The Information Technologists Company (ITC), the 100th Livery Company of the City
of London, was the charitable beneficiary of the e-Government National Awards dinner
last week. ITC supports a wide range of not-for-profit organisations helping them
to obtain the maximum benefit from their IT resources.

The e-Government National Awards were presented at London’s Dorchester Hotel with
ITC’s clerk, Michael Grant as Master of Ceremonies, presenting the winners with 
their awards.

Prime Minister the Rt Hon Gordon Brown MP joined the event via video link in order
to congratulate the winners in the 11 categories.

ITC, formerly the Worshipful Company of Information Technologists, was presented
with a £1,000 cheque at the dinner. Charles Hughes of ITC accepted it and used the
opportunity to highlight the work that ITC’s charitable arm, [iT4Communities](http://www.it4communities.org.uk)(
iT4C) does, matching professional IT volunteers with not-for-profit organisations
in need of IT support, and highlighted the need for more volunteers to come forward.
