Hello, Volunteers!
We want to let you know that the JFCS Galaxy Digital App has a new name—it is now called Causer. You can use this app to record your volunteer hours, sign up for events, and view your schedule (if your volunteer work is scheduled in the system).
Getting Started
- Open the App Store on your smartphone.
- Search for "Causer- Get Connected"
- Download and install the app.
- Open the app.
When you open the app for the first time, enter your email and a second page will populate asking for your password. After that, the app will remember you, so you won’t need to enter your password again unless you log out.
How to Record Your Volunteer Hours
Once you are logged in, the app will take you to your dashboard.
To begin, tap the three lines (☰) in the upper left corner.
Option 1: "Add Hours"
- Tap "Add Hours."
- Choose your volunteer role from the list. (You will only see opportunities assigned to you.)
- Select the matching user group and tap Continue.
- Enter the date you volunteered and the hours you worked.
- If required, enter a client name. (Only for Friendly Visitor, Personal Shopper, Tech Support, or Handyman volunteers—otherwise, type "N/A.")
- Tap Submit. That’s it!
Option 2: "Schedule" to Check In & Out
You can also log your time by using the "Schedule" feature:
- Go to "Schedule."
- Tap "Check In" when you begin your volunteer time.
- When finished, tap "Check Out."
