St. Matthew Catholic School
eScrip Group ID – 119130435

Earn money for St. Matthew's electronically.  Register online or download the registration form (.pdf format) to participate in eScrip. After registering either your grocery loyalty cards (like the red Safeway Club Card), and/or your credit card or debit/ATM cards, you'll be earning money for the school every time you shop at any participating eScrip merchants.  eScrip automatically tracks your contributions and sends the school a monthly statement of how much each individual subscriber has spent.

Renewal of Safeway Club Cards
(This applies to all Safeway Stores, including VONS and Pavilions)
Safeway is requiring all Club Card members to renew their commitment to shopping at Safeway for the eScrip program by November 1st. This is an annual renewal (every year between September 1st and October 31st) which will require either your phone number registered with eScrip, or your Safeway Club card number.

To renew your Safeway Club Card, visit www.escrip.com and click on "Yes, Renew".

If your Safeway Club card is not renewed by November 1st, your Safeway purchases will not be tracked for your contributions to St. Matthew's. It is possible to renew your Safeway card after November 1st, however the tracking will begin on the date you renew.

Renewal is required only for eScrip supporters who signed up before August 1st of the previous year.

Update your eScrip Account
It is important to keep your eScrip profile up-to-date by making sure all registered cards and expiration dates are current. From the eScrip web site, click on my eScrip.

Here are some of the many benefits to keeping your eScrip profile updated: view monthly purchase reports check expiration dates on registered credit/debit cards update any registered credit card numbers that may have changed For example, If you suddenly see a considerable drop in your eScrip purchases from one month to the next, it could be due to one of the following: you have not renewed your Safeway card your credit/debit card has expired and your profile needs to reflect the new expiration date your credit card number has changed and your profile needs to be updated with the new number the merchant you have purchased from is no longer an eScrip participating merchant

Other eScrip Supporters
Remember that friends and other family members can always help with your Scrip commitment! If they are also Safeway shoppers, have them register with eScrip and support St. Matthew's. Don't forget to contact the Scrip committee to let us know of your other eScrip supporters. If they are already registered with eScrip, please pass the renewal information to them.

Here's a Quick Tip:
Since the renewal process is annual, if you have eScrip-registered friends and family members helping you with your commitment, keep a list of their Safeway cards and/or registered phone numbers. You can then renew for yourself and your supporters all at the same time!

eScrip and Macy's
(This currently applies to Macy's in California, Nevada, Hawaii, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, Minnesota and Guam)
Macy's is now an eScrip participating merchant. If you have a Macy's charge card, or a Macy's VISA, go to the eScrip web site and register it. Then use your registered card when you shop at Macy's and you'll get credit toward your Scrip commitment. St. Matt's can receive up to 6% of your monthly Macy's purchases!

Remember:

• You must register your Macy's charge card or Macy's VISA with eScrip
• Use the card for your Macy's purchase and get eScrip credit
We also recommend you read the eScrip web site for more details regarding the Macy's Shop for Education Program.

St. Matthew Catholic School
Organization ID – 538

Nob Hill Foods, along with Raley's and Bel Air, has introduced a new paperless scrip program called the Quality of Life Program. It makes it easier for you to support St. Matthew's without having to purchase paper scrip ahead of time.

Request Quality of Life Card

• contact the Scrip committee via email with your request, or
• submit your request with your full name, your oldest child's name and class number to the Scrip folder in the School Office.

Because the cards we were given are already allocated for St. Matthew's, we're keeping a list of all cards issued and the card ID#'s. Once we receive your request, your card will be delivered either by mail or via the Wednesday envelope.

Register your Quality of Life Card

1. go to www.nobhill.com
2. under Your Lifestyle, click on Scrip Program and follow the instructions for New Guests
3. select the organization of your choice (maximum of three)
4. present your card to the cashier during your transaction each time you shop at any Raley's, Bel Air or Nob Hill Foods

Nob Hill provides monthly reports of supporter contributions, so your Nob Hill receipts no longer need to be submitted for Scrip credit. The reports do not give the exact amount spent, however we can make an estimation based on a given tiered formula.

St. Matthew Catholic School
Schoolpop ID – 0143250

Shop at participating merchants through the Schoolpop Web site. Be sure to designate St. Matthew Catholic School as your school of choice.

If, for whatever reason, you decide not to participate in any of the Scrip purchase options, you have the right to buy-out of your commitment. The current buy-out amount is $560 ($280 for single adult households), or 18% of the remainder of your annual Scrip commitment.

You can always ask the assistance of friends and relatives to help with your Annual Scrip Commitment. We simply need their full names to give your family credit for their contributions. Send an email to the Scrip Committee to let us know!

Remember, you can earn one Volunteer Hour for every $200 over your Scrip commitment that you purchase!

Three statements will be issued during the Scrip/Volunteer cycle, listing all purchases made and volunteer hours reported for each St. Matthew's family.
