This video introduces customers to the Event Creation feature in Bonterra’s CyberGrants platform, a Strategic Philanthropy solution. The feature empowers users to design and manage volunteer events that promote community engagement and organizational connection. Whether planning one-time events, recurring activities, or ongoing projects, users can customize event details, assign volunteer shifts, and track overall participation and impact. The tutorial walks through how to initiate an event from the homepage, select an organization, and enter key information such as the opportunity title, schedule, and volunteer needs.
The video further explains how to refine event visibility, choose causes and skills, set volunteer limits, and enable options like waitlisting and friends-and-family participation. It also covers configuring virtual or in-person logistics and assigning a team lead as the primary contact. Once submitted, events may appear immediately or await administrative approval, depending on the setup. Post-event, users can access tools to update attendance, log hours, or clone events for future use.
To continue building a vibrant culture of volunteerism, viewers are encouraged to explore the Manage Events section regularly, keep event details up to date, and reflect on each event’s impact.
