eScrip Program
eScrip is a resource for fundraising in which participating businesses contribute a percentage of your grocery loyalty cards, credit card and debit/ATM card purchases to the school, group or organization of your choice.
Here’s How It Works
You register any one or all of your existing grocery loyalty, debit and credit cards for use in the program.
Participating merchants will make contributions to your chose groups, based on purchases made by you, just by using the card you have registered.
If you like to shop online, go to the eScrip Online Mall first to see if your retailer participates in the eScrip program. If you go to the website of the retailer through the eScrip Online Mall and pay with a registered credit card, your purchase will earn credits. Some examples of participating retailers: Walmart.com, Land’s End, Eddie Bauer, Vitacost.com and more.
Your purchases are tracked and available to you online, allowing you to see just how much you are earning on behalf of the Booster organization!
You may want to investigate the eScrip Credit Card to boost the contributions going to your child’s band account. At the end of the year, eScrip will total all of your purchases and the earnings (on a sliding scale of .5% - 2%) will be sent to the Boosters. It's a powerful fundraising alternative that helps suport Band and pageantry that involves no selling!
How to Register
It’s that time again!!

Participation in this offer is easy. Parents simply take their student(s) to their local Ralphs Pharmacy and say they are there for the Tdap shot. They will need to provide the name of the school in order for the school to earn the $5 donation.
