SNPhA's 45th Birthday

Happy New Years  

The Student National Pharmaceutical Association just recently celebrated its 45th birthday. Our chapter honored this special occasion by holding the Bissonnet Health Fair. Our Diabetes, Operation Immunization, Mental Health, and Community Outreach initiatives all took part in this event and blood glucose tests were provided during the event. Overall, the event was a blast as our chapter got to celebrate SNPhA's 45th through service!
