Scrip Program

Fundraise while you shop! Scrip is simply a word that means “substitute money” – in other words, Scrip is shopping (gift) cards from national and local retailers. They are the same shopping (gift) cards that you buy at the store. Many popular retailers participate in our Scrip program including JCPenney, The Gap, Shell, Pizza Hut, Red Lobster and many, many others. Click here to see a complete list of national retailers that participate. We have also negotiated with local retailers to participate in the Scrip program. You can see the list of local retailers by clicking here.
You are probably asking yourself how these retailers help us raise money. It is simple — Scrip participating retailers agree to sell shopping (gift) cards to RCCS at a discount. Member families like yours buy the cards for full face value, redeem them for full face value, and RCCS keeps the difference as revenue. RCCS shares this revenue with you by crediting your tuition account with 50% of the revenue earned. Scrip is exciting, because everyone wins:

• The retailer gets cash up front and repeat business…
• You get a powerful fundraising alternative that involves no selling…
• RCCS gets a regular source of revenue…
• You earn tuition credits for your child’s education…
