My name is Technical Sergeant Bradley Molnar. I have served in the Air Force for over 12 years and I will be returning from my 4th deployment this month. I would love to take my family to see the Michigan State Spartans play the Michigan Wolverines at Spartan stadium on October 20th 2018. I am a huge Michigan State Spartan fan and my wife loves the Michigan Wolverines.

I am requesting 4 tickets to the Michigan State vs Michigan football game on October 20th, 2018.

Disneyland Family Vacation - 5-day park hoppers

My name is Major Ryan White. I am currently deployed and part way through what will be a long 8 month separation. I am leaving behind my beautiful wife and two kids with a promise to make up the months of memories and moments when I return.

When I return I fully intend on taking my family on a much deserved vacation to California's Disneyland. I am asking for 3 tickets to a 5 day Disneyland adventure where my family and I can relax, recovery, and recoup some missed moments together. Thank you for all of your support and God bless.

Post Deployment Disney World Trip!

Hi, My name is Andrew Baker and I am currently serving in the Air Force. I left my family to go to Afghanistan for 6 months and would really love to reward them by taking them on a Disney World vacation after having to adjust and live life while I was gone. My wife fostered two other children along with having our three while I was gone and I would love to be able to take her on the vacation of her dreams. After being gone for such time I feel this would be the perfect getaway to bond again with my family and have some much needed rest. Thank you for your consideration in helping me give my family their dream.

Disney World park hopper tickets

I am Chief Petty Officer Christopher Fisk and have been in the Navy for 12 years. I have a beautiful family of 6. My wife Hannah and my children Heaven, Italia, Derek, and Maddox. I recently just got back from my deployment to Iraq and Kuwait. This past deployment was the hardest one to date since I deployed when my youngest son was just 3 months old. My wife had to take care of three children plus a newborn all by herself during my deployment. We just recently moved to Florida from California and the children are having a hard time making friends at their new schools and also getting adjusted. Since I have been back from deployment our family has not been able to spend quality time together due to our PCS among other things. It would mean everything to my family to be blessed with this and we would love to experience the magical moments Disney World has to offer. A trip to Disney World would be the ultimate blessing for our family as it allows us to spend quality time together and reconnect. Please consider this request as you would be making a true impact in our lives and we would be forever grateful. Thank you in advance and God bless.

Disney World Vacation for Family

My name is SSG Joseph Weghorst. I'm in the Army with 12 years of service, I'm on my 4th deployment, 3 to Iraq and 1 to Afghanistan. This deployment I am in Iraq and have been away for 5 months, prior to this I did one 15 month tour to Iraq, and 12 to Iraq and Afghanistan. I joined the Army when my kids were 5 and 3 and have spent all four of my deployments away from them. This year is my daughters senior year of High School and I have missed it, but should be home just in time for her graduation and would like to take her to Disney after graduation and before college. For block leave prior to this deployment I was suppose to take her to Disney, but my mother tested positive for breast cancer so we cancelled our Disney trip and visited my mother.

Disney World - Post Deployment with my family

I am CW3 Dennis White, a member of the Indiana National Guard with the 38th Sustainment Brigade, currently serving in Kuwait in support of several operations. I have been blessed to serve my State and this great Nation for over 23 years. I am married to Angela and have three boys Shad, Jaden and Brenner as well as a sweet girl, Brayleigh. All of my kids and especially my wife, have made countless sacrifices in order for me to serve. I have missed countless anniversaries (2 back to back these past years), birthdays, and a majority of my son's Senior year in High School. I also coach sports for my hometown school, Paul Hadley Middle School, as a lay coach and have missed this years sports teams and the ability to coach and mentor young student athletes. I really want to represent them and my family well while serving and want to take my family to Disney as a thank you for their enduring sacrifices they make so that I can do the job I love. I would love to take the family to Disney World after my deployment. The past year even for the train up has been non-stop with over 8 weeks on and off of training and now this deployment. Would love to be able to spend time with my family of 6 at Disney World. We have had to table trips because of many other time demanding events and need some away time as a family. It would be a true privilege to receive this Wish of 6, 5 day Armed Forces Salute tickets in order to treat my family to a well deserved get away. Thank you for your consideration and thank you for supporting this who serve.

Ohio State vs Michigan football

My name is SGT Bruce Messer. I am born and raised in Ohio and have always been a Buckeyes fan. I've never in my life been to a game in person. I've always dreamed of going to a game and of course the ultimate game would be against our biggest rival. I have friends I would love to take. I'm a disabled veteran of combat and can't work. I am married with 6 children. 4 of which are still in school and two that have graduated, one that is engaged to be married. I live off of disability and SSI, and my wife works full time to make sure we have extra cash after bills. We focus all of our funds to bills and our kids so buying tickets is out of the question for me.

Minnesota Vikings Game

My name is SSgt Luke Jones and I am currently deployed. I have a lifelong dream to take my wife and my parents to see a Vikings game in Minnesota. We are HUGE Vikings fans and it would be a dream come true. Since I was a child I’ve always wanted to beat the drum or blow the horn before the game. November 24 is my wife’s birthday and I would love to take her to the November 26 Sunday Night game vs the Green Bay Packers. March of last year my brother passed away unexpectedly and at the one year mark I was deploying. It has been a rough year on my whole family and my biggest wish would be to bring smiles to my parents faces.

