In our current financial times we are sensitive to the fact that our families may not be able to support school fundraisers as much as they have been able to before. We wanted to remind folks of the ongoing Foundation Scrip program. We thought that it would be helpful to go over the basics of Scrip, and how you can take advantage of this great program.

Scrip is "substitute money". When families purchase scrip, they receive negotiable certificates or cards that can be used like cash to purchase products or services from merchants who have issued them. Scrip can be used to purchase anything from groceries, fuel, clothing, toys, and cosmetics to entertainment, electronics, home improvement, or household services. Offering freedom of choice and versatility, scrip is also a great gift idea for anyone and any occasion.

Nevertheless, what makes scrip a valuable and effective tool for Skyline is that as families use it to buy their favorite products and services, they generate funds for the Skyline Foundation. Look for your Scrip order form attached to the Eagle’s Nest each month. We are also including a PDF version of the Scrip form online.  Our goal is to get as much out of the dollars we all spend each month.
