What is a Paperless PTO website? |
| A Paperless PTO website will raise funds for your parent teacher group without any effort from your executive board or volunteers. |
| A Paperless PTO website will also simplify all of the activities of your school's parent teacher group. |
| A Paperless PTO website is an online system built specifically for your school's parent teacher group. |
| |
We Run The Fundraising Program So You Don't Have To! |
| |
How Do Schools Automatically Raise Funds? |
| Each Paperless PTO website includes a fundraising mall that is managed by our staff every day. When your family members shop online, they can now raise funds for your school's PTO when they make purchases using the internet. |
| The Paperless PTO has partnered with dozens of merchants to make this unique fundraising opportunity available to your parent teacher group. All you need to do is have your website hosted by The Paperless PTO. |

Fundraising Is A Full Time Job! |
| |
We Build And Manage Your Online Fundraising Program. |
| An effective online fundraising program requires day in and day out effort. |
| We are in constant touch with the merchants who are continuously offering time limited sales and promotions to online buyers. Sales and promotions that are never offered in the actual stores and shops. It is our job to pass these specials on to your families for the benefit of your parent teacher group. |
| |
How does is work? |
| It is very simple. When your school's families visit your Paperless PTO website and click on a merchant link in the fundraising mall they will be directed to that merchant's website. If they make a purchase, the merchant will donate a portion of the purchase amount to the parent teacher group of your school. |
 |
| We also use other methods of reaching your families. Your Paperless PTO website includes a memberhsip database. When your families first visit your website they will have the option of registering to create an account. The more families that register, the methods of interacting with your families become greater and easier. |
| |
| The best part is that you don't have to worry about the details. We manage the entire fundraising program for you. |

Will this work for our school? |
| Of course it will. Some of the smallest parent teacher groups are raising thousands of dollars each year for their school. |
| Now do the math for your school community. If 10% of your families were to spend the average amounts noted above, that would generate a significant amount of funds raised for your school each year. |
| For as little as $25 per month your parent teacher group will easily raise thousands of dollars for your school each year. |
