Student Pharmacist Traveling to National Meeting

I have an amazing opportunity to travel to Los Angeles, CA for the Annual Meeting & Exposition of the American Pharmacist Association (APhA). At our college of pharmacy, we have a student chapter of this national organization of which I am currently President-elect. I would LOVE to be able to attend this annual meeting (and am expected to) for not only leadership training but also a chance to further my future by making networking connections that will follow me through my career.

Unfortunately, being a full time pharmacy student, I have extremely limited funds - trying to make it through school on loans. Registration alone is $250 for members of the Academy of Student Pharmacists. I also live on the east coast and have never had many chances to travel. My estimated expenses include registration, airfare, and hotel stay. I plan to fund any additional expenses.

ANY amount you could spare will help relieve the financial stress of trying to attend the meeting! I cannot thank you enough for your consideration!
