Help open the door to increased representation of Indigenous health care professionals and their communities with a gift to the Diane Hales Award in Pharmaceutical Sciences for Indigenous Students.

It is with Diane Hales BSc(Pharm)’52’s generous gift-in-will that UBC Pharm Sci established this principal award in 2021.  It is the first award at the Faculty to support First Nations, Inuit and Métis undergraduate students.

There is an ever-growing need for aspiring Indigenous leaders in pharmacy and the pharmaceutical sciences in advancing the health of their communities and beyond. Give today in support of Indigenous undergraduate students so they can help meet this demand.
