Bowl of Hygeia
History
Established in 1958, the Bowl of Hygeia Award recognizes pharmacists
who possess outstanding records of civic leadership in their communities
and encourages pharmacists to take active roles in the affairs of their
respective communities. The award is presented annually by participating
state pharmacist associations, including those in the District of
Columbia and Puerto Rico. In addition to service through their local,
state and national pharmacy associations, award recipients have devoted
their time, talent and resources to a wide variety of causes and
community service.
The Bowl of Hygeia is the most widely recognized international symbol
for the pharmacy profession and is considered one of the
profession’s most prestigious awards. The Bowl of Hygeia has been
associated with the pharmacy profession since as early as 1796 when the
symbol was used on a coin minted for the Parisian Society of Pharmacy.
The bowl represents a medicinal potion and the snake represents
healing. Healing through medicine is precisely why the pharmacy
profession has adopted the Bowl of Hygeia symbol.
The American Pharmacists Association (APhA) Foundation, APhA and the
National Alliance of State Pharmacy Associations (NASPA) have partnered
to carry on the grand tradition of the Bowl of Hygeia. The awards will
be sponsored by the APhA Foundation and NASPA and awarded by the
participating state pharmacy associations.
