A simple, effective platform for your organization to manage volunteers.

Visit VolunteerLocal

VolunteerLocal is a volunteer management platform for organizations running ongoing programs or single events. It provides a configurable volunteer database, email and SMS communication with templates and automated messages, shift and job scheduling with a volunteer-facing landing page and calendar widget, and tracking and reporting on volunteer activity, hours and attendance. Volunteers can sign up without a password, and administrators can receive notifications for signups, profile updates, cancellations and flagged registrations.

The platform includes registration forms, applicant vetting, waivers, background screens, user access controls, integrations, data import and CSV export, group volunteering tools, self-reporting, and a mobile app for volunteers. Communication features include templates with smart tags, automated messages triggered by volunteer actions, scheduled reminders, and email and SMS delivery with statistics. Scheduling features include jobs and shifts, landing pages, calendar widgets, and group registration.

VolunteerLocal is offered in three plans for ongoing programs and three plans for single events, with seat-based admin access and annual SMS allowances that vary by plan. All plans include onboarding and support via email, phone and video. A trial is available without a credit card until upgrading to a paid account.
