DCS Band Scrip “Gift Card” Fundraiser!
Thursday, June 12th, 2008

(If you are enrolled and do not wish to participate any longer, please let us know so we can remove you.  If you are enrolled and you would like to continue, please read the following carefully and update your information with us.  If you have not enrolled yet, please read carefully below and decide if you would like to participate in one of the easiest fundraisers ever.)

We would be glad to have you join the easiest fundraiser ever! We strive to make it as simple as possible for you to earn money for YOUR CHILD’S BAND ACCOUNT. Please let us know if there is anything that we can do to help you.

Scrip is simply a way to raise funds for your child’s band account without having to sell anything! You buy gift cards through the Scrip program to any of the vendors listed on the www.shopwithscrip.com website and the rebate amount goes into your child’s band account. These are the same gift cards that you buy in the store. (Examples: Wal-Mart, Lowe’s, O’Charley’s, Red Lobster, Wendy’s, JC Penney, Starbuck’s, Subway, Bath & Body Works and many, many more!) Companies sell the gift cards to Great Lakes Scrip at a discounted amount and then they in turn pass along a portion of the discount only to non-profit organizations, like us, to raise money for our non-profit organization.

Program Rules & Guidelines:

1. Each family will be provided a unique customer ID number. This number must appear on all orders you submit to ensure your purchases are accurately recorded.

2. All certificate orders must be accompanied by cash or a check made payable to DCS Scrip. Or you can pay with PrestoPay thru ShopWithScrip. Scrip Certificate payments are not tax deductible because you receive dollar for dollar value.

3. Please add a $2.00 S&H fee per total family order.

4. If your check is returned because of non-sufficient funds (NSF), you will be charged a $20 fee payable to DCHS Band. After two NSF checks are tendered on your account, your scrip ordering privileges will be limited to cash only.

5. With each order you place, DCHS Band will provide a summary of your family’s purchases.

6. Scrip certificates are purchased on your behalf, and are not returnable.

7. When you pick up your scrip certificates, open your order and verify its accuracy. Your signature on the Order Pickup List indicates you have received your order in its entirety. In the unlikely event you should find a discrepancy in your scrip order, please contact the DCHS Band Scrip Program Coordinator within 7 days.

8. Scrip certificates are the same as cash, and should be handled accordingly. DCHS Band will not be responsible for certificates that are lost, stolen or misplaced while in your possession.

9. You must send us an email as stated on the next page or sign a WAIVER OF RESPONSIBILITY form stating it is alright for your child to pick up your gift cards before they will be released with your child. These forms will be kept on file, and DCHS Band accepts no responsibility for certificates delivered in this manner.

* If you are interested in participating in this program, please email the following information to dcscrip@comcast:

May 1, 2008: Now ShopWithScrip Families Can Pay Online With  PrestoPay™

ShopWithScrip.com is Great Lakes Scrip Center’s free web application to help our scrip clients manage their scrip programs. Families like ShopWithScrip.com because they can securely order scrip any time day or night, from any internet-connected computer.  Now families can also pay for their scrip online with PrestoPay™.

 

PrestoPay™  is NOT a credit card based system – it’s better.  PrestoPay™  uses the safe, reliable NACHA electronic fund transfer system.  Your families enter their checking account information one time in a secure environment.  After the account is verified, your families can choose to have their scrip payments electronically deducted from their checking accounts when they order.  When you aggregate their orders and upload them to us, we will debit your organization account for the amount of the order, minus any payments your families have made to us. The system is safe, secure and convenient.

 

To fully understand the powerful features of PrestoPay™, click on the images below to view our brief video demonstrations.  Then log on to ShopWithScrip.com to activate PrestoPay™ for your organization families.

Tips to help with this Fundraiser:
Thursday, August 30th, 2007
Scrip Card 3 Column

This is a NO SELLING REQUIRED Fundraiser!

Ask your family, friends and co-workers if they will buy their gift cards thru you instead of buying them at the store. This can be a benefit to both of you because they get their gift cards delivered to them instead of having to go buy them at the store and you get the discount amount in your child’s band account. Even if they only order 1 or 2 a month. It’s FREE MONEY!  It’s simple, just send out an email once a month, letting everyone know when the orders are due and approx. when they will be in.  You can buy all your Birthday, Baby Shower, Wedding & Wedding Shower, Graduation, etc. gifts through this program! Everybody loves to get gift certificates! Especially kids!  Let us know if we can help you!
