Dear Podiatric Supporter,
Thank you for your interest in
participating/sponsoring this year’s Kent State University College of Podiatric
Medicine Clinical Symposium cohosted by the Ohio Podiatric Medical Students Association
& American Academy of Women Podiatrist’s.
We recently spoke about this and I am sending this letter to provide you
with more information on the event.
This year’s Podiatric Clinical
Symposium will be held on Saturday, November 17th at the Embassy
Suites Hotel in Independence, OH. This
year, the symposium will be worth approximately 6.00 continuing medical
education credit hours. In the past, we
have had anywhere from 80 to 100 physicians, residents and students from the
greater Cleveland area in attendance.
It is our goal to make this year’s
Podiatric Clinical Symposium an even greater success than last. With your company’s assistance, we know this
is possible! Your business may choose to
participate in this event by sponsoring a speaker, breakfast, lunch or cocktail
hour. In addition, we have booths and
tables available for display of your product or company information. At the close of the event, we have a raffle
for the symposium attendees, of which all proceeds benefit the Cleveland
Battered Women’s Shelter; we are always looking for items, big or small, to
raffle off!
If you and your company might be
interested in helping with any of this, please let me know! As a symbol of our gratitude, event programs
will be printed out and distributed to everyone in attendance; credit will be
given for all donations made. Any and
all efforts to promote the symposium with your donations, products, and presence
are greatly appreciated!
Thank you so much for your time and consideration
in this matter.
Sincerely,
Saleena Niehaus
KSUCPM Class of 2014
