Groups & Teams

Groups & Teams

Organize your staff, volunteers, and board members into groups and teams for streamlined management and collaboration. The Groups & Teams feature in People Hub is the central place to manage how people are organized within your nonprofit.

What Are Groups & Teams?

Groups and teams help you organize people by function, department, project, or any other criteria that makes sense for your organization:

  • Groups: Broad categories like "Staff", "Volunteers", "Board Members", or "Donors"
  • Teams: Specific working groups like "Finance Committee", "Event Volunteers", or "Program Staff"

Creating Groups & Teams

  1. Navigate to People Hub → Groups & Teams
  2. Click "Create Group" or "Create Team"
  3. Enter a name and description
  4. Add members by searching for existing people or inviting new ones
  5. Save your group or team

Managing Members

From the Groups & Teams page, you can:

  • Add Members: Search and add existing people to groups
  • Remove Members: Remove people who are no longer part of the group
  • View Activity: See group member activity and engagement
  • Send Communications: Email all members of a group at once

Use Cases

  • Board Management: Create a "Board of Directors" group to track board members and their terms
  • Volunteer Coordination: Organize volunteers by event, program, or availability
  • Staff Organization: Group staff by department or location
  • Committee Tracking: Manage finance, fundraising, or program committees

Best Practices

  • Keep group names clear and descriptive
