We’d like to extend our thanks to the Fan Fox and Leslie R. Samuels Foundation for funding a study that measured the impact of the TimeBank on older adult members.
We are thrilled that 100 percent of members surveyed reported benefits from TimeBanking, including improvements in physical health, mental health, access to services, financial savings, trust of others, socialization, sense of belonging, support for aging in place and quality of life.
Members also reported that their skills and services are now being utilized by others in the community.

We would also like to thank the Rockefeller Brothers Fund for their support for the TimeBank's work with immigrants and education. A survey measuring the impact of our Study Coach project showed significant improvement in student grades, confidence and attitude towards school.

In addition, we track statistics, including the number of members, hours contributed, number of exchanges and demographic information on our membership.
