Sunday, September 22nd 2024 - Atlanta, GA Hi, my name is Seth. I met Clayton early in our military service in 2005 and we instantly became close friends. In 2006, he was called up for a deployment to Iraq and I didn't hesitate to volunteer to go with him. Our job overseas was to conduct convoy security and my truck was hit by an IED early on in the deployment. Both of us have had our struggles since then but we have always had each other's backs. He is the battle buddy that every soldier deserves. He's a lifelong Chiefs fan and I'm a lifelong Falcons fan. Due to the game being a Sunday night game and being several states away, we are unable to make it happen financially. The picture I provided is from our first NFL game together in 2020, when our teams played in Kansas City. His birthday this year happens to be the day before this game and I wish for nothing more than to make it a birthday he'll never forget. I would be extremely grateful for anyone who donates to this cause. Thank you. |

Sunday, November 10th 2024 - Kansas City, MO Hi, my name is Avag. My family and I have been separated for 9 months while I was deployed to Poland. As soon as I returned, we then had to PCS and leave all of our friends and familiarities. Both events have been extremely hard for my wife and children, 8 yo daughter and 3 yo son, as well as myself. We have been Chiefs fans since we were stationed in Kansas several years ago. We were only there briefly and were never able to get tickets. We are now stationed close enough to be able to drive to a game and would love to finally be able to attend one. I think this would be a great family event, as my daughter is a new football fan and my son loves any and all sports. |

Monday, November 11th 2024 - Orlando, FL My name is Clay. I am currently deployed to the Middle East and would love to take my family to Disney World. My daughters Eleanor (10) and Penelope (8) are in love with all things Disney and it would be epic to surprise them with a trip to Disney World in Florida when I get back from deployment. They have been so proud of their dad during this deployment and want to treat them for helping their mom around the house and keeping her spirits high. I love my family and hope that I can give them something special for keeping me motivated and taken care of the home front while I’m gone. Thank you for your consideration and no matter what, thank you for taking care of Soldiers all around the world! You are awesome! |

Saturday, November 16th 2024 - Fort Smith, AR My Name is Jalen and I would love to take my family to the Texas vs Arkansas football game. Football is my favorite sport and my son is starting his first year of tackle football. I’m not sure if I’ll get to see him play as I’m due to come home within the next couple months. This would be his first pro or college game to go to and I know he would never forget this. I will be missing his birthday so this would be a gift to him. |

Saturday, December 14th 2024 - Orlando, FL My Name is Brandon. I am Senior Chief Petty Officer in the Navy. I have been serving for a total of 12 years in the US Navy and I just returned from and 8 month deployment with the USS Carney. I have 3 children ages 6, 4, and 1 with my wife of 13 years. The only thing my children asked for when I returned was to go to Disney World for their first time. This was a really hard deployment for my family seeing my command on the news everyday for the amount of combat we were in, being that this was the first deployment where my oldest has really known what was going on and really struggled in school with it. I want to also give my wife a nice vacation as she has sacrificed so much over the years because of my service and taking care of all of the children by herself while I was gone with no support. I am super proud of my family for staying so strong and I would like to surprise them with this visit. I am requesting a total of 4-four day tickets to Walt Disney World with park hopper, a memory maker pass for the trip, and genie+ pass in (Orlando) Florida for 2 adults and 2 children. |

Monday, January 13th 2025 - Orlando, FL I’m married to my high school sweetheart, Marie (14 years married) and together we have two children, Elodie (7 years old) and Gabriel (3 years old). I've been in the military for 14 years, a majority of the time being in MARSOC as a Marine Special Ops Operator. For my 5th and most recent deployment in April of 2023 I was Force Mobilized to Iraq with NATO. Due to sourcing issues for a replacement, I was extended three times to make a six months turn into a one year deployment overseas! Over the year, I’ve missed birthdays and holidays alike, especially when the kids were hoping for me to be “home by their birthdays!” As I look to come home and reconnect with my family after one year apart, I’m wishing to take my family to Disney World. Having time together would be a blessing and opportunity to help make up for all the time lost while I was in Iraq. My kids and wife have been so strong thinking I would be home soon and to be disappointed to find the deployment was extended 3 times for a total of a year. I would love to be able to surprise the kids with this. Thank you so much for your consideration and hopeful support. As we say in the Marine Raiders, “Never above you, never below you, always beside you.” |

Wednesday, January 15th 2025 - Orlando, FL Hello, my name is Nick. I am a 17 year Army Soldier, husband, and father to two wonderful children. I am currently deployed to the Middle East. While this is my third deployment for the military, this is my first as a Dad. Back home, I live the somewhat cliche tale of a full-time Sheriff Deputy married to an elementary school teacher. My wife and I both have a passion for serving others, but this trip is far different with my wife taking on so much of the burden. By the time all is done and I am finally home, my family will have been apart for over 13 months out of a 16 month period. I would like nothing more than to take my 8 year old and 5 year old for a trip to Disney World to celebrate finally being a family again and to thank them for letting their Dad go help others while I could. Thank you for your consideration. |

