We all have that one mentor who has made a lasting impact on our journey in hospice and palliative care—the person who guided us, inspired us, and stood by us during challenges and triumphs. Now, it’s your chance to say thank you in a meaningful way.
Create an AAHPM Tribute Page in honor or memory of your mentor and share your story of how they shaped your path. Plus, from now until #GivingTuesday, donations made to tribute pages will be matched dollar-for-dollar, up to $40,000, thanks to a generous Anonymous Donor! This means your contribution will have twice the impact, celebrating your mentor’s legacy while supporting critical educational initiatives that empower the next generation of hospice and palliative care professionals.
“The field of hospice and palliative medicine is blessed to have so many amazing mentors. This initiative hopes to reward several of these leaders and was inspired by two truly exceptional mentors: Bob Arnold and Janet Bull, who have individually supported dozens if not hundreds of us throughout our careers. They possess very different styles, but both extol altruism, patience, and a relentless commitment to advancing our field. Each would proofread your manuscript within hours, talk you through your most challenging situation, and provide limitless connections and opportunities to advance your career and life. They both developed specialized training programs that had a profound impact on quality of care delivered by so many of our teams. The American Academy of Hospice & Palliative Medicine is committed to enhancing mentorship opportunities and developing future mentors for our field. By helping identify and recognize those mentors we can ensure the highest level of support for our future leaders!” – Anonymous Donor
