Board of Directors

Wayne and Jean Shafer, Founders

Under the leadership of founder and CEO Wayne Shafer, Contract Pharmacy Services has been serving the pharmaceutical needs of institutional facilities for over forty years. Founded as Wayne Pharmacy in 1976 in Hatboro, PA, Wayne’s company has evolved from a local retail pharmacy chain into a highly specialized pharmacy providing services to correctional facilities nationwide, long-term care facilities throughout the Delaware Valley, and behavioral health organizations in Pennsylvania and New Jersey.

Since their retirement, Wayne and his wife, Jean, are using the skills and business acumen developed at Contract Pharmacy Services to teach missionaries on the field to operate a successful business. As food insecurity is amazingly complex in the Eswatini, the creation of The Stewardship Foundation (TSF) seeks to be a part of this solution by investing in hydroponic infrastructure in Sub-Saharan Africa.

Karen Hess, Director of Strategic Partnerships

With a wealth of experience working with non-profit organizations, Karen is responsible for expanding community relations and informing partners of strategic business goals. She works closely with other executives to define short- and long-term policies and strategies and connects with internal and external stakeholders to expand on these company visions.
