A VolunteerLocal Case Study
The Greater Iowa Chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association, a grassroots-turned-regional arm of the world’s leading Alzheimer’s care, support and research organization serving 63 counties, runs large programs and fundraisers like Walk to End Alzheimer’s while responding to a growing disease burden. Coordinating the hundreds of volunteers needed for events and regular services was cumbersome—relying on multiple emails and constantly updated Excel spreadsheets.
The chapter adopted VolunteerLocal’s volunteer scheduling and management platform to centralize sign-ups and listings in one place. Volunteers can now customize shifts by availability and interest, eliminating repetitive emails and spreadsheet chaos, which streamlined coordination for Walk to End Alzheimer’s and improved overall volunteer management.
