Professional Partnership Benefits
The Gift Of
MENTORSHIP
The Alliance is extremely grateful to the following contributors. With their generous support, we are able to fund the Alliance mentorship which is inspiring a number of professionals in our community.
Work life in the pandemic era has created new challenges for professionals in the donation and transplantation community, including the stress of working closely with families who are grieving in isolation, fatigue, and labor shortages. Those challenges have made participation in a mentorship program more important and valuable than ever for both mentees and mentors. Your contributions can directly support our efforts toward mentorship and professional development across the donation and transplantation professional community.
Thank You!
The Alliance acknowledges and would like to express appreciation publicly to all our financial supporters who have invested in the present and future growth of the Alliance Mentorship Program. Their commitment to inspiring success and powering leaders positively impacts our field of practice.

About The Alliance Mentorship Program
The Alliance Mentorship Program engages experienced donation and transplantation professionals to connect with individuals who are new to their transplant career or role, and support them as they immerse themselves in this lifesaving community. The goal of this program is to establish a network of peer support to inspire, encourage and pave the way to career success and longevity in a high-stakes career field. Nearly 500 people have participated in the Alliance’s cost-free mentorship program since it began in 2017. While offered as a cost-free program, the administrative cost of establishing a mentorship connection is approximately $150. Your contributions directly support the growth and development of this valuable program.
“It can be extremely helpful to connect with others who know first-hand what you’re going through and can provide additional educational resources to navigate these challenges and build resiliency during this challenging time. People who enroll in the Mentorship program will benefit from training that’s relevant to the current climate of the donation and transplantation field.”
DEANNA FENTON – Program Manager, The Alliance
The Alliance brings all the perspectives of people who have deep experience and knowledge, who are willing to share and willing to listen and work to get things better. And that’s the whole point, to make it work better, get more patients transplanted, take better care of our donor families, and immerse our field with new ideas.
