The Scratch Card looks like and functions just like a lottery scratch ticket … but in reverse. The Customer scratches a spot and a dollar amount is revealed. (This varies from 50 cents to $3.00.) For instance: A person may scratch two spots that reveal $2.00 and 75 cents. That person would donate $2.75 to the . Non-profit. Each card is worth $100.00.
(When the Scratch Card is empty (completely scratched out) … $100.00 would have been donated to the Non-profit Organization.)
When the Customer gives the scratched out amount to the Non-profit … the Customer then receives one free Coupon.
The Coupon Book contains 30 discount slips. Each coupon (slip) has money saving discount deals from nine different area businesses. The Customer takes the Coupon to the area Business and redeems their discount.
When a Non-profit Organization chooses to participate in the “Support – Scratch -Save” Partnership Fundraiser they will receive 10 Scratch Card Books (which each contain one Scratch Card and 30 Coupons). The Non-profit hands out one book to a Member. These 10 Members talk to friends, family and conduct fundraising drives in their different neighborhoods. When all empty 10 Books are returned … $1,000 dollars would have been raised.
The Businesses gain support from the Community when the discount Coupons are redeemed. The Non-profit Organization gains support from the Community resident when they scratch and donate. And the Community Resident gains a great big smile when they scratch and save money with their discount Coupon. Everybody wins with “Support – Scratch – Save”.
