We are preparing the next generation of diverse physicians!
The 15 White Coats is determined to reinforce positive imagery in learning spaces worldwide. Our iconic photos are used as an avenue to inspire the next generation of diverse doctors, lawyers, dentists, veterinarians, etc.
Our mission is to develop scholarships, facilitate access to culturally relevant literature, and inspire and mentor the youth of tomorrow. Every dollar donated to us is used to further our mission.
The Funding the Future Physicians Initiative is a robust, comprehensive program aimed at diversifying medicine. It is funded by Genentech and spearheaded by The 15 White Coats. The program seeks to prepare underrepresented minority students from HBCUs, Hispanic-Serving Institutions, and Indigenous-serving Institutions for medical school and equip them with the tools, resources, and mentorship needed to succeed in healthcare.
This 6-month, virtual cohort program, conceived by The 15 White Coats, offers a holistic approach supporting MCAT preparation, mentorship, personal statement crafting, interview preparedness, culturally-attuned mental conditioning, and financial aid for 50 students from HBCU, Hispanic-serving, and Indigenous-serving institutions. Each participant receives aid worth over $5,000. Set to commence in November 2023, we're liaising with U.S. medical schools to amplify the visibility and readiness of our initiative's students.
