Delegated Collector
This is useful information for Foodbanks, Donors and charities.
Description
Foodiverse has the OPTIONAL ability to assign food donations to individuals that are representing charities so that volunteers who do not have a direct association with a charity, can collect food on their behalf and on the behalf of multiple charities. This allows additional opportunities for food banks to schedule collections using its own volunteer network, perhaps when charities have limited resources.
