The Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) announced that Cardinals Charities received more than $1 million from the sale of the team’s specialty license plates in 2015.
Of the 60 specialty plates issued in the state last year, the Cardinals plate led the way in charitable proceeds with $1,087,677. That was followed by the Veterans ($1,051,093) and Freedom plates ($521,424), both of which benefit the state veteran’s donation fund. In all, 63,981 Arizona Cardinals plates were issued in calendar year 2015, according to ADOT.
“Seeing so many vehicles on the road displaying their Cardinals plates is fantastic and the display of support is incredibly gratifying,” Cardinals president Michael Bidwill said.
