      Manage Organization Notifications

      With Organization notifications, you can choose to send an email notification, a bell notification in Bloomerang Volunteer, or both when a volunteer takes action on the organization. 

      Notifications are sent only when a volunteer takes action. Notifications are not sent when an administrator or manager performs an action on their behalf.

      Note: Changes to notifications apply to the organization you’ve selected. Each organization has its own set of notifications. 

      To set up or change shift or organization notifications:

      1. Select My Organizations.
      2. Click an organization.
      3. Click General Settings.
      4. Click Notification Settings.
      5. In the Organization Notifications section, turn these notifications on or off:
        • Sign Up — Get notified when volunteers registration process to sign up for the organization.
        • Apply — Get notified when volunteers apply to join the organization. This means there are pending applications that require organization manager approval.

      Tip: You can also quickly update notification settings for each opportunity from the Opportunity List in your Organization settings.
