On it!
I'm seconding the part about sharing your knowledge. I'd love to do this but don't know where to start.
The local community center is a good place to start. Offer to teach others what you know through the rec department where you live. They can help you find a suitable location and how to contact the community and help you advertise. They are always open to new programs starting up and would welcome you contacting them to speak about it.
Local community and youth groups as well. Offer to speak about your knowledge to them and what they can do themselves. Offer to set up clinics at community centers and drop ins where you can help people directly with any problems or questions they may have and make a contact for yourself so you can stay in touch. Ask young people you meet who are excited about learning to help teach older members of the community.
Impact your community and it will impact the entire country.
Tysm for bringing up this idea. Community building is so important and having a guild of people that can teach and repair things will be most beneficial. Building parallel power in our communities reduces our dependance on making other people rich and builds richness in community where it belongs.
