Details
Description: TimeBank Santa Cruz is a nonprofit network to share skills and talents.

The TimeBank uses software to match the human resources of ordinary people to the unmet needs of others. Everyone's hour is of equal value. No money changes hands for services provided. It build social capital through reciprocity.

This powerful infrastructure creates access to untapped capacity. It delivers services at low cost. Its collaborative model encourages civic engagement and strengthens local resilience.
Mission: Our mission is to strengthen local resilience by utilizing the human resources of our County's residents to meet the needs of their fellows.
Programs: We're changing how we deliver sustainable living-skills education: instead of large, day-long events, we'll be offering pop-up reskilling workshops throughout the year through the TimeBank at members' homes and other locations. The best way to be involved is to join the Timebank: you can reskill yourself there year-round. All classes will be free to TimeBankers and low-cost to non-members. Proceeds benefit the TimeBank.
