Community improvement ideas for Richmond, Indiana, USA

Launch the Wayne County Time Bank

Time banking is simply about spending an hour doing something for somebody in your community. That hour goes into the Time Bank as a Time Dollar. Then you have a Time dollar to spend on having someone doing something for you. It's a simple idea, but it has powerful ripple effects in building community connections.

A few years ago, a group of people in Richmond created the Wayne County Time Bank.  We set up an organizational structure, launched a website with time dollar tracking software, and even conducted a few orientation sessions.  Today, the Time Bank project is dormant, but waits ready to be relaunched and promoted!
