Software Features.
Features built by volunteer managers.
We’ve built Volaby’s features from the collective voice of our volunteer managers, to make it the most effective solution for nonprofits.
Volunteer recruitment
Workflow.
Create your own customisable workflow for volunteers to apply and complete in order to verify their suitability. You can also create their personal volunteer profiles for access to the management platform.
Volaby gives nonprofits their time back by automating recruitment and the need to frequently communicate with volunteers back-and-forth during the onboarding phase. Using cloud-based software, nonprofit organizations can track volunteer sign-ups and their application process in real time.
Save time dealing with applications that aren’t the right fit for your volunteer program. For example, add simple yes/no screening questions in the sign-up zone to quickly filter and get connected with the right volunteers, faster.
We offer a user-friendly, configurable online volunteer profile that encourages applicants to complete a list of tasks, allowing the volunteer manager to assess them before moving to the next stage.
Part 3 of the volunteer recruitment process can prompt volunteers to upload certain documents or qualifications (e.g. police checks, working with children checks, and more) before the final sign-off to get access into the event management system.
At each stage, volunteer managers can choose to make each of the tasks either an automated or manual approval. This means managers can choose when they do or don’t want to intervene and make checks in the volunteer management process.
Once volunteers start flowing through your recruitment process, they will be added to your database where you can access and review their profile, start scheduling them on volunteer events and recording their volunteer hours.

Volunteer database
management.
Once your applicants have been approved into your volunteer management software, you can access a full view of all your volunteers including accumulative hours and level of activity across shifts. Share volunteer details across your other CRM system or emailing system using Zapier.
Volaby helps you keep a real time and consistent view of the number of volunteers active (or inactive) within your nonprofit organization. Volaby gives you more transparency of the stakeholders that span across your other nonprofit software – like donors, partners and sponsors.
Gain full visibility and control over your list of both volunteer applicants and active volunteers within your organisation’s operations.
Manage the volunteer sign-up process from end to end by reviewing volunteer application answers as and when they complete them, to keep the volunteer registration process flowing.
Use Volaby as a volunteer management tool across your whole process – from volunteer recruitment all the way to scheduling for event management and recording/tracking of hours.
Connect Volaby’s cloud-based volunteer management software into popular (Zapier compatible) software platforms to reduce the admin effort needed to manage your volunteer experience – creating an integrated, mission-driven process.
We make it easy to export CSVs of the database to help you review and create reports on how and where volunteer time is being spent in your nonprofit organization.

Self-service
volunteer scheduling.
When volunteers are approved, allow them to explore and apply for events you have created for your organization. Alternatively, take control as a manager and schedule volunteers where you deem most suitable. Next, create, schedule and publish rosters for upcoming activities and events that will notify volunteers via email and automated 2-way SMS features.
Volaby’s volunteer scheduling tools (via desktop or mobile app) give you the ability to effectively manage your volunteer events and track attendance, helping to avoid no-shows and increase engagement.
Nonprofit organizations come in all shapes and sizes, so Volaby allows managers to create both once-off or repeatable volunteer events for your organization.
Make the volunteer experience as easy as possible by creating ‘open rosters’ (just click and join!), or keep control of your volunteer management through ‘managed rosters’ where you have control of who is or isn’t attending each event.
Let Volaby take care of the repeatable admin work by sending email reminders and notifications to volunteers when they have been approved, rostered or even when an event is cancelled.
Complete your volunteer management solution by allowing automated 2-way SMS reminders to be sent to volunteer prior to their shift – which has shown a 75% increase in volunteer engagement and response across volunteers.
Make it easy for both managers and volunteers to access and schedule events that are active within your organization.
