MEDICINE HAT, AB – Alberta Health Services is reviving a campaign that takes the sting out of getting a parking ticket at AHS facilities.
The Toys for Tickets campaign allows people to donate a new, unwrapped toy rather than paying the fine for tickets issued between Nov. 14 and Dec. 16. AHS says the toys will be donated to various children’s foundations and charity organizations to be given to children throughout the province.
Recommended donations from AHS include books, art supplies, science kits, electronics, headphones, Lego sets, portable DVD players, rattles, baby toys, journals, activity books, crayons, colouring books, and gift cards for grocery stores and restaurants (for families). Toys should be in the original packaging, and for ages newborn to 17 years. The value of each toy must be at least $25.
“We paused the Toys for Tickets campaign during COVID-19 but, given its past success and positive reception, we are happy to launch it once again this holiday season,” says Nick Ternovatsky, director of parking at AHS.
