What is "scrip"?
"Scrip" refers to certificates (usually gift certificates or gift cards) that stores make available at a discount for fundraising purposes; they are exchangeable at their face value for a store's products or services. The most appealing aspect of this fundraiser is that our school earns money without you spending an extra dime; you simply pay for your purchases differently. You will be able to spend every dollar of scrip you buy at the designated store -- the store will pay our PTO the percentage contribution (anywhere from 4-21%). The percentage that each store contributes to the PTO is listed on the order form below. In addition, because you pay for your scrip purchase by credit card, you will still earn any miles or rebates your credit card company offers.
Families who have never used scrip often wonder how it will work, or if it will be too much of a hassle. If you are unsure, buy a very small amount the first time; every dollar you spend on scrip will earn money for the school.
