Today, we highlight an incredible opportunity for all our student pharmacists, residents, and fellows! The YFP (Your Financial Pharmacist) Gives scholarships are LIVE and accepting applications for 2026!

YFP Gives has many incredible board members, but I can speak personally about Tim Ulbrich, PharmD, Co-Founder & CEO, Your Financial Pharmacist. I first met Tim when I was a fellow in the Rutgers Pharmaceutical Industry Fellowship Program 5 years ago. I had arranged for Tim to give a talk to the entire cohort of fellows regarding financial literacy and planning. Tim was an incredible speaker, and he genuinely wants the best for his clients. I highly recommend working with him!

Being the good guy that he is, Tim and YFP Gives are offering 10 scholarships for students this year! See below for details.
