Make proposals easier to follow
Share an initiative with the background members need before they add input or take part in a decision.
Solutions
Keep your nonprofit community connected to the work
For a small nonprofit or volunteer-led committee, the hardest part is often not having ideas. It is making sure the people who care can see the proposal, give input, understand the decision, and act on the next step.
The challenge
Important nonprofit decisions can get lost in everyday communication
When decisions are spread across inboxes, meeting notes, and several chat threads, staff, volunteers, and members can lose the context needed to participate. Organizers then have less time for the mission and more time reconstructing history.
RuleTogether offers a shared place to organize participation around the initiatives, rules, events, and funding priorities a group is already working on.
How RuleTogether helps
Practical tools for the work your group is doing
Include members and volunteers
Let people stay informed and participate when an issue matters without relying on constant meetings.
Discuss funding priorities openly
Use budget proposals and shared views to support clear communication about priorities when the budget feature is enabled.
Example workflow

This is an example. Every community chooses the process that fits its own needs.
- A committee posts an idea for a new community program.
- Members and volunteers review the purpose, cost, and tradeoffs.
- The group gathers input and votes if its process calls for it.
- The decision informs the related budget priority or event plan.

Questions and answers
Common questions
Is RuleTogether a nonprofit CRM?
No. RuleTogether is not a CRM, fundraising system, or donor database. It is a space for organizing group participation and decisions.
Can a nonprofit discuss budget priorities here?
Yes. Communities with the budget feature enabled can use budget proposals, discussion, voting, and shared views to communicate priorities.
Does RuleTogether provide board-governance compliance?
No. Nonprofits remain responsible for their own board procedures, records, notices, and legal obligations.
Can volunteers participate without attending every meeting?
Members can review shared information and take part through the community when they have access and an issue requires their input.
