Organization Basics


Absolutely! Simbi Organizations are ideal for anyone wanting a presence on Simbi that goes beyond their personal profile.

There are two types of Simbi Organizations: Non-profit and Professional. Non-profit "Worthy Cause" Organizations are free to create and operate, but are restricted to projects with a lofty social mission and a primary need for volunteers. Non-profit Orgs are empowered to reward their volunteers with Simbi Credits, and over time will become the "central banks" of the Simbi Community. Pro Organizations can represent a business, community group, club, or any other personal or group project, and do not require approval to create, but the Org is required to become a Simbi Supporter (minimum $10/mo or $100/yr contribution). Personal accounts on Simbi will always remain free.

All members only have one personal account. If you are the creator of one or more Organizations, you can manage them and log in to act "as" your organization(s) directly from your personal profile.

Other Simbi members can follow an Organization's activity and participate in chat on its profile, but only the member who created the Organization (or other admins they add) can edit it or moderate its activity.

Just like on the rest of Simbi! Find a request you can help with, or a service you want, and start a conversation with whomever offered it. Once you start chatting, you will be able to propose a deal and work something out. In general, Non-profit Organizations should have lots of standing requests for volunteer help.

Make sure you’re logged in to your personal Simbi account. In the top right menu, click on "Your Orgs" then Click the "View as..." or "Login" links to view or use Simbi under your Organization’s identity! If you use the "Login" option, you will need to log out and log back in to use your personal account again.


Starting Your Organization


If you would like to start your own Organization, you can do so directly from your personal account dashboard and choose whether to create it immedately by making your Organization a Simbi Supporter, or apply to become a Non-profit "Worthy Cause" Simbi Organization.

Once your Organization is created, you can create specific requests and services for it, and share those links anywhere you'd like!

Pro Organizations can represent a business, community group, club, or any other personal or group project, and do not require approval to create, but the Org is required to become a Simbi Supporter (minimum $10/mo or $100/yr contribution).

Simbi Organizations operate with the same URL structure as personal accounts: simbi.com/OrgName.


Maintenance & Features


All Organizations you've created are visible, editable, and available to switch to, directly from the Organizations dashboard in your personal profile.

Just like Simbi personal accounts, each Simbi Organization is fully under the control of its creator for all profile details, services, and requests. Additionally, Organization creators can also moderate messages on their Organizations' chat wall.

Organizations are in beta and you may find bugs! Don't hesitate to chat with our Support Team using the chat button on the bottom right corner!
