โ– Heads up! This article is only intended for Advanced Program Managers. Advanced Program Managers are only available on Amplify sites.

Volunteers in your Programs can opt out of email blasts, automated notifications, or both! You can also opt-in or out of notifications right from the Edit Profile area of the site.

โ„น๏ธ So you know: Some sites use language overrides. This means you might see Need in place of Opportunity or Program in place of Agency. Only Site Managers can request language overrides for a site.

Getting Started

You or your volunteers can update your communication preferences anytime. To get started:

1. Click your profile image or initials from the top menu bar.

2. Select Edit Profile.

3. Scroll to the Data and Communication Settings section and click Manage My Preferences.

4. Enable or disable the communications you want to receive.

Want to turn off Volunteer Notifications? Toggle the button beside it to Off.

Want to select which Volunteer Notifications you receive? Check or uncheck your preferences!

5. Click Save My Preferences when you're done!

Want to stop receiving all communications and notifications? Click Unsubscribe From All Emails and Notifications. Clicking this means that volunteers won't receive important reminders about Opportunities they've signed up for.
