MNA Executive Committee

From: Kyle Caldwell, President and CEO
Date: June 2, 2010
Re:

President's Report

The third quarter presented a number of challenges and opportunities for the organization.
Progress on Goals

Strategic Planning
With the near completion of the existing strategic plan created nearly three years ago, the staff
has been working deeply to explore the goals and strategies for the future of the organization.
Since January, senior staff in the organization has been engaged in developing new strategies
based on a model fi·om David LaPiana and Associates called, "Real Time Strategic Planning."
Rather than developing a series of goals with specific time!ines, this model looks at developing
strategies that the staff will address with specific goals and objectives, while remaining flexible
to address our changing realities. Part of this work was shared with the Board at their Annual
Retreat in March. Our goal is to present a preliminary framework for our strategic planning at
the June Board meeting. In the meantime, I presented a new organizational structure to the
Executive Committee (see attached). Please note that the chart illustrates the functional
changes, but does not represent individual staff members at this time. This new structure
provides tln·ee important and long-needed changes:

�•
•
•

Re-aligns the organizational structure to the organization's strategies (Public Policy,
Civic Engagement, Programming, Operations);
Provides targeted leadership to the Michigan Nonprofit Center to ensure that it becomes a
strong pattnership and viable business model for MNA; and
Significantly reduces the number of direct reports to the CEO and streamlines the
communication and oversight of the organization overall.

I will provide a more detailed overview of the new structure at the June Board meeting with
plans to implement the structure effective July 1, 2010.

Budget
As you will see from the Finance Committee Report, we are still operating with a projected
deficit; however the overall amount is less than originally projected. Our end of3'd quarter
deficit is $352,662.28 and while that is still too large, it is $127,000 less than projected last
quatter.
To address not only our shmt-term deficit, but also our long-term structural budget deficit, MNA
senior staff proposed a budget to the Finance Committee that calls for reductions in costs and
staffmg that preserve our impmtant services, while reducing duplication and unnecessary costs.
Included in that plan is the elimination of 5 full-time positions. These personnel reductions will
be implemented immediately to provide our staff as much notice as possible and begin the
fmancialrestructuring we will implement at the beginning of the fiscal year (July 1, 2010). A
more detailed briefmg will be provided at the Executive Committee Meeting.

Arm my
Last week MNA announced its 15-year commitment to the Michigan Nonprofit Center at the
Marshall Street Amory. With the signing of the lease with the Gillespie Group, MNA is able to
secure roughly 25,000 square feet of office space at this historical facility. As part of the
Michigan Nonprofit SuperConference, MNA along with its pattners and the Gillespie Group
previewed the new space with members of the public. Here we announced the development of a
pattnership with the Michigan Association of United Ways, Food Bank Council of Michigan,
Capital Region Community Foundation, and the Capital Area United Way. We now will focus
on the securing of the final subleases with these partners and developing our operational
agreements for how we would like to function as a collaborative. Staff will also be working to
develop a fund development plan for the necessary resources to supp01t the programming that
will be available to the area nonprofits.

Public Policy
We are pleased to announce the hiring ofKari Sederburg as the new Director of Public Policy.
Kari' s hiring completes the realignment of our senior management structure initiated nearly a

�year ago. Thanks to the support of the Board and the aid of a search firm, MNA was able to
leverage a highly qualified pool of candidates for our senior positions including Kari.
Kari's focus areas will include preparing for the upcoming elections and related citizen
initiatives, supporting the legislative agenda of the Nonprofit Caucus, providing resources and
training to nonprofits on advocacy and lobbying, supporting our policy research initiative to
more effective tell our stoty to policy makers, and staffmg the Charitable Trust Council--our
partnership with the Attorney General's Office. These are no small tasks, but Kari is up to the
task.
Challenges

The greatest challenge for the organization moving forward will be the shortage of resources.
While the staff is proposing a balanced budget, we will still face a major revenue loss with the
closure of two federal programs over the next two fiscal years. Combined, the Michigan NOW
and Michigan RECOVERY programs represent more than $2 million to the organization's
budget. There are currently no plans by the President or Congress to fund either of these
initiatives in the future. In addition, overall large foundation contributions to MNA are either
down our uncertain. This is especially true for the Southeast Michigan foundations that
supported the start up of our Metro Detroit Pattnership Office. Our goal over the next fiscal year
will be to deepen our relationship with foundations, identify new revenue sources (outside of
foundations), and increase the strength of our fund development systems overall.

Michigan Nonprotit Association
Public Policy Report
June 2010 Board Meeting
Action Items
There are no action items at this time.
The May Public Policy Committee meeting was cancelled due to the absence of any pressing agenda
items, and a brief update on any policy-related information was emailed out instead. The committee will
be setting the stage for next years' initiatives after the June board meeting and should have a vety full
agenda for the committee's next conference call.

Discussion Items

(

A. Legislative Updates: Nonprofit Caucus Priorities
Work Permits Bill Passes House Labor Committee

SB 860 (Allen), the bill to amend the Youth Employment Standards Act to clarify that minors
engaging in volunteer activities with charitable nonprofits do not need work permits, received
unanimous approval and passage fi·om the House Labor Committee in early May. SB 860 now
moves to the House Floor for a vote.
Sales Tax Exemption Bill- Waiting to be Introduced

The amended language for the General Sales Tax Act that clarifies that products purchased by
nonprofit organizations for administrative or fundraising activities would be clearly exempt ft·om
sales tax has been finalized and we have authorized approval of the latest draft from the
Legislative Service Bureau. We are waiting for Senator Allen to introduce the bill.
Waitingfor Revised Language on Charitable Organizations and Solicitation Act

MNA is working closely with the Attorney General's office on this legislation, and we are
waiting to receive a draft of the revised language from the Legislative Service Bureau. These
revisions will enable more streamlined processing of files for charities wishing to solicit
donations and more effective enforcement of standards to protect Michigan charities.
B. Other Statewide Legislation
Tax Exempt Status for Habitat for Humanity

HB 5786 (Caul) clarifies real and personal property tax exemptions for the Habitat for Humanity
Restores. This bill has passed the House and has been referred to the Senate Finance Committee.
MNA suppmis this legislation.

�Unattended Drop Box Legislation
HB 5716 (Hansen) and HB 5716 (Clemente) were recently introduced, on behalf of a request by
Goodwill Industries, to defme and regulate the activities of a person who owns or operates a
clothing donation box. Both bills unanimously passed out of the House Commerce Committee,
but no other action has been taken at this time. MNA has remained neutral on both bills -we see
this as an enforcement issue, not a legislative one.

Charitable Gaming Revisions
HB 5121 (Haugh) increases fees ($65/day and $100/day) for millionaire parties and provides for
an expedited license process. The bill has been referred to the Senate Committee on Economic
Development and Regnlatory Reform (Sen. Sanborn). MNA opposes this legislation. There is no
gnarantee the increased revenue raised will go to expedite the process. Kyle Caldwell and Kari
Sederburg met with Senator Sanborn's office to discuss MNA's position. Sen. Sanborn does not
foresee this legislation moving until late summer at the earliest.

C. National Issues oflnterest
Congress to propose Bill for Nonprofit Voice
Congressman Betty McCollum (D-MN) intends to introduce a bill next month that would create
two new bodies to help put nonprofit issues on the federal table. The National Nonprofit Council
would offer formal recommendations to Congress. The legislation would also establish a
working group that would discuss ways to improve relations with nonprofit groups and evaluate
recommendations fi·om the new nonprofit council. MNA is anxious to see this move forward.

Health Care Reform
MNA has updated a page on our website to include information on how health care reform and its
different components may impact the nonprofit community. We provide information on key
implementation dates on the various reform components, "Pay or Play" requirements for
employers related to their role in providing health care benefits to employees, details on the small
employer tax credit and the allowances for nonprofits, and more.

Senate Plans Reinstatement ofEstate Tax
The Senate is working on the details of a biprutisan package designed to reinstate the estate tax,
which expired on December 31, 2009. A previous plan would have raised the individual estate tax
exemption to $5 million and lower the top rate to 3 5%. Under new statutory pay-as-you-go
budget rules, a similar proposal would require offsets. This legislation is still in negotiations in
the Senate.

IRS Tax Exempt Status Revocations
May 17, 2010 was the cutoff for nonprofits to submit their 990s to keep their tax exempt status.
This is the first year a nonprofit's tax exempt status will automatically be revoked if the
organization has not submitted a 990 in the past three years. Currently, there are still more than
7,000 nonprofits in Michigan that have not filed- a number that is down fi·om more than 12,000
prior to May 17.
MNA has contacted all of our members who were on the revocation list, as well as nonmembers
who we know are still operating. None of the organizations we contacted were aware of the
change in reporting requirements. MNA has also worked in patinership with the National
Council ofNonprofits to spread the word about these changes, and will continue to work to
educate nonprofit organizations about these requirements.

�D. Constitutional Convention
There was a very robust conversation regarding the Constitutional Convention during the last
Public Policy Committee meeting. MNA has decided not to take a position on this issue. Instead,
we are providing an educational overview on constitutional conventions.
E. Michigan Census Work Still in Full Force
As of the end of April, Michigan has seen a 77 percent return rate of the 20 I 0 Census forms.
Michigan is now one of the Top 5 states in the country for level of participation, and the City of
Livonia has the highest participation rate in the country (87 percent) for places with a population
of more than 50,000. Our census work through the Nonprofits Count! campaign continues.
F. Giving and Volunteering Day
On Apri122, 2010, more than !50 nonprofit representatives and 50 legislators and legislative staff
members gathered in the State Capitol Rotunda in Lansing to celebrate volunteerism. Nonprofits
spent the afternoon meeting with dozens of legislative offices, emphasizing the return on
investment brought on by the state's small line items suppmting national service and advocating
strong suppot1 of national service funding.
G. Nonprofit Day
Planning for MNA's Nonprofit Day has begun. A small working group consisting of members
fi·om the Public Policy Committee is meeting to discuss the agenda, topics and speakers for the
event. The event is scheduled for Tuesday, September 21, 2010 at the Radisson Hotel, Lansing.
Save the date cards are currently being distributed.

