Understanding the Concept Deeper
Members exchange services using time instead of money—1 hour of work earns 1 time credit to "spend" on another service.
Volunteering is often one-way giving; timebanking is reciprocal—everyone gives and receives equally.
To promote equality and inclusion—everyone’s time is equally important, regardless of the task.
Timebanking is based on mutual respect, community, inclusion, and the idea that everyone has something valuable to offer.
Bartering is usually a direct exchange; timebanking uses a shared credit system, so you don’t have to trade with the same person. There is no price to our time.
