About the Student Pharmacist Scholarship Program
During the year 2000, the APhA Auxiliary decided to cease operations and transfer their assets to the APhA Foundation. Previously, the Auxiliary had conducted the Irene Parks Student Loan Fund that provided $500 loans to pharmacy students. Wishing to maintain a focus on students, the Auxiliary and Foundation reached an agreement to convert the loan program into a student scholarship fund that would be titled the APhA Auxiliary/APhA Foundation Student Pharmacist Scholarship Program.

Today, the APhA Auxiliary/APhA Foundation Student Pharmacist Scholarship Program recognizes full-time pharmacy students who help shape the future of their profession by maintaining active involvement in their school's APhA-ASP Chapter. In 2006, nine scholarships in the amount of $1,000 were awarded.
