This video provides a comprehensive overview of the Dollars for Doers International extension pack available through Bonterra's CyberGrants platform. The extension enables administrators to create both domestic and international donor-facing Dollars for Doers programs where employees can convert their volunteer hours into monetary grants for charitable organizations. Key components include a specialized portlet that displays on the Volunteerism page, customizable eligibility criteria for grant redemption, and different application flows based on the donor's country. The extension features automatic calculations for hour-to-currency conversions and enforces program rules such as minimum hours requirements, hour limits, and available balances.
The extension pack implementation follows a structured methodology that ensures proper functionality while maintaining system integrity. For international programs, donors are directed to country-specific grant applications based on their profile location (US, Canada, or International), with appropriate currency handling and organization eligibility checks. Before submitting applications, the system verifies multiple eligibility criteria including program balance, available logged hours, and redemption thresholds. To proceed with implementing this extension pack, clients should be prepared to participate in comprehensive User Acceptance Testing (UAT) and provide formal approval before deployment to production. For more information or to add this extension, please contact your assigned Project Manager.
