration with Detroit Executive Service Corps,
Community Legal Resources, United Way for Southeast Michigan and Nonprofit Finance
Fund. Our trainings include opportunities for nonprofits, as well as trainings for
consultants. The larger project will also include resources to educate Southeast
Michigan's nonprofit communities about strategic alliance opportunities, as well as direct
support for organizations considering strategic alliances. Service delivery is scheduled to
begin in early 2008.

Member Services Report
December 11, 2007

IMembership Update
Membership numbers increased slightly this past quarter; however retention of members
is of concern. A two-year plan for membership recruitment and retention is being
finalized that will include over f01iy strategies focused on improving communications
and building lasting relationships with organizations. MNA Marketing, Communication
and Evaluation Teams will assist Member Services with various components of the plan.
The staff would like to encourage the MNA Board of Trustees to distribute membership
brochures whenever there is an oppotiunity to do so. Brochures are available at board
meetings or by contacting Jan Harper at jhatper@mnaonline.org or 517/492-2416.

IThe 2008 Nonprofit Compensation &amp; Benefit Sun•ey
MNA is partnering with the Community Research Institute at the Johnson Center, Grand
Valley State University on the 2008 edition of The Michigan Nonprofit Compensation &amp;
Benefit Survey. The survey is an impotiant tool for nonprofits as it provides
comprehensive wage and benefits information for more than 60 nonprofit employment
positions. The data will be disaggregated by budget size, type of organization, geographic
location and other factors.
The Community Research Institute distributed links to the online survey in November
and has asked organizations to respond by December 15, 2007. Organizations that
complete the survey will receive a free electronic copy of the final document which is
scheduled for release in May 2008. Please contact Pat Nanzer at nanzetp@gvsu.edu if
you wish to participate in the survey and did not receive the link.
Sponsors for the 2008 survey include the Nonprofit Alliance, NorthSky Nonprofit
Network, Michigan League for Human Services, Great Lakes Center for Youth
Development and ArtServe Michigan.
Bookstore
Planning for the 2008 SuperConference bookstore is underway. The bookstore will be in
a new location at the Lansing Center and will offer exciting array of new books and
merchandise. Bookstores are also being planned for Michigan Affordable Housing

�Conference in June and ArtServe Michigan's Arts Advocacy Day in March.
Several re-seller agreements between MNA and national publishing companies were
recently negotiated. The new agreements provide the potential for increased revenue and
a broader selection of nonprofit publications that will be marketed through the MNA
bookstore. Visit www.mnaonline.org/bookstore.asp for books in nonprofit management,
advocacy, fundraising, human resources, volunteerism, risk management and more.
Iclassified Advetiising
Classified advertising continues to exceed budget expectations. MNA job postings are
placed on the MNA website, Crain's Detroit Nonprofit News website and are blast faxed
to 1,000 nonprofit offices. Additional information about classified ads can be found
online at www.mnaonline.org/classified.asp.

IMNALinks
Two new features were recently added to the MNA member newsletter including
Member Spotlight and BookCents.
The Member Spotlight features the work of a member organization and how the nonprofit
makes a difference in their local community or throughout Michigan. Spotlight articles
will become as part of an online story bank that will be added to the MNA website in
2008. Organizations that would like to be featured in an upcoming issue should contact
Jan Harper at 517/492-2416.
BookCents is a newsletter column that provides reviews of low-cost highly informative
publications that are available through the MNA bookstore. The reviews which are
written by MNA staff members contain highlights and details that are generally omitted
from book jacket summaries.
Questions about MNA membership, services or benefit programs should be directed to
Jan Harper at jharper@mnaonline.org or 517/492-2416.

Michigan I Campus Compact
December 2007
www.micampuscompact.org
Michigan Campus Compact (MCC) is a consortium of 41 college and university presidents in Michigan
that promotes the education and commitment of Michigan college students to be civically engaged
citizens, through creating and expanding academic, co-curricular and campus-wide opportunities for
community service, service-learning and civic engagement.

2007-2008 Priorities
MCC's theme this year with campuses will be in the intersection between involving students with
community service, access and retention within college. As always, MCC will be doing all our great
programs, grants and events this year in addition to these priorities:

2007 Michigan Campus Compact Listening Tour
The 2007 Michigan Campus Compact Listening Tour has reached 83% (34) of our campuses and all
member campuses were invited and encouraged to participate. The following is a list of member

�The tour has inspired campuses involved with the movement for civic learning within higher education,
helped to provide feedback and direction for Michigan Campus Compact, and allow for creative thought
and leadership to emerge within the movement. The next steps will be to use the information given to us
through the tour to inform the strategic planning process this spring, help the board to look at how MCC
wants to celebrate our 20 1h Anniversary, and help MCC staff develop programs for the upcoming years.

2008 Strategic Planning Process
Building off the listening toqr and as MCC enters its 20th anniversary year, the MCC Board of Directors
and constituents will develop a new strategic plan for the movement within higher education this spring
with the help of Cornerstone Consulting.

Example of recent MCC Programs and Events
November 16, 2007- Fall Colloquium: Artful Partnership- Development and Sei'Vice
Kalamazoo College, Kalamazoo
Approximately fotty faculty, staff, and administrators from higher education institutions across Michigan
attended our fall colloquia focused the possible intersection between campus community engagement
work and development. Mark Langseth, Assistant Vice President for University Development at Portland
State University and former Executive Director of Minnesota Campus Compact lead the day long
workshop to raise awareness of how community service-learning accomplishments can be an effective
way for development and public relations staff to reach out to donors, alumni and the general public, hear
from other colleges and universities about their successful experiences in utilizing community servicelearning for successful fundraising campaigns and compelling public relations messages and work
together with other participants in brainstorming campus-specific ideas that infuse community servicelearning into fundraising and friend-raising activities.

Upcoming Events
February 6, 2008- Solutions Summit- Educating Environmental Stewards
Educators and environmental expetts from across the state will join together to discuss strategies for
improving Michigan's environment. Service-learning, volunteerism, place-based education and
community- based research will be featured and shared as tools to build the movement. The goals of the
day include: 1) Increase Great Lakes stewardship, 2) Encourage collaboration between groups/educators
with similar missions, and 3) Encourage the greening of service-learning, volunteerism, community-based
research and place-based education. Partners include: Michigan Campus Compact, Michigan Community
