Examples

landing page

Landing Page

Samaritan provides 2 different “templates” [photo slider] [traditional] that govern how your volunteer functionality appears. Each of these will have your logo and search preferences. Both include a Volunteer Dashboard that allows them to review personal schedules, report hours, take surveys and edit their profile data. If you’d like us to build the same – and more – functions directly into your website and domain we do that too (see ‘Custom Layout’ below).

Custom Layout

Samaritan’s Professional edition (PRO) is for customers that require our functionality built-in to their existing websites, graphics and navigation. You and your web team will have 100% control over when, how and where our functions are presented to the public. We can also allow you to control the interaction, host the system and manage all other software functions. Samaritan PRO is utilized by organizations such as the Smithsonian Institution, multiple community rescue missions, and the state governments of CA, VA, TX, OK, and NV.

Here are recent examples of PRO customers:
[Neighborhood Centers Inc.] Long Beach BLAST (mentoring)

search

Opportunity Search

All editions of our software allow your volunteers to search by proximity, key word and a custom set of links for targeted programs, trainings or partners. As shown in the example from Neighborhood Centers Inc., above, our PRO customers can utilize multiple search options customized to their programs. Searching by date ranges, attributes, pre-requisites, credentialing requirements and other options are also available at no charge..

Volunteer Dashboard

All editions of our software include a volunteer dashboard that they can use to find new opportunities, review personal schedules, report hours, take surveys and monitor personal progress towards your objectives. Their schedule commitments can also appear on personal calendars in other software. Samaritan automatically sends reminders about upcoming shifts and supports group leader, group member, individual, episodic, training and event-style scheduling.

surveys

Surveys

Volunteers can always report hours through your website, kiosks or their own smartphones but if you need to ask additional questions related to their service or training curriculum we can present these to them at the same time. Any question you create can be attached to any survey which, itself, can be attached to any opportunity or campaign. As a side note on hours reporting, our new Advanced Sign-in Module also has roster-based, QR-code and GPS automated sign-in support.

Custom Workflow

If you need volunteers to view only a specific set of privately-published opportunities, follow a custom on-boarding process, complete “intelligent” forms or be automatically shared with various managers, affiliates, events, trainings or affiliates just let us know during the implementation process. We also support pre-requisite management, LIVE criminal background checking (built-in!) and the enforcement of decisions you make based on these.

custom-registration

Custom Registration

Our Standard and PRO customers can design their own registration forms. We inherently support drop-down menu’s, radio buttons, user-defined fields, instructional text and many other types. Dynamic logic (where fields appear based on previous answers), language fluency, multi-language translation and support for individuals with disabilities (“Section 508”) are included by default. All Samaritan forms and functions are inherently mobile friendly.
