The Announcement Tool allows owners and admins to send important updates to all members of their District. Announcements appear on the homepage and can also be sent via email if enabled.

How to Create an Announcement

  1. Go to Your District Homepage.

  2. Click the three dots next to the member count.

  3. Select "New Announcement."

  4. Enter your Announcement Title and Details.

  5. Important: To ensure all members receive an email notification, check "Send a notification to all members."

    • If this option is not selected, the announcement will only send a push notification when posted.

  6. Click 'Post' Announcement.

Announcements FAQ

  • How to Clear an Announcement:

    1. Click the three dots next to the member count.

    2. Select "Clear Announcement."

  • Can Announcements Be Edited?

    • No, not yet. Once posted, announcements cannot be edited. If changes are needed, you will need to create a new announcement.

  • Who Can Make Announcements?
