What is TimeBanking?
TimeBanking is a great way of bringing people together to build community: helping others while helping yourself. It is a “Currency of Caring”. It’s a very simple idea.
For every hour you spend doing something for someone in the community, you earn one Time Dollar/Hour. Then you have a Time Dollar to spend on having someone do something for you.
Yet, it also has profound effects. TimeBanks change neighborhoods and whole communities. (see New Economics Foundation report on Ten Years of TimeBanking in the UK, pub Nov., 08). After 20+ years, TimeBanking is a social change movement in 22 countries and six continents.
