"I heard about the time banking concept on public radio and the concept spoke to my values. One day in 2007, I was walking through the Phoenixville Farmer's Market and discovered Phoenixville had its very own time bank! Hurray! I signed up immediately and have been an active member ever since. I am immensely happy with the response to my request to 'eat your leftovers.' I don't cook for myself, and dinner was often a bowl of cereal. I decided to ask if anyone had homecooked leftovers to share (reimbursing for the cost of food, of course). Carla gave me the gift of her great cooking and I have eaten many a nutritious, hot, and delicious dinner ever since. An exchange that brought great joy was a request by a new mom of triplets to help with newborn feedings. Not yet a mom myself, I learned the ropes along the way and treasured the experience of caring for new babies. In the end, I've received the greater gift, as I have wonderful new friends.” - Laura Koetter @ Phoenixville Area Time Bank, Pennsylvania http://ow.ly/tN7U30a2MNC . #timebankingis #community #50storiesin50days #timebanks #story #timeasmoney #leftovers
