Feature Release: Organization Level Staff Lists

InitLive, now Bloomerang Volunteer, was acquired by Bloomerang in 2023. Learn more about how Bloomerang can help you manage volunteers and grow your nonprofit!

When it comes to making volunteer placement decisions, a lot of information needs to be considered before final action is taken. Having a bird’s eye view over your database of volunteers and only exposing key information will enable faster decision-making and help gain insight into overall engagement levels. 

With InitLive’s latest release, organization administrators have full customization capabilities over the staff lists. Explore the power of the dynamic grid views
by entering a full-screen view, tailoring which columns display, how they are re-sized, controlling sort orders, what information can be exported, and perform search functions on any data displaying.
