Optionally, you can choose the desired role for the invited members. GitHub offers three roles for organization members: "Member," "Owner," for free accounts.

Click on the "Send invitation" button. GitHub will send out invitations to the specified email addresses, or if the users are already GitHub users, they will receive notifications on their accounts. Invited members will receive an email notification with a link to accept the invitation. If they are already GitHub users, they can accept the invitation by visiting their notifications or organization settings. Once the invited members accept the invitation, they will become part of the organization with the assigned role and associated permissions.
