Deed now integrates with Microsoft Teams!

As the first enterprise workplace giving platform to offer this integration, we’re making it even easier for employees to stay informed and engaged. Just like with our Slack integration, your team can now receive automated notifications in Teams about:

•  Upcoming campaigns and key milestones
•  Volunteer event reminders and last-minute opportunities
•  Personal event sign-ups and updates

And for administrators and channel owners, we've included powerful management features:

•  Channel owner controls to delete any auto-generated Teams posts created by the integration
•  Automatic clean-up that removes Teams content when Deed campaigns are deleted
