The group discussion feature in VC can make your volunteer experience much easier in several different ways. Some examples include:
- Coming together on meeting details
- Come together on the date, time, and location
- Determine topics
- Who will bring/do what
- Questions
- Ask teammates for information material you may be missing
- Ask if any teammates are available to cover a shift for you
- Ask about sharing a ride to a meeting or training
- Planning a party
- Come together on date, time, location
- If carry in, who will bring what
- Who can bring tables, chairs, tents
The possibilities of how this tool can be used are endless.
