Best Practices for Opportunity Photos

Why photos matter:

  • Makes your Opportunity look vibrant and attractive for prospective volunteers—they'll sign up more!
  • Gives them a sense of what they'll be doing—they'll be in the right frame of mind when they arrive!

Tips for the best images:

  • Use horizontal photos (16:9 aspect ratio works best)
  • Choose colorful but not overwhelming images
  • Show volunteers what they will be doing—give them a clear idea of their role in your Opportunity
  • Avoid logos or marketing materials, as they can get cropped

Example: Here is a great photo for a Food Service opportunity:

Example: Here is an insufficient photo for any Opportunity:

It's a pretty logo—but you have no idea what's happening at the Opportunity!
