Louisiana will soon be offering citizens new license plates for their vehicles. The new plates will read, "I'm Cajun and proud" or "I'm Creole and proud."

As of tomorrow, August 1st, residents in Louisiana can start purchasing license plates that say, "I'm Cajun and proud" or "I'm Creole and proud." The new plates will cost $15 a year, on top of any other standard charges.

What's really cool about these new plates is that the proceeds collected are going to the Council for the Development of French in Louisiana. The proceeds will fund scholarships for “La Fondation Louisiane for the Escadille Louisiane” program.
