SCRIP Physical Gift Card Ordering IS HERE (counts toward the FFO)
Another fundraising opportunity that counts toward the Family Fundraising Obligation (FFO) is SCRIP. Think about all of the gift cards that you purchase for others. Think of all of the places that you shop where you could use a gift card. Instead of buying gift cards at a grocery or retail store like Mariano's, Walmart or Target – purchase them via the SCRIP program, and earn toward your FFO!
Each week, families can purchase eGift cards or reloads via SCRIP. For the next couple of weeks, you can purchase Physical Gift Cards. This only happens a couple of times a year - and THIS IS THE WEEK to get your order in!
Now is your chance to get some holiday gift shopping done, get a reloadable card, or order from a vendor that only offers physical cards. The limit for physical cards per family order is $500.
