Pay UC parking fines for a good cause
UC Parking Services donates paid fines to St. George Interfaith Food Pantry ‘Food for Fines’ program
Event Information (passed)
Back for a fourth year, UC Parking Services is partnering with St. George Interfaith Food Pantry to bring back its “Food for Fines” campaign this spring. Anyone with a UC parking citation can participate in the spirit of giving during April by paying your parking fines online.
St. George Food Pantry provides items such as free food to those in the 45217, 45219 and 45220 communities, as well as to Hamilton County military veterans who are facing hardships and in need.
How it works: Once again, “Food for Fines” is virtual. To participate, UC parking citation holders should pay their violation fee(s) online by logging into their parking portal’s account, and choosing the “Food for Fines” option. In turn, Parking Services will make a St. George Interfaith Food Pantry donation that equals the citation’s total amount.
