9 Potent and Creative PTA Fundraising Ideas

PTA's, or Parent Teacher Associations, are school-based organizations dedicated to making schools a better place for children to learn and spend time in. School PTA's are usually associated with the national PTA, whilst PTOs (Parent Teacher Organizations) generally serve the same purpose but are independent.

PTA's are essential for an engaged school environment and a healthy school climate. Some research even shows that students perform better when their parents are actively involved in their schools. Some schools with active PTA's also see a rise in attendance.

There are other benefits to active and sustainable PTAs. Students have more interactions with adult role models and teachers’ workloads get reduced. Teachers also get more space to focus on the curriculum. In addition to that, the additional human and financial resources allow for more innovative projects and activities to get organized.

PTA's vary in size and in the budget available to them. However, whatever their financial situation, most PTA's still need to fund-raise to achieve their goals and objectives.
There are many things PTA's can raise funds towards. Your association might want to raise funds to build a new sports facility or a daycare center. Perhaps they need funds for an educational field trip or an extracurricular activity.
