For PTA chairs, boosters, church coordinators

Start from a sentence. Not an empty grid.

Sign-up software hands you a blank table and leaves you to work out what to ask a hundred people for. Describe the event instead. Get the quantities, the packages they come in, and slots that add up.

Free to start, and there is no password to choose. Volunteers never need an account.

What comes back

Four things a blank table won't tell you.

01How much food 100 people actually eat, by the pound
02Which lines your group buys and which parents bring
0322 sign-up slots, each an amount one person can carry
04The four things that usually go wrong at this event

The difference

A sign-up sheet asks. This answers.

Sheet

“Bring toppings”

Here

“Shredded cheddar, 4 lb”

Sheet

You guess how much to ask for

Here

60 lb of potatoes for 100 people

The volunteer's side

What the volunteer gets: a link.

Text it or post it. She opens it on her phone, sees what is still missing with real amounts on it, and claims one with a name and an email. No account, no password, no app.

How it works

Four roles, and nobody has to learn software.

Your organization

Events belong to the PTA or booster club, not to whoever created them, so next year's chair inherits the lot.

Your committee

Admins manage the roster; members plan and publish events.

Everyone else

Volunteers claim from the link, and get one reminder 48 hours before.

Afterwards

Six taps the morning after. That's what makes the next event's numbers better than a catering guide's.

Where the numbers come from

A guess wears a dotted underline until you confirm it. We'd rather show you which numbers to check than pretend all of them are facts.

Describe your next event. Correct what's wrong. Send the link.
