Agreed.  You can also view it as short term and longer term aims. Short 
term is to support Malcolm Tredinnick Memorial Prize.

Longer term is to sustain/raise/improve/promote LA's profile and that 
can lead to it being able to better address shorter aims in the future 
(eg: improve its ability to support similar cause).

So I think its appropriate to suggest some sort of recognition in return.

Cheers
Daniel.
