The San Diego-Porto Friendship Society is a nonprofit organization dedicated to fostering cultural and educational exchanges between San Diego, California, and Porto, Portugal’s second-largest city and the capital of the Porto District in northwest Portugal.
The “Friendship City” relationship was established in May of 2023 as these two cities shared several outstanding affinities, with great opportunity for joint development.
We seek to expand cultural awareness, develop new business opportunities in multiple fields, create student interactions, and enhance university partnerships. Such a relationship is already supported by the sizable Portuguese and Luso-American community in San Diego, and our goal is to expand on this interest and support both in the community and outside of it.
