We are quite sure you've heard about the Scrip program at Regina Coeli/St. Joseph School. The Scrip program has tremendous potential for bringing funds to our school without requiring our students to sell more items. Better yet, we make money on things we all purchase on a regular basis, for example, groceries, gas, clothing, dining out, gift giving, and entertainment. The program is as simple as exchanging your cash or checks for equal amounts of gift cards or certificates for places you regularly shop. Regina Coeli buys the scrip (gift cards) at the discount (most discounts are about 5% of the face value). We sell the cards to you at face value. 1% - 2% **of the discount goes back to you in a tuition credit (depending on how much discount we receive on the card) and the other 1% - 3% goes to the school for fundraising money. You use these prepaid cards for purchases until the balance on the card is $0.00, and then pick up another Scrip card for your next shopping trip. **Depending on the amount of discount, your account will be adjusted accordingly. Scrip is available at the church office Monday - Friday 9:00 - 3:00 p.m. It is also sold after Masses every weekend. You can also order Scrip by using the order form found on this website and have the Scrips delivered via your student. You can print a Scrip Order Form anytime by clicking on the link on this page. There is no question that Scrip has become a permanent and major source of fundraising for our school. In fact, we are counting on your support of the Scrip program because it will help us continue to offer a reasonable priced, quality Catholic education for parishioners, as well as for non-parishoners. Thank you for your consideration of this outstanding opportunity to raise funds for your child's school.
Remember - your "total" Scrip purchases includes total of all Scrip purchases made using your child's name. Scrip purchases made from April 20, 2009 - April 19, 2010 will earn 1- 2% of the total toward your 2010 - 2011 school year tuition. You will receive a statement during the month of May that summarizes your total purchases and the amount you have earned towards your 2010-11 tuition. EXAMPLE: $1,000 total Scrip purchases = $30 off tuition $5,000 total Scrip purchases = $150 off tuition $10,000 total Scrip purchases = $300 off tuition Also, please remember - you are responsible for asking the Scrip volunteer to record the purchase in your student's name. Tell your friends and family to purchase using your student's name.
