    SNPhA chapters of the University of Maryland Eastern Shore, University of Maryland-Baltimore, Notre Dame of Maryland University, and Howard schools of pharmacy have launched a T-Shirt fundraiser to benefit the University of Puerto Rico School of Pharmacy (UPR SOP). 

    As many of you are aware, Hurricane Maria, a Category 5 hurricane, caused catastrophic damage and a major humanitarian crisis in Puerto Rico.  As a result of the destruction, the UPR SOP has been forced to send their students to the US mainland to complete their APPE rotations. 

    Please consider buying a t-shirt, which features the 2017 Top 200 drugs and the flag of Puerto Rico, or donating on our fundraising page: 

    https://www.customink.com/fundraising/snphaforuprsop

    100% of the proceeds from your purchase will be donated to the UPR SOP to benefit student pharmacists affected by Hurricane Maria.  The fundraiser will be open until November 1, 2017.  Your t-shirt will ship directly to your home around November 14, 2017.  SNPhA’s goal is to sell 100 t-shirts, so please pass this message along to your co-workers, preceptors, and pharmacy friends!

    A community health fair, hosted by the St. Luke United Methodist Church in Sykesville, MD, took place on Saturday, March 12th. MPhS pharmacists and SNPhA pharmacy students from Howard University and the University of Maryland performed medication regimen reviews and counseled patients on proper use of their medications and compliance. We worked alongside a group of nurses, who provided blood pressure screenings, and education on breast health. The event was a great opportunity for community members to receive their blood pressure reading, and much needed health information. Thank you to everyone who helped make this event a success!
