Nonprofit Features

Recruit

POINT Page (Volunteer Hub)

Give a single call to action to volunteers and compile everything in one place with your POINT page and volunteer hub. It includes your organization’s profile information, your public event signups, a donation button, and your needs registry (if applicable). Share your POINT page link on social media, post it on your website, email it to volunteers, and blast it out in newsletters.

Website Integration

Want to add your organization’s POINT volunteer opportunities on your website? We make it easy with our web integration. Create a volunteer event or program on POINT and opportunities on your website update automatically. Volunteers can sign up on your website, and all data is captured on your POINT admin dashboard.

POINT Mobile App

Volunteers nationwide are on POINT! By posting your events on POINT, new people in your area can engage with your organization. Plus, your current volunteers can use POINT’s app to sign up for your events, and they get a personalized feed that keeps your organization at the top to increase their engagement with your mission. (We promise all POINT users get access to the same great features, whether they use the mobile app or web platform.)

Ongoing Events

Create, edit, and manage volunteering events recurring weekly or monthly. Once an event series is created, admins have the flexibility to make edits to only one or to all following events. Ongoing events are marked with a badge for simple management.

Easy Event Sign Up
and Check-In

Volunteers sign up by claiming a volunteer spot on events but you can also easily assign or reserve spots to be filled only by certain volunteers or groups when necessary. Tracking volunteer attendance is simple using the admin dashboard and event impact is automatically reported.

Check-In Stations

Cut back on admin time and responsibilities with volunteer self-check-in features!

On POINT, there are 2 different types of check in stations: You can either have volunteers self-check-in on a organization’s computer or iPad via kiosk or scan a custom QR code right from their smartphones. (You can even display a QR code from the Kiosk view, shown in the photo on the right)

Background Checks

POINT integrates seamlessly with Checkr to power the fastest, fairest background checks for nonprofits of all sizes. Checkr is the nation’s leader in background checks providing checks for companies like Uber and Instacart.

With Auto Ordering, POINT automatically orders a check for each volunteer when they register for an event and streamlines your workflow.

Nonprofit and Corporate Partnerships

POINT’s tools give a serious engagement boost to your partnerships with businesses and other organizations. Private or co-hosted events are easy to create and share out, and you can send the company an automatic report of their team’s volunteer hours post-event. They see their impact and you grow your partnerships.

Have a company you partner with regularly? Invite them to join POINT for Work so you can co-host events and share signups and data!

Document Storage

Store all of your organizations volunteer documents in the Document Library. The Document Library tracks each document versioning, views, and more. Attach documents to volunteer profiles (e.g., signed waivers), events (e.g., parking maps) and even your org profile.

Calendar View

Visualize all of your upcoming volunteer opportunities in one view. Use the color legend and event badges to see the status of your recruitment efforts. The calendar event preview also include quick links for needed actions and easy management right from the calendar view.

Volunteer Programs

Organize your volunteering efforts into different programs. Separate events, volunteer hours, groups of volunteers, admin notifications and even webpages into different program types for more streamlined management.

Volunteer Event Shift Management

Adding shift times to your volunteer event sign up is easy, and you can even use shifts to have volunteers sign up for specific tasks and roles. Plus, you can sort by shifts for easy volunteer check-in.

Engage

Volunteer App Features

Volunteers can access your organization’s opportunities on the mobile app or web platform and your own website. Each volunteer on POINT gets their own Volunteer Impact Profile to track their impact, total up their donations, and easily see the organizations they support.

Automatic Volunteer Time Tracking

By checking a volunteer in at an event, you approve their hours. We automatically track hours for events posted on POINT, but volunteers can add their own outside hours to their POINT profile using either the mobile app or web platform.

Self-Submit Volunteer Hours

Don’t lose out on the reporting the work volunteers completed on their own time! Volunteers can also self-submit hours for your organization, and POINT notifies admins so they can approve, edit, or deny those hours.

Micro Donation Platform

Nearly 80% of volunteers also donate money to the organizations they give time to. Your supporters can use POINT to give money with a tap—no amount is too small or too large! Their impact is tracked in their POINT profile, and you get a report of all the volunteers who have donated to your organization.

In-Kind Giving Registry

Think of POINT’s In-Kind Giving Registry as a nonprofit version of a wedding registry. Request items your nonprofit needs that can be dropped off or shipped to your location, or ask for funds to purchase specific items. Our in-kind registry is especially powerful during emergency situations for disaster relief.

Report

Volunteer Activity Profiles

Get to know your volunteers on a deeper level through activity profiles. See details about their involvement with your nonprofit, such as events attended and donation history, and add notes (only visible to your admins).

Volunteer Statistics and Reports

Use our automatically generated statistics to see everything from big picture trends to detailed volunteer activity, and filter data by groups or programs. These insights can be used to improve your volunteer program or share in reports for stakeholders.

Giving Reports

When volunteers give to your organization on POINT, their donation activity is automatically tracked on your dashboard. Easily report on overall giving, or break down donations statistics by individual volunteers, groups, or dates/date ranges.
