Current Hero's Wishes
My name is Sarah. I have been in the Air Force since 2006. My most recent deployment had me away from my family for nearly four months. I just returned from a deployment to INDOPACOM at the end of April and would like to take my family to Disneyland; this year has been difficult for all of us, and it will be nice to relax together now that things are getting back to normal.

Hello! My name is Nathan. I am an 11 year veteran on my way home from my second tour. I am writing this in hopes of you being able to help my family create new memories and make up for lost time in a trip to Disney World. Every service member knows that being a parent while deployed isn’t exactly easy. For me, hearing my two boys wonder where I am and ask when I am coming home is always so difficult, especially around their birthdays. I wasn’t able to make it home for the birth of my second child last deployment. This deployment I lost my grandfather this summer and wasn’t able to attend his funeral. This compounded a lot of stress on my family and I, but have made it thus far. My wife, Mary, is the rock in our marriage; a retired veteran after 22 years of dedicated service and a mother of two handsome boys, has worked tirelessly to get our kids to summer camp and to keep them happy and healthy while I’m deployed, as well as taking over my chores as well. For my Hero’s Wish, I am asking you to help me get our family 4 Park Hopper Passes to Walt Disney World. This isn’t just a wish for me, this wish is for my wife who held this family together and for my kids to have breakfast with their favorite Disney characters.

My name is Rosemary, an Army veteran and the widow of Army SSG Jeremy A. Brown. Jeremy was killed in action on July 3, 2005, while deployed in Mosul, Iraq. At the time, he had just begun our third consecutive deployment to Iraq since we were married. Our married life was defined by service to our country. While Jeremy was completing his first deployment, I arrived to start mine — passing each other in Kuwait by a single day. When I returned home, he was deployed again. We celebrated our marriage with a big family wedding during his two-week R&R, but we never had the chance to take a honeymoon or share a family vacation together. I have remained unmarried for the past 20 years, and have a son who is 19. He is a wonderful young man and a devoted WWE fan. My wish is to share with him a special experience we will both cherish — attending WrestleMania 42 in Las Vegas, Nevada. Specifically, I am requesting two 2-day tickets so that we can enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime event together. This would not only fulfill a dream for my son but also honor the life and sacrifices that have shaped our family’s journey.

I would love to take my Fiancé and our three girls, ages 5, 9, and 12, to Disney World in Orlando, Florida. My children have never been, and I remember going as a child and making lasting memories. I would love to take them to Disney and am asking for 5 tickets for two park days. My children love everything Disney, and I would love to make our forever memories.

Hello, we are the Powell Family. I am Daniel, an E-7 Chief Boatswain Mate in the United States Coast Guard, currently serving my second tour overseas in Bahrain as part of Patrol Forces Southwest Asia. I am married to my loving wife, Daisy, and blessed with two amazing children, Delano and Desmin, who are 9 and 11 years old. While my work is challenging and rewarding, I believe my family shoulders the greatest burden: my children being without their father for a total of two and a half years during my deployments, and most importantly, my wife, who is currently in remission from lymphoma. Her courage, resilience, and strength in managing our household during my absence inspire me every day. Our wish is to create lasting family memories by visiting Disney World upon my return from deployment. We are respectfully requesting assistance in obtaining multi day park hopper plus tickets for my family. This experience would not only be a dream come true for our children but also serve as a much-needed morale boost for my wife and our entire family after these challenging few years.

Stephanie says:
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.

Thank you so much to Vet Tix and the generous donors for the tickets to Disney World! We had such a great time and made a lot of great memories as a family. This was our first time getting to go on any kind of trip with my boys, Olivia's stepsons, so it was all 5 of us and was awesome watching all 3 kids have a magical time together! None of us but Olivia had ever been to FL and probably never would have been able to if it hadn't been for this! Thanks so much again!

I like to thank Vet Tix and the people who donated though the Hero's Wish program. Especially The NY Yankees For the great seats I had for Myself and my family. They treated me special. This program shows Veterans that people do care about us. It made me feel good I also met a great friend at the game who helped make this dream come true thanks Joe. It will be a long time before I can forget this day I got to see my favorite player Derek Jeter play and the NY Yankees won what more can you ask for thank you Vet Tix.

Raquel says:
When I made this wish, my intention was to facilitate my reunion with my children after almost a year of separation. However, I now realize that it holds greater significance as it coincides with major life events: my eldest child graduating high school, embarking on the journey of adulthood, and my own transition from military service to new identities and chapters. Thank you for the opportunity to reconnect with my family during these significant moments in our lives.

We were floored to have received three four day park hoppers for Disney Parks in Orlando, FL. The gesture was much more than expected from our original request of one day at Disney. Michelle and Vet Tix made it possible to finally on our promise to take Connor to Disney Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom. He said it best when he said "Its the greatest day of my life". I really appreciate everything that Vet Tix does for our troops and for donors like Michelle for paying forward such a fulfilling experience. Thank you so much for making my Families Summer!
