What Volunteer.box is

Volunteer.box is a web platform for nonprofits to coordinate volunteers, schedule tasks, and track projects across multiple locations. Staff can maintain profiles with contact details, skills, availability preferences, and assignment history. Tasks can be scheduled once or recur daily, weekly, or monthly, and related tasks can be grouped into projects. Calendar views include day, week, month, and agenda. Volunteers do not need accounts: they can submit post-task forms without logging in, including hours worked, ratings, and notes. Organization admins can configure task statuses, categories, and workflows. The platform supports shift scheduling, volunteer messaging, hours tracking, custom forms, and volunteer self-signup, and organizations can export data in standard formats. The Free plan costs nothing for organizations with fewer than 100 volunteers. Email and SMS notifications use the organization’s own messaging accounts. The maker says each organization’s data is isolated in separate database schemas and encrypted in transit and at rest. Account data is deleted within 30 days after closure, except where legal or compliance requirements require retention. Support replies by email within one business day.
