CPGR 2012 Mentor Program

Over the past few years, CPGR has successfully executed a Fellowship program for individuals who were new to the planned giving community and in 2011 we began a formal Mentor Program. These two programs were very similar so the Board decided to combine the two programs into one program in 2012.

CPGR is in search of 10 protégés for our new program who meet the following criteria and are able to commit to the program timeline:

  1. Protégés must have completed a minimum of three years of general fundraising (planned giving experience is not required, just the desire to learn about it)
  2. Protégés will need to be a member for one of the following committees - Brown Bag, Program, Summer Symposium, Mentor, Membership or Marketing
  3. Protégés will participate in the program from March 2012 – March 2013
  4. Protégés and mentors will have a minimum of eight meetings

CPGR is also in search of mentors who are willing to volunteer their time and talent to our protégés.

Mentor Program Timeline: February 13, 2012 – Application Due; February 17 2012 – Notification to Protégé; and February 23, 2012 – Kick Off Event

For more information and the proper forms to participate go to the Mentor Program section of our website.
