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   

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!
