Yes you can contribute a GIFT to the school from the PTA.....as far as leaving the PTA you only have to have a group decide you no longer want to be a PTA.....there are no SCARE tactics to stay

We are considerting converting to a PTO. However, we have had some difficulty in spending all of our funds so that the State and/or National PTA cannot reclaim these dollars. We are trying to investigate different ways to get rid of the money - yet keep it within our jurisdiction. Does anyone know if it is possible to make a gift or contribution directly to our school from the PTA? Also, we need to know what can be expected from the State and/or National PTA other than the "scare" tactics when we notify them of our intent. Any input from those groups that have already made this change would be greatly appreciated.
