From setup to fundraiser in one afternoon.
PagePledge helps you run your read-a-thon, from importing classrooms to collecting donations. Here’s what each person sees.
Set up and manage the read-a-thon
Principals and school admins use one dashboard to set up the campaign, import their roster, print take-home sheets, and track donations.
Create a campaign
Name it, set the dates and goals, and connect your school’s Square or Stripe account to receive donations.
Import the classrooms
Upload a CSV with student names and classrooms. Activation codes and QR-coded take-home sheets are generated automatically.
Print take-home sheets
Each student gets a page with their name, an activation code, and a QR code. Parents scan it to follow their student's reading.
Watch the dashboard
Live stats, leaderboards, rewards, and a transaction log. See every donation in real time.
Follow along and log reading at home
Parents scan the QR code on the take-home sheet, activate their child, and can log reading minutes and share the donation page with family.
Scan the QR code
The take-home sheet has a QR code that links straight to the activation page. Enter your email and you're in.
Track progress
See how much your child has raised, how many minutes they've read, and where they rank in their class.
Log reading minutes
After bedtime stories, log the minutes right from your phone. Teachers can also log classroom reading time.
Log in-class minutes and cheer your students on
Teachers sign in with a magic link to log reading time for the whole class at once and watch their classroom climb the leaderboard.
Sign in with your email
No password to remember. Enter your school email and click the magic link we send you.
Log in-class minutes
One screen, whole class. Pre-checked students, uncheck anyone absent, add a note, log it in seconds.
See your class climb
See classroom stats, the student leaderboard, and school-wide progress on one page.
Grandparents, family, and friends donate in 30 seconds
Parents share a link so donors can see the student’s progress and the school’s rewards. Donors can pay by card without creating an account.
See the student's page
A clean donation page showing who they're raising for, how the school is doing, and what rewards unlock as they hit each goal.
Donate with a card
Choose an amount and pay by card through Square or Stripe. Donors can cover the provider’s processing fees. PagePledge adds no transaction fees.

See who has earned each prize, mark it handed out, and print certificates for your students.
Know who still needs their prize
Set prizes for reading or fundraising milestones. Students appear in the prize tracker as they earn them. Teachers mark prizes handed out, and school admins can check what’s still waiting across classrooms.

Print a certificate for every reader
Download personalised certificates for one student, a classroom, or the whole school. Certificates celebrate participation and recognise top readers and fundraisers with award badges.
Schools keep what they raise
No percentage fees. A flat cost per campaign, known upfront. Donors can cover card processing so the school gets 100%.
Reading comes first
The whole point is getting students to read. We keep the fundraising mechanics out of the way so the focus stays on the books.
