What is 1st Tix
Who We Serve
How Attending Events Helps
We know that strong family bonds and community support are essential tools for 1st responders as they navigate through their dangerous and often traumatic professions. Positive social support buffers against stress and is associated with better psychological and physical functioning. Attending events initiates positive social interactions helping to foster and maintain meaningful relationships. Having a strong social network also protects against isolating tendencies which can increase depression and anxiety symptoms.
1st Tix offers such a diverse range of events that it is easy and appealing for 1st responders to use our services, regardless of age or physical ability. We make it possible for retired responders to take their grandchildren to Disney on Ice, for a family to enjoy an afternoon together cheering on their local team or to experience to magic of the Nutcracker ballet. Vet Tix offers multiple tickets allowing 1st responders to go with family and other responders. Repeated experiences at a range of events helps veterans build a better social structure, both within their families and their communities. The overall result is a higher quality of life.
Why do our Donors Love Us?
1st Tix enriches 1st responders' lives, but we are also a benefit to donors. Since 1st Tix is part of Veteran Tickets Foundation, a 501c3 non-profit foundation, individual ticket holders and businesses can receive tax deductions for their donations.
The 1st Tix system is transparent. We are independently GAAP audited and have been at 96.5% to program or above each year. Venues, artists, teams know that their tickets are used by 1st responders. Our verification system ensures that only qualified people get access to tickets and discounts. We provide easy methods to donate shipped, will-call, print at home, or mobile delivery, with complete tracking along the process.
Spotlight Donor Feedback

"The University of Wyoming really appreciates our partnership with VetTix. They've helped legitimize our "Seats for Soldiers" ticket donation program. We always have a great redemption rate and the feedback we receive via VetTix from those that use the tickets is invaluable. We're able to pass this feedback along to our supporters and it is a no-brainer for them to continue and often times increase their participation. More than anything, it is a convenient process to provide what we hope is an enjoyable experience to current and Veteran military members - a very small gesture for those we appreciate so much!

Feedback
Jeremy says:
My wife and I were extremely grateful for the tickets. Not only was it a blessing for us, we were able to help some students that were from out of country and were not aware of the ticket process and were going to miss their first game. It was a great time and a great win by the Texans. Bleed Purple - TSU Alumni 09 and 17

Dear Live Nation, I want to sincerely thank you for your generous donation of tickets through 1st Tix for the Eladio Carrión concert. Your support made it possible for me to attend and enjoy an amazing experience that I would not have had otherwise. Your generosity and commitment to giving back to service members and first responders is deeply appreciated. It’s moments like these that remind us we’re valued and supported by the community.
