Contract it out.  Or attract people who are interested in making an open
source application.  What you are thinking of is a massive undertaking.

Web-based application design is even more complicated than desktop app
design.  Web development involves many different languages.  Requires a
working knowledge of:

- Python programming
- a web framework for processing events like Django or web2py or
something similar
- html
- css
- SQL
- Javascript, including jquery and probably others

To say nothing of the algorithms necessary to implement the trend
analysis you speak of.

Something tells me if the people you're trying to help have zero
discipline, then I don't think software is really going to help them.
Computers are just tools.
