Replace the spreadsheets, email chains, and Venmo requests. Growing Grounds gives PTOs, booster clubs, and school organizations one place for events, fundraising, volunteers, and communications.
Everything Your Organization Needs
Nine powerful modules that replace the spreadsheets, group texts, and separate apps your PTO juggles today.
Plan events, manage RSVPs, sell tickets, and track attendance. From carnivals to appreciation weeks — run it all from one dashboard.
Match parents to opportunities by skill and availability. Automated sign-ups, reminders, and thank-you messages do the follow-up.
Searchable member directory with household management, classroom grouping, and contact exports.
Run campaigns, accept donations, and host auctions — with zero transaction fees. Every dollar raised goes to your school.
Send announcements, direct messages, and newsletters. Reach the right parents — by classroom, committee, or the whole school.
Sell event tickets and accept payments online — no separate payment processor or Venmo requests needed.
Sell merchandise, spirit wear, and event tickets online. Manage inventory, sizes, colors, and orders — no separate Shopify needed.
Financial reports, tax receipts, and a clear audit trail. Track expenses, generate reports, and share with your board.
Hand off to next year's board in one click. All history, contacts, budgets, and documents transfer seamlessly.
Zero Transaction Fees. Every Dollar Goes to Your School.
Most platforms charge 5-10% on every transaction. On a $20,000 fundraiser, that's $1,000-$2,000 gone. With Growing Grounds, you pay a flat subscription — and keep 100% of what you raise.

Loved by PTO Leaders Everywhere
Hear from the parents, presidents, and treasurers who switched.
★★★★★
Growing Grounds replaced five different tools we were juggling. Now our entire PTO board is on the same page, and parent participation has doubled.
★★★★★
As treasurer, I used to spend hours reconciling spreadsheets. Now I generate financial reports in two clicks. Tax season is actually manageable.
★★★★★
Our booster club raised 40% more this year because families could actually find and sign up for events. The volunteer coordination alone is worth it.
★★★★★
The transition from our old system was seamless. We imported everything in under an hour and haven't looked back since.
★★★★★
Volunteer sign-ups used to be chaos — texting, emailing, hoping people showed up. Now parents pick their shifts and get automatic reminders.
★★★★★
We saved over $2,000 in our first year just from eliminating transaction fees. That money went straight to classroom supplies.
