Sites can enable a waitlist option for volunteer Needs or Opportunities when they have met their limit for volunteer responses. You can tell the waitlist option is enabled when:
You see Waitlist in place of the Respond button for a Need or Opportunity.
You see Full in place of the Respond button for a Need or Opportunity and Waitlist under the Respond column for Needs or Opportunities with scheduled shifts.
Adding Yourself to a Waitlist
To add yourself to a waitlist:
Go to Needs or Opportunities and select the one you want to be added to a waitlist for.
Click Waitlist under the Respond column.
After clicking Waitlist, the button changes to Added to Waitlist.
You are now added to that waitlist.
You'll be notified via email if a spot becomes available for that Need or Opportunity. Please note that someone else on the waitlist may fill the Need or Opportunity, but you'll remain on the waitlist if this happens.
Removing Yourself from a Waitlist
If you change your mind or if something comes up, you can remove yourself from a waitlist at any time.
Go to Needs or Opportunities.
Click the Added to Waitlist button.
A popup appears asking you to confirm your selection.
