|---|---|
| Description: Summary | Limited to 254 characters, this short description is displayed on the Organizations List in the platform. Make this interesting – this may be the first place a potential new member learns about your organization. |
| Description: Full description | This area can be as detailed as you want it to be. This description is meant to showcase who your organization is and can serve as a webpage for your organization. This area can include video via YouTube or Vimeo. |
| Profile picture | This image will be small throughout the platform. Most organizations will use the organization's logo. |