DisneyWorld Florida with my family

My name is SPC Angel Ramirez. I have a 100% disability rating because of a leg injury and PTSD. I was wounded in 2008 in Iraq and had 2 children at the time. When I got back state side my wife and daughters (were babies then) stood by me and tried to help me recover physically and mentally with no luck. I had lost friends and lost myself on the battle field. My wife stood by the hardest time of my life. I had always promised my daughters that one day we would go see the "princesses" but hard times just wouldn't let up. We were blessed with a son 5yrs ago and that pushed my children's promise back further. My two daughters are 11 (twins) and my son is 5 yrs old. If it wasn't for their love and my wife believing in me I wouldn't be in this happy place I am now. I was slowly killing myself with doubt, drinking and not taking care of myself. I was depressed. They stuck by me through my lowest and I would love to show my appreciation to them and go the Disney World and eat with the Princesses. I think it would be a blessing to look back on where we came from and open a new/better chapter in our lives. I would love for my my family of 5 to go to Florida Disney World and eat with the princess. It would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Disney World Vacation

My name is SSG Ryan Bock, I recently returned from South Korea being away from my children and not seeing them for 1 year. I am recently divorced and happily remarried and now am the father to 4 wonderful children ranging in ages from 7-11 (2 Boys - 2 Girls). My family, with our conflicting schedules due to custody agreements have never been able to take all 4 of the children anywhere together nor spend holidays together. I would like the chance to take all 4 children and my wonderful wife who is currently going to school to become a doctor to Disney World. With my wife's school schedule she is unable to work currently and also a 100% Disabled Veteran after her 7 years of service. Granting this wish would be an amazing sight to see all 4 children together having the time of their life in the happiest place on earth. Thank you for your help sincerely. I will need 6 tickets total. One for each family member.

Disneyland park hopper passes for the holidays

My name is 1LT Steven Sexton and I am currently deployed with the 79 Infantry Brigade Combat Team in support of Operation Joint Guardian. As it stands now, I will be home just in time for Christmas, therefore my wish is for 4 Disneyland/California Park hopper tickets so I can celebrate a special holiday season with my family when I return. Once this deployment is completed; of my first 29 months in the service I will have been away from my family for 16 of those months. Through it all, my wife has been very supportive each time I have had to leave for deployment, schools or state emergency, all while holding down a full-time job as a first grade teacher and taking care of our two energetic daughters. So this wish is not just for me but for my family who I believe deserve a special gift for the holidays. Thank you.

Harry Potter World After Deployment for family of seven.

My name is CPT James Houston. Our family has just survived a year long deployment. This included a move across the country for my wife and five teens while I was away. They are all avid Harry Potter fans and I'd love to create a memorable, relaxing experience to have a delightful time together with one week for all 7 of us at Orlando Universal Studios' "Wizarding World of Harry Potter". Our kids have always dreamed of going but we have never been able to make that happen. Would love to have this trip be our Christmas this year. Thank you so much.

Universal Studios Wizarding World of Harry Potter 4-day passes

My name is SFC Kevin Dewey. I have been active duty Army for 22 years and just completed my 13th deployment. This deployment was extra hard on my wife and daughter as they gave up everything to join me at my new duty station just months before I left for Iraq. My wife has been unsuccessful in finding a job in our new town and has been worrying constantly about every little thing. She supports me in everything I do without complaint. My family shares a love of everything Harry Potter. It is my wish to take them to Universal Studios and Universal Adventure Island to go to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter at the parks. I would love to be able to take them during the Christmas break as last Christmas was an exceptionally difficult one for many reasons. Christmas is supposed to be a time for families and I want to be able to take mine on a dream vacation to allow my wife time to relax and spend some much needed fun time with my daughter. My wish is for 4-day park hopper passes to Universal Studios. I have a family of 3 including myself. Thank you Vet Tix and all your donors for your continued support.

Hi everyone, I’m currently on my first deployment in Djibouti, Africa getting ready to head home after a long 13 months. When I left home my niece she was three and now she just celebrated her fifth birthday and started kindergarten.

Disney World With Daddy

Hello, my name is Sergeant First Class Bruce Peltier. I have been in the Army for 15 years. My wife and I have been married for 13 years when our anniversary passes in July of 2018. I have three kids. Brayden is 10, Katelynn is 8, and Lyla is 2. Getting the support of your awesome program would be amazing for my family. I want to do this for them and be able to recognize them as well. Military spouses and families have to sacrifice a lot during deployments as well and we could not do it without them back home supporting us and holding down the Home front. My wife has been there for all five of my deployments and I could not have asked for a better team mate throughout this journey. This is the first deployment my kids can really remember leavening. It has proven to be one of the hardest for all of us. Being granted this wish would be an amazing way to show my family that I appreciate all the support they have given me. My wish is to take my family to Disney World. This would be an epic way for us to spend quality time with one another after I return from this deployment. Whether I am accepted or not, I truly appreciate what your organization does for our service members and families. Thanks to you and everyone who supports VETTIX. We appreciate everything you have done and will do in the future

To each of the donors that made our Hamilton musical a possibility, I genuinely, truly appreciate it. My daughter said it was the best night of her life and all night I looked over at her, there was never a time when she didn't have a smile on her face. You gave us 4 tickets to an incredible opportunity and these memories will last us a lifetime! Thank you Vet Tix and supporters, this was an awesome once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Words cannot express how grateful we are for the time we have spent at Disneyworld in Orlando, Florida over the past week courtesy of those who were gracious enough to donate money towards our wish. We had an amazing time and are completely exhausted (a great problem to have) from 4 days at Disneyworld with 4 kids, lol. Once again a big thank you to John, William, Dale, Julie, Michelle, Rachel, Trace, and the Veteran Tickets Foundation general Hero's Wish Fund. - The Darnell Family

Thank you for all your support and making this trip possible for my family and I. It was the perfect opportunity for us to come together and reconnect as a family after my deployment away from my husband and four daughters. The time apart is incredibly hard but the opportunity you gave us to reconnect in such a magical place would not have been possible without your support! Thank you again, from the Springer family!
