What is Scrip and how does it work?
Scrip by definition is ‘any substitute for legal tender’ - in this case, gift cards! RaiseRIght is the name of the Scrip company we use here at Bethany. RaiseRight has multiple ways to earn a rebate. The primary way to earn is through the purchase of gift cards. RaiseRight sells us gift cards at a discount which is then passed on to Bethany in the form of a rebate. Each brand sets their own discount percentage. That rebate is then shared with the purchaser (60%) and the running of the program (40%).
Use gift cards from your favorite brands to pay for your daily purchases - groceries, gas, your morning coffee, DIY projects and more!
In addition to gift card fundraising, there is a shop online option, a local dining option and an option to book travel through RaiseRight.
how are rebates designated?
Rebates can be designated to a specific student’s tuition or youth account OR to a ministry.
Bethany Lutheran Preschool: Preschool families can use Scrip rebates to offset the cost of tuition.
Bethany Lutheran School: Elementary and Middle School families can use their rebate to offset tuition costs. Additionally, families can “bank” their rebate for their child’s 8th grade Washington DC/NYC trip beginning in the 5th grade.
Bethany Lutheran Youth: Parents of Bethany Youth (8th grade to freshman in college) can apply the rebate to their child’s youth account to be used toward retreats, youth gatherings and mission trips.
General Ministry: You can help ministries at Bethany by designating your rebate towards Music, Student Success Program, Tuition Assistance, or Youth
The Scrip earning period runs from April 1 to March 31. Rebates for tuition are applied annually in May or August.
