SCRIP is a term that means “substitute money”. When you purchase SCRIP, you’re purchasing negotiable gift certificates and prepaid cards that are used just like cash. You can use scrip to purchase everyday expenses like food, clothing, and other essentials, and with every purchase, you earn revenue for either Sts. Joan of Arc and Patrick School our the St. Patrick Youth Group. SCRIP is available for local businesses and restaurants and national chains.
Scrip is sold after all weekend Masses, at the parish office during normal business hours and at the Sts. Joan of Arc and Patrick School campus on Dixon Road. Cash and checks are accepted. Most SCRIP is available but if it is not, it can be ordered and delivered within one week.
Because SCRIP is purchased with cash up front, the participating retailers offer a substantial discount. Our organization buys SCRIP from Great Lakes SCRIP Center at a discount, and re-sells the certificates to families like yours for full face value. The discount – from two to fifteen percent or more – is our organization’s revenue.
