For communities, clubs and congregations
Your community, one text away.
CommunityText handles SMS opt-in, announcements, reminders and volunteer scheduling in one place. Everyone opts in with their permission, so the right people hear from you at the right time.
What it does
-
Consent you can show
People opt in with a double confirmation, and each consent is recorded in an audit trail.
-
Broadcasts and reminders
Send an announcement now or schedule it, and set up automated reminders ahead of events.
-
Volunteer scheduling
Organize teams and rosters, assign people to events, and collect confirmations by text.
-
Your name, your look
Each organization gets its own branding on the pages its members see.
-
STOP and HELP handled
Replying STOP opts a person out and HELP gets them help information. Opt-outs are respected automatically.
How it works
-
People opt in
Someone joins a list from your sign-up page and confirms with a code sent to their phone.
-
You choose who hears what
Pick a list or a volunteer team, write your message, and send it now or on a schedule.
-
It goes out, politely
Messages respect quiet hours and anyone who has opted out, and replies like STOP are honored.
Simple pricing
For nonprofits
$10 / month + the texts you send
That covers your own texting number, the sign-up pages and the admin tools. You pay for the messages you send at cost, exactly what the carrier and our messaging provider charge, with no markup. There are no tiers and no message bundles to outgrow.
Any church or community group that is a 501(c)(3) qualifies. Churches do not need an IRS determination letter. We check eligibility once, when you sign up.
Example: 1,000 messages in a month
| Monthly fee | $10.00 |
|---|---|
| 1,000 messages at about $0.02 each | $20.00 |
| Estimated total | $30.00 |
This is an estimate, not a quote. It uses the cost per message we pay today (about 2 cents, as of October 2026). Carrier fees can change, and longer messages cost more than one part.
Other organizations: get in touch and we will work out a plan.
Privacy and trust
- Phone numbers are encrypted at rest.
- Numbers are never sold.
- Every opt-in and opt-out is recorded, so you can show who agreed to what, and when.
- Admins sign in with a protected account, and sensitive actions such as revealing a number are logged.
