Time Banks USA

Time Banks USA is a community-based program where individuals exchange services based on the time spent rather than money. Participants earn hours for their contributions—like tutoring, gardening, or home repairs—and then use those hours to receive services from others. It promotes reciprocity, community building, and valuing everyone's skills equally. The system fosters mutual support, reduces reliance on cash, and emphasizes that everyone’s time is valuable, regardless of the service provided.
