Call for Members

The Brooklyn Torch project is looking for motivated, productive individuals and friends with ideas to share in building a local currency. We meet regularly to discuss plans for our next steps. Please email the committee to find out how to help. We’re looking for writers, thinkers, organizers, doers and action heroes!

Neighbors
If you live in the neighborhood, please see our Journal and our Facebook page to find out how you can participate in upcoming events.

Steering Committee
Brooklyn Torch Project needs volunteers to help plan and implement the currency. We are looking for a diverse network of contributors. For example, if you are someone with experience with large scale civic planning, or a local organizer, we are looking for you.

Local Business Owners
If you own a local business in North Brooklyn, please speak to us about joining the network. We would love to list your business among our participants and send trade through your doors.