H. New Research Results
MNA, in partnership with Public Sector Consultants, recently released research findings on the
impact Michigan's recession has had on the sector- patticularly in relation to employment. The
research found the sector has actually increased employment nearly 2.7% (or 11,500 jobs) over a
three year period (2006-2009). A number of fuctors may have contributed to this including an
increased need for the services nonprofits provide and the fact that mission-focused organizations
tend to take a different perspective on resources, meaning the sector may be less likely to reduce
staff to increase overhead, unlike a for-profit might. See the rep011 findings attached.

�Michigan's
Nonprofit
Sector
Through
the
Recession
May 2010

ver the past three years, the "Great Recession" has severely
affected nearly every one of Michigan's major industries, driving the state's unemployment up and overall wages down. As a result,
nonprofits statewide have reported increased demand for their services
while at the same time they have been forced to seek new and innovative
financial lifeblood. Nonetheless, as a whole, the nonprofit sector provides
an economic glimmer of hope for the state as this sector's employment
and wages, two key economic indicators, have remained resilient through
the recession.'

In 2008, the Michigan Nonprofit Association took an in-depth look at the
nonprofit sector through the Economic Benefits ofMichigan's Nonprofit
Sector report. This document is a follow-up to determine how the nonprofit
organizations last studied in 2008 have fared from third quarter 2006 to
third quarter 2009. In short, those nonprofit organizations (including the
sub-sectors of public charities, private foundations, and noncharitable
nonprofit organizations) added nearly 11,500 jobs, or 2.69 percent, between
the third quarter of2006 and the third quarter of2009. Total employment
in the sector stood at nearly 440,000 in September 2009. 2 Wages increased
by 14.7 percent over the same three-year period (see Exhibit 1). Information on nonprofit assets, the third economic indicator studied in previous
reports, is not available at this time, but we surmise that assets experienced
the same market-driven dip as seen in other sectors.

The relatively good performance of the nonprofit sector can likely be
explained by the cotmtet~cyclical nature of demand for social services
during economic downturns. Further, the sector's wage growth might

' Recessions are defined by the National Bureau of Economic Research. For the
purpose of this publication, we have focused on the period beginning with the
third quarter of2006, one year before the official start of the current recession,
through the third quarter of 2009, when many economic indicators had shown
signs of recovery.

First quarter 20!0 data was not yet available before the publication of this report.

�reflect the continued professionalization of nonprofit
sector employees and increased productivity, in terms
of served clients. Acknowledging that total employment grew only slightly, we hypothesize that employers
expanded the role of current employees, asking them
to do more without necessarily adding more staff.
Nonprofits are likely putting forth extra efforts to
retain good talent.

Through the recession, the distribution of employment
across the nonprofit sub-sectors has not changed.
Nonprofit charities account for the large majority of
employees, while foundations continue to represent
only a small slice of the pie. Wages are distributed
in a similar manner across the sector (see Exhibit 2).
Exhibit 3 further shows the breakdown of the entire
sector according to service area.

VCMYearinReview

Below you will fmd some key highlights of our work this past year.
SITE VISITS

During this year VCM staff has ll1lde1taken site visits to Voltmteer Muskegon, Char-Em United Way,
Jackson Nonprofit Network, Upper Peninsula Volunteer Network, Volunteer Lenawee, Thumb Volunteer
Alliance and the United Way ofEastern Upper Peninsula Volunteer Center.
In addition, VCM staff has attended all of the stops of the Michigan Community Service Commission's
"Voices for Volunteerism- A 10 City Listening Tour." Cities on the listening tom included: Sault Ste.

Marie, Houghton, Grand Rapids, Muskegon, Lansing, Detroit, Benton Harbor, Saginaw, Flint and
Cadillac. The Listening Tour had as its main goal to seek input on how to expand service and volunteerism
in our state. It was a chance for community leaders to share thoughts, concerns and best practices that
could help our state address the many challenges our communities are facing. Data collected from the tom
will be used to develop a State Service Plan aimed at utilizing service as a strategy to guide Michigan on
its road to recove1y.
SUB-GRANTS
Comcast Community Collabomtive Gmnt:
The third and final year of funding fi·om the Comcast Foundation is underway. Comcast Community
Collaborative Grants exist to encourage and nmture local collaboration between Michigan Campus
Compact (MCC) member institutions, the Volunteer Centers of Michigan (VCM), and local mentoring or
foster care initiatives to fmther the development of Michigan's voltmteer infi·astrncture. The five VCM and
MCC grantees are: Michigan State University/Capital Area United Way Volunteer Center, Grand Rapids
Community College/Kent County Mentming Collaborative, Volunteer Center of Southwest
Michigan/Southwest Michigan Mentoring Collaborative, Macomb Community College/Pinewood
Elementruy and Nmthem Michigan University/Teaching Family Homes of Upper Michigan. A grantee
conference call was held on May 4th to discuss collaborative progress, strengths ru1d weaknesses. A brief
summmy of these collaborative projects is below:

+

+

Michigan State University is addressing the need for institutions of higher education and

child welfare agencies to develop new approaches to address the educational needs of
youth transitioning from foster care. During the third year of funding, the MSU School of
Social Work is maintaining and expanding the network of connnunity support services
both on and off campus that are providing resources to MSU students who have aged out
offoster care. The Capital Area United Way Volunteer Center is working with MSU to
offer mentoring trainings, and to build a system within the university to track student
progress.
Grand Rapids Community College and the Kent County Mentoring Collaborative has
developed the infrastructure and foundation to increase college student civic
engagement in addressing community needs around youth mentoring. They have

�+

+

+

designed a Membership Agreement, Organizational Guidelines, and website to help
create mentorlmentee matches in Kent County. During the third year of funding, this
collaborative will increase recruitment methods and expand the mentoring program
beyond GRCC.
The Volunteer Center ofSouthwest Michigan used the initial Comcast funding to
create the necessary foundational work to supp01t a tri-county mentoring collaborative
effort in Berrien, Cass, and Van Buren Counties. The foundational work of surveying
agencies, creating joint marketing materials and hosting in-person meetings have created
an increased level of cooperation and appreciation of the benefits of the Collaborative.
During year three of the Com cast Grant, the Southwest Michigan Mentoring
Collaborative will focus on utilizing skilled volunteers and mentor recruitment.
Macomb Community College and Michigan State University-Extension collaborated
with Pinewood Elementaty to provide one-on-one and small group mentoring to at-risk
youth. Macomb College is working to ameliorate the many difficulties faced by at-risk
youth in the community by providing a mentoring program that incorporates tutoring,
purposeful activities, and leadership development sessions. Due to various pattnership
changes, the collaborative has recently shifted from a community-based mentoring
program to a lunch-buddies mentoring program. ht this revised stmcture, each mentor
will meet his/her mentee once a week. The final meeting of each month will revolve
around a group atts and craft activity.
Northem Michigan University and Teuchi11g Family Homes of Upper Michigmz have
developed a mentoring program aimed at helping foster care youth: develop a more
positive self image, increase patticipation in academics and appreciation of new
activities, build a higher regard for having a healthy lifestyle and expand the view of
their future. This collaborative project operates on a revised timeline to coincide with
NMU's academic year. Therefore, NMU's final year two rep01t will be submitted this
month and pending approval, year three funding will begin in mid-July.

Volunteer Impact, Retention and Expansion Grant (VIRE) from the Points of Light
lnstitute!HandsOn Network (POLIIHON):
Last year VCMIMNA was awarded a $50,000.00 VIRE Grant from the POLIIHON to support the
work of our five pre-existing Start-up sites and to explore the possibility of two new communities
coming on board. The Statt-up sites at the start of the grant included the following communities and
local sponsors:

+
+
+

+
+

Lenawee County: The Center in Tecumseh is housed within the Lenawee Community
Foundation.
Tuscola County: The Thumb Volunteer Alliance is housed and supp01ted by the
Human Development Commission in Caro. The agency also suppmts the local RSVP
program.
Marquette County: The U.P. Volunteer Network is being suppmted by the Great Lakes
Center for Youth Development and focused its work on the development of a vhtual
center for the entire U.P. This is being supported with the help of the 211 network and
our two existing centers in Chippewa County and Dickinson, h·on areas of the U.P.
Livingston County: Volunteer Livingston is housed in the Livingston County United
Way.
St. Clair County: Our newest addition to the network is the United Way of St. Clair
County in Port Huron.

�+
+

Mid-year we added two additional sites to our network which included:
Charlevoix-Emmet Counties: the Char-Em United Way will host the community's
new Volunteer Center.
Jackson County: The Jackson Nonprofit Network and the Jackson United Way have
partnered to give rise once again to a Volunteer Center that will be house in the United
Way.

During the grant year we hosted training and technical assistance calls with all of our stmt-up sites
on both financial and programmatic requirements of the VIRE grant from the HON.
VISTA IMPACT

During the 2009-2010 Fiscal Year, the VCM*VISTA members have been making huge strides in
promoting volunteerism; creating and strengthening stmctures or systems to recmit, train and retain
volunteers and in introducing youth and baby boomers to a lifestyle of setvice and civic engagement.
Along with laying the ground work for the long-tetm sustainability of their program locally, the
VISTA members have already been capturing results from their eff01ts including:

+

$331,807.00 w01th of volunteer hours leveraged by VCM* VISTAs (as a result of
VCM AmeriCorps*VISTA efforts 15,914 hours of volunteering was setved in the

VISTAs host site communities. The hourly rate developed by Independent Sector for

+
+
+

2,092 volunteers recruited fi·om the community by the VCM*VISTAs

281new colllll1unity pattnerships were established by the VCM*VISTAs

�Stories of service:
The VISTA members work with their volunteer centers and prutner nonprofits to recruit and manage
volunteers for a variety of events and National Days ofSe1vice. A few examples are highlighted he low:

+

+

The Char-Em VISTA, Petoskey, helped to recruit and provide on-site orientation for
more than 120 volunteers serving at the community's Project Connect--a day where
human service agencies supply those in need with items such as vaccinations, haircuts,
clothes, food, pet supplies, and personal care items. The VISTA served to generate
more than $6,000 w01th of in-kind donations and $1,000 in cash donations for the
event. Project Connect provided free services to more than 600 individuals.
The VISTA serving at the United Way Volunteer Center of the Eastern U.P., Sault Ste.
Marie, recruited 41 volunteers ages 5 to 63 for the "Souper Senior" event in celebration
of Ma1tin Luther King, Jr. Day. Volunteers worked to package and deliver soup and
cards to 80 senior citizens. 19 of the volunteers qualified to receive their fi·ee Disney

To the Board of Directors
Michigan Nonprofit Association
Lansing, Michigan
We have audited the financial statements of Michigan Nonprofit Association for the year ended June 30, 2010, and
have Issued our report thereon dated November 9, 2010. Professional standards require that we provide you with
information about our responsibilities under generally accepted auditing standards, Government Auditing
Standards, and OMS Circular A-133, as well as certain information related to the planned scope and timing of
our audit. We have communicated such information in our letter to you dated July 1, 2010. Professional
standards also require that we communicate to you the following Information related to our audit.
Significant Audit Findings

Qualitative Aspects' of Accounting Practices
Management Is responsible for the selection and use of appropriate accounting policies. The significant accounting
policies used by the Association are described In Note A to the financial statements. During 2010, the Association
Implemented provisions related to Accounting for Uncertainty In Income Taxes, which Is a change In accounting for
Income taxes. We noted no transactions entered Into by the Association during the year for which there Is a lack of
authoritative guidance or consensus. All significant transactions have been recognized In the financial statements in
the proper period.
Accounting estimates are an integral part of the financial statements prepared by management and are based on
management's knowledge and experience about past and current events and assumptions about future events.
Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because of their significance to the financial statements and
because of the possibility that future events affecting them may differ significantly from those expected. The most
sensitive estimates affecting the financial statements were:
•

Management's estimate of depreciation expense for the current period Is based on an estimate of the useful
lives of the fixed assets.

