Scrip is a term that means "substitute money".
When band purchases scrip, we're purchasing negotiable gift certificates that are used just like cash. The scip is issued by the national and local retailers where many of us already shop. These merchants want to support non-profit organizations, and in return ask us to support them by shopping with scrip at their stores. The organization buys the scrop at a discount and resells the certificates for full face value. The bulk of the discount - from two to fifteen percent or more - is retained by the band as revenue. Families can use scrip to purchase everyday expenses like food, clothing, and other essentials, and with every scrip purchase, they earn revenue for the GHBPA. Attached you will find an abreviated merchant list, a complete list is available on line at http://www.glscrip.com. Please feel free to include write-in entries.
Orders are taken every other week (Mar 4, 18 Apr 2, etc.), on Tuesdays, and should be filled and returned within one week. There is a black box in the front of the band room to place your orders and money in. Please make checks payable to GHBPA. Click link at top of page for order form.
