Kia ora koutou,
We’d like to introduce you to a new TimeBank initiative called Happy Bees -
a TimeBank initiative designed to help each other complete projects,then celebrate with a shared meal. completing projects together, then sharing a meal.
Happy Bees is a Timebank way of getting the work done because its more fun when we come together and we all love food!
How it works
Need help with a project? It could be yard clean up, moving house, getting the garage organised, etc.
- Give us the details of your project and we’ll organise a time with you.
- We’ll notify the Timebankers and see who’s keen to volunteer.
- We’ll communicate to you and the volunteers what the plan is.
- On the day, you and the volunteers will bring a plate to share (e.g. shared lunch), complete the mahi (work), then share kai (food).
Example: Ro would like 2 people to help organise his garden shed with him as he’s in a wheelchair and cannot reach the top shelves. He estimates it might take 1 hour.
Brad & Mikaela volunteer and meet up with Ro on the day. Ro, Brad & Mikaela all prepare/bring some food to share. After completing the mahi, they sit together and enjoy their lunch.
Through TimeBank, Ro exchanges 1 time credit to Brad and 1 time credit to Mikaela.
