"Reciprocity Runs Deep in the Twin Ports"
A new kind of economy.
One hour at a time.
The Twin Ports Time Bank is a community exchange network for Duluth, MN and the surrounding region. Members share skills, time, and support with one another, no money involved. Give an hour of help, earn an hour in return. Every person's time is equal.
Whether you can offer a ride, teach a language, fix a fence, bake a meal, or simply sit and listen; you have something this community needs. And whatever you need, someone here can help.
Equal Exchange
One hour always equals one time credit, no matter what service is offered.
Mutual Aid
Not charity, not volunteering; a true two-way relationship where everyone gives and receives.
Local Roots
Built for and by the Twin Ports community, rooted in cooperation and care for our neighbors.
Free Forever
No membership fees, ever. Your time is the only currency that matters here.
