What is a Time Bank? 

This event is organized by the Echo Park chapter of the Arroyo S.E.C.O Network of Time Banks. A Time Bank is a community system where a person who volunteers one hour of their time helping someone else gains an hour time credit. They can then use that time credit or their accrued time credits to receive help from someone else. For more information visit www.facebook.com/echoparktimebank or www.asntb.com