•

Management's estimate of the allocation of functional expenses to program and supporting services Is based
on actual expenses as well as management's estimation of time spent by employees on the respective
services.

•

Management's estimate of disallowed income tax benefit is based on management's past experience and
costs of actual related Interest and penalties to date.

We evaluated the key factors and assumptions used to develop these accounting estimates In determining that they
are reasonable in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.

Difficulties Encountered In Performing the Audit
We encountered no significant difficulties In dealing with management In performing and completing our audit.

Corrected and Uncorrected Misstatements
Professional standards require us to accumulate all known and likely misstatements identified during the audit,
other than those that are trivial, and communicate them to the appropriate level of management. Management
has corrected all such misstatements. The following material misstatements detected as a result of audit
procedures were corrected by management: beginning net assets and fixed assets.

�Disagreements with Management
For purposes of this letter, professional standards define a disagreement with management as a financial
accounting, reporting, or auditing matter, whether or not resolved to our satisfaction, that could be significant to
the financial statements or the auditor's report. We are pleased to report that no such disagreements arose
during the course of our audit.

Management Representations
We have requested certain representations from management that are Included In the management
representation letter dated November 9, 2010.

Management Consultations with Other Independent Accountants
In some oases, management may decide to consult with other accountants about auditing and accounting
matters, similar to obtaining a "second opinion" on certain situations. If a consultation Involves application of an
accounting principle to the Association's financial statements or a determination of the type of auditor's opinion
that may be expressed on those statements, our professional standards require the consulting accountant to
check with us to determine that the consultant has all the relevant facts. To our knowledge, there were no such
consultations with other accountants.

Other Audit Findings or Issues
We generally discuss a variety of matters, Including the application of accounting principles and auditing
standards, with management each year prior to retention as the Association's auditors. However, these
discussions occurred In the normal course of our professional relationship and our responses were not a
condition to our retention.
This Information Is Intended solely for the use of management and the Board of Directors of Michigan Nonprofit
Association and Is not intended to be and should not be used for any other purpose by anyone other than these
specified parties.

To the Board of Directors
Michigan Nonprofit Association
Lansing, Michigan
We have audited the accompanying statement of financial position of Michigan Nonprofit Association as of June 30,
2010, and the related statements of activities and cash flows for the year then ended, These financial statements
are the responsibility of the Association's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audit. The prior year summarized comparative information has been derived
from the Association's 2009 financial statements and In our report dated December 8, 2009, we expressed an
unqualified opinion on those financial statements.
We conducted our audit In accordance with auditing standards generally accepted In the United States of America
and the standards applicable to financial audits contained In Government Auditing Standards, Issued by the
Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit Includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures In the financial statements. An audit
also Includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for
our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position
of Michigan Nonprofit Association as of June 30, 2010, and the changes In Its net assets and Its cash flows for the
year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted In the United States of America.
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also Issued our report dated November 9, 2010, on
our consideration of Michigan Nonprofit Association's Internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of Its
compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, grant agreements, and other matters. The
purpose of that report Is to describe the scope of our testing of Internal control over financial reporting and
compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the Internal control over financial
reporting or on compliance. That report Is an Integral part of an audit performed In accordance with Government
Auditing Standards and should be considered In assessing the results of our audit.
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements of Michigan
Nonprofit Association taken as a whole. The accompanying supplementary Information, as Identified In the table of
contents, Is presented for purposes of additional analysis and Is not a required part of the basic financial statements.
Such Information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied In the audit of the basic financial
statements and, In our opinion, Is fairly stated In all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements
taken as a whole.

REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON
COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS

To the Board of Directors
Michigan Nonprofit Association
Lansing, Michigan

We have audited the financial statements of Michigan Nonprofit Association as of and for the year ended June

30, 2010, and ha'.(e Issued our report thereon dated November 9, 2010. We conducted our audit In accordance
with auditing standards generally accepted In the United States of America and the standards applicable to
financial audits contained In Government Auditing Standards, Issued by t11e Comptroller General of the United
States.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit, we considered Michigan Nonprofit Association's Internal control over financial
reporting as a basis for designing our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial
statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of Michigan Nonprofit
Association's Internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the
effectiveness of Michigan Nonprofit Association's Internal control over financial reporting.
Our consideration of Internal control over financial reporting was for the limited purpose described in the
preceding paragraph and was not designed to Identify all deficiencies In Internal control over financial reporting
that might be significant deficiencies or material weaknesses and therefore, there can be no assurance that all
deficiencies, significant deficiencies, or material weaknesses have been Identified. In addition, because of
inherent limitations In Internal control, Including the possibility of management override of controls,
misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected by such controls. However, as described In
the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs, we identified a certain deficiency In Internal control
over financial reporting that we consider to be a material weakness.
A deficiency In Internal control 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 and correct
misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, In Internal
control such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity's financial statements
will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis. We consider the deficiency described In the
accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs as 2010-1 to be a material weakness.
Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether Michigan Nonprofit Association's financial statements
are free of material misstatement, we performed tests of Its compliance with certain provisions of laws,
regulations, contracts and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect
on the determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those
provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of
our tests disclosed no Instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under

Government Auditing Standards.

REPORT ON COMPLIANCE WITH REQUIREMENTS THAT COULD HAVE A DIRECT AND
MATERIAL EFFECT ON EACH MAJOR PROGRAM AND ON INTERNAL CONTROL
OVER COMPLIANCE IN ACCORDANCE WITH OMB CIRCULAR A-133

To the Board of Directors
Michigan Nonprofit Association
Lansing, Michigan
Compliance
We have audited Michigan Nonprofit Association's compliance with the types of compliance requirements
described In the OMB Circular A-133 Compliance Supplement that could have a direct and material effect on each
of Its major federal programs for the year ended June 30, 2010. Michigan Nonprofit Association's major federal
programs are Identified in the summary of auditor's results section of the accompanying schedule of findings and
questioned costs. Compliance with the requirements of laws, regulations, contracts, and grants applicable to each
of Its major federal programs Is the responsibility of Michigan Nonprofit Association's management. Our
responsibility Is to express an opinion on Michigan Nonprofit Association's compliance based on our audit.
We conducted our audit of compliance In accordance with audJtlng standards generally accepted In the United
States of America; the standards applicable to financial audits contained In Government Audil/ng Standards, Issued
by the Comptroller General of the United States; and OMB Circular A-133. Those standards and OMB Circular A133 require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether noncompliance with
the types of compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on a major
federal program occurred, An audit Includes examining, on a test basis, evidence about Mtchlgan Nonprofit
Association's compliance with those requirements and performing such other procedures, as we considered
necessary In the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Our audit
does not provide a legal determination of Michigan Nonprofit Association's compliance with those requirements.
In our opinion, Michigan Nonprofit Assoclalion complied, in all material respects, with the compliance requirements
referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on each of Its major federal programs for the year
ended June 30, 2010.
Internal Control Over Compliance
Management of Michigan Nonprofit Association Is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective Internal
control over compliance with the requirements of laws, regulations, contracts, and grants applicable to federal
programs. In planning and performing our audit, we considered Michigan Nonprofit Association's Internal control
over compliance with the requirements that could have a direct and material effect on a major federal program to
determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our oplnion~on compliance and to test and report
on internal control over compliance In accordance with OMB Circular A-133, but not for the purpose of expressing
an opinion on the effectiveness of Internal control over compliance. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on
the effectiveness of Michigan Nonprofit Association's Internal control over compliance.

Condition: Material journal entries were proposed by the auditors to adjust beginning net assets and fixed

Criteria: Management Is responsible for establishing, maintaining, and monitoring Internal controls, and for the
fair presentation In the financial statements, Including the notes to financial statements, in conformity with U.S.

Effect: The financial statements of the Association were materially misstated prior to recording the material journal
entries proposed during the audit process.
Recommendation: We recommend that the Association take steps to ensure that material journal entries are not
necessary at the time future audit analysis is performed.

Re:

Evaluation Process of the Chief Executive Officer

Evaluation of the performance of the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) is one of the most important functions of
the MNA Board of Directors. Traditionally, MNA has engaged in an annual review process that includes
review by the Executive Committee and a biennial process that includes seeking input of the full board.
The Executive Committee reexamined the evaluation process at its November 30, 2010 meeting. As a result of
a deep and thorough conversation among committee members with the CEO, the Committee developed a new
process. The recommended process seeks to provide more detailed and intimate feedback to the CEO, more
effectively engage the full board, and streamline the evaluation process to be effective. The new process is
detailed below for full board consideration.
Evaluation Process of the CEO
The Executive Committee of the Michigan Nonprofit Association will annually conduct the performance review
of the CEO. The committee will conduct the review in two stages. First, the committee will use a traditional
evaluation tool to assess the general fulfillment of CEO duties. Second, the Executive Committee will seek
input from the full board each year through a series of structured questions that focus on four areas:

I.
2.
3.
4.

Is the CEO an effective leader for the organization's mission, vision and values?
What are the CEO's strengths?
What are the areas board members might suggest for improvement?
What general comments would you offer?

