Return from Deployment Disneyland

Monday, April 28th 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.

Take my family to Disney World

Tuesday, May 6th 2025 - Orlando, FL

My name is Bradley. I’ve served in the Army for 17 years now. I’ve been stationed in Germany and deployed on combat rotations twice. Just got back from a 10 month deployment to Poland in Oct of 24. I’m married to an amazing wife named Courtney and we have four children together. My family and I have been dreaming of the day to go to Disney World. Unfortunately we haven’t had the time or money so it’s been delayed again and again.

Jelly roll

Thursday, June 26th 2025 - Tacoma, WA

Hello, my name is Nick. I have always wanted to go to a Jelly Roll concert. Specially before I have to get my 3rd back fusion. I have never been to a concert and think it would be awesome to see Jelly Roll. Of course it would be amazing to do a meet and greet but I know that is a little much to ask. So just being able to go to the concert would be awesome. I recently had to have my T4-7 fused in my back and 4 months before that I had to have my neck fused. I have a hard time doing much of anything now and I cannot walk very far. Whenever I leave my house I have to either use a walker for short distances and a scooter for anything other than my doctor appointments. Being an infantryman that was injured, now 35 years old and I can’t even do dishes anymore. I have a two year old and my wife has to take care of me and my son. I’m afraid that with the next surgery they want to do will make things even more difficult for me to get out of the house. Again if it is possible I would love to go see a Jelly Roll concert please.

Family Experience at Universal Studios - Orlando

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!

Thank you for taking the time to consider my request and have a blessed day.

Take my daughter to Disneyland

Monday, July 28th 2025 - Anaheim, CA

Hi, I'm Tobias. I'm finishing up my 3rd deployment in as many years. My wife and daughter have been a great strength for me as I continually go overseas on deployments. It is always nice to come home and be with them until the next time I have to go again. My daughter is turning 7 this summer and I would like to take her on a magical vacation to Disneyland for the first time in her life. We would need 4 Disneyland tickets with lightning lane passes if possible. Between the 3 deployments and 3 extended TDYs since she was born, I've been away over half her life. She is awesome and I would love to treat her to memories she will cherish for a lifetime. Any help you could possibly provide would be amazing!

Wishing to take the family on a dream vacation to Disney World

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!

Late Birthday trip to Disneyland

Wednesday, October 1st 2025 - Anaheim, CA

Hello, we are the Harmon family. I'm Glenn, and I've been privileged to serve my country through three deployments. Now, I'm excited to start a new chapter and create unforgettable memories with my loved ones. During my last deployment, I missed several special milestones, including my triplets' 3rd birthday, my daughter's 11th birthday, my wife's birthday, and our 10th wedding anniversary. My wife has done an amazing job holding the house down, all while working full time and juggling many schedules. I'm looking forward to making up for lost time and taking my family on a magical adventure to Disneyland when I return home. Thank you for your support in getting our family of 6 to Disneyland with lightning lane passes!

Universal Studios Orlando with my family

Monday, October 13th 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!

Disneyland trip with my family

Thursday, October 30th 2025 - Anaheim, CA

Hello, my name is Stephanie. I’m 29 years old and currently serving in the Army. Over the course of my career, I’ve had one overseas deployment that changed my life in ways I could never have imagined. During that deployment, my family endured unimaginable pain. We lost a loved one, and I received the devastating news that my daughter had been a victim of S/A at the hands of someone we trusted. Around the same time, my wife’s mother was diagnosed with terminal cancer. Being away from my family during such a difficult time was one of the hardest challenges I’ve faced. I couldn’t be there to support them when they needed me most, and that weighs heavy on my heart. All I want now is to give my little girl a moment of happiness, a chance to feel like a carefree child again. Taking her to the happiest place on earth is a small dream, but one I believe she deserves after everything she’s been through. While I know this won’t fix what has happened, I hope it can bring a smile to her face and create a precious memory for her to hold onto. If you’re able to support us in making this dream come true, my family and I would be forever grateful. Every donation, no matter the amount, brings us one step closer to giving her this special experience. Thank you for taking the time to read our story and for any support you can offer.

John, Trent, James (and Hero’s Wish), Thank you for your donations. I do hope that helping to supporting my family’s reunion adventure gave you a sense of fulfillment, and honored the special people you mentioned. We had a great time! I know that being gone on deployment was a big (and often challenging) event for my family. I’m hoping that when they think back to this time they think of how the sacrifice made possible the big trip to Disney. Thank you for helping to make this happen! V/r, Steve

My family and I would like to thank the Veteran Tickets Foundation and the generous donors. We had a great time making lasting memories together. Our youngest loved getting to meet her favorite princess, Elsa, and really enjoyed the Frozen Ever After ride. Our middle child is a huge Ratatouille fan and looked forward to the Ratatouille ride for weeks which did not disappoint. She loved meeting her favorite princess, Belle. Our teenager even enjoyed the magic of meeting her favorite character, Stitch, and loved the bigger thrill rides like Tower of Terror. The real highlight was our youngest getting twirled around by Goofy at a dance party. Thank you!

On Jul 11th Luis Posted:
On behalf of my family, we wish to express our heartfelt THANK YOU to all those who helped make our Hero's Wish a reality. The experience we had attending Harry Potter and the Cursed Child was remarkable and will be something my kids will remember for a long time. Even though we're big Harry Potter fans, attending this play on Broadway would not have happened without the generosity of all the donors and VetTix. While in NYC, we also took time to visit the 9/11 Memorial and the Intrepid Museum which helped my kids better understand the many ways in which we can serve our communities. Special thanks to: Patrick, Margaret, Ann Marie, Montie, Kenneth, Menahem and Tania in Honor of John A. ("LJ") Chambers II, Chasitty, James, Wilson, Margaret in Honor of Robert Tollefson, and all those donors who chose to remain anonymous. You generosity is much appreciated...thank you!
