St. Anthony the Abbot Church!

What Is Scrip?

Scrip is a term that means “substitute money”.  When you purchase scrip, you’re purchasing gift certificates and prepaid cards that are used just like cash. You can use scrip to purchase everyday expenses like food, clothing, and other essentials, and with every card purchase, you earn revenue for our church.

Scrip is "shopping cart fundraising”

Scrip is a popular fundraiser because families don’t have to sell anything. St. Anthony parish members produce revenue by making regular household purchases they would make anyway. Groceries, clothing, toys, gifts, even gasoline can be purchased with scrip.

How scrip generates revenue for St. Anthony Church

The Great Lakes Scrip Center acts on behalf of churches, schools and other non profit organizations to purchase large amounts of scrip from grocery stores, department stores, and other retailers. Because the scrip is purchased with cash up front, the participating retailers offer a substantial discount. St. Anthony Church buys the scrip from Great Lakes Scrip Center at a discount, and re-sells the certificates for full face value.  The discount, from two to fifteen percent or more–is the revenue for St. Anthony Church.
