BBCH Specialty License Plate
You Drive, Kids Thrive!
“My son, J.J.’s, medical journey has not been an easy one, but we are thankful for BBCH every day. Seeing those BBCH plates on the road always brings a smile to our faces. To think that that family is part of the reason J.J. is able to receive such amazing care or able to enjoy the extra surprises that help make long hospital stays more bearable! They may not know our family personally, but they care enough to help J.J. and all the kids at BBCH. It means the world to our family to have those signs of support as we drive to the hospital.” –Kelly Capener, J.J.’s mom

Frequently Asked Questions
You can purchase a BBCH passenger plate at every local Motor Vehicle Branch Office and select Town Offices in Maine.
Yes! As long as your vanity plate number includes no more than six numbers or letters and a dash or space. (EXCEPTION: If the vanity plate is duplicated in another Maine license plate style option, it will not be available. This is a statute designed to eliminate potential risk of misidentification).
Sadly, no. Low digit and out-of-rotation plate numbers are any plate numbers between 1 through 9999 and 1A - 99A through 1ZZ - 99ZZ.
