Parking Services launches Donations 4 Citations program
K-State Parking Services is partnering with Cats' Cupboard and Student Governing Association to launch a new program called Donations 4 Citations. Students, faculty and staff who receive a parking citation can have it "forgiven" by donating to Cats' Cupboard. To qualify for citation forgiveness, you must donate 10 or more nonperishable food items or hygiene products from the following list:
- White rice, bag
- Red lentils, bag
- Marinara sauce, jar
- Laundry detergent
- Vegetable oil
- Pineapple, can
- Jelly or jam
- Ketchup or mustard
- Peaches, can
- Shampoo
Only specific types of citations are eligible for the Donations 4 Citations program. These include a violation warning, expired meter violations, unpaid parking, unregistered vehicles, improper parking and overtime parking. Not all citations qualify for this program. Please note that you are limited to one forgiveness per academic year.
If you would like to have your citation forgiven through the Donations 4 Citations program, please bring a qualifying citation along with your 10 approved donation items to the Parking Services office, located to the right of the entrance on the first floor of K-State's Parking Garage, during regular business hours.
