This week, we join the nationwide celebration of National Pharmacy Week! This is a time to recognize the invaluable contributions pharmacists and pharmacy technicians make to patient care in hospitals, outpatient clinics, and communities across the country.

We’re deeply grateful for the pharmacists who serve on our staff, volunteer in our programs, and partner with us statewide. Their expertise, compassion, and dedication ensure that thousands of uninsured neighbors can access the life-saving medications they need.

We're also proud to celebrate not only our pharmacy professionals, but also the incredible teams that support our mission as a nonprofit pharmacy. Our social work and partner relations teams help enroll new patients. Our OTC and Mobile Free Pharmacy teams bring over-the-counter medicine directly to those in need. And our development team raises the critical funds that make it all possible.

Together, these passionate individuals help us fulfill our mission to dispense hope across North Carolina.
