Major Retailers Want
To Give Oak Creek
Hockey Money!
We’re pleased to share some exciting news about a new
fundraising program for our organization. It’s called “scrip”, and it’s
the fundraising program that works while you shop.
Scrip is simply a word that means “substitute money” –
in other words, scrip is gift certificates/gift cards from national and
local retailers. They’re the same gift certificates that you
buy at the store. Many popular retailers participate in our scrip
program including Safeway, Ace, Cabela's, Gap, Walmart, Old Navy and
many, many others.
You’re probably asking yourself how these
stores help us raise money. It’s simple -- scrip participating retailers
agree to sell gift certificates to our organization at a discount. Member
families like yours buy the certificates for full face value, they redeem them
for full face value, and OCHA keeps the difference as revenue. And scrip
is exciting, because everybody wins:
Our hockey association gets a regular
source of revenue.
· The beauty of scrip is that you put your regular
household shopping dollars to work. You earn money for OCHA without spending a
single additional penny. Just spend your regular shopping dollars with
scrip at the stores that participate in the scrip program! And scrip can
be used for just about any household purchase including food, clothing,
entertainment, gasoline and even dining out. A FULL LIST of vendors
available via email, contact Kira at RipleyKCR@aol.com.
We have cards on hand to sell. We also hope to
put an order in on the 1st and 3rd Monday of each month.
This fundraiser is open to everyone! It can be a real time saver for
gifts and other occasions--PLEASE pass the word on to everyone you
know! The vendors are nationwide, so you can order for family
members in other states!
