World-Class GivinGThe Mading Society was established in 1997 by the University of Houston College of Pharmacy to recognize individual and corporate donors committed to advancing clinical and research excellence in the Greater Houston Region, across the nation and around the globe.

leGaCy of CareThe Mading Society was named in memory of Cora and Webb Mading, the first major benefactors of the college. Reagan Webb Mading was born in East Texas in 1887. He was a registered pharmacist and owned 12 drugstores, the largest independent drugstore chain in Houston at the time. Upon his death in 1953, the Mading estate bequeathed $20,000 to the fledgling UH College of Pharmacy. He was also known for his love of children and insisted that they be treated as courteously as any adult customer. In 1959, Houston’s newest grade school was named in his honor: Mading Elementary School.

His self-made success, legendary kindness and commitment to higher education inspired the Mading society.
