1864 Society
Named in honor of the founding of University of Health Sciences and Pharmacy in St. Louis, the 1864 Society recognizes supporters who have made a major commitment to the University. Such giving plans might be made through a will or trust, a life-income plan such as a charitable gift annuity, designating UHSP as the beneficiary of a life insurance or retirement plan or other special planned gifts.
Members of the 1864 Society build on the past by making a mark on our future. They are a distinguished part of the UHSP community, demonstrating an ongoing commitment to academic excellence and making a difference in the life of every student.
Women’s Giving Society
The Women’s Giving Society(WGS) is a group of alumnae, pharmacy professionals and community leaders invested in making an impact on the lives of students at UHSP. By joining resources, members contribute to the academic and personal well-being of students by supporting programs that provide opportunities to enhance their professional and personal skills.
Programs supported by the society have included: student research; the student emergency fund; and professional development opportunities like conferences, international rotations and career development programs.
Join us in supporting the next generation of health care leaders. All gifts are greatly appreciated, and dollars raised each calendar year will support students during the following academic year. Those who donate $1,000+ during the calendar year are considered voting members and are invited to meet each January to determine how the funds raised from the previous year will be used.
