The legislature officially cleared our Peace Corps license plate for production. I am overwhelmed that we finally have a way to display our service on the road. Keep an eye out for details on how to order your set soon.

Started by RPCVs of Colorado 11 years ago

As you may know, Colorado has more Returned Peace Corps Volunteers (RPCVs) per capita than any other state and has three top-Peace Corps Volunteer producing universities (CU-Boulder, Colorado State University and Colorado College).

We want to join other like-minded organizations by providing an opportunity to show our Peace Corps pride on our vehicles! State statute requires 3000 signatures and legislative support, so we are aiming for 3000 signatures by December 1 just in time for the legislative session to start.

A couple of things you might be asking yourself:

1. When will I get to buy this plate? Our hope is that it will be ready for folks to order for their vehicles approximately a year from now. Once we have the 3000 signatures, we have to gain legislative support and approval. Then we will work with the Division of Motor Vehicles on the design and creation of the plate. We already have permission to use the Peace Corps logo!

2. Why do I have to give you my name and address and county of residence? These are all required by the State. We WILL NOT share your information or use it for any other purpose than this petition. We are using this platform because it is secure. Unfortunately, we are not able to offer a paper petition form at this time but this online system was chosen due to its security features. If you are uncomfortable using this system but still want to support this effort, email Arianne Burger at [email protected] and we'll be sure to keep you informed of any further opportunities to support this effort

Sign our petition to show your support of Peace Corps and its mission abroad and at home. You must be a Colorado resident to sign our petition. Thanks for your support!

Thank you for pursuing this. I would proudly display these plates on my car. Solomon Islands, 1985-1987

I am not a RPCV but I work with many of them and have utmost respect for their commitment to the future of our country and our planet. I strongly favor this proposal.

I'm currently a Peace Corps volunteer in Cambodia and will be home in less than a year. Would love the ability to get a license plate like this when I get home

This would be a really great way to honor RPCV's. My mother went to Cambodia at 63 years old as a PC volunteer and she would love to show her PCV pride!

I have been proud to have been one of the earliest volunteers. I was in an education project in Colombia from 1964 to 1966. The service certainly profoundly impacted my life and may, I can only hope, positively improved the learning of hundreds of grade school children.

As a returned Peace Corps Volunteer who served in Kyrgyzstan from 2005-2007, I strongly support a Peace Corps license plate. The organization does great work abroad and domestically and should be recognized for the 50 years of service work. Thank you.
