Simplify the process to manage and engage volunteers
Volunteer scheduling, organising events, attracting and onboarding volunteers, matching volunteers’ skills and interests, onboarding and offboarding volunteers, and engaging and retaining volunteers can require a considerable amount of time for many volunteer managers. Therefore, not-for-profits must have a system in place that can help juggle all these time-consuming but essential tasks so you can dedicate more time towards achieving your mission.
This is where purpose-built not-for-profit solutions for volunteer management, engagement, and onboarding and offboarding can be of assistance. With these solutions, not-for-profits can:
Manage your day-to-day processes efficiently to recruit, onboard, and retain larger pools of volunteers.
Make it easy for volunteers to find and apply for volunteering opportunities that match their skills, interests, and schedules.
Seamlessly integrate with your existing Microsoft software investments for a connected not-for-profit operation.
Be assured of secure access to your data, 24/7, on any device since the solutions run in the Azure cloud, no less.
