The PSHS Bands would like to remind you about a great fundraising opportunity for our band: Scrip! Scrip is a term that means "substitute money". When you purchase scrip, you are purchasing a pre-paid gift card that is just as good as cash, and you can use scrip to purchase everyday items like food, clothing, and other essentials.
Here's the best part: There is NO cost to you! The scrip cards retain their entire value, while a percentage of the retailer's profits go to the PSHS Band Program. For example, you might purchase a $100 Jewel scrip card (we all need to eat, right?). You will receive a $100 gift card, while Jewel donates 4% of that to the PSHS Band Program. Over the long run, if many people are involved, this can generate quite a bit for the program.
What's in it for me? The more money we can bring in through fundraisers, the easier it is for the band to buy more equipment, reduce costs for items like T-shirts and meals, etc. If that's not enough to motivate you, how about this: Each time you submit a scrip order, your name will be placed in a drawing for a chance to win a $20 gas card. You will receive one entry to the drawing for each $50 you order through the scrip program. Drawings will occur at Band Booster Meeting each time we reach over $1000 in scrip sales.
