[Resource] Wisdom on Demand: Just Ask Grandpa

resource image

How it works


  1. Ask a Question: Type in what you need help with
  2. Match a Grandpa: Match with a Grandpa in your area that has that skill-set
  3. Set up a Time: Set up a day and time that works for both your schedules


The House Rules

  1. Completely Free: no cash changes hands here. The only payment required is a hot cup of tea or coffee for your mentor once the job is done
  2. You Do the Work: Grandpa is here to guide, instruct, and supervise. But you hold the tools. That's the only way the knowledge sticks.
  3. Learn for Life: Our goal isn't just a quick fix. It's to pass down skills that you'll carry forever (and maybe pass down yourself one day).
