What is Scrip Fundraising?
Scrip fundraising is a no-selling program that enables us to raise money for St. Joseph School. Scrip is just another way to pay for everyday purchases using gift cards in place of cash, checks, and credit cards. You purchase gift cards from St. Joseph School at face value, and St. Joseph School orders those cards from Great Lakes Scrip Center at a reduced price. The difference is an instant rebate for St. Joseph School. For example, you purchase a $100 gift card to Stop & Shop for $100. St. Joseph School purchased that card for $96. The $4 difference is the profit earned for the school. It’s really that simple! Scrip is one of the largest fundraisers that the Home & School Association runs!
4 Ways to Purchase Scrip
Purchase physical gift cards from our in-stock inventory on sale in the school office daily via backpack. Use the order form below OR submit an order in your online account. If you choose "pay coordinator", simply send your payment in an envelope labeled Scrip with your name.

You can purchase gift cards from our Special Order List by completing a Scrip Order Form and turning the form and payment into the School Office by 12pm on Monday. Special orders should be fulfilled by Thursday and may be picked up in the school office or sent home with a student.
Please Note: Only exact cash or check is accepted as payment in the school office; sorry, no credit cards.
