A social network for people who...
Would give an umbrella
to a stranger.
Even on a good hair day.
Don’t squish spiders. Poor little guys.
Even if spiders give them the creeps.
Pick up trash rather than walking past.
Even if no-one is watching.
Would give a colleague
a lift home.
Even if they live in the other direction.
Would babysit for
a friend.
Even if they weren’t invited to the party.
T4G is a kind corner of the internet where
People trade time for kindness
Here’s how time trading works:
1
You micro-volunteer for a good cause, or help a neighbour / friend / colleague in need.
Perhaps they need someone to talk to their plants while they are away. And water them too.
2
They send you a time credit.
For your kind plant-whispering services. 1 hour = 1 credit.
3
You use the time credit for something you need.
Perhaps someone handy could help you fix a leaky tap, or take some junk to the tip?
Or you can give the time credit to someone in the community who needs it more.
And so the cycle of kindness continues!
101 time trading ideas
(Beyond talking to plants)
For
people
Like you
Do kind things for people in pixels and in person. Receive kindness from people in pixels and in person.
For
organisations
Like yours
Do you need volunteers? Time trading is better. Give credits in exchange for design services, community engagement, skill sharing and more.
For
your mum
or dad/nan/gramps
If you live away from older parents or grandparents, T4G might be a way to look after them from a distance.
Be kind
We have two fundamental beliefs:
Firstly, we believe that Custard Creams are a better biscuit that Oreos. Secondly, we believe that humans are kind, helpful and trustworthy by default.
Trade time
Give some kindness, get some kindness
Post offers and requests of kindness. Respond to other people’s offers and requests. Do something for someone and receive a time credit. Use it or donate it.
Feel good
Kindness is the jam
Giving AND receiving kindness makes us feel warm AND fuzzy (official science term). Kindness is the jam on your toast. Spread it thick!

You’ll also get occasional letters from us.
Not (*rolls eyes*) email newsletters — letters.
Well, technically still emails, but sent by a friendly electronic carrier pigeon. And only when we have something interesting to say to new friends. You can un-sub whenever.
