The Mississippi State Tax Commission has recently approved a new “Protect Dolphins” license plate that will benefit the Institute for Marine Mammal Studies (IMMS), a non-profit, 501 (c) (3) organization.  Proceeds from the sales of these plates will go towards the work IMMS does in dolphin research, stranded dolphin rescue and rehabilitation, marine conservation, and educational activities for students and the general public.

In order for the tags to be available through the Tax Commissioners office, 300 tags must be pre-sold in order to demonstrate that there is public interest in these plates and in protecting dolphins in Mississippi.*

Pre-order your “Protect Dolphins” tag by mailing an application (which may be downloaded from this link) along with the special tag fee of $31.00 (in cash, check or money order made payable to IMMS) to the following address:
IMMS
P.O. Box 207
Gulfport, MS 39502
