Who We Are

Seaside Toolbox Academy is an independent 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded on the belief that skilled trades change lives and strengthen communities. Created by the owners of Seaside Plumbing and led by local community partners, educators, and trades professionals, we are a mission-driven organization committed to expanding access to hands-on career exploration and trade education across the Lower Eastern Shore. Our team is passionate about empowering students, supporting adult learners, and building pathways that connect talent to opportunity. We work collaboratively with schools, employers, and community organizations to ensure that every person—regardless of background—can discover a meaningful future in the trades.

What We Do

Seaside Toolbox Academy is a workforce-development nonprofit dedicated to inspiring, training, and equipping the next generation of skilled trades professionals across the Lower Eastern Shore. We provide hands-on learning experiences for youth and adults, introduce thousands of students to real-world trade careers, and partner with schools, community organizations, and employers to close the local skilled-worker gap. Through mobile learning labs, classroom demonstrations, career exploration programs, and future apprenticeship pathways, we’re building a stronger, more resilient workforce for Wicomico, Worcester, Somerset, and Sussex counties. Our goal is simple: create opportunity, spark confidence, and open doors to meaningful, high-demand careers in the trades.
