FPAC are
pleased to share some exciting news about a new fundraising program, it is call
SCRIP and it’s the fundraiser that works while you shop. SCRIP is a way for us to purchase gift cards from
national and local retailers, the same ones you buy in the stores, but FPAC
gets a percentage of every card.
Many popular retailers participate in the SCRIP program including Home Depot, Lowes, Starbucks, Target, Walmart and many more.
SCRIP
participating retailers agree to sell gifts cards to FPAC at a discount. Families but the certificates for full face
value, redeem them for full face value at the store or online, and FPAC puts
the proceeds towards this years “Save for Shade” campaign.
The beauty
of SCRIP is that you put your regular household shopping dollars to works. You earn money for our school without
spending a single additional penny. Just
spend your regular shopping dollars with SCRIP at the stores that participate
in the program.
All orders
need to be paid for in advance, with checks payable to FPAC-GPO accompanied by
a completed order form. FPAC will
collect orders through August – deadline for orders in August 20th –
and we will deliver the cards the first week of September. You can download your order form HERE.
The FPAC
SCRIP program promises to be a simple and effective fundraising tool for us.
Thank you
for your support in getting this “Save for Shade” campaign off the ground!
