Ames, Iowa (RI) — Iowans can now purchase a specialty license plate with a blank space that allows them to stick on a state-approved decal from any of several dozen non-profits. Tim Paluch, spokesman for LifeServe Blood Center, says his organization is offering the three-inch square decals for free after you purchase the new plate.
The DOT lists nearly 40 different decal options, from school booster clubs and veterans groups to the Boy Scouts and beekeeping.
LifeServe is a non-profit, community-based blood center that provides blood products to more than 175 hospitals primarily in Iowa, South Dakota, Nebraska, and Illinois.
The new decal plates have space for just five characters to the right of the sticker. The DOT says if the plate is requested at the time of the initial application for registration and certificate of title for the vehicle, there is no cost, though there’s a $5 replacement fee to switch from any plate type to a numbered decal plate.
