Connect with your foundation finance peers to learn about all things finance. During this program, participants will have the opportunity to spend some time discussing "Understanding Foundation KPIs" with a member from the firm of DoerenMayhew. We will then discuss other finance and operations topics that are of interest to the group.

Join us for this virtual gathering for staff and trustees interested in public policy to share what you’re seeing in your own work and crowdsource ideas from your peers across the state. This will be an open space for discussion, so please bring your questions, concerns and highlights from your own work to share with the group. This conversation is open to all CMF members, whether your work touches policy or you have a dedicated policy role.

Join your Michigan philanthropy peers and other stakeholders involved in housing work across the state. We hope to continue the conversation from the April 22 CMF and OFL hosted in-person Housing Summit. This will be an opportunity to share, hear, and learn from peers about cross-sector partnerships and innovative approaches being used to address Michigan's housing shortage and discuss needed policy changes. Please join us in this important conversation to hear lessons learned, deepen partnerships, and build coalitions along with policy opportunities to inform future work in addressing housing needs of Michiganders.

Join this highly interactive program alongside your Midwest colleagues to build your narrative skills and explore the power of storytelling—along with the risks of leaving certain stories untold. Through reflection-driven personal and organizational storytelling prompts and thoughtful discussion, you’ll gain practical takeaways on how philanthropic organizations can deepen trust and legacy through shared, human-centered stories.

Join us for this virtual gathering for communications staff to share what you’re seeing in your own work and crowdsource ideas from your peers across the state. We encourage you to bring any projects or campaigns in the works for an informal “show and tell” group discussion. This may include ongoing work, a new project or something on the horizon you’d like to ask your peers about. If you’d rather listen in you are welcome to do so, this is an open space for you to connect with your fellow communicators in our CMF community. This conversation is open to all CMF members whether your work touches communications or you have a dedicated communications role.
