Scrips
Introducing "Scrip" the fundraising program that works while you shop. Scrip is simply a word that means "substitute money" - in other words, scrip is gift certificates from national and local retailers. They are exactly the same gift certificates you would buy at the store. Many popular retailers participate in the Scrip program, including: JC Penny, The Gap, Pizza Hut, Red Lobster and many, many others!
Here is how it works:
1-Scrip-participating retailers agree to sell gift certificates to our organization at a discount.
2-Families, like yours, buy the certificates for full face value.
3-Our school keeps the difference as revenue.
Everybody wins~! More information to come...
