Minot Catholic Schools has an ongoing
fund raising program called Scrip. There are over 8,000 schools, churches, and
non-profit organizations involved in this proven non-profit movement.
Many of these organizations raise $50,000 - $100,000 a year.
We hope to achieve this same kind of success for the Minot Catholic
School System.
What is Scrip?
Scrip are gift certificates issued by many stores
in our community where you already shop regularly. Our organization
is able to buy these certificates at a negotiated discount and
exchange them for your cash at full face value. The discount,
which is from 2% to 40% is the contribution retained by Minot
Catholic Schools.
Is it easy to use?
Yes! Use Scrip just like cash. There is no difference between
Scrip
and cash when you go shopping, except you are using gift certificates
to purchase your items.
 What's the catch?
There isn't one! That's the great thing about using Scrip!
It doesn't cost you a thing! For example, you buy $500 worth
of Miracle Mart gift certificates from Scrip for one month's
worth of groceries. Our organization bought the certificates
for $475, so Miracle Mart, in essence, donated $25 to our school!
You receive $500 worth of certificates to buy $500 worth of groceries.
Where can I use Scrip?
There are currently over 50 restaurants, grocery stores, drug
stores, gas stations, and retail stores in our area where you
can use Scrip! Planning
a building project or home addition? Use Scrip at Menards! Redecorating
your home or office? Use Scrip at I.Keating Furniture World.

listing of the businesses and the discounts Minot Catholic Schools
can earn.
