What is SCRIP?

SCRIP is a fundraising method whereby schools, churches, etc. purchase gift cards at a discounted price and sell these gift cards at face value to school families, church members, extended families, etc. It is another avenue for fundraising that allows people to get items that they really want rather than having to purchase popcorn, candles, candy bars and a plethora of other items.

Great Lakes SCRIP has a good description on How SCRIP Works.
