A Good Volunteering Dashboard = A Good First Impression
This post reviews best practice tips on how to make your Blackbaud Employee Volunteering dashboard really pop! Help drive employees to participate in volunteer events, record their hours and see all of the great community events happening throughout your corporation.

How? With a gripping dashboard!
