Withdrawing from Events

How to remove yourself from a scheduled event assignment.

If your plans change and you can no longer serve at an event you're scheduled for, you can withdraw from the assignment.

How to Withdraw

  1. Navigate to My Events in the left sidebar under "My Volunteering."
  2. Find the event you need to withdraw from.
  3. Click the Withdraw button on the assignment card.
  4. A confirmation dialog will appear showing the event name and date. Confirm your withdrawal.

You'll see a confirmation message and the assignment will be removed from your list.

What Happens After You Withdraw

  • Your slot becomes an unfilled position for that event occurrence.
  • An administrator will be able to see the opening on the Reports page and can assign another volunteer.
  • Your withdrawal does not affect any other events or future occurrences of recurring events.

Tips

  • Withdraw as early as possible to give administrators time to find a replacement.
  • If you know about a conflict in advance, consider setting your availability instead — this prevents you from being scheduled in the first place.
  • If you need to withdraw from multiple events, it may be easier to set unavailable dates on the Availability page.
