Pay off your parking tickets by donating toys. No tickets? Donate today, and make a difference.

Parking Services kicks off its annual Toys for Tickets campaign Nov. 2 - Dec. 4

The need for donations is even greater due to the impact of COVID. Parking Services is again assisting the community by dismissing outstanding parking tickets in exchange for donations. This year however, Toys for Tickets goes virtual.

New this year, in order to have your parking ticket(s) dismissed, donate the amount of your ticket(s) online, and Parking Services will do the toy shopping for you. If you are paying your ticket online, and would like your payment to go as a donation to "Toys for Tots," please be sure to check the donation box while making your payment choice.

No ticket? Parking Services is accepting toy donations for the “Toys for Tots” organization. Donate today, and get entered to win three free months of parking.

Toy donations will also be accepted in the original packaging with its receipt at Parking Services in 4 Edwards Center, MainStreet Connection Center in TUC and Campus Recreation Center. The toy receipt must be equal to or greater than the amount of your ticket.
