Expand your reach by promoting your volunteer listing
What is a Promoted Volunteer Listing?
A Promoted Volunteer Listing is a volunteer opportunity for US-based nonprofits that receives expanded visibility on Idealist for up to 90 days. These listings appear more prominently in search results and are shown to users beyond the standard location radius, helping organizations attract greater volunteer interest and engagement.
What are the benefits of having Promoted Volunteer Listings?
- Expanded Reach Options
- You can choose how broadly your listing is shared with potential volunteers by selecting a coverage area—5, 15, or 50 miles from your location, or nationwide.
- Increased Visibility
- Your volunteer listing will be highlighted with a 'Featured' label that seekers can easily spot, and will appear at the top of the first page in search results for increased visibility.
- Extended Promotion Period
- Your listing stays highlighted for up to 90 days, helping it reach and attract qualified volunteers.
