Posted
Guest Commentary by Bill Lamoreaux, Arizona Department of Transportation
Arizona motorists now have four new choices to show their support for community organizations while on the roadways and highways.
Thunderbirds Charities, Arizona 4-H, Arizona Education and Congenital Heart Defect Awareness plates are available, along with many other options to display what is important to you.
Placing a specialty license plate on your car can be a fun way to show off your fandom, interests and past experiences. Did you know that specialty plates also raise money for charities in Arizona?
That’s right, for most specialty plates, $17 of the $25 initial application and annual renewal fees goes straight to charity. In fact, nearly 740,000 specialty plates helped generate more than $12 million for charitable causes across Arizona in the past 12 months.
Some of the most popular specialty license plates include:
Veterans
First responders
Arizona Cardinals
Arizona Highways
Military support/Freedom
In fact, the Veterans, First Responder, Arizona Cardinals and Arizona Highways plates each generated more than $1 million in revenue this past fiscal year.
To order a specialty plate and support a great cause, visit azmvdnow.gov, an MVD office or Authorized Third-Party office.
