The Five Core Values of Timebanking

We are all assets - Every human being has something to contribute.

Redefining work - Some work is beyond price. We need to value whatever it takes to raise healthy children, build strong families, revitalize neighborhoods, make democracy work, advance social justice, make the planet sustainable. This kind of work needs to be honored, recorded, and rewarded.

Reciprocity - Helping works better as a two-way street. "How can I help you" becomes "How can we help each other build the world we both will live in"

Community - We need each other... people helping each other reweave networks of support, strength and trust. Communities are stronger than individuals, and community is built on mutual respect, trust, and commitment.

Respect - Every human being matters. Respect is a foundation for freedom of speech and freedom of religion, and supplies the heart and soul of democracy.
