The 2022 Crisafi Challenge enjoyed another successful year as more than $113,000 was raised for student recruitment scholarships at the University of Florida College of Pharmacy. Alumni and friends of the college stepped forward to raise $63,000 in new commitments during the 10-day challenge, and Bob Crisafi, Ph.D., ’56, provided a $50,000 match gift. The successful campaign marks the sixth consecutive year that the scholarship fundraiser has eclipsed the $100,000 mark. Every penny raised will support scholarships for entering Pharm.D. students in fall of 2023.
Dr. Bob created the challenge in 2015 to help the UF College of Pharmacy recruit the best and brightest students from across the nation. In eight years, the Crisafi Challenge has raised more than $800,000 for student recruitment scholarships and helped the college raise its national profile.
