Scrip

“Substitute for money”

SCRIP is one of the larger fund raising programs at St Joseph School. The program requires no out-of-pocket expenses and allows the school to earn profit off local merchants you already frequent. The SCRIP committee purchase gift cards to various merchants at discounted rates, the families of St Joseph School then purchase these cards at face value. The difference is then recorded as “profit” to the school. The 2007-2008 profit goal for the SCRIP Program has been set at $25,000. Together, we can achieve and surpass this goal! Click Here for more information about SCRIP!
