Hey community - our PTA is bringing back a school readathon after a few years, and we no longer have budget for a platform to manage. They all seem to take a pretty hardcore fee.

Is there an open-source alternative to something like this? https://www.read-a-thon.com/ Thanks!

What is a readathon? You might be able to chain a few different tools together/ repurpose one that's not necessarily for a readathon

Back in the day you had a sheet of paper and a parent signature…

Open colletive is pretty good for donations. Someone might have or might be able to tie that a reading list and tracking. I don't know if anything like that myself though at the moment.
