Scrip Fundraising

It is with great enthusiasm that we present you with an EAGLE INVESTMENTS Scrip program as an exciting, on-going fundraiser here at CCS.  Scrip is a substitute for cash, in the form of gift cards and certificates. By using scrip to shop for gifts and everyday items you already purchase such as groceries, clothing, and household products, you can raise money for Challenge.  These investments you make provide resources and new opportunities for each of our CCS Eagle classrooms.
 
It's SO easy. Here is how it works:

• Participating vendors such as Safeway, Wal-Mart, AMC Theatres, Barnes & Noble and Dennis Uniforms have agreed to sell gift cards/certificates (SCRIP) to our school at a discount.
• Challenge Charter School will sell the gift cards for face value.
• Challenge will keep the difference as revenue while you enjoy the full value of the cards and certificates!

There is no limit to the amount of money that Challenge can earn. The best part is that it does not cost your family any more than you already spend.  For example, if 200 families purchase $200 worth of Albertsons grocery cards, those families get their groceries, and the school earns 4% or $1,600!  Scrip gift cards and certificates also make great gifts.
 
Specific information regarding purchase options and delivery information can be found below.  Click here for links to the Shop with Scrip website as well as a paper order form.  More information about the program and a complete list of merchants can be viewed at www.shopwithscrip.com.
 

ORDER & DELIVERY SCHEDULE

We have done a Scrip Fundraiser before, but this is a little different.  Moving forward, Challenge will be submitting Scrip orders on a regular, on-going basis. Instead of only being able to order during a set period of time, you can place an order with us whenever it is convenient for you.  We will submit the orders we receive on the 1st and 3rd Wednesday of each month.  Any order received after 9:00 am on those days will be held until the following order is placed.  Typically we will receive the orders within a week and a half.  When received, the cards and gift certificates will be sorted and available for pickup in the front office or sent home with your child (if you have signed the waiver allowing us to release them) on the next order day.
 
If the order or delivery/pickup day falls on a non school day, the order or delivery/pickup day will move to the next Wednesday that we are in school.
 
There are two ways to submit an order to us.  The easiest way is to do it online.  Just see the Getting Started with Shop With Scrip page for step by step directions.  If you'd rather, you can also submit a paper order form.  Whichever way you choose to shop, it will still be necessary to submit your payment, which must be cash or check, to the school directly.  Please attach the check to your order form and clearly mark it as a Scrip Order.

Thank you for your support.
