South Dakota: 81 sets sold/renewed as of 6-27-05, raising $4,050, including donations (State Cost one time $10 fee & $50 to Planning Life for the maternity home).

The South Dakota Choose Life License Plate program is now available to all drivers in South Dakota.

First Step: Go to your local county court house and trade in your current license plates for organization plates. The organization plates are generic for all organizations so you do not need to request a specific organization. You will be charged a $10.00 fee when you exchange your current plates for organization plates. You will also be given new registration stickers at the same time, which is included in the $10.00 fee. If you have a new car to register, the State will not charge this additional $10.00 fee when you request the organization plates at time of registration. The State will charge you the normal fees for registering your vehicle however. Your court house will most likely not know who you should contact for the Choose Life decals yet, but don't worry, they are available through Planning Life in Sioux Falls.

Second Step: Contact Planning Life; 6705 W. 41st Street; Sioux Falls, SD 57106

Phone: 605 361-3275;  visit www.sdchoose-life.org.

The cost for a set (two) of decals is $50.00, and 100% of the money raised will be used to help open and support a maternity home in South Dakota.
