# Creating Slack channels

{% embed url="<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TlxzYj4lBZI>" %}

**Why it’s important:** At [KindCause.org](/about/kindcause.org.md), we create separate channels to manage the projects and better communicate with our volunteers. Channels are a great way to bring order and clarity to your team's work by bringing together the right people, information, and tools in one place. By creating channels, we can seamlessly work together with your teammates, ensuring everyone has access to the right information and resources they need.&#x20;

**How to create channels:**&#x20;

* To create a channel, simply click on the "**Channels**" option in your sidebar and hover over "**Create**."&#x20;
* Then, click on "**Create Channel**."&#x20;
* **Give your channel a name** and, if you'd like, add a description to help others understand its purpose. You can also choose to make the channel private if you want it to be visible only to invited members. Once you've filled in the details, click "Create."
* **After creating the channel, you can invite others to join and collaborate with you on your project.**&#x20;
