Creating and Editing an Organization Page

Note: Only users who are signed in with admin privileges are able to view this section of JustServe.

Organizations are an important part of JustServe. When projects are linked to organizations, it gives both the project and the organization more exposure. Having an organization page also gives volunteers more information. In this section, you can learn the process of creating and editing an organization page. 

Step 1 – Creating an organization page   
Step 2 – Adding your organization’s address on JustServe 
Step 3 – Entering organization’s information
Step 4 – Editing your organization

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Step 1 – Creating an Organization Page  

In this first step, you will set up your organization name and administrators. 

1. Go to your Administration dashboard. You can access it by clicking your name in the upper-right corner of any page.

2. In the drop-down menu, click on “Administration.”

3. Click “Manage Organizations.”

4. Click “+ add organization” in the blue box on the right side of the page.

5. Type the name of your organization in the first field.

6. Click the green arrow to submit the name. 

Step 2 – Adding your organization’s address on JustServe

In the second step you will add your organization’s address on the JustServe website. Your address on JustServe is a place within the JustServe website for volunteers to read more about your organization. You will see a recommended URL (address) near the bottom of the “Your Spot on JustServe” screen that will be used for your organization. 

1.    You can change the URL at this point while you are setting up your organization, but you will not be able to change it later.  This URL is required and is used to take the viewer to your organization page that you are creating within the JustServe website. Your URL must be lower case. If you try to enter uppercase letters, they will automatically revert to lower case.

2.    If you have decided to keep the recommended one shown, click “Next” If you would like to change your URL, you can edit it now by clicking on it.

4.    If you have typed in a different URL, click the green arrow.

5.    You will see a confirmation message pop-up asking you if the URL looks correct. If you approve of it, click “Approve”.

6.    If you would like to change it, click “Change”,  and you’ll be taken back to the prior screen to enter a different URL.

7.    click “Next” to finalize the URL of your organization.

You will have an opportunity on the next screen to add a separate URL that will take volunteers to your organization’s website (this is not the URL referenced above).

Step 3 – Entering organization information

On the third step, you will add your organization’s information such as contact name, phone number, email address, website, and other social media hyperlinks. 

1.    Upload a photo/logo – See “Upload an Image” in the Help Center(A).

2.    Upload a background image – See “Upload an Image” in the Help Center(B).

3.    Enter a description about the organization in the field on the left side. There is a limit of 300 characters in this space. This field is required(C).  

4.    Click on “Click Here to add a Location” (D).  Note: This is a button that is easy to overlook, but it is required, so don’t overlook it.

• Type in the address of the organization.
• Click Verify Address.
• Click on the bubble next to the correct address.
• Then click “Continue”. If the address does not show up on the options, click “Cancel” and enter an address of a nearby location. This field is required.

9. Continue to enter the rest of the information for the organization, including the name of a contact person(E) for the organization who can answer questions about projects. This field is required. Enter the phone number and an email address(F) for the contact person. These fields are required.

10. Enter the organization’s website(G), if you’d like to provide it.

11. You may include social media hyperlinks(H) used by the organization in the fields on the left side.

12. When you are finished entering information in the required fields, click “Create”(I).

Step 4 – Editing your organization

You can edit your organization from the “Administration” dashboard. Do this by going to “Manage Organizations”, clicking on the three dots on the right, and clicking “Edit Organization Page”.

Here you can:

• Manage your association to a volunteer center by clicking on the “Manage Endorsements” button. Here you may request your organization to be linked to a volunteer center.
• Create an announcement by clicking on “+ add announcement” near the bottom of the page. Here you can create an announcement, title, and add a picture to go on your organization page.
• Edit your page. Do this by clicking “+ edit org” at the very top of the page in the center. From here, you can change anything you added when you first created your page, besides the URL. You can also add an announcement here.
