Volunteer Management Microsite

Volunteer Management Microsite

Nimble AMS now includes a microsite for Volunteer Management, which lets you quickly deploy a customizable experience for your members.

Volunteer microsites are perfect for showcasing your Volunteer Opportunities. Using Community Workspaces and Community Builder, staff can rapidly point-and-click configure this template site to match the association's theme, style, and event content, and then publish them for public access. This microsite is a dedicated community that exists alongside Community Hub in your Nimble AMS org, so community management is handled for each one separately, allowing for granular theming and design on a site-by-site basis.
