William Pepper Society
If you give more than $1,000, you have the opportunity to join the William Pepper Society.
Dr. William Pepper, Jr., founded the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania in 1874. HUP was the first teaching hospital in the United States. He later went on to become the Provost of the University of Pennsylvania and remained a prominent figure in the hospital, in the Perelman School of Medicine and in Philadelphia for years to come.
John Morgan Society
If you give for three consecutive years, you have the opportunity to join the John Morgan Society.
Dr. John Morgan (1735-1789) was a member of the first graduating class of the College of Philadelphia (now the University of Pennsylvania). Upon completing his medical training in Europe, he appealed to the trustees of the college to establish our nation's first medical school, whose mission was to improve the standards of medical training in America. His petition was successful, and the school of medicine was established in 1765 with Dr. Morgan as Chair of Theory and Practice of Physic, the first medical professorship in the country.
