awards to recognise the achievements and impact of professional and volunteer fundraisers.

Paul Kane, Chairman of the Institute of Fundraising Northern Ireland, said: “This
is an important new initiative from the Institute as it recognises the work and 
commitment of professional fundraisers and in this the Year of the Volunteer the
importance of Volunteer Fundraisers.

“The awards categories are Volunteer Fundraiser of the year and Professional Fundraiser
of the year.

“Prizes include a weekend for two at Radisson SAS Roe, Limavady and a bursary to
attend Institute of Fundraising Convention, London July 2005.”
