This was the most magical experience we have ever been to in our lives. 5th ave theatre, if my daughter and I could afford to be patrons consistently, we would be for the rest of our lives! The venue, the cast, the musicians!!! everything was perfect. I was in actual tears. Performing is a huge part of both our lives and this was a gift I could never give on my own to my daughter! Thank you, thank you, from a single mom nurse, to you.

A huge thank you to San Diego FC for your incredible generosity in donating tickets for my family to attend the match on Saturday, August 23 against the Portland Timbers. The atmosphere inside the stadium was electric, the action on the field was nonstop, and even though the game ended in a tie, the energy from the crowd made it unforgettable. We had an absolute blast cheering on the team and making lasting memories with our cousins. Experiences like this bring family and community together, and we’re so grateful to be part of it. Thank you again for all you do to make San Diego proud—both on and off the field. We can’t wait to be back supporting the club!

Thank very much for providing me the opportunity to watch my favorite NFL team! I was not sure what to expect this being covered by 1sttix.org I was thinking I would be in the very last row of the stadium. To my surprise I was very close and on the 50 yard line! This is the closest I have ever sat at a NFL game although it was Preseason I love the seat and the experience.

Dear Donor’s, I want to sincerely thank you for gifting us the tickets to The Comedy Chateau. The night was truly wonderful. We laughed from start to finish and left with big smiles. It was such a refreshing experience to enjoy live comedy in such a lively, welcoming atmosphere. The performers were fantastic, and the whole evening was the perfect reminder of how special it is to share those joyful moments together. Your generosity gave us more than just a night out, it gave us memories we’ll hold onto. Thank you again for your kindness and thoughtfulness. With gratitude, William Batista

I can't thank you enough for the opportunity to see Cyndi Lauper on her farewell tour. I'm a nurse and my husband is former ems that is now disabled due to COVID. Our finances being what they are, we can't always afford to do special things like that, and you made it possible, thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Dear Live Nation, I just wanted to thank you for the tickets to Metallica. They are one of my favorite rock bands and to have the opportunity to see them was amazing. It was my husband's first time seeing them and your organization made this a special night for us to treasure always. I worked in law enforcement for 21 years as a detective seeing the worst of the worst. Music has always been my go-to for self-care and coping mechanisms. Rock music has always been part of that. Getting to see Metallica, feel the energy, and be part of something so much bigger that one person...being a Metallica fan is like being in a huge family. Everyone has their differences and struggles, but coming together in one night for a common goal to sing and have an escape for just a few hours is priceless. The concert was breathtaking and amazing. There was so many people with their young children. It was a huge family event. Everyone was super friendly with each other and socializing. I felt safe the entire time I was there which sometimes is a challenge when you are retired first responder who is always hyper vigilant. I will cherish this moment always and I am extremely grateful to you and 1st Tix for making it happen. Thank you!!

What an amazing event! Thank you to Ticketmaster and 1stTix for giving my 15 yr old son Daniel and I the experience that I currently cannot have afforded. You have truly given us more than concert tickets, you gave us a bonding experience that will last forever. Thank you and if ever I get a chance to “pay it forward” I certainly will. Ken, Daniel, Scott and Jen.

Dear Generous Donors, I wanted to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude to each of you for your incredible generosity in donating tickets for law enforcement first responders to attend a Braves game. Because of your kindness, my family and I were able to enjoy an experience that we otherwise would not have been able to afford. Most importantly, you gave my 13-year-old son—who is a huge baseball fan—the opportunity of a lifetime. He has dreamed of attending a live Braves game for as long as I can remember, and seeing the excitement on his face as he watched his favorite team in person was truly priceless. As you can see in his face on the attached photo, it was, without a doubt, a highlight of his young life and a memory our family will cherish forever. Thank you again for your thoughtfulness and for making such a special experience possible. Your support means more than you know. With heartfelt appreciation, The Youngbloods

To whom it May concern: I wanted to share my story and hope it helps to express the gratitude I have for your generosity. On June 16th 2023, my daughter (5 days before her 4th birthday) was camping with my ex husband and fell into a bonfire. She sustained third-degree burns to 30% of her total body service area. Unfortunately injury has caused her to have to undergo multiple corrective surgeries and treatments. This has caused a very significant financial impact on myself as a single mom and my family. On November 22, 2024 my daughter underwent another scar contracture release surgery where she was hospitalized unit at Loyola University Medical Center for four days. Her surgery required me to miss additional days of work and therefore the stress of the holidays began to take its toll. Your generosity allowed my family, the opportunity to tuck away all of the current strain that we have been facing and enjoy a magical evening watching the play of my daughter‘s favorite Disney princess. I cannot thank you enough for this wonderful evening and even begin to explain the happiness. It has brought myself and my family. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Desiree Lehr, RN

I was able to take my 3 sons to see this game last night for the first time ever. My sons are 7,6 and 3. My older sons ran the bases after the game was over too. Going to a blue claws game is always a great time and to share that with my sons is a big deal to my family. I am a single dad. My older son’s mother falsely accused me of child abuse and I lost my sons 2 weeks ago. I had to fight for them in court and got them back through a court order. This was the first weekend I had all 3 sons together in the past 4 weeks so it was even more special to spend time with them at the game last night. Thank you for this experience

I took my wife and kids to the Monster Jam event and we had a blast. Lately I haven’t been able to do much do to a broken leg due to an accident. This meant the world to me and the family as we got to spend time together watching an amazing show of very talented drivers and people. My 6 year old son said he had the time of his life and was extremely grateful for these tickets. My wife and daughter had a blast watching it too. I can’t write how grateful I am for these tickets.

The time spent with my grandson was priceless. He and his father were involved in a horrible accident last year. It resulted in his father being in the hospital most of the year and needing more surgeries. This time away together promotes healing of the soul. We are so carefree when we get a chance to get away from our daily stress. Thank you for making nights like this possible. We not only enjoy them, but need them. God Bless you for all you do.

When I met my Fiancés grandma the first thing we found we had in common was our love for Michael Buble!! I told her if he were to ever come out by us, that we would try to go. Unfortunately when tickets went on sale our budget was to tight to accommodate the purchase. When we were given this opportunity we screamed for joy!! I am BEYOND grateful for the generosity of this donation!! So many happy memories were made! And the epic part was Michael Buble was on our bucket list!! At 88 years old, I'm so thankful this was able to happen!! Again, thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

I want to thank Live Nation for truly making a difference in Vets & 1st Responders life. Music to my family is therapy. Live music brings people together. Complete strangers become friends for a night. A night people with one thing in common talk to each other. They sing and smile. Sometimes the friendships continue after the shows. These concerts allow us to forget our worries for a bit and smile. These tickets allow for a much needed escape from my service connected health issues and worries. Whether I'm at a heavy metal concert or an orchestra. Being at the shows is so therapeutic. I can't thank Live Nation and Vet Tix for helping to get families to events.
