Parking for Hope

Next date: Thursday, December 18, 2025 | 12:00 AM to Thursday, December 25, 2025 | 11:59 PM

The City of Santa Cruz, in partnership with the Downtown Association of Santa Cruz, will host the eleventh annual Parking for Hope downtown holiday parking campaign from Thursday, Dec. 18, through Thursday, Dec. 25, 2024. During the campaign, proceeds from downtown street parking meters and ParkMobile stations will be donated to Hope Services, a local nonprofit organization.

For more than 25 years, Hope Services has helped keep Pacific Avenue and other downtown Santa Cruz streets clean while providing training, employment, and support services to adults with developmental disabilities.

Please note that regular payment is still required at all City parking meters and ParkMobile stations during the Parking for Hope campaign.
