CPM Mentor Tribute Wall

The College of Podiatric Medicine (CPM) Mentor Tribute Wall provides a unique opportunity to honor the mentors who have profoundly influenced your life. By making a tax-deductible gift, you can express your heartfelt gratitude for the guidance, inspiration, and lasting impact they’ve had on your journey. Your mentor’s name will be prominently displayed, serving as a testament to the value of mentorship for students, prospective students, and everyone who passes through CPM’s halls.

With every donation level, you’ll also have the chance to send a letter of gratitude to your mentor, informing them of the recognition and acknowledging the difference they’ve made in your life. These meaningful gifts not only celebrate your mentor but also inspire future generations by demonstrating the power of support and encouragement.

When you select to honor a mentor, you are also selecting to provide financial support to CPM students to help them become the mentors and health care leaders of tomorrow.

Mentor levels of recognition

Advisor ($150)

Think of the mentor who always made time to listen, offer guidance, or simply be a sounding board when you needed it. Whether it was sage advice or a gentle nudge in the right direction, their support helped shape your path. Honor them by sharing their name and showing how much they’ve meant to you.

  • Mentor Mention: Your mentor’s name will be featured on the digital Mentor Tribute Wall.
  • Letter of Gratitude: Your mentor will receive a letter congratulating them for being recognized by you.

Supporter ($350)

Some mentors are the ones who lift you up when you doubt yourself, cheering you on and reminding you of your potential. Celebrate the supporter who has always believed in you and kept you moving forward.

  • Mentor Focus: Feature your mentor with a special 20-second tribute on the digital Mentor Tribute Wall.
  • Plus: Includes everything in the Advisor level recognition.

Advocate ($700)

The most powerful advocates often work quietly, championing you behind the scenes. Maybe they spoke up for you when you needed it most, or maybe they saw your worth even when you didn’t. Now is your chance to tell their story and show them how much their belief in you meant.

  • Mentor Spotlight: Share their story with photos, quotes, or a personal message, and your mentor will receive a 45-second spotlight feature.
  • **Social Media Shout-Out: Recognize your mentor across CPM social media platforms.
  • Plus: Includes everything in the Advisor level recognition.

Champion ($1,000)

Sometimes, a mentor becomes more than just a guide—they become a life champion. Whether they’ve walked with you through your biggest decisions or made a lasting impact in a short time, these champions leave a mark on your heart. Honor their influence with a tribute that reflects the depth of their impact.

  • Mentor Impact: Celebrate your mentor with a moving motion graphic video, including personal stories, images, and/or quotes.
  • **Social Media Shout-Out: Honor them on CPM social media.
  • Website Highlight: Honor your mentor with a dedicated blog entry on the CPM website, featured for one year from the date the gift is finalized.
  • Plus: Includes everything in the Advisor level recognition.

Note: You can choose to make a one-time donation or spread your gift over 12 months, with your mentor’s recognition added to the wall once the full pledge is received. We reserve the right to make updates to the display, with names being showcased on the Mentor Tribute Wall for up to two years unless otherwise specified.

**Social Media Shout-Out: Your name, along with your mentor’s, and any tags/handles, will be shared on social media. However, you may opt out of the social media feature if you prefer to keep it more private.
