FUNDRAISING FOR YOUR STUDENT MUSICIAN & BOPS
BOPs fundraisers directly benefit Haverford instrumental music students by providing musician uniforms, extra practice instruments, assistance with scholarships, community outreach, and personal trip-account accumulation. Your participation in our fundraising programs is an easy way to help our music department and your student.
When you do Grocery Scrip or Raise Right gift card fundraising, half of the bonus BOPs receives goes into your musician's trip account. What you raise for your musician can be used towards BOPs dues, Middle School trips, High School trips and senior banquet tickets. Check out the Music Trip Information page to find out how it works for you.

Grocery scrip are gift cards to area grocery stores. When you buy them from BOPs, you build your child's trip account while supporting the Haverford School District's music programs.
BOPs sells grocery scrip year-round for the following grocery and specialty food stores:
Giant
Shop Rite
Acme
Colonial Village ($25 cards)
Young's Produce on Eagle Road ($5 coupons)
You buy denominations of $50 and $100 (exceptions noted) and use them like money at the check-out. Every $100 of scrip you buy puts $3 into your child's trip account and $2 into the BOPs General Fund, which supports the student musicians in the School District.
Grocery scrip can be purchased from the coordinators and at all band and orchestra concerts. It is easy.
BOPs also sells $6 coupons for Wawa hoagies and $2 from each sale goes directly to the student’s trip account!
Grocery scrip and Wawa hoagie coupons are available by contacting:
Rachel Birch (groceryscrip@hhsmusic.org)
