Who We Are

ElevateMeD is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization led by a mission-driven team and governed by a dedicated  Board of Directors. Founded on the belief that medicine should mirror and respond to the needs of the communities it serves, we recognize that the rising cost of medical education has placed significant financial strain on many talented students, often shaping or limiting their career paths. The ElevateMeD Scholars Program provides meaningful financial support, mentorship, leadership training, and financial management education to help ensure that tomorrow’s physicians are equipped to lead with excellence, empathy, and a spirit of service. ElevateMeD Scholars will become the next generation of physician leaders, well poised to continue the cycle of philanthropy and dedication to community.

Our Focus

ElevateMeD addresses the barriers that prevent talented students from pursuing and thriving in medicine. By providing scholarships, mentorship, and professional development, we help emerging physicians navigate medical school and enter the workforce prepared to lead. ElevateMeD connects Scholars with mentors and organizations who share our commitment to a healthcare system that reflects and effectively serves all communities.

ElevateMeD is poised to make significant strides in key areas impacting medical students. We are a vehicle for substantive lasting change. We exist because of the profound struggle presented by the staggering costs of medical education.

Launched in 2020, the ElevateMeD Scholars Program is a multifaceted program designed to develop the next generation of physician leaders.

Each Scholar will be awarded a tuition-based scholarship as a medical student enrolled in full-time at an accredited medical school. In addition to scholarship support, Scholars receive physician mentorship, leadership development opportunities, financial literacy, and access to ElevateMeD network support.