All feedback will be shared with the CEO through the Executive Committee and used to determine areas for
growth and overall compensation. The Executive Committee will present its findings to the full board annually.
Increasing the capacity of Michigan's nonprofits to serve, strengthen and transform communities.

Re:

Human Resources Outsourcing

Since its inception in 1990, the Michigan Nonprofit Association (MNA) has maintained its own staff to
conduct the compliance and management of human resources. As the organization has grown, the
human resources role in the organization has become the responsibility of various members of the
existing staff with varying levels of available time and expertise. And while we have experienced no
significant employment law liabilities and have been able to attract great talent to the organization,
MNA still lacks a robust and up-to-date human resources system commensurate with its size and its
leadership role as a model nonprofit organization.
The staff would like to consider a new way of structuring our human resources support. Staff has
researched the option of outsourcing our human resources function with an outside firm. After a
thorough search, staff has selected Paychex as our preferred vendor.
Through this vendor relationship, MNA will be able to achieve six outcomes:
1.

Continue to provide cost-efficient payroll services for our staff and national service members:

2.

Audit current policies, procedures and documentation to ensure compliance;

3.

Develop a comprehensive employee orientation system;

4.

Institute a consistent and compliant interviewing, selection, hiring, and evaluation process;

5.

Provide the training and support processes for staff; and

6.

Create potential future opportunities for shared services.

The total costs for the service in the first year will be approximately $24,200. This includes all the
services mentioned above for our 32 FTEs, the conversion (start up) costs, and all stipend (payroll)
processing for the 69 AmeriCorps members MNA hosts through our various national service programs.

�Therefore, the annual costs will fluctuate, but will be lower as subsequent years will not include the start
up costs. This cost is significantly less than it would cost to hire a staff member fully devoted to this
function. There will still need to be a staff member within MNA to maintain records and serve as liaison
to the vendor, but these responsibilities will eventually be less of a time burden than the current
method and will allow for the incorporation of the most up to date information and practices.
It is our belief that should this vendor relationship function well, it could position the organization to
consider other opportunities for growth especially as we consider our new Nonprofit Center
Partnership. The vendor contract may be terminated with 30 days notice and will be reviewed regularly.
Under current policy, the CEO is authorized to enact this contract without approval of the board and
staff is currently working to enact a contract to begin 12/30/10; however the vendor does require
confirmation of that authority. Therefore, a draft resolution is attached for the Board to consider.

                    <text>The LEAGUE Michigan 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.
Currently
We are in a 177 schools, totaling 861 classrooms and 108 districts and roughly 16,000 students in
the state of Michigan, including five school districts, consisting of Carson City-Crystal, Jackson,
Pinckney, Romulus and Shelby. The schools consist of a mix of public, private and charter
schools.
Update
Detroit Pistons/Allstate Insurance Mitten Drive
This is the second year we have partnered with the Detroit Pistons and Allstate to engage schools
in collecting winter gear for kids in the foster care system. We are thrilled this year to be able to
take this program statewide and currently have engaged almost 200 classrooms in 37 schools.
Participating classrooms have the opportunity to win up to $2,500 to support service and servicelearning in their school and the chance to be recognized on com1, dming a Pistons game.
Detroit Red Wings/Fifth Third Bank S.H.O.T.S. Program
We have partnered with the Detroit Red Wings and Fifth Third Bank for the second year in a row
to bring the S.H.O.T.S. Program (Students Helping Others Through Service), an initiative
designed to encourage Southeast Michigan high school students (grades 9-12) to volunteer their
time and efforts to make a positive impact on their communities to schools in the following
counties: Genesee, Livingston, Macomb, Monroe, Oakland, St. Clair, Shiawassee, Washtenaw, or
Wayne County. This program runs through November- March and is a great way for us to work
with new schools in the metro Detroit area.
Moving Forward
The LEAGUE Michigan is currently focused on its upcoming board meeting in December, which
will focus on the potential partnership with generationOn a division of the Points of Light
Institute and HandsOn Network. In addition, we will be gathering our statewide committee,
comprised of 12 students and 3 teachers, in January to plan the 2011 Service &amp; Leadership Camp,
which will be held in July at Central Michigan University.

Board Meeting (November 5. 2010)
Andy Wolber resigned from MNA and has plans to strike out on his own and find other ways to serve his
interests in technology and nonprofit capacity. Members of the Highway T Board as well as many staff
will miss Andy's energy and entrepreneurship. While Andy's departure is unfortunate, it will not change
the direction to illustrate, incorporate and highlight the important role technology plays in
strengthening the nonprofits MNA serves. Mark Shaw and Adam King are continuing to serve the
managed care clients, provide technical assistance and conduct the various trainings and outreach. As
plans for new leadership for Highway T develop, we will keep board members informed.
The Highway T board met on November 5 to discuss Andy's resignation as well recommendations for the
future direction of Highway T. Moving forward, board members are recommending that steps be taken
towards moving away from a board that has governing and fiduciary responsibilities to one that
operates in an advisory capacity. In addition to the shift in leadership structure, Highway T board
members are recommending that Highway T continue to implement steps towards the execution of its
business model activities including; managed care, consulting, webinars, grant funded services as well as
the launch of a new managed care program.

SuperConference 2011
SuperConference will be held at the Lansing Center on May 10-11, 2010. During this past quarter
planning for the event began. The SuperConference planning will function a bit differently than that of
past years. The 2011 SuperConference Planning Committee will only meet twice and is an Advisory
Team. This team is made up of grant-maker and grant-seeker leaders I visionaries. We will utilize this
team for high level thinking, fund development, and marketing. This group will really help ensure we are
encompassing the newest trends and resources, thus bringing SuperConference to an even stronger
premier event for our sector. Their first meeting will follow the MNA's December board meeting.
A second team will be developed to deal with the details- 2011 SuperConference Workgroup. The
Workgroup would be made up of MNA staff. The Workgroup will meet twice monthly to work out
Conference details I implementation. Their first meeting was November 30'h.
Michigan NOW!
Our three year Compassion Capital Fund Grant (Michigan NOW!) ended on September 29, 2010. It is
important to note that our grant award for Michigan NOW I was $1.5 million over three years. Out of the
$1.5 million, roughly $960,000 has gone directly back to the community.
The final report for the Grant is due to the Program office on December 29, 2010. An evaluation analysis
is currently being conducted to understand the full impact of the initiative. The analysis will be shared at
a future board meeting.
Recover Michigan
The final year of our two year Strengthening Communities Fund began on October 1, 2010. MNA staff
conducted 9 orientations across the state (Marquette, Traverse City, Grand Rapids, Battle Creek,
Kalamazoo, Jackson, Detroit, Flint, and webinar format). The Program welcomed 130 small community
and faith based organizations. In addition the 130 organizations had the opportunity to complete the
Principles and Practices Basic Infrastructure with Program staff to compete for 25 of hours of free
technical assistance. Out of the 130 organizations approximately 110 organizations applied for technical
assistance. The applications for technical assistance are currently being reviewed and announcements
will be made in early January. The Program will award 50-60 organizations technical assistance.

�SR. MONICA LAMENTS HURRIED GOVERNANCE
Early in her career as a top executive with Michigan Catholic Conference, Sr. Monica Kostielney went to the aide of
one of the sponsors of legislation to allow for a durable power of attorney, which allows terminally ill people to
designate someone else to handle life and death decisions, and said her organization had 43 separate objections to the
legislation.
"And he said, 'Well, that's doable, let's sit down and work that out,'" she said. It was the start of a process that allowed
for pioneering legislation in :Michigan, and it is a process that largely no longer exists in govemment.
Retiring from the Catholic Conference on Friday after 38 years, Sr. Kostielney said in an interview with Gangwer
News Service that society and govemment have changed dramatically in the last decades. There is no time to hold
even a conversation, to search out meanings and nuances and consider all the various points in any issue, even the
most simple seeming issue.
No matter the issue, "you need a lot of background, which legislators don't always have/' she said. Part of that is due
to term limits, which have been in place since 1992, but she also said that she did not want to harp on term limits.
Much of the problem stems from the sense that everyone is in a terrible hurry and uninterested in
reflection.
Go back to the issue of the medical decision, the ability of the legislators and their aides to work
out the different issues, to develop the knowledge base (which often involves complicated reading)
and to consider all the potential problems, from the standpoint of the doctors, the nmses, the
families, as well as the patients.
1v1uch of that understanding comes "from the ability to converse. You don't have to so much with
legislators today. They don't have the time, they're always in a hurry," she said.
Succeeding Sr. Kostielney as head of the 1Hchigan Catholic Conference is Paul Long, the
conference's longtime vice president for public policy.
While she is retiring, Sr. Kostielney hopes to become involved in education, which is how she came
to work for Catholic Conference. A native of the west side of Detroit, a graduate of both Mercy
College and the University of Detroit (the schools have since combined), and joining the Sisters ofl\Jercy, Sr.
Kostielney was teaching in Grand Rapids when her superintendent asked her to get the other teachers together for a
presentation. At that presentation, Ed Farhat, the then executive director ofthe Catholic Conference, talked about a
ballot issue to legalize abortion in Michigan.

L..•.•.:_______,

"In a moment of clarity I'd never had before or since, I wanted to help," she said. So that summer and fall of 1972 she
worked on the issue, which had seemed in opinion polls to win in a landslide, but which then lost in a landslide.
Asked what were the biggest wins and losses of her career, Sr. Kostielney said the defeat of the abortion issue was the
biggest victory and passage of a proposal in 2008 to allow research using embryonic stem cells the biggest defeat. The
church was not opposed to the use of stem cells so long as they were not embryonic stem cells, which the church views
as destroying human life.

