The current research is about the financing of school participatory structures, particularly FC / CGDES and CGDES in the commune of Droum, Niger Republic. It essentially aims at determining the explanatory factors of financial gap of these structures that are partnership frameworks between the State, development partners, schools, families and community. To do this, both qualitative and quantitative data have been collected across the questionnaire, the snowball technique, the direct observation. Our analyzes showed the existence of factors which created a financial lack directly hindering the achievement of activities of these structures within schools. Added to this, are internal and external parameters including the reluctance of parents linked to their bad connotation of school of white, local actors strategies of co-optation, etc. The whole of these factors determined the low mobilization of funds for the financing of these structures in Droum.
