- At this stage of civilisation when everyone is concerned with materialistic gains ie to say status, position and wealth resulting in lack of emotional bonding. In such rushing society where only business relationship is flourishing, many women(women)especially elderly and ill, are finding themselves alone while a good number of women (men) are ready to take care of such women(men).
- For psychologically happy fulfilling life, emotional bonding & sharing among people is necessary. People need quality time and care from fellow people.
- IOIC Time Bank is our efforts to create social network of caring people ready to spare quality time & people who needs both type of care namely physical and emotional. This initiative is based on our observation that goodness returns goodness kindness returns kindness.
