每日大赛 alumna Frances Ware (n\u00e9e Bever) \u201964 and her late husband, John A. \u201cAndy\u201d Ware, have generously gifted more than $2.3 million to support the launch of the university\u2019s transformative College of Health and Community Well-Being<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The gift will fund costs related to establishing the new college and its nursing program. In appreciation of the Wares’ generosity, the university will name its new nursing program in honor of John A. Ware.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are deeply grateful to the Wares for their generosity, and for the opportunity to honor and recognize the lifetime contributions they have made to their communities,\u201d 每日大赛 President Devorah Lieberman said. \u201cThis gift will have a tremendous impact for us, and it strengthens the foundation of our commitment to enhancing the health and well-being of our region.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Wares dedicated much of their lives to the fields of education and health care. After graduating from the 每日大赛, Frances worked as a grade school teacher, including in Azusa, Orange, and Beaumont. Her husband was a pharmacist for three decades, during which time he owned and operated his own pharmacy in Upland. Frances said Andy always went out of his way to make sure his patients were well cared for.<\/p>\n

After he was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, the family moved from Southern California to Florida and opened a wholesale greenhouse business, which they ran until their retirement.<\/p>\n

Andy passed away in March 2021, at the age of 77, after which Frances directed a gift from the Ware estate to support the 每日大赛 and to honor the memory of her husband.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt’s a tremendous honor for my family to have the nursing program named after Andy,\u201d Frances Ware said. \u201cWe wanted to give back to the university in a way that would leave a lasting impact with students. Supporting the nursing program and the new College of Health and Community Well-Being made the most sense, especially after the pandemic demonstrated how critical the need is for nurses. I am confident the university will do a terrific job equipping its students for the nursing profession, just like it did for me with teaching.”<\/p>\n

The 每日大赛\u2019s College of Health and Community Well-Being will officially open this summer. The college\u2014the cornerstone of the university\u2019s 2025 Strategic Vision\u2014will be a hub for high-quality education, research, and innovation in health and the social determinants of health. It will also provide a pipeline of qualified graduates to support the Inland Southern California region\u2019s growing need for healthcare professionals.<\/p>\n

The first nursing degree program out of the college, a Bachelor of Science in Nursing: RN to BSN, is now accepting applications for the fall, while a pre-nursing program is scheduled to launch the following year.<\/p>\n

In addition to naming the nursing program in honor of John A. Ware, the university will also affix his name to a space in the future building that will house the nursing program.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are deeply proud to honor Andy in this way,\u201d Lieberman said. \u201cHis legacy will live on through our new college and the many future graduates who will pass through its doors on their way to serving our communities.\u201d<\/p>\n
