Athens Time Exchange

The Athens Time Exchange (ATX) is a community network that promotes access to resources and recognizes the value that everyone can offer. This occurs when ATX members exchange services at no monetary cost within the member network. Using the community website, each member can discover opportunities to give and receive services, and can track the time earned and spent. We strengthen our community bonds as we value each other's time and recognize all time as equal.

How does the Athens Time Exchange work?

At its most basic level, “time banking” is simply about spending an hour doing something for somebody in your community. That hour goes into the time “bank” as an ATX hour. Then you have an ATX hour to spend on having someone doing something for you. It's a simple idea, but it has powerful ripple effects in building community connections.

See the graphic below for a visual description of this process.
