# IFC bursary winner donates to give another fundraiser the same opportunity - Link: https://fundraising.co.uk/2008/10/23/ifc-bursary-winner-donates-give-another-fundraiser-same-opportunity/ - Published: 2008-10-23T11:04:24+01:00 - Author: Howard Lake At last week’s International Fundraising Congress in Holland I met the winners of this year’s bursaries which enable fundraisers who otherwise might not be able to afford the fees to attend the Congress. One of the winners was Susan Nanjobe Kisitu, Executive Director of the [Uganda Society for Disabled Children](http://www.usdc.or.ug). In our interview she explains how she applied for the bursary and what it will mean to her and her organisation. ## Advertisement Indeed, she has been so impressed with the Congress that she has donated to the [Fundraisers Fund](http://www.fundraisersfund.org) herself to help another fundraiser attend next year’s Congress. * **[Kylie Minogue becomes patron of student bursary fund charity](https://fundraising.co.uk/2010/01/13/kylie-minogue-becomes-patron-student-bursary-fund-charity/)**( 13 January 2010) * **[Major Donor Special Interest Group offers six bursaries for 2011](https://fundraising.co.uk/2011/05/06/major-donor-special-interest-group-offers-six-bursaries-2011/)**( 6 May 2011) * **[Four small charity bursaries available for Scottish Conference 2011](https://fundraising.co.uk/2011/06/05/four-small-charity-bursaries-available-scottish-conference-2011/)**( 5 June 2011) ## Comments ### By: simoncollings - Link: https://fundraising.co.uk/2008/10/23/ifc-bursary-winner-donates-give-another-fundraiser-same-opportunity/#comment-3342 - Published: 2008-10-28T08:12:39+00:00 Howard, thanks so much for recording this interview and including it in your blog– it says it all. It’s people like Susan we want to help through the Fundraisers Fund and her amzing generosity in making a donation herself is inspiring.
