ConnectAZ.org is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping high school students connect with industry professionals in their field of interest (more specifically, fields of math, science, engineering, and technology). By connecting with these industry leaders, students will be able to enhance their knowledge of the industry they hope to some day have a career in. Connect AZ’s mission is to connect high school students with mentors who are currently working in their field of interest (more specifically, fields of math, science, engineering, and technology) in hopes to establish a long term relationship and network of support.
