Building world-class product with world-class people
TeamKinetic uses technology to facilitate and enhance a universal good; volunteering. Community and collaboration are the backbone of what we do, from how TeamKinetic systems can be interlinked, to the work we do to support the sector.
Offering funded volunteer engagement software
Offering funded volunteer engagement software is just one of the ways that we allow third-sector organisations of all sizes to have access to the best digital tools and fulfil their potential.
Since TeamKinetic was founded in 2007, our commitment to giving back to the sector has resulted in many sponsorships, partnerships and initiatives. Read on below to find out more about our history.
