A toilet ventilation apparatus for a toilet includes a toilet seat coupled to the toilet bowl and selectively movable between raised and lowered configurations. A pressure sensor is coupled to the toilet seat and is capable of detecting a weight indicative of a person being seated on the toilet seat. A fan is coupled to the toilet seat and electrically connected to the battery and pressure sensor, wherein the pressure sensor actuates the fan when pressure indicative of a person sitting on the toilet seat is detected. A proximal end of a conduit is in fluid communication with the fan, the conduit carrying odorous air away from the toilet bowl. The toilet seat includes a heating element and a motion sensor, the motion sensor actuating the heating element when motion is detected proximate the toilet seat. A moisture sensor is also configured to actuate the fan when energized.
