Scrip - What is scrip? Scrip is a term that means “substitute money”. When you purchase scrip, you’re purchasing gift certificates and prepaid cards that are used just like cash. You can use scrip to purchase everyday things like food, clothing,and other essentials, and with every purchase, we earn revenue! Scrip is a popular fundraiser because families don’t have to sell anything. The St. Bridget Scrip schedule for Spring 2010 can be found here. For more information, contact Deb Rogers.
