Need to remind everyone about Saturday's event, or thank your whole team at once? Broadcast sends a single message to all of your volunteers by email — no more copy-pasting into a hundred separate threads. It's a free perk, part of making VolunteerBadge the one place you run your whole volunteer program.
Send a broadcast
- Open Messages and click the Broadcast button (the radio icon) in the header — or go to Free Perks → Broadcast.
- You'll see how many volunteers will receive it. Add an optional subject and write your message.
- Click Review & send, confirm, and it goes out — branded with your organization's name and logo, with a link back to each volunteer's portal.
Who receives it
Send a video or voice message to your whole team
Want your volunteers to see your face, not just read text? Click “Add a video or voice message” and record right in your browser (or upload a clip). It goes out with your broadcast as a prominent “Watch the video message” button that opens a secure, organization-branded playback page — the clip itself lives in private, encrypted storage and streams through a short-lived link, never a public URL. It's a powerful, personal way to rally your team before a big event.
What about text messages?
Broadcast is email-only for now. SMS broadcasts are on the way once per-volunteer text consent is in place — sending marketing/reminder texts without consent isn't allowed under carrier (A2P 10DLC) and TCPA rules, and we build the compliant way first.
