How to Set Next Year’s PTA Board Up for Success (Without Lifting a Finger)

Transitioning from one PTA board to the next can feel like handing over the controls of a speeding train. The last thing you want is to leave the new board scrambling to fill budget gaps. But what if you could leave them a gift that keeps on giving—without endless bake sales or donation drives?

Here’s how you can set next year’s PTA board up for success effortlessly, ensuring they start with funds already rolling in and a head start on making a difference for your school.

The Problem – Starting from Scratch Isn’t Fun

Most PTA boards start the year with an empty budget and spend months catching up. This leads to stress, rushed fundraising efforts, and missed opportunities. In fact, many PTAs rely on early fall fundraisers just to cover basic expenses—leaving little room for new projects.

An empty budget isn’t just inconvenient—it’s a barrier to making an impact. When the new board spends their first few months scrambling for funds, important projects get pushed aside. Imagine if instead of starting from zero, they could start with funds already in place.

The Solution – Keep the Funds Rolling with Trillage

Trillage helps your PTA generate passive income all year long—no events, no sales, and no extra work. Funds keep coming in even over summer, providing the new board with a financial cushion to start the year strong. The truth is, waiting until next year is costing your PTA real money. Every month without Trillage is a month of passive income your PTA doesn’t get.

Trillage turns traditional fundraising on its head by making it automatic and effortless. Parents subscribe to offers and discounts, and a part of their subscription fee goes directly to your PTA every month—even during summer. The result? The new board starts the year with funds already rolling in.

Why This Matters:
  • No Seasonal Gaps: Unlike typical fundraisers, Trillage doesn’t stop when school does.
  • Effortless Income: Set it up once and keep earning without lifting a finger.
  • Immediate Impact: The sooner you sign up, the more funds you’ll have by the time school starts again.

3 Simple Steps to Get Started Today

  1. Sign Up for Trillage in Under 10 Minutes
    • Why It’s Easy: No fees, no catch—just a simple way to start earning.

    Pro Tip: Sign up before summer starts to maximize your earnings through those off-school months.

  2. Invite Local Businesses
    • The Win-Win: Local businesses get exposure to parents, and your PTA gains more subscribers—which means more funds rolling in.
    • How to Do It: Use our pre-written email templates to invite businesses to join Trillage.

  3. Share the Subscription Link

The Payoff – What the New Board Gets

By signing up for Trillage now, you’re leaving next year’s board more than just a few dollars—you’re leaving them a financial head start that makes an immediate impact. Instead of scrambling to organize fundraisers in the first few months, the new board will have funds ready to use from day one, allowing them to focus on projects that truly benefit the school. Plus, with recurring income already set up, the new board can spend less time stressing over fundraising and more time making a difference. When the new board sees funds already rolling in, they’ll thank you—not just for the money, but for making their lives easier and setting them up for success.

Don’t Let Next Year’s Board Start from Zero
