Turning Trail Work Into Measurable Impact: Trailfunds in Action

Webinar Outline

This webinar is a continuation of the June 25, 2026 webinar Turning Trail Work Into Measurable Impact.
Following the introductory Trailfunds webinar, this session takes a practical, hands-on look at how organizations are using the platform to plan, document, and communicate stewardship work.
Rather than focusing on the challenges facing stewardship organizations, this webinar will dive directly into the application’s workflows through a combination of live demonstrations, screen recordings, and real-world examples from organizations currently piloting Trailfunds.
Attendees will see how Trailfunds supports the complete stewardship lifecycle, including project planning, volunteer events, field reporting, geospatial documentation, impact visualization, and organizational reporting.
Featured examples will include current pilot implementations with the Pennsylvania Parks and Forests Foundation (PPFF), San Luis Valley Great Outdoors (SLV GO), and Corvus Consulting, demonstrating how the same platform can support nonprofit stewardship organizations, volunteer programs, and environmental consulting work.
Topics will include:

Creating and managing stewardship projects
Volunteer event planning and participant management
Mobile field reporting and offline workflows
Mapping trails, work locations, and completed stewardship activities
Collecting standardized field observations with photos and GPS
Internal documentation versus external agency reporting
Measuring stewardship impact through dashboards and geospatial visualization
Lessons learned from active pilot organizations
A look at upcoming capabilities and the future direction of the platform

This session is intended for organizations that want a deeper technical understanding of how Trailfunds can streamline stewardship operations while producing more useful data for staff, partners, funders, and land managers.
Learning Objectives:

Demonstrate the core workflows of the Trailfunds platform.
Participants will identify how to create and manage stewardship projects, coordinate volunteer events, document field activities, and organize stewardship data using Trailfunds.
