SCRIP

SCRIP is a great program that earns money for our school at no cost to you. Just buy prepaid gift cards and shop as usual. We pre-purchase gift cards at a discount and sell them to you for face value.

Take Charge of Education, launched in April 1997, brings the Target tradition of giving to the heart of our communities. Since the program was launched, Target has donated over $154 million through fundraising dollars. Through the Take Charge of Education program, Target donates an equal amount to 1% of REDcard (Target Visa and Target Card) purchases made at Target and Target.com, and l/2% of Target Visa purchases made elsewhere, to Friends of Castle Heights. For some schools that is over $14,000 per year!

For example:

Gift cards are great for birthday gifts, teacher appreciation gifts, holiday gifts, and everyday shopping. You can purchase certificates before and after school on Fridays at the "Friends Table" in front of school, or contact Mei Wong at ScripGAL-CHS@yahoo.com or 310-213-5990. Orders can also be placed via completion of form and emailed to Mei, or dropped off at the Friends' mailbox in the Main Office.

Due to the currect economic recession, some stores have closed. For more information on this and how it may affect your scrip, please see "More information about Retailer Store Closings" and/or the Snopes website, which can dispel rumors and give accurate information about store closures.
