Our Timebank is situated in Edinburgh, Scotland where we have over 200 members mainly in the coastal suburb of Portobello, but also up to about 5 miles away. We welcome anyone resident in and around the EH15 postcode which is on the north-east side of Edinburgh. In addition to this geographic restriction, members must be aged 16 years or over. Otherwise, we welcome people of any gender, religion, nationality, ethnicity, physical ability or socio-economic status.
Most of our services are connected with very local community projects, and one-to-one exchanges between members who already know each other or have become friends since joining our Timebank.
For new and existing members, this account is the central hub of Portobello Timebank. You earn time credits if you help out at our fund-raising or recruitment events, and you also receive a 5 hour bonus when you have completed an induction AND added a photo and bio to your profile!
This is the Shippo Timebank organization.
Timebanking is all about sharing our time, skills and resources. By meeting different people, helping each other and learning new things, we're build connections and strengthening our community.
We all have something to offer, and we all have something we need - maybe washing windows, learning a language, or just having kai together....
Many people doing many small things can create a world of difference!
Our Time Bank was founded in 2009 and is open to all people who live, work, or attend school within our boundaries in the Western Los Angeles area. Our membership has grown fast, but we are still small and working on building community.
Our mission is to nurture and expand a movement that promotes equality and builds caring community economies through inclusive exchange of time and talent. We are working with members and local communities to strengthen and rebuild community, foster a network of skill sharing, and use TimeBanks, Sharing Economies, and our Repair Café to achieve wide-ranging goals such as social justice, bridges between diverse communities, and local ecological sustainability.
The Phoenixville Area Time Bank is a part of the Time Banks USA Initiative and was founded in 2004. Today, we operate with around 100 members who have many different talents and skills.
Our members have many things in common - values, commitment, generosity, curiosity, and neighborly concern for others, to name a few. By exchanging talents and skills, we put our time where our values are: in the service of others and our community.
Time Banking is about giving back as much as you are able and getting what you need to maintain a purposeful life. Every person has something to contribute to our community.
It's a win-win for everybody!

The Cville TimeBank (CTB) was born as a project of Charlottesville’s Neighborhood Leadership Institute (NLI) Class of 2012. (NLI is a free program which teaches community members how the Charlottesville City government works while providing a chance for people to get more involved in the process. Concerns include development, transportation, and environmental issues; bridging the citizen/government gap; and giving citizens a chance to take an active, informed role in their communities.)
NLI team members Maggie Stein, Katherine Freeman, Charles Childs, and Kathy Kildea formed the core group of TimeBank organizers. Also called “the Kitchen Cabinet,” they launched a trial pilot project in June 2012.
The CTB opened to the community in January 2013. “Using things we learned during the trial-and-error period, we formalized the organization’s structure, established policies, and created a member handbook,” Kildea says.
The Doña Ana Time Bank was established in 2016 with the goal of reducing social isolation, strengthening community connections, and bringing people together through mutual support and the sharing of skills and services.
DAVA is a grassroots, community-driven organization advocating for the needs of Doña Ana and southern New Mexico’s colonias. Through youth programming, community events, partnerships with local and state leaders, and advocacy for infrastructure improvements, DAVA works to build a stronger, more connected community. Guided by a legacy of kindness, generosity, and respect for the Earth, DAVA is committed to sustainable, inclusive community development.
Tampa Bay Time's Mission: To promote equality and build a caring, just and sustainable community-based economy through inclusive exchange of time and talent
Tampa Bay Time (TBT) is a community service exchange, also known as a “time bank,†a network of people and groups who are creating an economy of abundance for all by connecting untapped resources with unmet needs. The concept is simple. Members help a member or partner for an hour, earn an hour of credit and spend that credit on services offered by another participant. They document exchanges in this online database. Each hour of helping earns one TBT Hour, regardless of the activity. In short, all work is valued, and valued equally.
Individuals and groups that join Tampa Bay Time weave community one hour at a time, extending trust and reciprocity across social, economic, ethnic and linguistic lines. In the process we rebuild what economist Neva Goodwin calls the “core economy,†the unpaid work on which the market economy depends. TBT accounts have significant value, so we all agree to manage them with integrity, to issue time credits only for completed and otherwise unpaid work, and to use the TBT mission (above) and time banking’s five core values to guide all participation.
The Five Core Values that Guide All Participation and Decision Making
â— Assets: Everyone is an asset: We all have something to give.
â— Redefining Work: We redefine work to value whatever it takes to raise healthy children, build
strong families, care for elders, revitalize neighborhoods, make democracy work, advance social justice and make the planet sustainable.
â— Reciprocity: Helping works better as a two-way street.
â— Community: We need each other; networks are stronger than individuals. When people help each other, they reweave communities of support, strength and trust.
â— Respect: Every human being matters. Respect for all means accountability to all.
Community Partnerships, TBT & the Co-creation of Beneficial Results
Tampa Bay Time invites groups that are aligned with our mission and values to become partners and exchange services. By partnering, groups support each other’s operations, share resources, and increase community resilience. In the process of rewarding otherwise unpaid tasks, they also create jobs for TBT members who want work.
By liberating untapped resources, Tampa Bay Time Bank exchanges kick-start multiplier effects that ripple through communities. Every trade makes a two-sided contribution to a growing web of interconnections that bind people together & make everyone more secure, building resilience while reducing expenses for all.
For those interested learning more about the how time banks connect untapped resources with personal and community needs, we recommend a book by Dr. Edgar Cahn, the Father of Time Banking. It's No More Throwaway People: The Co-Production Imperative, and a limited number of copies are available for check-out.
