OurVolts changes name to Track It Forward! | Track It Forward

OurVolts is Now Track It Forward!

Written by James McBryan

We are excited to announce that we are changing the name of our service to Track it Forward! After almost five years of operating as "Our Volunteer OnLine Tracking System (OurVOLTS) we are moving to a name that more accurately reflects the ways that organizations are tracking the impact of volunteers.

Track it Forward is more than just about time

In the last 12 months, we've rolled out features for event scheduling, mileage tracking, donation tracking, and much more. We have seen organizations such as Impact Hub Oakland use Track it Forward to implement a work-trade membership system for their coworking space. The Georgia State Parks are giving membership benefits to volunteers who help to maintain campsites - and using our system to track this work. We've seen churches and refugee relief organizations track education hours and the number of people helped. We are seeing civic clean-up groups measure the amount of trash removed from parks, lakes, and streets.

What does this mean for you?

We are working to make this change as seamless as possible for our customers and community. The following are important things to be aware of:

  • We are changing the site domain to trackitforward.com
  • All of your old ourvolts.com URL's, embedded forms, and pages will continue to work
  • Your invoices, receipts and contracts will still be from OurVolts LLC
  • All the ourvolts.com emails you are using to reach us will continue to work
  • Over time, all of the text that says "OurVolts" will change to "Track it Forward"