MNA Program Report 12-14-10

�Sr. Kostielney has been president and CEO of the conference since 1994, having been executive vice president for 11
years before that-. In that position, she headed one of the few special interests that approaches government and public
service from a religious perspective.
She said it allowed her a "beautiful blending of my foundation with my ministry." In her order she took a vow to serve
the poor, but, while working in that, she also said, "We strongly believe we are made in the image and likeness of God
and because of that we have to respect each other."
And respecting each other means "considering the whole range of what an individual is," she said.
That thinking goes into the overall complexity of issues, and how ideally individuals should look at all the different
factors involved. For example, building the Detroit River International Crossing is not just a matter of money, but of
overall transportation needs, coordination with another sovereign nation, environmental and community effects, just
to name a few implications, she said.
Being the representative of a religious organization also means she can approach government and public service
openly ft"om the concept of love. Love is the purpose for everything, she said. "\Vithout love, nothing is done," she said,
and love acts as the basis of passion which helps drive activity. "\Vithout passion, you dry up," she said.
Though she said of all the divine virtues, probably the one most difficult to exercise was forgiveness. She said she
wondered about that to her staff once, and they came back saying, "\Veil, you're not married."
And she said the parable of the prodigal son, which deals directly with forgiveness and the difficulty of accepting
forgiveness, is the basis of social justice.
As the public and legislators get pushed more to the extreme, the public and govemment is missing balance. "Balance
is what we really need. At the core of this disaster, we don't have any consensus on anything in this society," she said.
"If I were to describe society, one accurate statement would be that everyone doesn't like somebody. We are even
protesting protestors."
Society and government has a lost a sense of who is responsible for what, she said. Looking at traditional Amish
culture, the hierarchy of responsibility is that a person must watch over the family, then their neighbors, then the
church, then the community, then the government. But no\v, attitudes have devolved that a person is solely
responsible for himself or herself and then the question is at what stage government is involved.
All aspects of life are also viewed as commodities, she said. At a forum she attended once, a person said a person's
health care coverage had to be viewed in light of what the person could afford. But health care should be a right of life,
she said, which has to take into consideration factors such as what role government plays in ensuring that right and
helping pay for it and in helping deal with elements that could control health care costs such as violence and
addictions.
She also said that society has become less willing to speak directly about some issues. For example, she said people
were unwilling to speak of greed, but greed is a factor in how decisions are made.
'fhe desire for things, not just tangible things, has thrown off society's balance and order. Sr. Kost.ielney said she hears
how things are out of order, for example, when she hears young people saying they want a job in a particular city, with
all their friends, at a particular wage, with particular benefits, and that desire does not reflect overall reality or a
willingness to accept the limits of choice.
And she returned again and again to the idea of developing greater education. Education is the "one true safety net"
that can help all persons.

MNA Program Report 12-14-10

�Asked what she would advise incoming legislators to read to help them prepare for government service, she said the
Constitution and a new volume of letters by the late U.S. Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan C'Daniel Patrick Moynihan; A
Portrait In Letters Of An American Visionary'').
As she leaves, she said she would be taking home a whole pile oflittle treasures, including a LeBron James bobblehead
(which she was given, she said, because "he may be better than that player who's in the Nike Ads." Told it was 1fichael
Jordan, she said, "I have a casual interest in sports.")
And she said she will have to adjust to not coming into downtown Lansing during the workweek. She has a delivery
call scheduled for her house next week and was trying to think of whom she could have stay at her house for the call,
when she realized she would be home.

�National Service Update
The 20 I 0-11 Michigan Service Scholars program began in October. Seven regional member
trainings were hosted in September, October and November for MSS members. To date, 166
members have been enrolled, filling over half ofMCC's 300 allotted member slots. The
remaining slots will be filled in February. MSS members have one year to complete 300 hours of
service for a $1,132 education award.
The Mentor Michigan College Coaching Corps is a joint effort between Michigan Campus
Compact and Mentor Michigan. The MMCCC will place I 0 AmeriCorps members at MCC
member institutions. Eight campus-based members started serving in October and two additional
members will begin in December. The goal of this program for members placed on college
campuses is to develop "college-going" cultures within local communities. Members placed
within institutions of higher education will create a "college-going" culture by training college
students to be College Positive Volunteers, building community partnerships among K-12
schools, community-based organizations, and their host campus, creating college-focused
community activities, and overall increase community awareness of the fact that higher
education can be accessed by all. Members have been trained as College Positive Volunteerism
Trainers and equipped with resources regarding state and national movement on college access.
The 2010-2011 MCC AmeriCorps*VISTA members completed their first quarter oftheir year
of service on member campuses. The 17 VISTA members created and expanded key partnerships
on their campus and in the surrounding the community, mobilized volunteers and helped to
spread awareness around possible solutions towards ending poverty.
Each month, a different MCC*VISTA member is featured on the MCC website, October
featured Elyse Mathos, who is serving at Lawrence Technological University:
o On October 23rd, around 80 students, faculty, staff and fi·iends fi·om LTU participated in
Make a Difference Day by volunteering their time at Forgotten Harvest in Southfield, and
Gleaners Community Food Bank in Detroit. Make a Difference Day is a national day of
service and LTU's largest campus-wide service event of the fall semester. Volunteers at
Forgotten Harvest assisted in packaging food and warehouse clean-up. At Gleaners,
volunteers prepared family meal food packages, put together food bank orders and
organized the warehouse. After completing their service, volunteers pa1ticipated in
facilitated reflection designed to help them better understand the issue of hunger in their
community, how their service has made an impact on it and how they can address it in the
future. The day concluded with a celebration barbeque. Students had positive feedback
fi·om the event, expressing their unawareness of the widespread effects of hunger in
Detroit, and their happiness to have made an impact. Many are looking forward to more
service projects throughout the school year.
Additional Monthly features can be found here: http://micampuscompact.org/vistafeature.aspx
MCC brought the 17 AmeriCorps VISTA members together with MCC's 8 College Coaching
AmeriCorps members to do a one day training in Lansing. The National Service members
attended a "train the trainer" session on College Positive Volunteering. The two groups spent the
afternoon in separate sessions and the next day attended the Michigan Community Service
Commission's annual AmeriCorps Member Celebration.

�Learn and Serve America Programs Undate
Pay It Fotward Learn and Serve America Grant Program: Strengthening Communities
through Student-Led Philanthropy is collaboration between Michigan Campus Compact, Ohio
Campus Compact and Kentucky Campus Compact. In the 2010-2011 academic years, 72 courses
in these three states, including 21 courses on 8 campuses in Michigan, have received sub awards
for their students to practice philanthropy in their local communities. Site visits have indicated
that the 13 Fall Pay it Forward courses have been very impactful, and students are relishing the
oppmtunity to become philanthropists in their home communities. Work is in progress for the
host campus compact offices to plan a national philanthropy conference in August of2011.
The Midwest Campus Compact STEM Consortium (comprised oflllinois, Iowa, Kansas,
Michigan, Minnesota, and Wisconsin Campus Compacts) has been awarded $250,000 to
provide training and technical assistance to sub-grantees as they implement multi-institution
service-leaming projects to increase student engagement, participation, and persistence in STEM
disciplines while helping to address local community concerns about food, its production, and its
distribution; and about nutrition and related health issues. Funded service-learning projects will
bring together multiple post-secondary institutions to collectively address local/regional food
related issues such as, but not limited to, food security, sustainable agriculture, nutrition
education, and childhood obesity/diabetes. Sub-grantees will gain expertise in designing,
implementing, and assessing courses that use complex and compelling social issues to deliver
STEM instruction building a cohmt of experienced service-learning practitioners in each
participating state. Three Michigan campuses have applied. Funding decisions will be made in
mid-December 2010.
Access and Success
Renee Zientek, MCC Executive Director and Dr. David Eisler, MNA Chair and President of
Ferris State University, attended the 2010 National Campus Compact Presidents Summit at
Georgetown University with nearly I 00 college/university presidents and Campus Compact state
directors fi·om across the country. All were focused on making a single, compelling argument:
that college students who patticipate in civic engagement and service-learning eam higher grade
point averages and have a better chance of staying in college and earning degrees.
In an audience of presidents fi·mn public, private, two- and four-year institutions across the
spectrum of higher education, they made their case to Dr. Martha J. Kanter, Under Secretary of
Education, in response to President Obama's challenge that by the year 2020, the U.S. must have
the highest number of college graduates of any nation in the world.
Member college presidents fi·om across the country shared the conviction that civic engagement
offers a promising avenue for increasing access to and success in college, especially among firstgeneration college attendees, students of color, and those fi·mn economically disadvantaged
backgrounds.
To demonstrate this commitment here in our state, MCC has secured 2010-2011 fimding fi·om
Michigan College Access Network (MCAN) through the federal College Access Challenge
Grant. This fimding has enabled MCC to award II member campuses fimds to implement
programs where college students serving with youth act as ambassadors of higher education and
talk to youth about post-secondary options. These trained college students m·e called College

�Positive Volunteers (CPVs). As ofNovember 20,2010, 223 students have been trained as
College Positive Volunteers by MCC staff, and an additional65 faculty, staff, students and
AmeriCorps members have been trained to train others in CPV.
165 college students, who are minimum time Michigan Service Scholars AmeriCorps members,
have had an introduction to College Positive Volunteerism Curriculum training. Ofthose 165
students, 67 will complete the entire training to become certified College Positive Volunteers.
MCC has begun developing 20 I I -2012 programming around an MCAN grant award in the
amount of$215,095. This award will be sub granted to member campuses to continue work
where students serving with youth are trained as College Positive Volunteers and expose youth
to the merits of higher education.
Thanks to a $1,000 grant fi·om the Lumina Foundation and National Campus Compact, MCC has
revised the CPV toolkit to be more concise and user-fi·iendly and align with Lumina's
KnowHow2Go Campaign for college awareness and readiness.
Skilled Volunteers

2012 Institute: Service-Learning and Civic Engagement. She will research fhture trends in the
field and help identifY relevant speakers and content for the 2012 conference.

Re:

President's Report

Overview
The second quarter ofFY 2010-2011 represented a significant turning point for the organization.
Our financial picture improved even during the height of the state's economic crisis. The staff
has been working hard to develop the goals for our new strategic planning process while
maintaining the high level of quality and quantity our nonprofits expect. There were a number of
staffing changes which were explained in a previous correspondence to the Executive
Committee. We are using these changes to examine opportunities for realignment and growth
while staying keenly focused on our new strategic direction and our newly adopted planning
model-Real-Time Strategic Planning.

