The World Heritage Exchange Trading System (WHETS) provides a global marketplace and social currency for services and experiences money can't buy.
WHETS is simple, free and based on the resource we all own: Time.
WHETS is based on the acknowledgement that everyone has something to offer, realising the assets that otherwise lies
dormant in people and organisations.
Earn WHETS (￦) by sharing your time and talents (1 hour = 1 ￦), and spend WHETS on assistance and/or services offered by others.
By identifying your skills and offering hours of your time, you can earn WHETS that may be used to redeem offers from any of the other offers in the WHETS community. WHETS is relevant to everyone from all walks of life,
WHETS' mission is to create and sustain a supportive and reciprocal network where all members are empowered, respected and equally valued for their time, talents and contributions, and were World Heritage is considered a valuable resource in sustainable development. Let's unite in linking heritage with actions for sustainable development!
