SCRIPT PROGRAM

Dear Parents:

I'm going to guess that we'd all like to do things that benefit our children.  Right?

Well, I'd like to let you know about our incredible "SCRIP" program, that does just that.  And, it’s easy as pie.

In case you are unaware, the SCRIP program works based on your usual grocery purchases.  It enables you to contribute 2% of your purchases towards our school (including our CCD program).  In addition, you’ll earn 3% in school tuition/CCD fee savings!

Here’s how it works:

·        SCRIP is available for the local grocery stores -- Acme, Redner’s, Superfresh, Clemens.

·        SCRIP actually works just like gift certificates.  Simply purchase the amount you would like to spend at the grocery store.  Then present the gift certificates, instead of cash!

·        SCRIP is purchased by OLMC through a centralized office of each store ... where they are discounted to OLMC for 5%.  You purchase them at face value.

·        The discount directly benefits you -- and OLMC!  The entire 5% can be designated to benefit OLMC School.  Or, you can designate 2% for the school -- and take the other 3% for savings off your school tuition or CCD fees!

·        Imagine how the savings can pile up!

·        Everyone can be part of this program -- friends, neighbors, relatives -- so spread the word!  (They might even pass their tuition savings vouchers to you for more savings!)

·        You can purchase as small as a $10 denomination (go ahead, give it a try!).

This is a win-win situation and it only takes a little time to purchase the SCRIP.  There are a variety of convenient times set up during school hours, after school, before and after Masses. 

The success of the SCRIP program needs you – if we all team together I think we’ll be amazed how quickly the funds and savings will pile up!

Let’s continue this incredible way of enhancing our kids’ education with just a little help from you! 

Remember too, volunteers are always needed.  We’d be happy for even a 1/2 hour of your time!

Please call Jim Bollenbach at (215-348-4190) if you have any questions at all or can help.

SCRIP is available on Wednesday’s from 4:30-7:30PM in the rectory, Friday from 2:30-3:30PM in the School Faculty Workroom and on the weekends before and after masses (Saturday and Sunday) in the main vestibule of the church.

OLMC Thanks You for your support.
