IPSF Trivia Night Raised over $1250!

On October 18th, IPSF and Bridges to Health hosted a trivia night at the Pied Piper Ale House in Ravenna, raising over $1250 to benefit Pharmabridge. The Pharmabridge program works to promote pharmacy services in developing and transitional countries.

Thanks to the Pied Piper Ale House for donating beverage proceeds and prizes, and thanks to the local businesses and our UWSOP professional student organizations that also donated prizes for the event! Way to go IPSF and Bridges to Health!

Woo IPSF!

To clarify, IPSF organized this event with Pied Piper Ale House. Bridges to Health was generous enough to match up to $500 of proceeds earned.

Pharmabridge will assist IPSF in choosing appropriate textbooks to send to a pharmacy school in Uganda to promote pharmacy education overseas.
