Reentry Success Story!!

Fred & Donna Kostrick are owners of a unique shop known as "License Plate Heaven".  Old scrap license plates are renewed and given a new life as a host of new and very fun promotional products.  A visit and tour to the MSI License Plate Operation inspired the owners to create a 501(c)3 non-profit to help paroling inmates get a fresh start in life.  Former prisoner Mr. Sims featured in the video successfully gained employment with the company and has become one of their most valuable employees.  The video was created as part of the 2020 NCIA Webinar presentation topic on Awards, Recognition and Promotional Products.  (Left:) Interview with Will Rondeau, former License Plate Operations Manager Now Happily Retired!!, and a former prisoner reentry success recipient.

In addition to producing over 1.5 million license plates annually, MSI’s License Plate Factory’s creative designers and craftsmen produce a wide range of  promotional items such as awards, business boosters and employee incentives.  We welcome the opportunity to discuss any special items our customers might want that would align with our capabilities. Consider that by engaging with the services of the MSI  License Plate Factory you will be helping  individuals develop life skills that will prepare them to become successful, productive  members of society. Through employment with MSI, prisoners at the  License Plate Factory develop both hard (industry-specific) and soft (social) skills, preparing them for employment after incarceration.
