What is SCRIP?
Scrip is a major fundraiser for Lourdes Catholic School. It’s the convenient way to fundraise using gift cards to turn your everyday shopping into earnings. The beauty of Scrip is that you put your regular household shopping dollars to work. You earn money for our school without spending a single additional penny. You can purchase Scrip cards from Hy-Vee, Target, Walmart, Starbucks, and many other local & national merchants. 750+ top brands offer gift cards that give back to our school.
You can use eGift cards and physical gift cards to earn on gas, groceries, eating out, clothes—the list goes on. It’s easy, it’s rewarding, and it fits right into your busy schedule.
How exactly does Lourdes Catholic School earn money?
Merchants that you shop at every day offer a rebate back to Lourdes. For example: You purchase a $100 gift card for Hy-Vee for your weekly groceries. You purchase the gift card for exactly $100. Hy-Vee pays back to Lourdes a rebate of 3%. Rebate amounts vary by merchant.
Earn $$$ for your child’s school in 3 simple steps:
1. Shop brands you love
Shop eGift cards and physical cards from your favorite brands. Most physical cards can be reloaded so you can keep using the same one.
2. Buy gift cards
Buy eGift cards to use on the spot. Physical
cards are delivered to your coordinator to personally hand out. Both types of
cards are worth face value and not a penny less.
3. Earn for what matters
Brands offer rebates up to 20% of a gift card’s face value, so earnings add up fast. In fact, a single family can earn $1,000 or more every year for the things they love. Rebates are always earned immediately—you don’t have to wait until you use the gift card.
