Current Hero's Wishes
Attending the 'Primetime with the Steelers' event in October with my son would be an unforgettable experience. Because I work second shift, we do not get to spend as much time together as I would like. He is entering his senior year of football and plays both offensive and defensive line, so this would be a meaningful way to celebrate our shared love of the game. I have been a lifelong Steelers fan and have always admired their hard-nosed defense. My son and I especially enjoy watching T.J. Watt. After serving as a combat engineer in Iraq in 2003 and 2004, this opportunity would give us valuable time together and a memory we could carry for years. I'd love to give him an amazing day!

My Hero's Wish is to attend the Dallas Cowboys vs. San Francisco 49ers game at AT&T Stadium with my family. I recently returned home after spending nine months deployed overseas. During part of that deployment, I was forward deployed to a bare-base location where we endured repeated ballistic-missile attacks and defensive intercepts. After months of long hours, alarms, uncertainty, and being separated from home, returning to normal life has taken time. My family has supported me through 18 years of deployments, missed milestones, and unpredictable schedules. This wish is as much for them as it is for me: a chance to spend the day together at one of football's greatest rivalries and create a positive memory after a difficult deployment.

Lifelong wish to attend a home Steelers game with my family. We have never been to a Steelers game. If I can get this wish granted it would be a miracle. I would take my 2 sons and my dad with me to the game cause his health is failing. I have never asked for anything like this. I appreciate the chance to fulfill a dream come true so I thank you in advance.

Military life means missing birthdays, ordinary weeknights, and the everyday moments that keep a family grounded. Through the long hours, thinking about my family is what carries me. We are a massive Ravens household, and following our team has always been a vital connection to home and normalcy for me. I made a promise to my family that we would celebrate our time together and make up for lost time by going to a Ravens game. It would mean the world to walk through the gates of M&T Bank Stadium together as a family and cheer on our team in person!

I’m an Active Duty Army Officer, and this wish is to celebrate my return home after a year of combat duty. I received the Combat Action Badge during this tour and unfortunately lost 8 comrades. I would greatly appreciate the honor of attending a Dallas Cowboys home game, ideally the Thanksgiving home game against Philadelphia, with my mom, step-dad, and fiancé, who are all 100% disabled veterans.

Hero's Wish Feedback
Adam says:
I want to express my deepest gratitude for the incredible gift you gave my family and me—tickets to Disney World after returning home from my deployment to the Middle East. After months apart, being able to reunite with my loved ones and experience the magic of Disney together was truly unforgettable. From watching our children’s faces light up as they met their favorite characters, to simply being able to laugh, explore, and make memories together—it was everything we needed and more. This opportunity gave us a chance to reconnect, heal, and celebrate our time together after a long separation. It reminded us how much moments like these matter. To every donor who made this possible: thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Your generosity doesn't just provide tickets—it creates lifelong memories and brings joy to military families like mine when we need it most. With sincere appreciation, MAJ Adam R Carroll

My 2 children and I want to say a big thank you to Vet Tix, and to all of the donors who helped make our wish come true. We had an amazing time at Disney World. My daughter Carson got to meet almost all of the princesses, and my son loved riding all of the rides. Without all of your help we would have never been able to go. It was such an amazing experience and I loved seeing the huge smiles on my kids faces. I can not possibly thank all of you enough.

Words cannot fully express the overwhelming gratitude my family and I feel for the incredible generosity that made our Hero's Wish come true through Vet Tix. Thanks to donations from generous donors like Kenneth, John, Eulalio, KrisAnn, Rebecca, Robert, Kobe, William, Rosemary, Evander, and several others, we were able to take our first family trip to Walt Disney World—a dream that seemed impossible until your kindness made it a reality. For my wife, this trip fulfilled a lifelong dream she never thought would happen. Watching her experience the magic of Disney for the very first time was a gift beyond measure. But perhaps even more precious was witnessing our ASD/IDD son's pure joy as he met Mickey Mouse and his favorite characters in person. The wonder in his eyes, his infectious laughter, and the way he lit up with each new discovery reminded us all of what true magic looks like. This wasn't just a vacation—it was a chance for our family to create memories that will last a lifetime. In moments when daily challenges can feel overwhelming, we now have these beautiful experiences to hold onto. Your generosity gave us more than a trip; you gave us hope, joy, and the reminder that there are still people who believe in taking care of one another. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for believing in our family and for making dreams come true. Your kindness has touched our lives in ways you may never fully know, but we will carry this gratitude with us always. With deepest appreciation, Jeff

To our generous donors - Henry, Marcie, Ulric in honor of Larry Conception, Brian, and Raul: Thank you so much for sending us to the Rose Bowl - the Granddaddy of Them All!! This was an incredible experience to cheer on our team the Utah Utes. My husband and I have been Utah football fans since we attended "the U" as undergrads. We spent many date nights attending home games. Utah Football remains a big part of our lives with our kids as we catch games on TV and attend the occasional game, though being stationed away from home makes that difficult. The Rose Bowl was likely one of the last games we will be able to go to due to our next set of orders and we are so grateful to be able to have those memories with our kids while they are still young. They had a blast, even in the rain! The parking was seamless and somehow there was no traffic in LA. The VIP tailgate passes gave us an opportunity to kick back, enjoy some good food and drinks while playing games with the kids and chatting it up with fellow fans. The seats at the game took our breath away - we had a perfect view of the field from around the 40 yard line, and of course in Utah territory where it was just like home. Having recently returned from deployment, family events become so much more important and meaningful. Reintegration can be challenging and experiences like these really bring our family together. Thank you again for your incredible donation for this once in a lifetime opportunity! We are forever grateful!!!

I just want to give a huge thank you to Shannon, David, Jennifer, Carissa, and Hero’s Wish for the incredible gift of Disneyland tickets! This truly means the world to me and my family. Your generosity gave us the chance to make memories that we’ll cherish forever from the laughter, the rides, and all the magic in between. I’m so grateful for the kindness and support shown to veterans like me. You’ve made a dream come true, and I can’t thank you enough for reminding us what true compassion looks like.
