Your system settings are one of the first things we recommend customising when you get access to your Volunteero dashboard.
Jump to sections for:
Organisation
Time to ensure your volunteers know who you are, what you're about, how to contact you, and follow you on social media!
Go to the "System Settings" page on the left-hand side of the Staff Dashboard.
Here you can populate the following sections of your account:
Upload your organisation's logo and fill in the required details in the organisation's information tab.
Update your organisation's name (if you need to!)
Customise your Public ID, which appears on your Opportunities search page
Website link
Complete your organisation overview
Top Tip: Your organisation overview is visible to prospective volunteers who download the app looking for charities to apply to. So it's a great way to use this section to explain what your organisation does, your mission, and the types of opportunities/ roles offered. Basically, why should they choose to volunteer with you?
In the contact page, you can add a general contact email and phone number for volunteers to contact for support or other enquiries. You can also add in the links to your charity's Twitter, Facebook, and/or Instagram page.
All the information above, the volunteer can be accessed under the organisation tab in a mission and will look like this.
Quotas
Here you can access your organisation's Volunteero quota. This includes numbers relating to your account usage, such as staff users, volunteers with app access, number of missions, and so on! Any questions about your quota, please contact our team.
