About pto grants
PTO grants help Parent-Teacher Organizations, PTAs, and school support groups fund classroom resources, enrichment, technology, family engagement, and student programs beyond the regular school budget. Funding comes from national bodies like National PTA, corporate giving programs from companies such as Target, Lowe's, and State Farm, local educational and community foundations, and state education agencies. Awards commonly support STEM, the arts, healthy lifestyles, and digital safety initiatives.
A long list is the starting point, not the shortlist. Our grant prospecting guide shows how to narrow parent-teacher organization grants down to the funders most likely to say yes, using their giving records.

What PTO grants are available?
PTO and PTA grants fund classroom supplies, technology, family engagement, arts and STEM enrichment, healthy-lifestyle programs, and capacity building. National PTA offers grants and awards to local units across areas such as STEM, the arts, and student engagement, while corporate and foundation grants support specific school projects. Awards range from small classroom mini-grants to larger awards for multi-year or district-wide initiatives.
Which organizations fund PTOs and PTAs?
Funding for PTOs and PTAs comes from National PTA grant and award programs, corporate social responsibility programs from companies like Target, Lowe's, and State Farm, and local educational and community foundations. Government education agencies also offer occasional grants accessible through state departments of education and Grants.gov. Because corporate grants are popular and competitive, many groups combine several smaller funding sources.
How can a PTO apply for grants?
Start by clarifying your project and confirming your group's eligibility, since some grants are open only to PTAs affiliated with National PTA while others accept any parent-teacher organization, school foundation, or nonprofit support group. Search corporate giving pages, National PTA programs, local community foundations, and your state department of education for matching opportunities.
