Scrip
Scrip is fundraising while you shop!

Scrip is “shopping cart fundraising”
• CLScrip allows your family to purchase scrip for everyday expenses
like food, clothing, and entertainment while earning a percentage
of each dollar of scrip purchased back in revenue.
• When you purchase scrip, you are purchasing negotiable gift certificates
that are used just like cash.
• The scrip is issued by the national and local retailers where many
of you already shop!
•
These merchants want to support non-profit organizations, and in
return ask you to support them by shopping with scrip at their
stores.
Where do I get CLScrip?
Each Tuesday from 8:00—9:00 AM, there will be a Scrip Table in front of the school.
Order forms are also available in the school office any time during office hours.
What Scrip is available?
Order forms are available in the school office and it lists all “in-stock” cards and also
some of the more popular “special order” cards. A full listing of Scrip is available on the
Great Lakes Website at www.glscrip.com.
If I special order scrip, how long will it take?
Orders are placed each Tuesday. If an order is placed on Tuesday at the CLScrip table,
your cards will be available the following Tuesday.
The reason for the effectiveness of scrip is simple: Families generate revenue
through purchases they would make anyway. Groceries, clothing, toys, gifts,
even gasoline can be purchased with scrip. An organization of 150 families
easily spends between one and two million dollars per year on food, clothing
and other essentials. If these families use scrip for these purchases, they can
raise as much as $40,000 to $80,000 per year for their organization --without
spending an additional penny.
