School of Pharmacy

For more than a century, WVU has shaped the future of pharmacy in West Virginia and beyond. As the State’s first and oldest school of pharmacy, we have educated thousands of pharmacists and scientists who share a common calling: improving patient-centered care and serving their communities with integrity and compassion.

Today, our mission remains as vital as ever. We prepare the next generation of pharmacy leaders, advance innovative research, and strengthen pharmacy practice to improve health outcomes for West Virginians and people around the world.

LET’S GO for our students, our profession, and our State. Every gift—no matter the size—makes a meaningful difference by investing in people, programs, and possibilities that shape the future of pharmacy.

You may direct your gift to any area that is meaningful to you, but the following priority funds have an especially powerful impact:

Fund for Pharmacy (2U037)

Gifts to the Fund for Pharmacy provide critical, flexible support that strengthens the School in every dimension—supporting faculty excellence, student professional development, research opportunities, advocacy for the profession, and service to communities across West Virginia.

School of Pharmacy Annual Scholarship (2S145)

Your support of the Annual Scholarship Fund helps talented future pharmacists and scientists pursue a WVU education with less financial burden. These scholarships allow students to focus on learning, leadership, and service—rather than debt—so they can give back to the communities that need them most.

School of Pharmacy White Coat Program (2W301)

Supporting the White Coat Program sustains a meaningful rite of passage for incoming pharmacy students. This tradition marks the beginning of their professional journey and symbolizes their commitment to ethical practice, patient care, and lifelong service.

Together, we can honor the legacy of those who came before us while investing in the pharmacists and scientists who will define the future of healthcare. Your generosity ensures that the WVU School of Pharmacy continues to serve, lead, and make a difference for generations to come.
