Donating to the Research Institute’s (RI’s) Frontiers Fund supports our efforts in developing clinical pharmacy researchers, advancing clinical pharmacy research, and positioning the RI’s programs to ensure future success. In 2008, ACCP and the RI made a bold decision to support the formation of the ACCP Practice-Based Research Network (PBRN). This unique network provides ACCP members the opportunity to actively participate in collaborative practice-based research. In 2013, the PBRN reached a stage where we began pursuing multiple projects, securing external research funding, and actively soliciting new proposals. However, without continued member support to fund the infrastructure of the network, we will be unable to realize the PBRN’s full potential. Your financial support is needed now more than ever!

Making a donation to the Frontiers Fund is remarkably easy: (1) donate online (www.accpri.org/give) any time using a debit or credit card or (2) call us at (913) 492-3311 and speak to an ACCP customer service staff member to contribute by telephone. In addition, everyone who donates $100 or more will receive an 8-GB flash drive as a token of thanks for supporting the Frontiers Fund, while supplies last. Even though you may have invested in the Frontiers Fund last year, it’s important to do so again. We hope you will make this an ongoing contribution by remembering the RI in your annual giving.

We have not yet reached this year’s Frontiers Fund goals of increasing the percentage of ACCP members who donate by 50% or securing a total of $100,000 in individual contributions. With your help, however, these goals are still attainable. Please join us in helping to move our profession forward; your contribution to the Frontiers Fund really does make a difference.
