Combined Insurance teamed up with the Limerick Leader newspaper to launch the 7th give-away on Friday 15th October 2004.

The scheme gave away a share of a €20,000 prize pool to people, groups and charities who waned to benefit the community in the Limerick area.

Later in the year, a panel of judges decided which of the awards entries were most beneficial to the community and most deserving of the cash, then award winners were invited to a special awards ceremony.
