Why schools choose Ownstory
We understand that educational memories are precious. That's why we've made it incredibly simple for school communities to collaborate, contribute, and create together — turning everyday moments into extraordinary keepsakes.
Private & Permanent
This isn't social media. No public feeds, no algorithms, no strangers. Your story stays private — only people you invite can see it. And it lasts forever, not just 24 hours.
Not like Instagram stories that vanish, or Facebook posts anyone can see.
Group Gift Built In
Pool money from the group, and let the birthday person pick the gift card they actually want. No more guessing, no more duplicate gifts. Delivered straight to their mobile wallet.
$5, $10, $50 — every bit counts
Amazon, Uber Eats, Apple, Spotify & more
