RW News: Get your FAMU Tags Here!

The Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles is pleased to inform you of an exciting new opportunity for Florida A&M University students, staff, faculty, administrators and friends.

The department offers specialty license plate gifts certificates. This new program allows anyone to purchase a specialty license plate as a gift for a motor vehicle registrant.

What does this mean? Individuals can purchase a FAMU license plate for anyone! (Well actually any Florida motorist, but it’s still cool!)

This new gift certificate program works much like any gift certificate. Upon payment of the annual use fee, a gift certificate may be purchased at an authorized motor vehicle office for any of the 104 specialty license plates currently available in Florida. At the time of purchase, a receipt will be provided and a credit will be issued in the name of the gift recipient, which can then be redeemed by the recipient at the time the specialty license plate is purchased. You do not have to purchase and redeem the certificate at the same office.

Proceeds from the FAMU tag go to the FAMU Foundation, Inc. The foundation was established with the specific mandate to serve as a custodian of contributions from the private sector, alumni, friends, and industry. The Foundation receives, invests and administers funds. In addition, the Foundation acts as a trustee and exercises in general the powers of a not-for-profit organization under the laws of Florida.
