Readathon software for elementary schools.
PagePledge helps elementary schools run a readathon without stitching together paper pledge forms, spreadsheets, parent emails, and manual donation tracking.
Built around classrooms, families, and school offices.
Elementary readathons have a lot of moving pieces: students bring sheets home, parents activate accounts, teachers log reading, donors give by card, and the school office needs totals that are actually current.
PagePledge keeps those workflows connected. School admins can import classrooms, teachers can see their own students, families get QR-coded take-home sheets, and donor payments are processed online.
What schools usually need from elementary readathon software.
Easy parent start
Families can scan a QR code, activate their child, and share the donation page without creating a complicated account first.
Classroom visibility
Teachers can log group reading time and see classroom progress without asking the office for another spreadsheet.
Donation reporting
School admins can see donation totals, payment status, student pages, and campaign progress from the dashboard.
Designed for school-run campaigns, not percentage fees.
PagePledge is focused on helping the school keep the fundraiser organized while funds go through the school's own Square account. During the pilot, PagePledge does not take a percentage platform fee from donations.
That makes it easier to run a practical school fundraiser and explain fees clearly to families.
FAQ
Can elementary students use PagePledge themselves?
The student page is public-facing, but the parent and teacher workflows are designed for adults. Parents and teachers log reading minutes for younger students.
Does every student get a donation page?
Yes. Each imported student gets a shareable page for donations, plus a take-home sheet with a QR code.
Are student donation pages indexable by Google?
No. Student donation pages are marked noindex so they are shareable by link but not intended for search results.
