'Food for Fines' Returns to NMU

(Marquette, MI) - Northern Michigan University’s program to exchange parking ticket fines for food donations is back again this year.

“Food for Fines” gives individuals the opportunity to alleviate parking fines by contributing non-perishable food items or personal care products to the NMU Food Pantry. Students, faculty and the public who received a campus parking fine issued after August 8th of this year can erase $25 of the amount due by donating one full paper bag of items. The offer is limited to one citation. The NMU Police Department will accept donations from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. weekdays, through December 9th.

For more information, contact NMU Parking Services at 906-227-1476, or email parking@nmu.edu.
