The same shifts, week after week, filled by a roster that lives in one person's head. VolunTeam turns it into a shared page: volunteers see the open shifts, claim the ones they can do, get reminded the day before, and every hour is logged for your reporting.
Numbers are a guide only — set your own slots, names and times to match how your club runs.

Post the same shift pattern week after week and let your volunteer base claim what suits them. When a shift is short, message only the people who aren't already rostered that week rather than blasting everyone.
Volunteer hours are usually a reporting requirement, not a nice-to-have. Every completed shift logs hours against the volunteer and the role, and you can export any date range to CSV for an acquittal, an insurance return or your annual report.
Recognition is what keeps people coming back. A monthly award, a public honour roll and milestone rewards give you an easy, genuine way to thank the people who show up every week.
Yes. Choose a date range and export hours per volunteer and per role to CSV.
Your sign-up page is a public link you choose who to share with. Volunteer contact details and hours are only visible to your organisation's admins and managers.
