# Saving Collectives - Beyond Money Is it possible to adapt the [collaborative savings concept](https://hackmd.io/@Teq/B1m5KTUyu) in a way that extends beyond *financial collaboration*? What other resources do people bring to our communities that are not accounted for in the current concepts of savings pools? How do we get past the expectation that a loan of money should be repaid with money. The reciprocity points concept does this a bit. Can we extend that? Is that just a mutual-aid collective?
