The city of Manitou Springs has been reimbursing 50 percent of what someone pays for parking on any applicable day through Jan. 1, if they donate a toy, sports ball or canned food. Here’s how it works:
- Pay for parking and save your receipt;
- Bring a toy, canned food or sports ball to the Mobility & Parking Department (606 Manitou Ave.); the office is open 8 a.m.-5 p.m. weekdays; and
- Parking staff will reimburse you for 50 percent of what you paid for parking on the applicable day.
This offer is available once per day.
All donated toys and sports balls will be given to the Manitou Springs Police Department to hand out to youth in need. All donated canned food will go to St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church food pantries.
Donation reimbursements will be available until 5 p.m. Friday, Jan. 13.
