CCUPC Scrip ProgramWe’re pleased to share some exciting news about a new fundraising program for our church starting today. It’s called “scrip” and it’s the fundraising program that works while you shop. Scrip is simply a word that means “substitute money” – in other words, scrip is gift certificates from national and local retailers. They’re the same gift certificates that you buy at the store. Many popular retailers participate in our scrip program including Giant Eagle, Barnes & Noble, Dick’s Sporting Goods, Best Buy, The Gap, GetGo, Pizza Hut, Olive Garden, Toys ‘R Us and many, many others. You’re probably asking yourself how these stores help us raise money. It’s simple – scrip participating retailers agree to sell gift certificates to our church at a discount. Church families like yours buy the certificates for full face value, you redeem them for full face value, and CCUPC keeps the difference as revenue. And scrip is exciting, because everybody wins:
The beauty of scrip is that you put your regular household shopping dollars to work. You earn money for our church without spending a single additional penny! Just spend your regular shopping dollars with scrip at the store that participates in the scrip program. And scrip can be used for just about any household purchase including food, clothing, entertainment, gasoline and even dining out! You can also log on to www.glscrip.com for the full listing of the many retailers that you will be able to choose from. The CCUPC scrip program promises to be a simple and effective fundraising program. Meet The Scrip Ministry Team:
