donor wall

Benefactor honor plaque

A donor wall is a permanent display in a building—typically a museum, hospital, theater, or university—recognizing people and organizations who contributed financially to a project or institution.

Names are often arranged by giving level, with larger donors featured more prominently: Her family's name appears on the donor wall in the hospital lobby.

The wall itself may be architectural, artistic, or simply a mounted plaque.
