Next clean-up: Saturday 10am at the boathouse. Gloves and bags provided — comment if you're coming.
Get found by new volunteers
Your public network page can be indexed by search engines, so people searching for ways to help nearby can find you.
Shifts and sign-ups
Post the next shift, pin it, and let volunteers confirm in the comments or by voting in a poll.
Thank people publicly
Share photos and results from each activity. Reactions and comments make volunteers feel seen.
Coordinators as moderators
Give team leads moderator rights so they can approve new volunteers and keep things organised.
Recommended setup
