LICENSE TO THRIVE
Here’s something we hope to see a lot more of. The Charleston, South Carolina chapter of Surfrider Foundation teamed with the state’s Grand Strand chapter to create these customized license plates which features waves, sand, sea oats, water drops and the letters “KC” for the nonprofit’s motto, “Keepers of the Coast.” The plates, which went on sale at State Department of Motor Vehicles offices last week, cost $65 in addition to the regular motor vehicle registration fee and are valid for two years. A portion of the fees will go to each chapter for environmental projects and education initiatives. No word yet if any other states plan to follow suit.
