MICF.ORG Mackinac College Legacy Fund 2016 is the 50th Anniversary of Mackinac College Inaugural which serves as a reminder of the dedication to the expanded College motto : To Learn. To Live. To Lead. A Time. A Place. A Legacy. The Mackinac College (1966-1970) Legacy Fund was created as a glowing tribute to a unique and exemplary educational experience enhanced by its Island setting. The short history failed to diminish the long-term blessings bestowed thanks in great part to dedicated administrators and amazing professors. In the time since one professor called Mackinac College “…the best of the best, however brief”. Another international professor talked of Mackinac College as her ”…most memorable teaching position.” Financial Position and 2015 Grants Statement of Financial Position Assets Cash and investments $77,555 Investments $9,375,776 Noncurrent Assets Investments—Corporate Bonds $53,720 Promises to give—(net of current portion) $400 Other Assets Conservation Easement $377,778 Liabilities and Net Assets Current liabilities 0 Total New Worth $9,885,229 Beyond amazing is that time has done nothing to diminish the memory of this experience but rather has only heightened the appreciation of its value and our pride as a College family. 2015 Grants American Legion $3,045 Cub Scout Equipment Mackinac Arts Council $3,000 Music in the Park Allocations from the Mackinac College Legacy Fund, in the form of grants, are directed towards educational and environment projects on the Island.

The extra support allowed me to focus my attention more on my education and goals rather than on financial issues. It also gave me the opportunity to expand my knowledge in new places, such as Big Sky, MT where I completed my mandatory 30 week internship for my degree. With this being said, I would like to take this chance to thank the community for the support! Mackinac Island is a special place and I'm so proud to call it home. Marie Elizabeth Bunker |Class of 2011 I am unimaginably grateful for what the scholarships from Mackinac Island have aided me in pursuing. My career goals have been made more accessible not only financially but also through the knowledge that the community I love and am so grateful to have been apart of still supports me in my endeavors. This scholarship is incredibly generous and I only hope that future Mackinac Island students see it as a gift to not only be apart of this wonderful community but as a stepping stone that helps them pursue their dreams. Collin Armstrong | Class of 2013 Youth Advisory Council 2015 was a productive year for the Youth Advisory Council (YAC). YAC is open to 7-12 grade students from Mackinac Island. They grant youth oriented requests twice a year, volunteer at Meals on Snowmobiles, AllScholarships Dinner, North Chicago Soup Kitchen and gift giving to our more experienced residents around Christmas time. The activities are guided by Lynda Hepker and Chelsea Berkshire. They are assisted by Alison Sehoyan and Lisa Dziobak. Grants for 2015 included programing for the Mackinac Island Public School, City of Mackinac Island Recreation Department and YAC. Total Grants were $10,263. The youth work hard at ensuring that every age group has at least one program or activity that is funded. We hope that what they learn about philanthropy and volunteerism will play a role throughout their lives. MICF.ORG YAC at fundraising brunch, YAC in Chicago Jeannette Doud Fund The Jeannette Doud Fund was created by friends and family to honor the life of this amazing woman. Earnings from this fund will go to projects that will enhance the quality of life, provide educational programming and other areas that are needed on Mackinac Island. Mackinac Island Yacht Club Scholarship Fund The MIYC Scholarship Fund was created to enhance the ability of our Island graduates to pursue post-secondary educational opportunities. The MIYC board and members were looking for a way to give back to the community that provides the membership with such a beautiful home for their Club. For a full listing of funds go to: MICF.ORG/FUNDS Mission Statement Recognizing the dignity and beauty of Mackinac Island, the Mackinac Island Community Foundation serves the general well-being of Island residents and visitors. Our purpose is to raise permanent endowment and special purpose funds, manage them and distribute the earnings for charitable purposes. We are a vehicle to hold private resources for the Island’s common good. We operate under the simple concept that charitable money will grow over time when wisely invested and so will continue to have an impact long after the original gift is made. MICF.ORG
