This feature is only available to the ProBono module. Before you can complete the following steps you will need to have set up the event already.

We understand that every pro bono or skilled volunteering program is unique and the way you present and engage your employees is important. This functionality allows you to present a single long term opportunity in the marketplace such as a weekend, a week, one month period or whatever end date your opportunity runs for without having to enter in multiple session dates to reflect the length of period of the opportunity!
