WE'RE ON A MISSION

 Our mission is to give back through philanthropy, mentorship, training, and education.

Fewer than 2% of Orthopedic Surgeons are Black and the field remains 85% white and overwhelmingly male. Demographics have not changed appreciably even as the rest of medicine has become far more diverse. 

We strive to inspire and galvanize diversity in Orthopedic and Spine Surgery.
