Hello!

We have more exciting news! The Office of Motor Vehicles is currently in the final testing phase of a specialty license plate for Autism Society Louisiana State Chapter, Inc.! This plate will be available in the near future for production and sale to the general public, probably by mid-January, 2020.

Prior to this, we have the opportunity to auction off the numbers of the first 100 license plates as a fundraiser for our nonprofit organization.

We held the first phase of this auction in August 2019. Forty-one (41) out of the initial one hundred (100) plate numbers were bid on and that information was supplied to OMV. These plate numbers are not displayed on this current auction.

Before the plates become available to the general public, a second phase of the auction is being held to auction off the remaining 59 plates.

Please take careful note of the specifics of this exciting auction:

Beginning date/time: 9:00 A.M. Friday, November 1, 2019

Ending date/time: 11:59 PM Sunday, December 15, 2019

Auction link/ Vendor: Charity Auctions Today

This auction is specific to the remaining numbers of the first 100 license plates. Once the auction has closed, information on the winner of the bid for each plate number in this second phase will be supplied to the OMV.

The bidding is for reserving a desired number and does not include the price of the specialty license plate itself. The price of specialty plates can vary slightly at local OMV offices.

Winning bidders will be notified regarding when to contact OMV to order their license plate. Please do not contact the OMV prior to receiving this information.

Bidding for each plate number begins at $50. Bidding will continue from 9:00 A.M. Friday, November 1st through 11:59 PM Sunday December 15th , so there will be multiple opportunities to submit a bid!

Once the license plates are released for sale to the general public around mid-January 2020, Autism Society Louisiana State Chapter, Inc. will receive $50 per quarter for each plate sold during that quarter. This is on going, and will also continue when the license is renewed.

This is a wonderful fundraising opportunity and will support the mission and vision of the Autism Society. It will go to support advocacy, education, information and referral, support, and community awareness at the state and local affiliate levels.

Our Mission: Improving the lives of all affected by autism.

Our Vision: The Autism Society envisions a world in which individuals and families living with autism are able to maximize their quality of life, are treated with the highest level of dignity, and live in a society in which their talents and skills are appreciated and valued 

Thank you for all you do!
