What is a Mentor? 
Mentors can be found in many settings. Mentors may guide another individual in a process or culture. Mentors uphold standards and are a pivotal force for someone in the context of this role. Mentors may be renown on a large scale or simply an individual we respect in the context of everyday life. But regardless of the setting, mentors are always someone another person looks up to and desires to emulate in some way.
Thus the premise that became a foundation for Discoveries Unlimited. Discoveries Unlimited is dedicated to quality mentors who have passion for Science, Technology, Engineering, and/or Math (referred to as STEM) occupations. These mentors offer young women career information about STEM occupations both by engaging in experiences and by offering knowledge and information about these industries.
As bonds begin to form between trained mentors and their mentees trust quickly follows. With trust comes the opening of the mind and the realization of possibilities. Possibilities lead to realistic planning and futures that are enriched by a belief in oneself. Mentors come in all types, but those who have stepped into this role with Discoveries Unlimited are not cause oriented; rather have made the commitment to give young women a current belief in the possibilities and a consideration for STEM careers in the future.
