Ms Denise Charlton:

I wish to thank the Chair and the members of the committee for listening to us speak about the Community Foundation for Ireland's work in general and in the context of the all-island fund. We urge the committee to make recommendations to the Government on the national policy on philanthropy and to promote the difference that philanthropy can make in this country. We believe it is part of the recovery. The Community Foundation for Ireland would be delighted to work with any donor or organisation.
