The picture above was taken at a Chili Cook Off that the College of Pharmacy put on in order to raise money for the Charitable Pharmacy of Central Ohio. I volunteered at the event in order to meet more people within the field of pharmacy and get involved with the College of Pharmacy. The Charitable Pharmacy of Central Ohio is a pharmacy that offers medication, health screening, medication counseling, and much more for families that are uninsured or low income that often times cannot afford the heavy bills that come with going to a physician or other medical professional.
This experience was fun because it not only allowed to try amazing chili but also gave me the opportunity to help a great causes that shows people that pharmacy is more than just dispensers of drugs. Brutus even made an appearance to show his support for the great work that the Charitable Pharmacy does. It was cool to see the community come together to raise money for a cause that allowed everyone to have an opportunity to receive a level of health care that they need and are entitled to.
