What
Does the Scrip Program Do?
CAPTURE FREE MONEY. Scrip
is “shopping cart fundraising.” All families can
generate revenue though purchases you would make anyway. Groceries,
clothing, toys, gifts, and even gasoline can be purchased
using Scrip. Raise money for your school by using your existing
household shopping budget!
HOW
DOES IT WORK? Your
PTC organization buys Scrip at a discount and resells the
certificates at full face value (Paper Scrip). The bulk of
the discount – from two to fifteen percent or more –
is retained by the PTC as revenue. Make every purchase count
for our schools by also registering or renewing your grocery
cards (Electronic Scrip). The PTC in turn helps to support
many school programs.
There
is no cost to sign
up. Parents, teachers, friends, and families are encouraged
to participate as supporters of our available
programs. Regardless of your income level, you can help
enhance your child’s educational experience without
spending an extra dime!
IT'S
EASY! Experience our SCRIP
MOUNTAIN of opportunities to capture FREE money for our
kids. The only limitation is your imagination! The more involved
you are, the faster the money comes in.
