FAQs
What is Scrip?
Scrip is a fundraising program that works while you shop. Scrip is simply a word that means “substitute money” – in other words, Scrip is gift certificates 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 Giant Food, Dunkin Donuts, Home Depot, JCPenney, The Gap, Mobil, Pizza Hut, Red Lobster and many, many others. When you purchase Scrip, you receive full face value of the gift cards you order, but the retailer donates a percentage of your order back to the music program. In other words, when you order Scrip you make valuable financial contributions to the music program and it doesn’t cost you a dime!
Why should I participate in the Scrip Fundraising Program?
Scrip is an easy way to contribute to the River Hill Band Program without spending any more money than you have already budgeted for items such as groceries, gas, and dinners on the go. Your support will enable the band program to continue providing educational opportunities for new generations of students.
How is the money from Scrip used by the Band Program?
All of your Scrip funds go directly to the student account of your choice or you may designate a specific ensemble to benefit. Each year the band program raises funds to meet the yearly budget including instruments, music, guest artists, master classes, accessories, trips and more. Every donation helps to fund these necessary items.
When are orders due?
Bulk orders are placed periodically throughout the year depending on demand. Announcements regarding deadlines will be through email from the Coordinator. Orders and payment must be received by the due date for your order to be included in our count. Scrip orders are usually delivered to River Hill within a week.
