What is SCRIP?
Scrip is a national program to help non-profit groups and schools earn money. Scrip allows families to purchase prepaid merchandise gift cards for local and national businesses through the Great Lakes Scrip company. These gift cards are just like cash. In appreciation for your patronage, these businesses give St. Bernadette School between 2% to 25% of the face value on the gift card. Gift cards are available from over 300 national and local retailers. A few examples include cards for groceries, clothing, dining, and gasoline purchases. Outlined are facts and directions regarding the Scrip program and how to participate.
Cards for Purchase:
1. Plastic Card: Traditional plastic gift cards.
2. ScripNow eCard: An online gift card you can print or a link you can “cut and paste” from your Scrip account directly to the retailers’ check out screen.
