What is a Florida Specialty Plate?
A Florida Specialty Plate is a license plate that is different from the conventional tag that is issued at the time of vehicle registration in the state of Florida. Specialty Plates (over one hundred of them) each bear a different design, a different artistic theme.
These nifty tags, however, are more than just a pretty face. Behind the motif, for each individual plate, lies a cause, an organization, a foundation that directly benefits from the sale of the tag. For example, if you were to opt for a Miami Heat Specialty Plate, the proceeds of the extra fees paid for this design would be directed to all the charities and programs that your favorite sports team supports.
In essence, though a Specialty Plate is a fun, unique way to express your interests and hobbies, it also very much a way of doing good, of giving back.