Progress on Goals
Fiscal Health
During the planning prior to the stmt of this fiscal year, I committed to the board that staff would
ensure that the organization's budget would be in structural balance by the end ofFY 2012. The
organization's financial position, while still in structural deficit (misalignment oflong-tenn
revenues and expenses), is much brighter and on a solid path toward balance. According to our
draft audit for FY 2009-20 I 0, MNA ended in the black ($173, 120) for the first time since FY
2006. Many factors contributed to this change including a 49% increase in revenues, while
holding to only a 39% increase in expenses. Our ratio of services (programming) to support
costs (administration) was an impressive 95% to 5% respectively, while our assets to liabilities
ratio was 7.67. Finally, we have cash on hand at levels that can cover 53% ofallllual expenses
meaning that we can cover 6 months of activity without any new revenues. This represents an
important milestone for our organization's financial future as we look toward long-term growth
and sustainability.

�There were a number of new resources secured this quarter, including:
•
•
•

$750,000 general operations grant fi·om the W.K. Kellogg Foundation (four years);
$100,000 general operations grant fi·om the Ford Foundation (two years); and
$25,000 grant fi·om the Herbert H. and Grace A. Dow Foundation in support of the
Michigan Nonprofit Council for Charitable Trusts (three years).

Thank you to all the board members who helped in securing these important investments in our
work. Our current operating budget reflects a number of changes including the aforementioned
staffing changes, new revenues, and expenses including some costs savings. The changes were
significant enough for me to request a budget modification fi·om the Finance Committee, and
ultimately the filii board. That Finance Committee recommendation will be presented to the
Executive Committee at the November 30, 2010 meeting. While the budget still projects a
deficit, we remain on track to realign our budget for structural balance by the end ofFY 2012.
Strategic Planning

At the June meeting of the Board, staff presented a new model for our strategic planning and a
new vision focused on transforming the nonprofit sector (effective, engaged, understood, and
relevant). In December, I will be presenting an update to this process, the new organizational
structure (see chart attached) and our proposed goals. These changes are all part of the three
shifts I shared with the Board iu June. They included:
•
•
•

Re-aligning the organizational structure to the organization's strategies (Public Policy,
Civic Engagement, Programming, and Operations);
Significantly reducing the number of direct reports to the CEO and streamlining the
communication and oversight of the organization overall; and
Providing targeted leadership to the Michigan Nonprofit Center to ensure that it becomes
a strong pmtnership and viable business model for MNA.

The new structure will fold programming and operations into one aligned area and will include
the new director of the Nonprofit Center and director of Highway T. Some of the current
operations fimctions will be outsourced (see Challenges) while others will be reassigned to
existing staff as part of an overall reassessment of job functions.
Our strategic planning overall continues with staff developing a set of objectives based on our
new mission, vision and goals which will guide the development of our specific activities for FY
2011-2012 and beyond. We will present these in more detail for the board to consider at the
March, 20 II Retreat.
Public Policy

�MNA is moving on elements of our newly approved Government Reform Agenda. With the
support of the W.K. Kellogg Foundation and hopefully others, we have launched our campaign
to educate the public on the implications of redistricting. This campaign builds on our great
success with the Nonprofits Count! U.S. Census efforts that helped project four Michigan cities
into the top 20 and our state into the top 5 for mail-in response rates! Our goal is to empower
nonprofits to educate policy makers and the general public on the consequences of redistricting
and its impact especially on vulnerable populations. We recently added the Center for Michigan
to our Steering Committee for this initiative and will be adding more partners as we move
forward.
AnnoiJ'

The development of our Nonprofit Center with the Michigan Association of United Ways, Food
Bank Council of Michigan, Capital Region Community Foundation, and the Capital Area United
Way continues. With the developer working soon to begin construction, the partners are focused
on the move (scheduled for July, 2011) and the next opportunities for our pmtnership. Dave
Donovan has agreed join our work again. This time he will facilitate a process for the partners to
craft our governance structure which will include our partners at the Michigan Community
Service Commission. You may recall that Dave helped to facilitate the selection process that
identified the Marshall Street Amory for our new home. We are also developing the case
statement for our fund development plan for the necessary resources to support the programming
that will be available to the partner and area nonprofits to be served by the Center. Over the next
two quarters we will be working to find a director for the pmtnership who will be responsible for
the move, our operations and some of the nonprofit services that may be available to the
community.
Challenges

Managing change effectively remains a key challenge-both fi·om an internal structuring
perspective as well as an overall re-visioning process. The strategic planning process is new to
all involved and requires the exercise of new habits and intellectual competencies. Meanwhile
there will continue to be environmental changes to which we Imlst adapt and strategically
address.
To deal with this challenge we will be working to bring external resources to aid in our next
stages of development. We will be looking for an organization to work with the staff on
developing the necessary internal architecture to reflect our new direction that will be reflected in
our mission, vision and goals. This organization will work with me and our Senior
Accountability Team (SAT) to develop our organizational culture and structure in a way that
ensures engagement and alignment of all staff ofMNA. The search for that supp01t has begun
and a draft plan for engagement will be shared with the Executive Committee once completed.

�Our other challenge will be talent management. MNA has grown as an organization, but om
management systems have largely remained underdeveloped. This is especially true in our
Human Resomces work. Staff members responsible for this important fimction have done an
excellent job ensuring our records and processes are compliant and that we work to bring in the
best and the brightest talent. However, we still lack the robust and sophisticated Human
Resomces systems necessary to maintain and grow an organization as large and complicated as
MNA. Therefore, I charged staff with researching the best way to increase our capacity in this
area without incurring additional long term costs. Preliminary data suggests that outsourcing this
fimction with a qualified firm to provide a fitll menu of services will move MNA's internal
systems to the appropriate level while providing an oppottunity to perhaps expand this service in
the fitture.
Finally, regarding om talent attraction needs, we have found great success in utilizing the talents
of a search firm for our senior management positions. This was a suggestion of the Board when
MNA had several senior staff vacancies last year which yielded great additions to our
organization. The vacancy of the Director of Highway T presents a good oppottunity for om
organization to conduct a broad search for a unique set of skills to advance the business plan of
Highway T and increase the technology competencies ofMNA. Our current plan is to reach out
to our previous search firm to determine their competencies and cost structures and determine if
this might be an appropriate role for their services.
Overall, these challenges and opportunities are helping the organization develop a strong new
direction and culture that should position us well for the fitture.

The Cultural Alliance has many marketing programs to promote the offerings of
history museums, art centers, science and nature centers, theaters, musical
ensembles, dance companies, and arts education organizations throughout the

working with many partners to connect the arts and culture sector to the larger
issues of the region, including education, community development, the image
and marketing of the region, and quality of life for residents.

Memorandum
Date: November 10, 2010
To: Allison Treppa and Lisa Sommer King
From: Kyle Caldwell
Subject: MNA Focus Group Findings and Recommendations

Background:

In order to strengthen and improve Michigan Nonprofit Association's brand, four
focus groups were held throughout the state to assess the current attitudes those in
the nonprofit sector have about Michigan non profits and to gain a better
understanding of how Michigan Nonprofit Association can improve their outreach
to these organizations.
MNA partnered with The Rossman Group to facilitate a series of focus groups to
generate discussion about the sector and ultimately determine what messaging
resonates with nonprofits and the public.
Methodology:

Invitations were sent to local non profits- MNA members and nonmembers- within
four different regions asking the organization to participate.
•
•
•
•

Lansing- june 24, 2010
Mount Pleasant- july 7, 2010
Grand Rapids- july 15, 2010
Detroit- August 3, 2010

Consideration was taken to ensure invitations reached a diverse range ofnonprofits
to reflect the diversity of the nonprofit sector. MNA members and nonmembers
from community foundations, United Ways, as well as arts and culture, health and
human services, education, faith-based, etc. organizations were invited to the focus
group located in their region. Invitations were directed to senior level staff, asking
1JPage

32 nonprofit professionals participated (5- Detroit, 11- Grand Rapids, 7Lansing, 9 -Mount Pleasant)

Findings
Overall Themes:
A theme shared among the four focus groups is a strong desire for MNA to elevate
the professionalism of the nonprofit sector.

•

Better nonprofit executive board development and board development
training.

�Recommendations
Based on the feedback provided from the focus groups we recommend the
following:
1. In order for MNA to be effective in providing valuable services and resources,
we must have a deeper understanding of the needs of nonprofit sector on a
regional and subsector level. We recommend holding focus groups every
two years with MNA members and nonmembers in order to:
a. develop an understanding of the needs of the sector,
b. establish a presence within the community,
c. build a common understanding of the role and purpose of MNA,
d. evaluate MNA's progress in the community, and
e. assess or modify MNA services.
2. In order for MNA to be understood, we recommend a public awareness
campaign to educate our publics on the relevance of the nonprofit sector in
Michigan and the role of a state association. The campaign will:
a. highlight the professionalism of the sector,
b. demonstrate our economic value and growth,
c. build MNA's presence as a leader in the nonprofit sector, and
d. address self-esteem issues of the nonprofit sector.
3. In order for MNA to be relevant in the nonprofit sector, we recommend
utilizing the focus group findings to help guide:
a. selection of content for the 2011 Nonprofit Super Conference,
b. development of new or expanding member benefits,
c. ideas for the 2011 training calendar, and
d. the development of positive messages in order to teach non profits to
deliver the message.

