How the PTA raises funds

  • Becoming a PTA Member

    When you become a member of the PTA you support Dranesville Elementary directly and support education for every child through support of the Virginia and National PTA. Membership is only $15.

  • Direct Parent Donations

    The most efficient and most impactful way to support the PTA is through a direct donation. 100% of your donation will be used toward supporting our initiatives.

  • Corporate Sponsorships

    The PTA partners with interested businesses in the community to raise awareness of their support for Dranesville and they in turn fund the efforts at the school. For business owners, this is a wonderful opportunity to get your brand exposed to the hundreds of families at Dranesville. For Dranesville families, it’s a great opportunity to learn about and support the local businesses that make our community so vibrant.

  • Business Partnerships

    Many large companies offer cash back to a school for the loyalty of their parents. Stores include Harris Teeter, Giant, and even Amazon. All parents must do is register and a portion of their purchase is directed to support the school.

  • Events

    Throughout the year, the PTA offers many fun social activities. While the goal of these events is to raise fun, we also use them as an opportunity to raise funds.

  • Fundraisers

    Throughout the year, the PTO offers parents the opportunity to purchase goods from which a portion of the proceeds is contributed back to the PTO.
