Case Study: North Carolina PTA simplifies volunteer scheduling for its national convention with SignUpGenius

North Carolina PTA fills 150 volunteer shifts with SignUpGenius

The North Carolina PTA faced a major challenge in coordinating volunteers for the 2015 National PTA Convention and Expo, which brought 1,500 attendees to North Carolina. Managing the numerous shifts and roles manually via email or spreadsheets would have been excessively time-consuming for the organizing team.

Using SignUpGenius, specifically its Premium account features, the PTA created an online sign-up system that allowed volunteers to manage their own schedules. The solution filled all necessary shifts, exceeding their goal by recruiting 150 volunteers, and provided easy reporting to create materials like nametags. SignUpGenius enabled the team to efficiently coordinate both volunteer shifts and attendee coaching sessions, saving significant administrative time and ensuring a smoothly run event.
