Years ago, I used TidyHQ for a similar purpose. I ran a large student group as an undergrad. They have a free tier that looks like it would work for you.

EXTERNAL MESSAGE

Another point for Wild Apricot from me.
I've worked with it behind the scenes as part of the North Carolina Library Association and our local UXPA chapter. The UXPA chapter did an extensive look at competing products a few years ago and didn't find anything with a comparable feature set & price.

WA is a little clunky but it gets the job done.

Second Wild Apricot. My spouse implemented it for a wildlife preservation
group she manages and has good things to say about it.
