PENNEKAMP SCRIP PROGRAM

We’ve Added 30 New Vendors This Year!

 

The Pennekamp Scrip Program raises more funds for our school than any other event. Scrip is a nationally recognized and supported program designed to raise money through purchases you would normally make on a daily basis. Groceries, clothing, toys, gifts, even gasoline can be purchased with Scrip.

 

Scrip comes in the form of gift certificates or gift cards for shops and restaurants around town. Pennekamp buys the Scrip at a discounted rate and sells the Scrip to you at face value. The difference between the face value and the discounted rate is the profit that goes to Pennekamp.

 

So the next time you go shopping, out to eat, or to the gas station, pre-pay for your purchases by buying a Scrip card through the Pennekamp PTA and you’ll be donating to your school and enriching your child’s education without spending an extra penny. Scrip is also a great gift!

 

Participating in Scrip is easy…if every family ordered $100 of Scrip each month, Pennekamp would earn over $32,000!
