TimeBanking

TimeBanking is a community exchange system where people trade services based on time rather than money. Participants offer skills or assistance—like tutoring, gardening, or errands—and earn credits equivalent to the time spent. These credits can then be used to receive services from others in the network. It promotes reciprocity, social connection, and mutual support, emphasizing that everyone's time is equally valuable. TimeBanking encourages community engagement, builds trust, and fosters a sense of shared responsibility by valuing diverse skills and contributions without monetary transactions.
