Ireland's Leadership and The Irish American Partnership
Former Taoiseach (Prime Minister of Ireland), Bertie Ahern
"The Irish American Partnership's focus on economic development and, in particular, on education, plays an important role in developing our young people, and through them building and growing our economy. I believe that The Irish American Partnership focuses on the critical issues.
I salute all of the individuals and corporations who have supported the Partnership and I commend it to you as worthy of further support for the excellent work which they are doing."
President of Ireland, Mary McAleese
"The Irish American Partnership provides an important focus on support for job education, economic development and education in Ireland. Its contribution to Ireland in these fields, through its members and supporters, is greatly valued."
Former Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, Paul Murphy MP
"The wide range of education and economic development projects which The Irish American Partnership has undertaken are tangible evidence that its fusion of goodwill and American business savvy offers much to the people in Northern Ireland and throughout the island of Ireland.
The Partnership's investments in the young people of Northern Ireland and across its communities, have given it an important part to play in shaping its future."
Deputy First Minister, Northern Ireland Assembly, Martin McGuinness MP
"I would like to thank you and your colleagues for your generosity in providing the opportunity for a number of our schools to benefit from funding under the programme for the purchase of library books.
The Partnership's awards will significantly enhance the range and quality of literature available in these schools and will provide pleasure and stimulate and encourage further reading and learning by their pupils."
