When you work with VolunteerLocal, that face is smiling. With the motto Happy Volunteering, it’s our mission to make the volunteer management process fun and friendly.
VolunteerLocal created a software management solution that is easy for cities, governments, and municipalities to use, provides helpful data reports and is serviced by real people — not bots. When you have a question, we answer the phone. Your volunteers aren’t stressed by the signup process — no accounts or passwords needed! From start to finish, the VolunteerLocal process is a happy one.
At the core of VolunteerLocal is a flexible database that lets you have full control over your data. Our platform provides the tools so you and your volunteers can efficiently collect, organize and utilize data.
Every bit of information captured on a volunteer is searchable, which makes finding specific volunteer records simple when making changes or shift assignments. You can grant control to volunteers to update their own information, saving you administrative effort and allowing you to easily run campaigns to collect updated information like waivers and preferences. And your data can be exported anytime you need it. Afterall, this is your data.
Effortless communication is key to effective volunteer management, and VolunteerLocal provides a variety of tools to keep you connected with your volunteers. From email to SMS and automated messaging, our platform ensures your messages are timely, relevant and well-received.
Giving you full control is what VolunteerLocal is all about. Our email and SMS features let you personalize messages with smart tags, set filtering options and get granular delivery statistics — no more wondering who opened and read your messages. You can automate messages to kick off when volunteers take specific actions, and you can set notifications to alert you to any or all volunteer activity. VolunteerLocal’s software is designed to provide you with the tools to craft a personal, meaningful conversation with your audience.
VolunteerLocal’s mission is to put the smile in volunteering, and that starts by smoothly handling the complexities of scheduling so you don’t have to. We also make volunteers very happy because our platform is so simple to use. (Seriously, we’ve had customers forward us messages of praise from volunteers!)
With VolunteerLocal behind the scenes, you and your organization get to be the hero and volunteers get an amazing experience. Using VolunteerLocal’s platform, all scheduling communications and tools are through your own customized landing page. Volunteers see you, know you, and interact with you. You can also display all your volunteer opportunities on your own website using our customizable calendar widget, allowing volunteers to interact with you before, during, and after the event, so your relationship is cemented.
VolunteerLocal’s tracking and reporting tools provide organizations with valuable insights into volunteer activity and event and program performance. These features help you measure success, track contributions and make data-driven decisions going forward.
As an event or program is happening, VolunteerLocal’s tracking and reporting tools help you stay abreast of trends and actions and can help you identify problems in real time. At the conclusion of your event or program, VolunteerLocal’s tools are key to assessing every aspect, from check-in methods to hours and attendance. We take pride in our platform’s accuracy and reliability, and we’re happy to offer you custom reports that are specific to your organization’s needs.
