Unique time exchange in the Austin neighborhood of Chicago, 2015 They were warm summer days In the Austin neighborhood of the Chicago west side. Circle Urban Ministries' Afterschool program wanted to introduce tennis to 14 of their kids. Rather than scarce dollars, we used time exchange. Each parent or guardian "paid" 2 hours of time for their child to participate in the program. 14 children times 2 hours gave us 28 hours to pay the three tennis coaches. |

Local exchange, brokering, and marketplace Here's how we can build our local economy from the bottom up . Ask several local businesses what they are planning to buy from outside the area in the coming year. Then immediately see if there are local businesses capable of putting in bids for the work. In the meantime, while those searches are being made and bids prepared, visit more purchasers, start seeking potential suppliers for their items, and so on. Make up the program as it goes along.

May 4th, 6 to 9pm. TimeBanking & more - Try it, you'll like it “Try it, you’ll like it! “ Develop strategies to increase the use of TimeBanking: It’s time for us to use the many wonderful assets of all residents, increasing sharing of unmet needs and unused resources. A time bank can help us do that. A time bank is a tool that matches individuals who have something to share (which is everyone) with individuals and organizations that have needs. Join us to explore the assets and needs in OPRF that can be matched through TimeBanking and encourage residents to try it.http://www.greencommunityconnections.org |
