iVolunteer

We make volunteering easy. The iVolunteer Plugin displays local volunteering opportunities in the blog sidebar.

Wired Impact

<p>A simple, free way to keep track of your nonprofit’s volunteers and opportunities.</p>
<p><strong>How can the Wired Impact Volunteer Management plugin help your nonprofit?</strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Post one-time and flexible volunteer opportunities on your website –</strong> Promote volunteer opportunities on any page of your website using a simple block.</li>
<li><strong>Volunteers can sign up directly on your website –</strong> Make volunteering even easier for your supporters by giving them the option to sign up for an opportunity directly on your website. A confirmation email will be sent to you and the volunteer once they sign up.</li>
<li><strong>Control the number of signups available for opportunities –</strong> Only need 10 people to help out at an event? Set a cap on the number of people who can sign up. Want as many volunteers as you can get? No problem. You don’t have to set a limit.</li>
<li><strong>Send reminder emails anytime –</strong> Schedule an automated reminder email a few days in advance or send a one-off email with last-minute details.</li>
<li><strong>Volunteer profiles that track participation and more –</strong> Keep track of all of your volunteers’ involvement. See what they’ve helped out with in the past, future opportunities they’re signed up for, how long they’ve been volunteering and notes that will help you stay organized.</li>
</ul>
