What if buying your everyday items like groceries, clothes, and food could help you raise money to pay for your tuition? Fresno Christian Schools offers a program called SCRIP, which allows anyone to buy gift cards and 2% of all purchases goes directly to your FCS account to help raise money to pay for your tuition. FCS has partnered with SCRIP program, Raise Right. Raise Right has been a helping organization for over 25 years now and has had over 100 million dollars worth of gift cards sold. They are the provider of all the gift cards that are stored at FCS.

The SCRIP program is one of FCS’ best kept secrets because small percentages of families have not taken advantage of this opportunity to support your school and raise money for tuition. The SCRIP program has been around Fresno Christian for at least 15 years and has endless earning potential because there is no limit to how much money you can raise. 

FCS registrar, Kerry Roberts, keeps all the gift cards in her office in the elementary building. Roberts explains how the SCRIP program is convenient for many families.

“Our SCRIP program is convenient for our FCS families because we keep the SCRIP in stock. You don’t have to go from store to store to purchase gift cards. And the bonus is families receive 2% credit toward their tuition on every dollar they spend on SCRIP.”

Roberts holds many gift cards in her collection like Target, Taco Bell, Ulta, DSW, Save Mart and their newest partner is Disney. Imagine going on a family vacation while raising money for your tuition. Bring cash or check only into Roberts office to buy your gift cards.
