Volunteer Matching Tool

Match enthusiastic volunteers
to the opportunities that need them

After every awareness session, students and supporters reach out wanting to help. The Volunteer Matching Tool turns that interest into placements — without the spreadsheets.

Get started

Volunteer engagement, simplified.

How it works
1

Capture volunteer interest

After a webinar or campaign, supporters submit a short form with name, email, country and availability.

2

Publish opportunities

Staff list volunteering opportunities with organisation, description, location and time commitment.

3

Discover & enrol

Volunteers browse open opportunities filtered by region and self-enrol in one with a single click.

4

Track placements

Staff see who enrolled in what, and export a clean list — no more chasing rows in a spreadsheet.

Features

  • Simple, mobile-friendly volunteer interest form
  • Staff dashboard to publish and close opportunities
  • Region filtering so volunteers see what is local to them
  • Automates coordination communications
  • Exportable list of placements for tracking and reporting

Benefits

  • Place more volunteers instead of losing interest in inboxes and spreadsheets
  • Keep your team focused on advocacy work, not on manual coordination
  • See where supporters are so you can run regional campaigns and follow up locally
Why we built it

After the webinar, the work shouldn't stall.

Awareness sessions reach thousands of students every year. Most of them never get matched.

Animal advocacy organisations run awareness sessions and webinars that reach many supporters each year. Many of them leave wanting to volunteer — but a small team can't pair every individual with the right opportunity by hand. Spreadsheets, mail merges, and goodwill only stretch so far. Energy and interest fade while inboxes fill up.

The Volunteer Matching Tool replaces the spreadsheet with a website. Volunteers tell you who they are and where they are. Staff publish what's open. The system shows each volunteer the opportunities that fit, and records the placements for you to follow up on.

Less coordination overhead. More volunteers placed. More animals helped.

Why it works

Built for animal advocacy, not for selling SaaS.

Shaped around farmed-animal advocacy and the way movements actually run.

For volunteers

  • A short form, no account required to apply

  • One enrolment at a time — no overwhelm

For organisers

  • Publish opportunities in minutes, mark them open or closed
  • See every volunteer who has enrolled, in one place
  • Export placements as a list for follow-up and reporting
