Our INITIATIVES

BHC 40 Under 40 Awards

The Black Health Connect 40 Under 40 Awards honor the next generation of leaders, innovators, and changemakers transforming healthcare. This recognition celebrates young professionals under 40 who are advancing health equity, breaking barriers, and making a lasting impact in their fields.

As part of BHC Foundation’s initiatives, 40 Under 40 extends beyond recognition—it fosters community, mentorship, leadership development, and community engagement, giving honorees the resources and network to continue shaping the future of healthcare.

Through this program, we spotlight rising leaders from across the healthcare ecosystem—from medicine and public health to policy, entrepreneurship, and research—creating opportunities for collaboration, visibility, and impact.

Join us in celebrating and investing in the future of healthcare leadership..

BHC COMMUNITY HEALTH FAIR

Launched in 2023, our BHC Community Health Fairs provide vital health screenings, education, and resources to underserved communities. In just two years, we’ve expanded our reach significantly:

  • December 2023 – Ghana: Served 400 individuals with essential healthcare services.

  • June 2024 – Washington, DC: Provided 200 residents in Southeast DC with screenings and wellness resources.

  • December 2024 – Ghana: Expanded to serve over 3,000 individuals, delivering critical healthcare support.

By bridging healthcare gaps and bringing resources directly to the community, we are committed to improving access and empowering individuals to take control of their health.

BHC Licensing Scholarships (Launching MAY 2025)

The path to becoming a licensed healthcare professional is costly, and financial barriers often prevent talented graduates from taking the next step in their careers. Our BHC Licensing Scholarships provide direct financial assistance to help recent graduates cover the cost of their licensing exams, ensuring that more qualified professionals can enter the field without unnecessary delays.

By investing in the next generation, we’re not just supporting individuals—we’re strengthening the entire healthcare ecosystem..
