Group Events
Add relevant events to your group's page to encourage member participation. For example, a group focused on sustainability efforts can add events benefitting the environment.
Groups associated with an event or project appear on the Volunteer Opportunity page under Participating Groups. Users can select a group name to open its group page. This section appears only when an opportunity is associated with a group. Associated groups must be open and active, not hidden.
