Every vote documented. Every voice counted.

Board votes with a transparent paper trail

Every resolution voted on in Chooseday has a permanent record — the motion, the options, the vote count, and the outcome. This is exactly what board minutes need. No reconstructing what was decided from someone's notes. The audit trail is automatic and timestamped.

Volunteer coordination at scale

When you need to coordinate volunteers across multiple locations or programs — which events to staff, which projects to prioritise — Chooseday makes it easy to collect structured input from a large group without a meeting. Set a link, share by email or WhatsApp, and get a structured result.

Ranked choice for genuine majority decisions

Nonprofit boards often have strong factions around different program priorities. Ranked choice voting ensures the winning option has genuine majority support — not just a plurality when votes are split between similar programs. This is especially important when resources are scarce and decisions carry real consequences.

Free plan for resource-constrained organisations

Chooseday's free plan gives nonprofits up to 5 active decisions with unlimited voters. Most boards and volunteer committees run well within that limit. There are no ads, no data selling, and no commitment — just a tool that makes your governance process better.

Nonprofit use cases
📑

Board resolutions

Create a decision for each resolution at a board meeting — or distribute votes before the meeting so board members have time to consider each motion. The result is documented automatically and can be exported for meeting minutes.

Governance records that hold up
🌟

Program prioritisation

When a nonprofit has more programs it could run than budget allows, a structured vote with dot voting lets every board member and key stakeholder express their priorities. The result surfaces the programs with the strongest collective support.

Mission-aligned resource allocation

Budget allocation votes

Before presenting a budget to the full board, run a dot vote on how to allocate discretionary funds. Each board member distributes their points across competing line items. The result gives the finance committee a clear steer on collective priorities.

Budgets the board actually endorses

Our board is 14 people across 3 countries. Getting everyone on the same Zoom for every decision was impossible. Chooseday lets us vote async, and the result is automatically in our records. It cut our governance overhead by at least 40%.

Frequently asked questions

Is Chooseday free for nonprofits?

Yes. Chooseday's free plan allows up to 5 active decisions at once, with unlimited voters per decision. Most small nonprofit boards and volunteer groups never need to upgrade. There are no ads and no credit card required.

Can boards use Chooseday for formal resolutions?

Yes. You can create a decision for each resolution, add a full description of the motion, and record the board vote. The result is documented with a timestamp — useful for meeting minutes and governance records. Individual votes can be made public or anonymous depending on your governance requirements.

How does Chooseday help with budget allocation votes?

For budget allocation where the board needs to prioritise programs, dot voting works well. Board members each have a set number of points to distribute across programs. The result shows where the board collectively wants to invest resources — a much richer data point than a single-choice majority vote.

Can Chooseday be used for ranked choice voting in board elections?

Yes. Ranked choice voting is available on all Chooseday plans. For board elections with multiple candidates and seats, ranked choice ensures the winner has genuine majority support rather than winning with a small plurality when votes are split between similar candidates.

Mission-driven decisions deserve a fair process.
