How does the SCRIP Program work?
Assumption School purchases gift cards and certificates from Giant Eagle, Kuhn's, Muddy Cup Coffeehouse, Rusty Nail, and Eat N Park which are available for purchase at the face value at the school and Parish Office (see How do I purchase SCRIP below for selling times). You pay the face value and a percentage is donated to a school family designated by you. Ex: Giant Eagle gives a 5% rebate, you pay $100 for your card which is worth $100 worth of gas or groceries, the school gets $5. Families are sent their rebate total quarterly at report card time showing rebates earned for that quarter.

How can I get the most help to earn more rebates toward my tuition?
Ø Anticipate your needs—purchase SCRIP on a regular basis; then you will have it when you need it!
Ø Spread the word—ask family members to help you by purchasing SCRIP, too. Anyone can purchase it and give you the rebate. If a family member is making a large purchase, have them consider helping you out.
Ø Give certificates as gifts—they are always appreciated.
Ø Use scrip to purchase or give as Christmas presents.
Ø Once a month, we send out the Great Lakes Order Form with hundreds of vendors that you may also use to earn rebates.
What if I go over my assessment goal?
All rebates are credited to your fundraiser fee of $250.00.
Once you earn the $250.00 fee, the school's Angel Fund earns one-half of the rebate amount.
