Hey, I hope this is the right community for this question :))

I volunteer at a local place, but they only communicate through a facebook group that I never check. My question is -

Is there a way to get a notification, whenever there's a new post in the group, hopefully through some FOSS :))

What type of organization is it? Could they be convinced to provide an alternative in the fediverse?

maybe - it's my local circus and they're very nice - the thing is, a lot of the other volunteers are not tech savvy, and likely won't change to a new platform unless a lot of energy is put into making the transition easy - but it might be a project for the future :))

Can you DM a bit more details? Depending on their size and budget, I can help. I can host their own Mastodon/Matrix server for less than $30/month and provide the tech support to the transition.
