Help CPS school supply drive by paying your UC parking citations

UC Parking Services will match all paid parking fees for CPS school supplies in July

UC Parking Services will partner with Cincinnati Public Schools this summer for the “Pens, Pencils & Paper for Parking Citations” school supply drive. Anyone with an unpaid UC parking citation can fulfill two goals in one by participating in this premier school supply drive:

  • Check one more bill off your list 
  • Help students in the community have the supplies they need for success in the upcoming school year!

How the “Pens, Pencils & Paper for Parking Citations” program works:
During July, UC parking citation holders should pay their violation fee(s) online by logging into their
parking portal account, and choosing the "School Supplies Drive" payment option. In turn, UC Parking Services will match the citation amount with a donation to Cincinnati Public Schools.

The “Pens, Pencils & Paper for Parking Citations” program will run July 5 through July 30. For more information, please visit uc.edu/about/parking, or call (513) 556-2283.
