This week on Voices of Taos, reporter Stephanie Gates talks with founder of TiLT and Taos TimeBank, Todd Wynward.
A time bank is a type of mutual aid network where members can exchange skills and services and everyone’s time is of equal value. Members of the Taos TimeBank will be able to earn one hour of time credit for every hour of service they provide.
Stephanie and Todd discuss how a time bank can help build community and reclaim hope, especially in uncertain times. Todd also talks about how the Taos Time Bank will be different from previous similar projects. He believes that utilizing a "thin layer of technology and staffing" will help the time bank be a robust, long-term project.
