MAKE A DIFFERENCE TODAY
Your investment in Saint Joseph’s is an investment in the future of our students. There is no greater affirmation of your support than their success.
Your Gifts at Work
Edgardo Mercadante, BS '79, H '17, experienced the transformative power of the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy (now a part of Saint Joseph's University) firsthand; now he’s paying it forward.
Fully funded by philanthropy, the Museum offers a fresh, vibrant, accessible space for art and education.
With the help of a $150,000 gift from Song Li, PhD, the founder and CEO of Exton-based Frontage Laboratories, more students will get valuable training in the lab early in their time at St. Joe’s — training that can be critical to building a career in the pharmaceutical industry.
