Organizations can join Valley Time Trade as well. Organizations can spend Time Dollars by asking people to help with mailings, setting up, cleaning up, preparing for an event, helping at an event and more. Organizations can earn Time Dollars by giving an hour of service that you provide, a performance, an hour of computer instruction, a ticket to an event – possibilities are unlimited. Get in touch with the Valley Time Trade Coordinator Jenny Ladd, jladd@commonwealthcenter.org to talk further about possibilities.