Chair's Report
David Eisler, thanked David Price for his past two years of service as the Chair ofMNA and
he thanked him for the work he does everyday for nonprofits. A warm round of applause
followed. David Eisler said that the MNA Executive Committee slatted this year with a retreat
at the Dow Diamond. He said it is a really remarkable facility and thanked Jenee Velasquez
for providing MNA with that opportunity. David repmted that the Executive Committee spent
the day talking about MNA, the role of the Executive Committee and the way that the
Executive Committee wants to see MNA promoted. David said the Executive Committee
expressed their thanks to Kyle and the MNA team for preparing the materials. David asked
how many Board members were on more than one Board. (Many Directors expressed that

�they were on more than six Boards.) David said that MNA has an extraordinary Board
because we have a great cause that MNA supports and he noted that we are not here for the

CMA Endowment Ad Hoc Committee Progress Report
Kyle noted that Edward 0. Blews, Jr. couldn't be present- due to a legislative scheduling
change. Carolyn Bloodwmth provided an update. Carolyn noted that Kyle and the staff have
been doing a great deal of work. This Committee was charged to compile all of the history of
the Endowment to remind everyone why the money was raised and how the money should be
spent. A question was raised by the MCSC as to whether they should have an opportunity to
utilize some of the Endowment ftmds to suppmt the Commission's work as well. This
Committee will be meeting and rep01t the findings at the MNA Board of Directors' meeting
in December. The notes of the CMA Endowment meetings were recorded by a stenographer,
which should provide a good resource.
President's Report
Kyle said a new part of the board agenda has been added to highlight and report areas where
the work ofMNA's mission ofMNA. Teresa Kmetz, President, Capital Area United Way and
Andy Wolber, Executive Director, Highway T, reported on the core of one of the areas of
bringing technology to the new Nonprofit Center and specifically, Capital Area United Way,
by streamlining their work. Andy introduced Teresa Kmetz. Teresa said when you work for a
mid-size nonprofit often times information techno logy falls on someone else. Teresa said that
is CAUW's Marketing Director. Teresa noticed that she was spending more time fixing IT
problems than time out of the office working on marketing the organization. Teresa came to
Highway T through a nontraditional way- through the Capacity Building area, around their
work and training. Then, as a partner of the Nonprofit Center, CAUW became award of
Highway T. In the past, working with a local vendor, they came in and targeted the problem at
the moment. With Highway T, CAUW and Highway T looked at how to make the technology
and existing systems work better. Teresa said Highway T's future focused and looked at the
long term solution. Andy's work was more as a partner, not as a consultant, who was

�concerned and caring about CAUW. Teresa said on behalfofCAUW, we thank Highway T
and MNA for the first step moving toward collaboration.
Kyle Caldwell talked about the New Vision for Michigan Nonprofit Association. He said that
in working with Real Time Strategic Planning, MNA is moving fi·otn the mission statement of
Transforming Communities to Transforming Nonprofits. Kyle said what does it mean to
transform nonprofits? Kyle looks at it as four buckets:
• Be effectiveo Effective managed nonprofits are mission focused, open, transparent and
accountable. They look at maximum human and financial capital and have
good governance.
• Be engaged o Meaningfhlly engaged nonprofits connect their mission to constituents- the
volunteers, donors, policy makers that they serve. They invest and leverage
human capital through service, service-learning and volunteerism.
• Be understood o Significantly understood nonprofits help the public understand how nonprofits
work and promote the effective impacts of their work. They demonstrate the
economic value ofnonprofits and the unique and important role nonprofits
play in communities.
• Be relevant o Continually relevant nonprofits adapt to changing economic, social and
political environments. They tie nonprofit missions to address real-time
oppottunities and challenges and collaborate to build sustainable partnershipsoften by changing the way nonprofits do business for greater impact and
efficiencies.
Kyle said that the Board will be talking more about Real Time Strategic Planning at the
December Board meeting.
A discussion followed and it was noted that MNA wants to be relevant to the agenda, but not
reactionary. It was suggested that we talk about the services that are provided by the
nonprofits to the community that are unique and critical.
Next, Kyle referred to the MNA's annual report which highlights the work ofMNA. He
directed the Board to the photo of the MNA staff. He said that most often he is thanked for the
work ofMNA, but it is the whole team ofMNA that performs the work ofMNA. He thanked
the staff ofMNA for their work.
David Eisler said that the MNA Annual Report is extraordinarily well done. A warm round of
applause followed.
Finance Committee Report
Tina Bruce, Director of Finance, gave an overview of the Financial Statements for the Month
Ending June 30,2010. Tina noted that areas that have shortfalls in funds are grants and
sponsorships which is part of the $254,000 deficit. Another area is due to a decrease in
consulting and program fees.

�A motion was made by William Mayes and seconded by Sharon Parl&lt;S to accept the
Financial Statements for month ending June 30, 2010. Motion carried.
Next, Tina reviewed the MNA Financial Policies and Procedure Manual. Tina noted that last
year the Auditors suggested that MNA needed a clear set of written Financial Policies and
Procedures.
A discussion followed and kudos were given to Tina and her staff for the well documented
Financial Policies and Procedures Manual. William Mayes said it is a great model for other
nonprofits.
A motion was made by Kathy Agard and seconded by David Price to accept the MNA
Financial Policies and Procedure Manual. Motion carried.
Public Policy Report
Rob Collier reported lawmakers often fail to understand the work the nonprofits do in
partnership with government to provide the essential community services that Michigan
residents need. State and local governments are seeking to tap nonprofits' charitable status to
find new revenue sources to fill in their budget deficits. Nonprofits need a strong and effective
partner in government to fitlfill their missions and meet the needs oflocal communities.
The Michigan Nonprofit Association seeks to advance a government reform agenda that
improves the relationship between nonprofits and government and restores the social
compact-the agreement that government and nonprofits share an important responsibility to
communities while maintaining the core values of each.
The Govemment Reform Agenda
•
•
•
•
•

Support legislation and policy makers that believe in a strong government/nonprofit
partnership
Advance policies that protect and enhance the charitable status ofnonprofits
Change government grants and contracting processes so that they are transparent, fair,
and pay for the filii costs of providing services to communities.
Restore trust in government through transparent, fair and representative election
processes.
Create the context for thoughtful and high quality decisions fi·om policy makers that
improve Michigan for the short- and long-term.

A motion was made by David Price and seconded by Scott Dzurka that MNA approve
the Government Reform Agenda. Motion carried.
A discussion followed and the Public Policy Committee was congratulated on the great job of
identifYing these broad topics and incorporating an agenda that puts us at the table.
Rob Collier gave the Board an update on the Nonprofit Caucus priorities. He said that due to
the upcoming election, SB860 was delayed, but we are hopeful the legislation, now SB 1418,
will pass through committee quickly and will be on the House floor for a vote before the end
of the current legislative session.

�Rob Collier said MNA had a very successful Nonprofit Day; he thanked Kari Sederburg, the
staff and the Board members that attended. Several of the candidates came to visit and he was
very encouraged by the conversations. Both of the candidates of the Secretary of State
position indicated a great interest in using the branch offices to compliment the volunteer
centers and how we could do more to engage Michiganders in volunteer ism and service.
Kyle said MNA had a better than expected attendance and Kari and the staff did a wonderfi.tl
job. Kyle said it is not about Nonprofit Day but a habit of getting Nonprofits engaged. Kari
Sederburg thanked MNA staff and all Board members who attended and helped make the day
a great success.
Sharon Parks said that the session she chaired, Reforming the Michigan Landscape, was
fascinating and had some thoughtfi.tl comments. The panelists were, Steve Tobocman,
William Rustem, and David Waymire. Topics included term limits, the Constitutional
Convention, redistricting and government contracting.
A discussion followed and it was noted that the breakout sessions were very informative,
very practical and had a lot of good take away information.
Kari Sederburg noted that through the Michigan Participation Project there are 18 Nonprofit
organizations that get together monthly to talk about different activities on voter engagement.
MNA was selected by the National Volunteer Voter Engagement Network to distributing five
mini-grants to nonprofit sector. Kyle noted that Donna Murray Brown is working in the
Detroit office to coordinate that effort.
Kari Sederburg noted that the deadline for filing 990's was extended to October 15, 2010.

Fund Advancement
John Schneider welcomed Liz Siver to the Fund Advancement Committee. Liz is also a
member of the Highway T Advisory Board. The Fund Advancement Committee's focus is our
big foundations due to the influence they have and MNA wants to keep them educated and
informed. The Ford Foundation recently contacted the C. S. Mott Foundation for a suggestion
of an organization that could support through their civil society grant organization and C. S.
Matt suggested MNA. We have submitted a grant, so stay tuned for an update.
John Schneider noted that May 10 and II is MNA's SuperConference next year, and he asked
everyone to consider being a sponsor or exhibitor.
Next, Joln1 Schneider asked that everyone contribute to the MNA Strategic Plan. MNA needs
I 00% pmticipation fi·om the Board - in the past, MN A has had 60% participation. The
challenge is to have l 00% patticipation. Percentage of participation is more impottant than
the dollar amount oft he contribution. John Sclmeider called for the Board get to I 00% by the
end of20 l 0 and then MNA can celebrate at the December Board meeting!

Recommendations from the Board Development Committee
N. Charles Anderson said the Board Development Committee met on August 25, 2010 and
reviewed the MNA Board Committee List for 2010-2011. After reviewing the MNA Profile
sheets, it was recommended that invitations to join the following Committees be sent as listed
below:

It was also noted that Lorna Utley was invited to the Audit Committee and Rachel Kuntzsch
joined the Public Policy Committee.
A motion to accept the appointment as noted above was made by David Price and
seconded by Bill Liebold. Motion carried.
N. Charles reported that Board member attendance and engagement was reviewed and there
were no major concerns and the MNA Strategic Fund was discussed and I 00% patticipation
by MNA Board of Directors to the MNA Strategic Fund was stressed as more fimders require
documentation of involvement by the Board.
Michigan Nonprofit Center Update
Scott Dzurka said what Teresa Kmetz said about the partnership of the nonprofit center was
really important. Scott said since the project has been moved back it really gives time to focus
on defining the work. Dan Thompson said the move in date is mid-June and it gives more
time to get organized. Everyone is happy to work with Highway T for Information
Technology. Scott said that there was an article about the concerns over the labor issue. He
hoped this will be resolved in a peacefi1l fashion. Bob Kolt, Kolt Communications, is the
Public Relations spokesperson for the project. It was noted that a capitol campaign will be
developed with all of the partners involved to fimd the move.

Rob Collier rep01ted that as many may know, Kathy Agard and Sharon Parks are retiring at
the end of2010. Rob wanted the minutes to reflect that the MNA Board of Directors is most

Public Policy Committee
Board Report
December 14, 2010
Action Item
There are no action items at this time.
Discussion Items
A. Nonprofit Caucus- Legislative Priorities
• Charitable Organizations &amp; Solicitations Act {COSA)- The proposed legislation (SB
1528) that would amend COSA passed out of the Families and Human Services
Committee on November 10, and subsequently out of the Senate later that day. SB
1528 also passed out of the House Committee on the New Economy and Quality of
Life on December 1". Unfortunately, SB 1528 did not make it on the House floor for
a vote before the Senate adjourned its last voting session of the year. While we are
disappointed this legislation did not pass, it will be one of the top priorities of the
Nonprofit Caucus in 2011.

B:

•

SB860: Youth Work Permit legislation- This legislation passed out of both the House
and Senate and is waiting to be signed by the Governor! Congrats on all the hard
work committee members and staff have put into getting this legislation passed.

•

Sales Tax Exemption (HB6370)- This legislation will not be passed before the end of
the session, but Senator Tupac Hunter (the bill sponsor) has assured us he will
reintroduce this legislation next year. In the meantime, Treasury is supportive of
this legislation and will write a memo of support for the clarifications highlighted in
this proposed bill.

