The vision
Organize campaign communication,
learning, and apps in a central hub.
Volunteering should be as easy as logging on to social media.
Our vision is for a foundational platform, integrated with the entire civics ecosystem. Shire will act as an operating system, tying the pieces together and making them easy for volunteers and organizers to use.
By integrating with already-existing apps for actions like phone banking and texting, alongside our core Onboarding, Chat and Learning modules, volunteers can finally have a one-stop shop for digital volunteering.
We've officially partnered with Automattic, the team behind WordPress, to build integrations for volunteer onboarding and supporter data capture on WordPress sites.
