The 15 White Coats®, INC

The mission of The 15 White Coats is to promote cultural imagery in learning spaces, provide economic support to minorities aspiring to be physicians, and to promote culturally-appropriate literature access in learning spaces.

The 15 White Coats is transforming healthcare by empowering underrepresented students through scholarships, mentorship, and resources.

The Funding The Future Physicians Program provides MCAT prep, application support, and mentorship to aspiring doctors from HBCUs, HSIs, and tribal schools. In Phase 1, scholars saw an average MCAT score increase of nearly 10 points, with a 72% success rate in advancing to Phase 2, positioning them for medical school success.

The Resilient Readers Book Club promotes literacy by distributing diverse books to underserved classrooms. The program now includes the Virtual Readers Club, connecting healthcare professionals with learning centers nationwide to read aloud, fostering both literacy and career inspiration.

The HBCU Tethered Tour inspires pre-med students and secondary school learners to pursue STEM at neighboring HBCUs. By providing cultural posters and book boxes, it creates lasting impact. As funding allows, the program is expanding into an ongoing university tour to reach even more students.

Through education, mentorship, and representation, The 15 White Coats is shaping the future of medicine-one st
