SCRIP PROGRAM
MAYO has partnered with the Great Lakes Scrip Center to offer a convenient fundraiser for students and families.
Q: What is scrip?
A: Traditional (paper) "Scrip" is simply another name for "Gift Certificates." If you have ever used a gift certificate, then you've used Scrip. Scrip can be used to purchase anything, from groceries, fuel, clothing, toys and cosmetics, to entertainment, electronics, or home improvement items.
When you buy SCRIP through MAYO, the merchants give MAYO a percentage of your purchase. So if you buy $50 worth of SCRIP, you get $50 worth of gift certificates at the merchants of your choice, and the merchants give MAYO a percentage - usually between 3 and 15 percent.
Q: How is scrip used? A: Just like cash. This means that you just present your SCRIP gift certificate for payment at the register without any restrictions.
Q: How Do I sign-up for scrip? A: Simply sign-up at: www.shopwithscrip.com

Q: How does scrip work at MAYO?
If the same 100 families also purchased additional consumables totaling $125 per family - things such as clothing, books, gifts, etc. - also at an average of about 5% rebate which they voluntarily allocate to MAYO, they would generate an additional $625 a week as a charitable donation to MAYO which is tax deductible...or $2,500 monthly, or $22,500 for the year!
Q: Can other members of my family or friends purchase Scrip through our program? A: Absolutely! We encourage you to extend this program to grandparents, aunts and uncles, friends, neighbors and co-workers. Just add their purchase to your order or have them sign-up at: www.shopwithscrip.com and indicate the MAYO Family Code.
Please note: Gift cards will only be delivered to MAYO, so it is the responsibility of a MAYO parent to pick-up those cards or have family or friends come to MAYO to pick-up.
Q: IS SCRIP TAX DEDUCTIBLE? A: Yes, if you voluntarily allocate your rebate to MAYO as a charitable donation. You will have that option on your SCRIP account. The agreement form is attached.

SUPPORT MAYO USING SCRIP
SCRIP - this fundraiser is easy. You can sign up at www.shopwithscrip.com and provide the MAYO number. Pick what stores you shop at regularly. Spend $50 at the shopwithscrip store and receive the same amount in gift cards for that store. The company then donates a portion of your purchase to MAYO. We will hold these in your tour account. Any funds that accrue in your scrip account can only be used for MAYO expenses. It is not redeemable for cash. You can also elect to donate a portion of that rebate to MAYO. This rebate helps MAYO and offers you a tax write-off. You still receive the full amount of your order.
