See how to share events below! There are two primary ways to share: ### 1. Sharing Opportunities via the Web Platform When viewing the platform in a desktop or mobile browser, the sharing options are located directly on the event details page. **Steps:** 1. Navigate to the specific **Event Details Page** of the opportunity you wish to share. 2. Scroll down to the sharing section (usually located on the right-hand side). 3. You can then choose one of the following methods: - **Copy Link:** Copy and paste the unique opportunity link directly into any messaging app or document. - **Social Media Icons:** Select the corresponding icon to share directly to **Facebook**, **X (Twitter)**, **LinkedIn**, or via **Email**. ![Screenshot 2025-01-26 at 2.43.03 PM](https://support.pointapp.org/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202025-01-26%20at%202.43.03%20PM.png?width=688&height=368&name=Screenshot%202025-01-26%20at%202.43.03%20PM.png) ### 2. Sharing Opportunities via the Mobile App The sharing function in the mobile app is integrated directly into the navigation bar for quick access. **Steps:** 1. Open the **POINT Mobile App** and navigate to the **Event Details Page** for the opportunity. 2. Look for the **Share icon** (usually represented by an arrow pointing out of a box or three connected dots) located in the **top right corner** of the screen. 3. Tapping the Share icon will display the "Share" popup with several options: - **Facebook** - **LinkedIn** - **X** (Twitter) - **Copy** (to copy the link to your clipboard) ![](https://support.pointapp.org/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Nov-20-2025-10-29-20-3935-AM.png?width=470&height=1019&name=image-png-Nov-20-2025-10-29-20-3935-AM.png) This allows volunteers to quickly spread the word and help organizations recruit more support!
