Volunteer scheduling and volunteer management software
What is Volunteer List?
Volunteer List is a volunteer scheduling app for churches, schools and nonprofits. You set up your roles, rotations and recurring events once; it fills every date from the rotation, emails volunteers their reminders, and gives coordinators an AI assistant for the rest.
Who it's for
Volunteer coordinators at organizations that run the same volunteer roles on a repeating schedule.
- Churches and ministries (greeters, nursery, setup, worship and tech teams)
- Schools and PTAs
- Nonprofits, food banks and community groups with regular shifts
Teams that take turns in a rotation and are tired of rebuilding a spreadsheet or group text every week.
What it does
- Roles and rotations
- Create the roles you need (for example Setup, Greeting or Nursery) and a rotation of the people who take turns in each one.
- Recurring events
- Set up a service or shift once as a repeating event. Volunteer List generates each date and fills its slots from the rotation.
- Schedule changes
- Reassign or clear a slot, cancel a date, and record the dates a volunteer is unavailable.
- Email reminders
- Volunteers get reminder emails before they serve, sent on a schedule or by hand, with a preview first.
- Optional confirmations
- Turn on "Ask volunteers to confirm" and each reminder carries a link the volunteer clicks to confirm. It is off by default.
- Shareable schedule link
- Share a public link to the schedule. Volunteers see the upcoming dates and can offer to take an open slot without an account.
- Families and households
- A parent can be the contact for children who serve, so the family's reminders go to one person.
- AI assistant for coordinators
- Ask in plain language what is covered, who is next in a rotation, or to change events, roles, rotations and volunteers. The assistant proposes each change and you approve it.
- Password-free sign-in
- Coordinators sign in with a one-time code sent to their email. Volunteers never need to sign in.

- Forms builder
- Check-in kiosk
