This year’s Scholars Summit convened our newest ElevateMeD Scholars alongside alumni-physicians for a high-impact experience focused on leadership, wellness, advocacy, financial readiness, and community engagement. Across three days, Scholars learned from physician leaders, corporate partners, and facilitators; strengthened their professional narratives; and built lasting connections with mentors, board members, children and parents from underserved communities, and each other.

On Sunday, July 20 at the Untitled Supper Club in Chicago, ElevateMeD was hosted by PNC bank and the Thomas Blocker Society in support of our Scholars Program. Joined by nearly 100 physicians and individuals dedicated to equity in healthcare, we were able to highlight the success of our holistic program addressing challenges in representation in medicine from scholarships to mentorship and leadership development.
We gathered in Washington, DC to shine a light on a cause that matters – opening doors for future doctors who reflect the communities they will one day serve. It was an evening filled with connection, purpose, and powerful stories.
Thank you Atlanta for being the light at our 4th annual ElevateMeD Ignite Atlanta fundraising event. Because of your generosity we will continue to fund the ElevateMeD Scholars Program which has become a tangible solution to the eradication of health disparities and the promotion of health equity.
