SCRIP
Because of the Martin Luther King holiday on Monday, Scrip orders will be due by noon on Tuesday, January 17th. The orders will be processed by Thursday, Jan 19 by 2:30pm.
I just finished processing rebates for April through December. If you are a Scrip participant who elected to use your Scrip profit sharing towards your tuition and you pay tuition monthly or semi-annually, you will be receiving a letter from Susie Graves with your rebate amount. For those participants who pay annually, your profit sharing will carry over to next year's tuition.
The Scrip program raised over $7,500 for the period between April 20 and Dec 28, 2011. About $3,700 of the money raised goes to the St. Jude PTO. Over $3,500 will be credited to individual family tuition. The St. Jude Church Social Justice and Outreach Programs will receive $284.92 and St. Jude Tuition Assistance fund will receive $97.32.
Between April 20 and Dec 28, 2011, the average Scrip participant raised over $120. The Scrip program doesn't cost the participant any extra money, because they pay the face value for the gift card they purchase and get to spend that same amount at the store (i.e. $100 Speedway gas card). If you would like to start buying Scrip cards, see the St. Jude PTO page (http://www.sjsindy.org/PTO.html) and view the Scrip information on the right-hand side of the page.
