SCRIP SUCCE$$ Tuition Credits Hit Record High!
June 25, 2008
Owensboro Catholic families recorded the highest tuition credits ever in the history of the SCRIP program this past year - earning an amazing $110,000!
Additionally, through the use of SCRIP, OC families helped to generate another $115,000 for the school system. Generating these dollars saves all of us money; without this source of revenue, tuition would have to be raised to cover the difference.
In fact, the first year of SCRIP generated $1.3M in gross sales. This past year, because of your active involvement, we generated $5.1M in gross sales.
The new SCRIP year has already begun (June 1) and runs through the end of May 2009. The goal remains unchanged at $160 and every parish sponsored family is required to generate this amount through the program, or can buy out for a $160 payment.
Using SCRIP is easy and as you can see, benefits our families in multiple ways. National retailers like Wal- Mart, Kroger, Lowes, Kohl's, Macy's, Texas Roadhouse, Red Lobster, and Dick's Sporting Goods are just a few of the over 100 stores to choose from. Additionally, local merchants such as Briarpatch, Colby's, Franey's, Darrin's, Great Harvest, All- American Muffler, and St. Maximillian Kolbe give you an even greater variety to choose from when doing your normal weekly shopping. And, these gift cards/certificates are kept on hand so that you can have them the same day you need them!
Dollar for dollar exchange, same day delivery, items you want/need, and earning money for your school and for your tuition savings - all of this is possible through the Owensboro Catholic SCRIP SUCCE$$ program!
