Our Mission

At SkillSharingSD, our mission is simple: to democratize knowledge and build community connections in San Diego. We believe that everyone has something valuable to teach and that everyone deserves the opportunity to learn.


Why We Started

Founded in 2018 by a group of San Diego educators and community organizers, we noticed a growing disconnect between generations and neighborhoods. Many seniors had incredible skills but no one to pass them on to, while young professionals and students were eager to learn practical skills but couldn't afford expensive classes.

Our Core Values

Inclusivity

We welcome everyone, regardless of age, background, or skill level. Our community is built on respect and openness.

Collaboration

We believe in the power of working together. Mentorship is a two-way street where both parties learn and grow.

Empowerment

Learning a new skill builds confidence. We aim to empower individuals to take control of their personal and professional growth.