Sunday, January 19th 2025 - Dumfries, VA My name is James. I Marine veteran and severely wounded purple heart recipient. My youngest daughter was born during the pandemic and we would love to give her the magical memories of a Disney experience. I am requesting tickets for my family of 5 for Walt Disney World in order to create lifelong memories for our family. During my deployment in Iraq I experienced loss of lives too soon. I have tried to make it a priority to make memories in my everyday life with my wife and three daughters as often as I can, because tomorrow is never promised. |

Monday, March 10th 2025 - Orlando, FL Hello, my name is David and I am writing this asking for your help to fulfill a family trip to help celebrate our retirement from the Military. I enlisted in the military in 2004 and over the past 20 years of service, 14 of those have been in special operations. My career has taken me on 16 combat deployments, resulting in many missed holidays, birthdays, and significant family events. My service has been the honor of my life, but now I am seeking support for a family trip to help mend those missed moments and reconnect with my loved ones. We are seeking a 5-day 3 park pass to Universal Studios Orlando. Now that my kids are tall enough to ride anything, we looking forward to enjoying every attraction the park has to offer. Thanks! |

Tuesday, April 1st 2025 - Anaheim, CA Hello Everyone! My name is Bryan, and I just came back from a 6-month deployment to Kuwait. Our family was separated from each other during all major holidays and birthdays. My wife has sacrificed just as much, if not more than I have, by sacrificing her career for us to be active duty. I would really like to be able to take my family to Disneyland as a special treat to thank my family for the sacrifice they have also given. Thank you for all of your help in advance! |

Thursday, April 17th 2025 - Anaheim, CA Hi, I'm Jeremy. I'm a psychologist in the Air Force and currently at Al Dhafra Air Base. Out here, I'm responsible for the psychological health of around 2000 Soldiers, Airmen, and Marines. I'm also fortunate to lead a team of expeditionary medics, who respond at all hours to medical emergencies. It's both a privilege and meaningful work. Even so, my family could use me at home, and when I finally get there, I'd like to make the reunion special. Your help will make it possible. It was nearly my worst fear. A month after deploying, my home flooded, and my family was displaced. I was and am unable to do much to support them, while the four of them live in a small hotel room awaiting the repairs to be done ...and me to come home. Right now, my children wouldn't even have books or teddy bears if I hadn't been able to send them after they were moved out of the house. I want to do something to surprise them -- something we couldn't do without *your* help. I'd like to get these kids to Disneyland. |

Monday, July 14th 2025 - Orlando, FL Hello all, My name is Josh. I’ve served in the Air Force for 15 years, with the last five years working as a Program Manager. I am married to my best friend for almost 16 years and we were blessed with four wonderful kids, two girls and two boys, ranging in age from 14 to seven. I am currently deployed to the Middle East while my family serves back home to keep the ship afloat, so to speak. This deployment has asked a lot of the five of them over the past several months and I wanted to express my gratitude to them for going above and beyond, especially my wife, who is the embodiment of servant leadership while I’ve been away. My wife loves to share experiences as a family, and my kids love superhero’s and Harry Potter, so it would be great to treat the four kids to a 3 day Universal Studios - Orlando trip. After being away from each other for so long - missing birthdays, holidays, and first days of high school - sharing this moment together as a family would be a much appreciated time of refocus and reinvigoration. Thank you for your consideration and for all that you do in support of the veterans! |

Monday, September 15th 2025 - Orlando, FL Hi! My name is Jeff and I am currently on 13 month mobilization orders deployed to the Middle East. Proudly serving in the US Navy Reserve, this is my fourth overseas deployment in 6 years. I’d really like to surprise my family with a long overdue vacation. My wife and I are parents to a disabled, special needs adult child that gets super excited about anything Disney. We have always wanted to be able to plan a trip to take him to Disney World in Orlando, Florida. My wife is the real hero here as she has been home holding things down and taking care of our boy while I've been away. This particular deployment was made more challenging because of course, everything waits for me to leave to go wrong so she has faced home repairs and dealt with having to get the AC fixed in the heat of the Texas summer. Her car has been in for repairs as well. The sacrifices she makes every day in support of our family are not easy but she goes above and beyond to get it all done! I am so proud of her and wish so much to make her dream a realization and take our family on this vacation to make up for all the time I have missed through these deployments! I expect to return home by early May 2024 and would really appreciate any help in making this wish for four, 3-day park-hopper-plus tickets (with available disability services) come true! If it does, we would plan our trip between April and September 2025. Thank you for taking the time to read my wish! |
