Apply for a WCBD Event Grant.

By sharing your stories and hosting events, black medical students can create a community of support among medical students, physicians, and pre-meds that spans the miles and generations between medical careers.

You can also help to educate others whose experiences are different than yours, and engender a more inclusive, tolerant, and cooperative medical community. 

WCBD will sponsor events (including community service projects) hosted by two or more medical students at any medical school in the country.

#WhyBlackDocs

Why do we need more black physicians in the medical field? Only 5% of all physicians are of African-American descent, while the country's population is composed 13.2% African-Americans. The AAMC has shown over many years that not only are African-American physicians more likely to work in underserved communities, increasing typically maligned populations' access to healthcare.
