Almost 48 people from the ASCE Orange County and WTS Orange County Mentoring Programs (mentors, mentees, and committee members) came together for a Fall Mentorship Mixer at Hangar 24 in Irvine on Tuesday, November 18th.

The energy was great as mentees finally got to meet their mentors face‑to‑face. It gave everyone a chance to share ideas, talk about goals, and start building a plan for the next couple of months in the mentorship program. Attendees also got to meet other professionals in the engineering field and enjoyed relaxed conversations over appetizers and drinks.
ASCE OC also organized a canned food drive during the mixer to support local food pantries affected by the recent government shutdown and SNAP program challenges. A big thank‑you to ASCE OC and WTS OC for hosting this event and helping kick off the 2025–2026 Mentorship Program with a strong start.
