Thank You, Lowe's __ Grants for PTOs and PTAs
I honestly don't think Lowe's support of parent involvement and of PTOs and PTAs gets near enough credit. These guys really walk the walk when it comes to supporting schools in the communities where they do business.

onestly don't think Lowe's support of parent involvement and of PTOs and PTAs gets near enough credit. These guys really walk the walk when it comes to supporting schools in the communities where they do business. I may be missing a program, but I'm fairly certain that the Lowe's Toolbox for Education program is by far the largest and most generous grant program focused primarily on school PTOs and PTAs in the whole country.
Thanks Lowe's!
The 2nd cycle of the 2008-09 school year was just completed. The totals -- more than $4,000,000 shared with more than 900 local parent groups across the country. And that's just this year. The Toolbox program is now well over $10 million in total. Double thanks, Lowe's!
PTO Today is proud of the modest role we play as the communications and administrative team behind the scenes of Toolbox. None of this would happen without the generosity of the Lowe's Charitable & Educational Foundation. Hundreds of playgrounds, hundreds of school grounds upgrades, hundreds of school signs, and innumerable creative building projects that don't fit squarely in a common category (but which all are making schools better places...) -- awesome.
Let's Build Something Together is the Lowe's tag line. With this program, they're really making that a reality. Can your group gear up now to get involved next year?
