Michele, Volunteer Coordinator, Valrico, FL
We have already had so many volunteers signing up and I’ve had absolutely NO PROBLEMS! 🙂 I love your website and find that it is very easy to navigate.
Alana, Duluth Fall Festival, Duluth, GA
I love ivolunteer.com. It has enabled our festival to move away from paper-based signup sheets that were kept (and, often lost) by our committee chairpersons. It also helps everyone involved with the Festival keep abreast of what committees are struggling to find volunteers. What I love most about ivolunteer.com, is that it continually improves the…
Brinn, Vladimir Jones and Xcel Energy, CO
We used ivolunteer.com for our work with client Xcel Energy on their annual event, the Xcel Energy Day of Service. With the goal of engaging 1,000 community members across the state of Colorado, ivolunteer.com was a cost effective way for us to organize volunteer event options (with lots of logistical information) in one platform. Community…

Marty, Web Admin, San Jose, CA
I searched high and low for a tool like yours and can tell you, that from what I see, ivolunteer.com is everything I was looking for and FAR more.
Janet, Skutt Catholic High School, Omaha, NE
We have been using ivolunteer.com for a few months and are very glad we made the switch. Before this we had tried a couple of different free sign up services. ivolunteer.com is superior in every way. Being a private high school, being able to use our own logos and colors and not having outside advertising…
Toni, Interact Cleveland, Cleveland OH
We use ivolunteer.com for the annual Homeless Stand Down, a big and complex 3 day service event in which over 770 volunteers serve over 1,200 men, women and children facing poverty and homelessness. ivolunteer.com’s easy to use format enabled us to register groups and individual volunteers for 15 donation sorting days, 3 set up days,…
Lisianne, Volunteer Coordinator – Notre Dame High School, San Jose, CA
For the past 7 months, ivolunteer.com has saved us countless hours by providing our high-school with a fantastic online service to recruit and coordinate volunteers for a wide variety of school events. Recently, we also used it to schedule parent-counselor meetings. The interface is user-friendly and intuitive and the administration of events is simple and…
Spring Cleaning Your ivolunteer.com Account
Thousands of organizations are meeting the challenges of social distancing to slow the spread of COVID-19. We here at ivolunteer.com are no exception. With disinfecting wipes in hand, we’d like to offer two suggestions for “spring cleaning” your ivolunteer.com account while you wait for life and volunteer scheduling to get back to normal. Prune Your…
Setting Up a Recurring Event
Many organizations have a need to set up recurring volunteer slots. In other words, their ivolunteer.com “Event” is not a single event but a regular volunteer signup need over time. In an Event’s Signup Design tab, you can create a Task that spans one or more weeks or an entire calendar month. These options are…
Recruiting Today’s Volunteer
Volunteer managers of churches and other organizations have a challenging, complex job–often with limited resources. We’ve found a useful article that may help you improve your volunteers’ engagement by identifying three distinct hats you will need to wear in recruitment efforts: https://wwv.group.com/childrens-ministry/blog/lead/3-leadership-hats-youll-need-wear-recruit-todays-volunteer/ An online volunteer signup process is one of the essential tools mentioned in…
Create a Volunteer Registration Event
Many ivolunteer.com customers are organizations with a regular base of vetted volunteers. Some find it helpful to start the sign up process with a registration “Event” to collect initial information from current and prospective volunteers such as name, contact information, and volunteer preferences. To collect specific information (e.g., a phone number or a t-shirt size),…
Add Groups of Volunteers to Multiple Tasks
Sometimes, you may have a group of volunteers who will perform the same tasks across multiple days. If you are adding the volunteers to the tasks yourself, you can use the Database features of ivolunteer.com to speed up this process: This example assumes you are an Organization Administrator with access to the database and that you…

Kiosk Mode is a special mode for the signup sheet which allows participants to sign up without having to confirm by email. It is intended as a way to easily sign up volunteers at a meeting or some other gathering. You can enable kiosk mode via checkbox on the Details tab of your Event. When…
Copy an Event
Problem: Events take a long time to set up. You spent a ton of time getting the instructions, settings, structure, slot times, reminders, thank you emails set up for an event. Now you want to set up this same or a very similar event for next week. Solution: Re-use your work from the last event….
Block of Slots
The Problem: Single Signup for Multiple Slots You’re setting up an event where you have/need a finite number of resources, and you have volunteers who can consume/provide more than one of those resources each. Examples: You have limited seating at an event, and you want to allow people to bring friends with them. You only…
