Scrip

What is Scrip?

Scrip is a gift card that spends just like cash. It doesn’t cost you anything extra and no fees are deducted off of the card. A portion of your purchases are donated back to the school. It's a cost-free way to give to Meadows!

How do I use Scrip to make money for Meadows?

Two Ways:

  1. Purchase Gift Cards on shopwithscrip.com and they're delivered to you. Use those cards to purchase goods and services and a portion of that money goes to Meadows.
  2. Register your debit and credit cards on www.escrip.com. When you use those cards at participating merchants, a portion of that money also goes to Meadows.
  3. Make money for Meadows in other ways, like shopping at Ralphs, Manhattan Village, Office Depot, Target and Albertsons.


The new online scrip systems are fast and easy and will help save time, money and the environment by eliminating paper scrip order forms. Keep reading for details on how to sign up for these services!
