SCRIP for Spring 2012

Work with Deb Nunes to learn how you can easily accrue money to offset your students marching band expenses.

What is SCRIP ?

It's an easy way to support the band and to help fund your student's marching band expenses.  When you order gift cards for stores that you might use, the SCRIP program rebates a certain portion to the Rustin band program. For every gift card purchased, there is an associated rebate. Fifty percent of that rebate goes directly into your student's account to help fund their marching band costs.  The other 50% goes into the general fund for the band program.

For example, cards are available for purchase from Giant (4%), Acme (4%), CVS (6%),Kohl's (4%), Home Depot (4%), Wawa (1.5%) Aerie (10%) Lands End (16%) and many more !!   So, if you spend $600 monthly on groceries, $100 on gas and $100 at Home Depot, with little effort on your part, you accrue $16.75 that month to fund your student's marching band camp expenses - without selling anything! The Band gains $16.75 (minus shipping costs) to support the general fund.

For those orders placed in June, 100% of the rebate goes to fund your student's marching band camp fees !
