Acolyte Scheduler
Read full descriptionHide full description
Acolyte is a simple, easy solution for Volunteer Management, primarily in church communities such as parishes or other religious organizations. We have designed Acolyte to be easy to use by all demographics to eliminate frustration on both the administrative and volunteer sides of scheduling events. Previously built with only one organization in mind, we have expanded and adapted Acolyte's simple features to apply to practically any organization that manages volunteers. If you think your community could use Acolyte, we would love to talk to you about bringing you on board!
