Thank you for considering a tax-deductible donation to Clear Direction Mentoring. Your support helps us create incredible opportunities to mentor and empower high school and college students who come from communities that have been historically marginalized and excluded from science, technology, engineering, math, and medicine (STEMM) fields. We are looking to transition from a fully volunteer organization to a scalable non-profit that can initiate new chapters and coordinate our efforts at a larger scale.

Your support goes towards:

Transportation and materials

Funding student internships

Expanding our programming

CDM empowers students by providing:


1-on-1 long-term mentoring that pairs high school students (“Fellows”) with trained, socially conscious PhD-level mentors for academic, socio-emotional, and professional support immersive experiences


STEMM deep-dives and skill-building workshops within a community of passionate Fellows and scientists (monthly “Academies”)


Paid STEMM internships that are coordinated for Fellows


Exposure and networking with partner institutions to jumpstart student careers as STEMM professionals
