Time Banking

Hey, Saints! I've been pondering something that Kathleen Thompson told me about for some time now. It's called "Time Banking." The concept seems to have great potential for building community and for simplifying our need-based world. Here's the  web site: http://www.timebanks.org/. There is a video on the home page that introduces the concept. By the way, it appears there is a Time Bank here in the Portland Area. I've sent an email to them.

Can we get a dialog going about this?

More Timebank Info

I got a response from a lady named Jesse who is coordinating the Portland Time Bank. There is a core group of about thirty here in the area that are doing this kind of thing. If you're interested you can check out the website at http://www.pdxtimebank.org They are sponsoring an informational potluck on February 24th at the People's Co-op. I'm planning to go. Anyone else interested?
