Description
#### Background of your organization.
We’re Habitat for Humanity of Metro Denver. We work to build homes, community and hope in the Denver area by partnering with local families and volunteers to build and repair homes. [More about us](https://www.habitatmetrodenver.org/about-us/mission-history/).
#### Brief description of the project OR need (we can discuss/define the project if you have a need).
We use a program called VolunteerHub to schedule volunteers, and then we have a Google Sheet that is our “Master Volunteer Schedule.” We have hundreds of volunteers each week, and I spend a lot of time manually checking VolunteerHub and updating the numbers of people who have signed up in the Google Sheet. What I want is to connect VolunteerHub (they have an API) with the Google Sheet so that the numbers automatically update. I spent several hours trying to figure it out over the weekend, but I’m in a little over my head. I’d love to figure out how to do it but could just use some help.
#### How the project will be utilized to benefit the community and your organization.
It would be hugely beneficial to our supervisors to have a more accurate, real-time picture of what their numbers will look like for upcoming weeks. That would enable us to create a better volunteer experience. And it would allow me to spend more time connecting with volunteers and less time making these updates.
#### Definition of done or description of completed project (aka end result).
Our master schedule shows volunteer signups in real time (or is updated every hour or something).
