Established in 1980 to support the profession of pharmacy in Florida in the areas of research, education and student recognition. The Foundation is a non-profit organization that is registered with the state of Florida and all contributions to the Foundation are therefore tax deductible. Over the years the Foundation has contributed to everything from hurricane relief to textbook scholarships. Since inception the Foundation has evolved and developed a focus on pharmacy student support and small demonstration grants. With the increased need for pharmacists, we feel that support of the student pharmacist in financial recognition and professional guidance is a primary benefit to public health.
