Community project work lists
Simple Project Task Lists for Service Organizations
Turnboards gives small service clubs and nonprofits a shared list for community projects, committee follow-up, fundraisers, and event preparation.
Create one board for the project, capture the next actions during a meeting, and assign work to members who have joined the organization in Turnboards.

Give Each Project or Committee Its Own Board
Fundraisers, food drives, scholarship work, facility tasks, and membership projects need different lists. Boards keep those next steps from becoming one long set of meeting minutes.
- Create a board for a fundraiser, committee, service day, or annual program.
- Leave future ideas in Backlog and move this week's work into Active.
- Review one current board during a short planning meeting.
Turn Meeting Decisions Into Assigned Actions
Capture the concrete follow-up while people still remember what was decided.
- Add venue calls, supply pickups, sponsor follow-up, setup, cleanup, and thank-you notes.
- Assign tasks to officers, chairs, or members who already have access.
- Attach the contact detail or decision to the task that needs it.
Make the Next Meeting Start With the Current List
Completed tasks remain visible while Active work shows what still needs attention, reducing the need to reconstruct progress from email and texts.
- Filter work by assignment before the meeting.
- Move delayed ideas back to Backlog without deleting them.
- Keep practical notes where the next member can find them.
A concrete starting point
Example board: Saturday food drive
Use the wording your team already understands. A useful first board can be this small:
- Backlog — confirm final donation count
- Active — pick up folding tables
- Active — print volunteer station signs
- Complete — reserve community room
Turnboards coordinates tasks, not volunteer programs
Turnboards does not provide public volunteer signup, shift scheduling, background checks, mass email, donor records, attendance, or automated reminders. People must join the organization before tasks can be assigned to them.
Start With One Current Community Project
Create the project board, add three next actions, and invite the member who needs the list.
Turnboards is a shared work list, not a volunteer-management or donor-management platform.
