Specialty tag raises funds for foundation
STARKVILLE – The Catch-A-Dream Foundation www.catchadream.org recently received legislative permission to offer a new license plate to raise funds for its mission of fulfilling the hunting- and fishing-related wishes of children with life-threatening illnesses.
The new specialty tag features the Catch-A-Dream Foundation logo. The tag fee is $31 annually in addition to the regular tag cost, $24 of which will go to the foundation.
“We must pre-order a minimum of 300 tags before the state will print,” said Marty Brunson, executive director of the Catch-A-Dream Foundation. “Funds generated through the specialty tag program provide once-in-a-lifetime hunting and fishing experiences for young people diagnosed with life-threatening conditions such as cancer and cystic fibrosis.”
The foundation will notify applicants when the tags can be picked up at their local tax collector’s office. For more information, or a copy of the application form, contact the foundation office at (662) 324-5700 or .
