Whenever you need to contact a volunteer, you can easily do so through our communication system on Volunteer World. Typically, social projects reach out to volunteers after receiving an application to discuss further details.

1. Log in to your Volunteer World account

Once logged in, you have two options: either contact the volunteer directly through their application or via the messaging function.

Option 1: Contact the volunteer via his/her application.

1. Click on the tab "Applications".

2. Click on "Details" on the chosen application

3. Write your message in the messaging function on the right side of the application.

Option 2: You can now write a message to the volunteer.

1. Click on the tab "Messenger".

2. Select the conversation you want to reply to.

You can use the available filters to easily narrow down conversations by Unread status, Application status, or Project.

3. Enter your message.
