MISSION
We believe in a generous internet. We want to live in a world where every person belongs to a trusted, supportive community, where people make a difference by asking for what they need and giving what they can. We reject fear, pessimism, and isolation. We value courage, collaboration, and kindness.
STORY
The internet brought us together so we could make the internet a better place.
We serve cities, industries, farmers, affinity communities, membership organizations, and colleges and universities.
Switchboard was founded by Mara Zepeda and Sean Lerner. They met over Twitter in 2012 and built the first Switchboard for their alma mater, Reed College. They wanted to create an intuitive ad-free platform that prioritized building community. You can read the entire story here.
