VolunteerLocal is a user-friendly volunteer scheduling platform used by event planners and volunteer coordinators of all types. We offer per-event and annual (unlimited events!) plans to fit a wide range of budgets.
VolunteerLocal has been empowering athletic competitions, art festivals, music festivals, non-profit organizations and many other events all over the world since 2003. Born out of a need identified by Des Moines Arts Festival, our web-based software has proven to be a key component in managing the volunteer force that is so vital to events ranging from Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival to IRONMAN. VolunteerLocal is proudly based in Des Moines, Iowa and our software works anywhere you can access the Internet.
"We used to coordinate all 240 volunteer shifts for the Iowa Craft Beer tent using a giant excel spreadsheet with hundreds of blacked-out and empty cells--we called it 'the Soduku Puzzle.' I also had a PDF document that I manually updated every three hours. It was a nightmare. Plus we were left with about 70 extra t-shirts after our first appearance at the State Fair because we didn't have an efficient way to record that information. VolunteerLocal has really improved the registration process for us. Our VolunteerLocal page went live at 8:00am on May 1st. In one hour, 140 spots were gone. After one day, I think there were only 18 spots left. Probably saved me about 100 hours of labor and I was able to customize my registration page to collect information on t-shirt sizes and colors. It was great. No leftover t-shirts, no Soduku Puzzles."
"Thank you for all you time and patience while we cycled the decision through our various committees. We are very excited to get away from our 39 year tradition of scheduling volunteers on paper - and only recently excel spreadsheets - and provide our community volunteers with a more efficient and user friendly way to help us with our event. Everyone to a person is on board with using VolunteerLocal's software for our Designer House Event this year."
"VolunteerLocal was an invaluable tool in our event preparation and execution. There is not a better volunteer management tool for the money."
