Community Foundation Databook PUBLISHED IN 2019
2
WelcomeThe Community Foundation Databook is one of the longest standing surveys produced at CMF and one of the most comprehensive statewide looks at community foundations to exist in the field. It serves as an important benchmarking tool for key operational and financial indicators, as well as a collective story of community foundation giving to leverage when advocating with state and national government.
This databook represents perhaps the most comprehensive look at Michigan community foundations available, and it is CMF’s commitment to you to provide this information annually for your planning and benchmarking purposes.
New this year: This year’s databook shows the results from a new set of questions asked in the 2019 survey focusing on office space. We’ve traditionally asked community foundations whether they own or lease their office space but now the data goes a step further to ask those who their space whether they have tenants and whether their space is made available for community convenings. You can see the results on Page 20!
Thank you for your time and commitment to providing this information each year. Your efforts benefit your community foundation peers as well as the field at large. This information is critically important to providing visibility to overall trends and norms in community foundation giving.
This publication is developed collaboratively within CMF, with multiple departments coming together to ensure we provide the best possible publication to meet your needs. This 2019 edition was made possible with outstanding support from Alexandra Zisser, our former Skillman Foundation Learning and Impact Fellow who is now completing a Master’s degree program overseas.
We hope you find the data informative and helpful in your planning. Please know that we welcome your comments or questions at any time.
With gratitude,
Dave LindbergChief Financial OfficerCMF

Methodology and Data With 57 community foundation members in Michigan, the CMF Community Foundation Databook represents the most complete picture of community foundations in our state, with 51 respondents.
The community foundation databook data is gathered through an online survey. Each community foundation receives a unique log-in and password to their respective survey. The survey can be saved and does not need to be completed at one time. Often the survey is completed by more than one individual in a community foundation, as the data spans departments and functional areas. The survey is voluntary and all questions are optional. Each question notes the number of responses received.
The data represented in this databook was collected during the months of June-August 2019. Where applicable, a year-over-year comparison is noted, however the quantity of respondents varies slightly from year-to-year, so this is not an exact comparison and shouldn’t be taken as such.
Prior to finalizing the databook, each community foundation received back their raw dataset as it was submitted and was given opportunity to review the data and make any updates to account for any erroneous data entry errors.
There are limitations to this data. They include, but may not be limited to: human error in data entry, different interpretations of the questions being asked, different definitions across organizations and incomplete data to work from on the community foundation side.
Fiscal Year End Date for ReportingFor the survey administered in 2019, foundations were asked to indicate the end date of the fiscal year for which they were reporting data. The majority of respondents indicated their fiscal year end date was December 31, however some respondents have an end date of March 31, June 30 or September 30.
