2025 Funding The Future Physicians 3.0
Greetings from The 15 White Coats® team! We are excited to introduce our groundbreaking "Funding the Future Physicians Initiative", graciously backed by Genentech. Our journey took off from a poignant photograph of 15 black medical students at a significant plantation, symbolizing tenacity and resolve. In 2023, our goal surpassed that iconic moment as we strive to enhance diversity in the field of medicine and inspire upcoming healthcare leaders.
​
​Thanks to Genentech's unwavering support, we were able to amplify our mission, offering essential financial aid and guidance for minority students with aspirations in the medical realm. Our steadfast belief is that diversity refines healthcare. With Genentech's collaboration, we're transforming this belief into tangible outcomes. Be part of our enduring mission to transcend obstacles and uplift future medical practitioners.
​About the Initiative:
This 6-month, virtual cohort program, conceived byThe 15 White Coats®, offers a holistic approach supporting MCAT preparation, mentorship, personal statement crafting, interview preparedness, culturally-attuned mental conditioning, and financial aid for premed students from HBCU, Hispanic-serving, and Indigenous-serving institutions. Each participant receives aid worth over $6,000. With the third cohort set to commence in April 2025, our ongoing engagement with U.S. medical schools to amplify the visibility and readiness of our initiative's students continues.
