Unsubscribing a Person From Bulk Texts and Emails

In Breeze, the "Do Not Text" option prevents a person from receiving mass texts, though individual messages can still be sent. To activate, edit their profile, select "Do Not Text" under more options in the contact section, and save. If a number is on multiple profiles, each must be marked. Similarly, "Do Not Email" stops bulk emails but not personal ones. Edit the profile, choose "Do Not Email" under more options for the email address, and save. Shared emails need this set on every profile to stop bulk emails.

Do Not Text

The Do Not Text functionality in Breeze is designed to exclude a person from receiving mass text communication from the organization using the Action Panel. People who do not want to receive bulk text messages sent through Breeze can mark their mobile number (or have an administrator mark their mobile number) as Do Not Text.

Do Not Text will not prevent individual texts from being sent to this person. Individual texts could include volunteer requests, reminders, or a message sent directly from the profile.

To mark a mobile number as Do Not Text, you'll need to block the person from receiving bulk texts sent out of Breeze:

  1. Navigate to a person's profile in Breeze.
  2. Click to edit the section their mobile number is in (Contact Section).
  3. Click Show More Options beneath the phone section.
  4. Select Do Not Text and save your changes.
1If a mobile number is shared / on multiple profiles, Do Not Text will need to be selected on every profile the mobile number appears on. Otherwise, it will still receive bulk emails. As texts are sent via profile and not phone numbers.
