The Square Foundation works with the universities who select students who are in need of support. 


In this way, we can use the collective resources of pharmacists around the world to enhance pharmacist knowledge and skills


Health Care outcomes are optimized when physicians and  pharmacists work in partnership as part of the health care team.

Pharmacists are a key member of the health care team; often the first health care professional that a person sees.


The Square Foundation, supports pharmacy education through scholarships, donation of equipment and e-learning courses (The Square Academy). It encourages pharmacy students to complete their professional training and make a significant contribution to the health of the nation by:

  • Understanding how to use the knowledge and skills to benefit patients

  • Helping develop the judgement essential for a practicing health care professional

  • Access to pharmaceutical knowledge from around the world
