Groups in Millie help employees connect around shared interests, causes, locations, or identities. Whether you're leading an ERG, coordinating a giving circle, or rallying a team around a campaign, you can create a Group page that brings it all together.
Here’s how to set one up:
Step 1: Group Details
Start by filling in the core information for your group:
- Group Name – What’s the name of your group?
- Group Section – Choose which section (e.g., ERGs, Offices, Teams) this group will appear under
- Logo Image – Upload a square logo that represents your group
- Banner Image – Add a banner (like a header image) for the top of your group page
Step 2: Description & Storytelling
Let people know what your group is about!
- Short Description – A quick one-liner that shows up in previews
- Full Description – A more detailed explanation of your group’s mission, purpose, or goals
- Teams Channel Link or Slack Channel Link (optional) – Add a Microsoft Teams channel URL if your group uses Teams to connect or Slack Link
Step 3: Highlights
Add stories and moments that show your group’s impact. Each highlight can include:
- A photo or image
- A personal quote or message
- A description of the event, moment, or member story
Example:
“I’m Jay, and I’m so excited about everything we’ve done this year at Fly With Pride. I want to share a bit of my story to kick off our quarterly Tapas Nights…”
Click + Add Highlight to include as many as you'd like.
Step 4: Stats
Showcase key group stats that highlight your engagement or impact. These can be simple metrics that help tell your story.
Example:
82% of HelloFly colleagues attended at least one of our lunch & learns this year.

Step 5: Resources
Share relevant links with your group:
- Add a URL
- Include a Label (title of the resource)
- Add a Description (what it’s about)
Example:
- Label: LGBTQ+ Allyship Guide
- URL: https://example.com/allyship
- Description: A short guide to inclusive language and support
Click + Add Resource to include multiple resources.
Step 6: Nonprofits You Love
Spotlight nonprofits your group is passionate about. Use the search tool to find and add them to your group page.
Click + Add Nonprofit to include more.
Step 7: Events & Campaigns
You don’t need to manually add these! Any event or campaign that’s assigned to your group via the event or campaign builder will automatically show up on your group page.
Step 8: Activity Feed
Turn this on if you want to allow members to share photos, messages, or updates directly on the group page.
Just check the Include Activity Feed option to enable it.
Step 9: Save Your Draft
Click Create Draft to save your progress at any time. You can come back to it before publishing.
Once everything looks good, your group page will include:
- What’s Happening: Live events and campaigns
- Highlights and stats
- Resources
- Nonprofits your group supports
- A member feed (if enabled)