Legislative Strategy
• Nonprofit Caucus Leadership- After a discussion with Senator Mark Jansen, one of
the Caucus' co-chairs, it became apparent we could not ask any of the current
Caucus co-chairs to step down from their position. Since 'three of the four chairs are
returning, the Public Policy Committee has agreed that it makes sense to Increase
the number of co-chairs from four to eight- so we can have equal representation
from Democrats and Republicans from both the House and Senate. MNA staff and
members of the Public Policy Committee are in the process of determining who we
should approach as co-chairs.

�C:

•

Legislative Leadership- MNA staff is working with the Public Policy Committee to
schedule meetings with the new legislative leadership- Senate Majority Leader
Randy Richardville and Speaker of the House James Bolger -to discuss the nonprofit
sector and its economic impact in Michigan.

•

Outreach to Governor-Elect Snyder- We are in the process of developing a briefing
book to give to the new administration that will outline the importance of the
nonprofit sector, and will include information on our various initiatives and
research.

Redistricting Collaborative Update
• As part of ongoing efforts to promote nonprofit activities in civic engagement, MNA
is leading the efforts in convening the Michigan Redistricting Collaborative, a group
of nonprofits working to educate non profits and the public about the need to
change the redistricting process. This Collaborative, currently made up of a steering
committee of five other orgaizations- Center for Michigan, League of Women
Voters of Michigan, Common Cause of Michigan, Michigan Voice and Michigan
Campaign Finance Network- is working to educate the nonprofit community,
legislature and general public on deficiencies of the current redistricting process
focusing on the lack of transparency and public involvement, and the need for fair,
competitive and representative districts. The Collaborative is in the process of
growing its membership and will begin community outreach in the new year.

D. Research Agenda
• Tax Reform- Part of MNA's upcoming research agenda will include a look at tax
reform and how certain proposed changes could impact the nonprofit sector. MNA
staff will look into data that has already been compiled and identify gaps so we can
focus on our efforts on answering those research objectives.
•

E:

Quarterly Survey- The most recent quarterly survey, conducted in partnership with
the Johnson Center, looks at the potential vulnerability of nonprofits to paying fees
or payments in lieu of taxes (PILOTS) in Michigan. This survey was distributed to
nonprofits across Michigan in late November.

Legislative Updates
• Senate rejects amendments to repeal new 1099 reporting requirements
The Senate voted on November 29 to reject two amendments offered by Senators
Max Baucus (D-MT) and Mike Johanns (R-NE) that would have fully repealed new
Form 1099 information reporting requirements put in place by the Patient
Protection and Affordable Care Act (PL 111-148). The current law requires
businesses and nonprofits to file Form 1099 information reports for purchases of
goods or services exceeding $600. The Baucus amendment would have fully
repealed the new rules without any budgetary offset, while the Johanns
amendment would have paid for full repeal by rescinding $39 billion in non-defense

�discretionary spending. The new information reporting rules have been broadly
criticized by businesses and nonprofits, whose efforts to repeal the requirements
have garnered support from large numbers of both Republicans and Democrats,
including President Obama. Baucus said after the vote that he had spoken with
Johanns, and that the two senators plan to bring the 1099 issue back to the floor.
•

The Segal Americorps Education Award Tax Relief Act (HR 15961
HR 1596 has been introduced to deal with college affordability and developing
consistency in the tax code as it relates to the awarding of the Segal AmeriCorps
Education Awards. H.R. 1596 and the Senate companion billS. 3857 would exclude
the education award from being taxed so that those who serve can apply the full
value of the award towards their higher education.

•

Democrats delay push for tax cut extensions until after Thanksgiving
As struggles continued to mount over policy and strategy, Senate Democrats
decided to push proposing legislation to deal with the expiring 2001 and 2003 tax
cuts until after Thanksgiving, possibly jeopardizing a year-end deal with Republicans
to pass an extension. The decision is a setback for Senate Finance Committee
Chairman Max Baucus (D-MT), who reportedly was ready to unveil a one or twoyear extension of all the expiring cuts, including those for high-income taxpayers.

•

Baucus says Senate not close to estate tax deal. focus is on expiring tax breaks
Senate Finance Committee Chairman Max Baucus (D-MT) said that while lawmakers
want to take action on the estate tax, which is scheduled to rise sharply to pre-tax
cut levels in 2011 ($1 million exemption; 55% top rate), there is very little discussion
occurring on the topic as senators instead remain focused on the bigger picture of
the expiring 2001 and 2003 tax breaks. The White House has favored making the
2009 estate tax levels ($3.5 million exemption; 45% rate) permanent, but
Republicans and some moderate Democrats have argued for something closer to a
$5 million exemption and 35% rate. Despite the present uncertainty, the estate tax
may still be addressed as part of a broader package to extend the 2001 and 2003
cuts as well as a number of expiring or expired "tax extenders," including the IRA
rollover and other charitable giving incentives.

VCM Quarterly Repott

Below you will fmd some key highlights of our work this past qumter.

Vohmteer Generation Fund
The Corporation for National and Community Service awarded its Volunteer Generation Fund grants
totaling $4 million to 19 U.S. state service commissions to better recruit, manage, and retain volunteet~ to
address pressing social challenges. We are fottunate to have the Michigan Community Service
Commission as one ofthe awarded states with the largest grant, of over $400,000, in the counlty. The
grant is awarded for a three year period with yearly renewals.
Specifically, the grants will support activities to identify effective approaches to increase the number of
volunteem, strengthen the capacity of volunteer connector organizations to recruit and retain volunteet~,
and develop strategies to effectively use volunteers to solve local problems. The grantees will provide a
variety of services to organizations, including training and consultation to volunteer centet~. Michigan
will select up to seven sub grantees to implement this initiative at the local level. The Commission
received seventeen "intent to apply" forms and reviewed I 0 grant applications. We are happy to repott
that the following Volunteer Centet~ in Michigan have been selected to receive funds:
• Allegan County United Way and Volunteer Center
• Volunteer Center of Southwest Michigan

•
•
•
•
•

Resource Genesee
Volunteer Center of Greater Kalamazoo
Volunteer Lenawee!
United Way &amp; Volunteer Connections of Montcalm and Ionia Counties
Volunteer Muskegon!

The Volunteer Centet~ of Michigan with play a partnering role in this grant. The commission will pmtner
with us to provide the training and technical assistance to the sub grantees, coordination of a statewide
and local volunteer oppmtunities pmtal and to ovet~ee the contracting process for the overall evaluation
of the grant. Our sub-grant from the MCSC will be in the amount of$145.957.00.
Regional Gathering ofHandsOn Affiliates
During the month of October three staff members ofVCM had the opportunity to attend regional
gatherings of affiliates from around the country. VCM staff members gathered national information
and resources to share with the volunteer center network in Michigan, including grant, technology
and programming opportunities. Sharing successes and challenges with other affiliates around the
countty provided time for idea generation and the development of action steps to strengthen both
local affiliates as well as the national network. The disaster preparedness boot camp training proved
to be an incredibly valuable time to learn specifics about what a volunteer center's role could and
should be during times of disaster.

�VCM AmeriCorps*VISTA
VCM administered an RFP process to recruit new and continuing Volunteer Centers to host
AmeriCorps*VISTA members for 2010-20 II. Two Volunteer Centet~ were awarded as new host sites:
The Greater Kalamazoo Volunteer Center and Hemt of West Michigan United Way. Three Volunteer
Centers were awarded as continuing host sites: Upper Peninsula Volunteer Center, Char-Em United Way
and Volunteer Lenawee. There will be a second RFP process in the spring to recruit for more host sites
for 2010-20 II.
Intemal MNA-Volunteer Program
VCM took the lead on implementing a skill-based intemal volunteer program for Michigan Nonprofit
Association. Three volunteer opportunities were created and all three positions have been filled.
Volunteers will begin their setvice by attending an orientation at the MNA Lansing office on December
3"'. The volunteet~ will work on the following projects:
• Research for the 2012 Michigan Campus Compact Service Learning Institute
• Develop an online volunteer training module, and
• Create a new media toolkit for MNA

Com cast Collaboration Initiative Funding
The third and final year ofComcast Collaborative sub-granting, focused on increasing volunteerism
around the issues of literacy and mentoring is undenvay. All five sub-grantee proposals were approved
for a third year offhnding and collaboratives are in the midst of their final year of programming. The
funding for this initiative has been made possible by the Comcast Foundation. Third year funding will
conclude in April20 II. A brief ovetview of each collaborative is below:
•

•

•

•

•

Grand Rapids Community College and the Kent County Mentoring Collaborative are
working to build infrastructure and increase college student civic engagement in
addressing community needs around youth mentoring.
Macomb Community College and Pinewood Elementary are partnering to ameliorate the
many difficulties faced by at-risk youth by providing a Lunch Buddies mentoring
program that incorporates tutoring, purposeful activities, life skills training, and
leadership development.
Michigan State University and Capital Area United Way are building capacity of youth
transitioning out of foster care to successfully obtain a post-secondary degree, consistent
with each youth's talents, dreams and life plans.
Northern Michigan University, in partnership with Teaching Family Homes (TFH) of
Upper Michigan, is working to provide youth in residential foster care with mentors ft·om
NMU to help teach youth about healthy lifestyles.
The partnership between the Volunteer Center of Southwest Michigan (VCSWMI) and
Andrews University is working to support a mentoring collaborative focused on
networking various local mentoring organizations while connecting Andrews University
students with the local Volunteer Center and community service work.

Site Visits
During this qumter VCM staff met with the three Directm~ of the "Tri-Cities" (Bay City, Midland and
Saginaw) area. This meeting gave us an opportunity to see how a group of our internal Volunteer Centers
were faring as local economies were dealing with cuts in funding. These three Volunteer Centet~ have
been developing a corporate engagement piece with Dow Corning. The Corporation has come fmth to
suppmt all three centers with "Volunteer Match" as a community wide volunteer matching software. As
this project moves fonvard the group will be sharing with us their successes and challenges so that others
in the network can glean from their learning.

�VCM staff will undetiake an internal assessment of our centers and develop additional plans for site visits
that take into account their respective community strengths and also if any have VISTA placements and
are recipients of the Volunteer Generation Fund awards by the MCSC.
