Moms as Mentors is a non-profit organization that provides mothers the tools, time, and space they need to be mentors in their daughters' daily lives, ultimately helping their girls to grow into confident and influential women. Our hallmark mother-daughter programs offer invaluable mom and daughter bonding time, fun, interactive games/challenges that promote teamwork and communication and tips for moms on topics like how to be confident role models. Moms as Mentors first launched in 2007 with a focus on health, wellness, self-esteem, and leadership for mothers and daughters. In 2014 we relaunched as the non-profit, "The Moms as Mentors Project" and began building programming that centers around fields where women continue to remain underrepresented, especially in key positions of leadership, such as STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) and business.
