New to Time Exchange?
The concept is simple: Your hour helping someone = 1 time credit. Use those credits to get help from anyone in the network. Everyone's time has equal value. Dog walking = tax prep = gardening = tutoring.

Why Join the LBTE?
Because we all have gifts to share and things we need help with. The LB Time Exchange makes both visible and helps connect us in our local community.

About the Mini Repair Cafe: While you can get many items back in working order at the LBC Fix It Clinics, you can’t bring computers, mobile phones, or jewelry there… So we’re hosting a mini repair cafe! For more details on jewelry, computer, and phone repairs, see: https://timeexchangelb.com/2026/09/21/long-beach-time-exchange-potluck-social-mini-repair-cafe/
