Mission

To promote and further the education of future pharmacy professionals in the state of Missouri and to help the University of Missouri-Kansas City School of Pharmacy achieve its mission by garnering and extending support for its students, faculty and staff.

History

In 1951 a group of people, including J. Leo McMahon, Mathew “Bill” Wilson and others, were concerned that the School of Pharmacy needed financial support to develop into a state-of-the-art educational institution. With the Century Club, they started the Pharmacy Foundation.

The Board of Directors supports the programs of the University of Missouri-Kansas City School of Pharmacy, contributes to the fulfillment of the foundation’s mission and carries out the responsibilities of the office of the director.
