Members post requests for help and also offer services. All transactions are of equal value, an hour for an hour.  

When you help someone with a request (ride to the airport, clean the windows, yard work, etc), you receive an hour of Time Credit for every hour you work. Those hours are deposited into a Time Bank.

When you need something done, you request the service and after it’s completed, you pay for it from the credit in your Time Bank.

No money is exchanged.

It’s a simple idea and it has a powerful ripple effect in building community connections. Sacramento TimeBank is an organized way to share your knowledge, skills, and services.  Instead of dollars, we bank hours. 

With time banking, you will be working with a group of committed individuals who are joined together for a common good.
