FREE MONEY!!! The SCRIP program consists of many different “gift cards/certificates” that Corpus Christi is able to purchase at a discount. The SCRIP office sells them to you at face value, so you are not paying any more money than you would be paying at the store. You will have an account set up in our computer system that records your purchases and accumulates a credit for you to use for tuition or REC fees at ANY Catholic grade school, high school or college at ANY time. You can accumulate credits for years before you use them, so if you just had a baby and are not even thinking about school yet, you can start using this program to accumulate credits so that when the time comes, you will be ready! Or you can surprise your children and start an account now and when that first grandchild goes to school you might be able to cover their first tuition payment for them. What a gift…and it costs you NOTHING! Office Hours: Monday – Friday 9am to 12:30pm Questions? Call Mary Ellen at 215-362-0104.
