How does Scrip generate revenue for our Parish & School?

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.
Your organization buys the scrip from Great Lakes Scrip Center at a discount,
and re-sells the certificates to your organization members for full face value.
The bulk of the discount - from two to fifteen percent or more -
is retained by your organization as revenue.

Why is Scrip a Good Deal?

The reason for the effectiveness of scrip is simple: families generate revenue
through purchases they would make anyway. Groceries, clothing, toys, gifts,
even gasoline can be purchased with scrip. An organization of 150 families
easily spends between one and two million dollars per year on food, clothing
and other essentials. If these families use scrip for these purchases, they can
raise as much as $40,000 to $80,000 per year for their organization
--without spending an additional penny.
