The scheme is designed to pfovide training for young. *Ul-be ioumalists from minority and otherw7se di58dvantaged comrnunilies in the UK and Ireland, including attendance at the annual CIJ conferencè in London. The McKee family subsequenlly agreed to [11e funding for a fourth year. Eleven ndIdates.- from 47 applicants- attended the 2019 CIJ conference with Ihe hdp of Ihe bursary scheme. The scheme was another casualty of Covid-19, being suspended for2020. However, during the year outreach events were held in Belfasl and Hull to increase the number of fvture applicants. More than 200 attended these events. It was also agreed in 2019 to fund a series of CIJ regional conferencelworkshops to hèld around the UK. The first such one4ay event was held at Newcasue Unive[LY in November 2019. Students and academics made up the majority of arojnd 80 attendees. Funding of £10.000 was Frfovided by the Charity. The pan(JemiG prevented any similar evw)t during the year. In 2018 the Charity agreed to fund annual Lorana Sullivan Fellowships at ProPulAica. the New York-ba5ed non-profit publisherspecialising in invesb"gats"vejoumalism. cosb.ng a total of 5115.000 each year for an initial three- year period beginning 1 August 2018.

The Charity has been considering the funding of a new scholarship programme atthe City University of New York's Craig Newmattt Graduate Scho)l of Joumalism. Hthvevw. in wew of the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on the bility of CUNY sludenls to wxplete thwr stu(lies. the Charity deaded to postpone that decision and instead support CUNY'S $1 million Fuiure Joumalisl Fund appeal lo assi%t students in need offinanckgl support. The Charity donated $100,000 in April 2020. That donation was matched by other donors. CUNY confirmed that. as a result of the success ol the appeal. all 98 members of the J-school class of 2020 graduated and none were forced lo leave for financial reasons. A further $SO.000 wa5 donated in February 2021. The appèal ensLbred that 88 members of the J-schod class of 2021 were able to gra(luate.

The Charity received oTirMa110n that $2.464.$00 in matching funds had been received by 30 June 2020 wrth which to provide the new Sullivan schdarships. beginning in the 2018-19 academic yEar_ The full amount due to be donated by the Charity lo CrAurnkJ"a by 30 Junè 2019 under Ihe original 2001 Sullivan scholarship prc4Jramme was accounted for in the 2017 accounts. Consequently the charilable expenditure in the previous year'5 ac¢ounts doe5 not include the final Columbia 5thokgrship paent of $191.442. made in July 2019.
