Mission Statement
TimeBanksNYC is a free resource for connecting individuals who recognize that each person has talents to share, and that the overall community is strengthened when neighbors help one another.
TBNYC is part of NYC Service and Age-Friendly NYC. It is administered by the NYC Department for the Aging in partnership with the Aging in New York Fund, Inc.
Description
Individuals, Groups and Organizations are welcome to join!
Exchanging time and talents with fellow New Yorkers is easy and fun!
For each hour a TimeBanksNYC member spends providing a service or sharing a skill with another member, he or she earns a "time credit" for the service. This "time credit" can then be redeemed for a service from someone in the TimeBanks network. Services include: grocery shopping, transportation, dog-walking, house cleaning, foreign language lessons, tailoring, cooking lessons, and many more!
