Troy Gahm, 1992 Raabe College of Pharmacy alumnus, was recently awarded the Bowl of Hygenia Award by The Ohio Pharmacists Association.

This award is presented annually to a pharmacist who has contributed to the progress of their community within the State of Ohio.

An entrepreneur in the Lucasville community, Gahm founded  Gahm's Pharmacy and Market.

Gahm is also a leadership volunteer and supporter of Ohio Northern University. He has been a frequent guest lecturer and founded the The Gahm Family Endowed Scholarship at Ohio Northern to support pharmacy students from the Lucasville and surrounding communities. 

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 their communities.

The award is presented annually by participating state pharmacy 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 devote their time, talent, and resources to a wide variety of causes and community service.
