We’re excited to share that Hometown has been named a Top Innovative School District Tech Leader of 2025 by Education Technology Insights magazine.
This annual list recognizes education-focused technology companies driving innovation and improving how schools operate and connect with their communities. Hometown was honored for its all-in-one platform that powers digital ticketing, online fundraising, and event-focused school websites, giving schools the tools they need to simplify operations and engage supporters.
Centralized Tools That Save Time and Strengthen Engagement
Education Technology Insights spotlights how Hometown supports school operations across three key solutions:
- Digital Ticketing & Event Access
From game days to concerts, Hometown’s digital ticketing solution, Box Office, helps schools sell, scan, and manage admission seamlessly. Built-in reporting and offline scanning give staff more control and flexibility at every event. - Online Fundraising with Schoolfundr
Hometown’s fundraising solution, Schoolfundr, gives schools the ability to launch and manage online campaigns for athletics, arts, clubs, and more. With a simple setup and no upfront costs, schools keep more of what they raise and engage supporters more effectively. - Branded Websites for Communication & Promotion
Through Hometown’s Engage solution, schools can launch a custom-branded website that puts schedules, events, ticket links, and program info in one accessible place. The platform is mobile-friendly, easy to update, and designed to strengthen the connection between schools and their communities.

- Save time for administrators and staff

That student-first, customer-centric focus is what truly sets Hometown apart,” said Dennis Levene, CEO of Hometown.
