Pfizer Support for Medical, Scientific and Patient Organizations: US Medical, Scientific, Patient and Civic Organization Grants, Charitable Contributions & Other Funding Requests

Pfizer partners with many medical, scientific, patient and civic organizations to support their programs and activities, such as health education and scientific research. This support takes many forms, including grants and charitable contributions for efforts that strengthen communities, and work toward a healthier world. Working with these organizations allows Pfizer to better understand the needs of the patients who take our medicines, while helping these medical, scientific and patient organizations inform and address the needs of those they serve.

Pfizer is committed to the principle of transparency — the disclosure of activities reflecting participation in efforts of public interest. These include such areas as funding for educational activities, the status of Pfizer's US pharmaceutical post marketing commitments, Pfizer's pipeline of experimental medicines, the registration and reporting of results of clinical trials, and political contributions in the US. Here, we report grants and charitable contributions made by Pfizer to medical, scientific and patient organizations based in the US, including Puerto Rico. Pfizer began disclosing this information in 2008. In 2009, Pfizer has begun disclosing funding requests for healthcare related support to civic organizations.

The information reported here includes grants to support independent medical education, support for fellowship, scholarship, visiting professorship programs, grants to patient organizations, medical and scientific associations, and academic or other medical centers, charitable contributions, and healthcare related support to civic organizations.

For descriptions of types of support, please visit our descriptions section.

In addition, funding activities made by the Pfizer Foundation are aggregated and reported in an annual IRS 990 filing. This information is available on the website www.foundationcenter.org.

Pfizer US medical, scientific and patient education grants, charitable contributions and other healthcare related funding requests are updated on a quarterly basis. Support provided beginning in 2008 is listed here:
