Case Study: Deakin University Student Association doubles student volunteer participation with Rosterfy

Deakin University Student Association doubles student volunteering footprint in 6 months with Rosterfy

The Deakin University Student Association (DUSA) faced a challenge in managing its vibrant volunteer culture across four campuses. With over 2,000 student volunteers, its processes were antiquated, relying on paper forms, Excel spreadsheets, and Facebook groups. This created an inconsistent and unsustainable system that wasted staff time and failed to meet the expectations of tech-savvy students. DUSA turned to Rosterfy for a volunteer management solution to centralize and modernize its operations.

By implementing Rosterfy's white-labeled platform, DUSA gained access to advanced scheduling, automated onboarding, and digital communications. The solution delivered immediate and significant results, with the university doubling its student volunteering footprint to 350 students within the first six months. Beyond this measurable growth, Rosterfy saved staff time and money by automating administrative heavy lifting, which allowed the team to focus on more impactful projects and improve the overall volunteer experience.
