REINTEGRATION BACK INTO THEIR COMMUNITIES AND FAMILIES
44% of returning Veterans experience trouble readjusting.
Reintegration is the process of military service members returning from deployment and re-entering their family unit and American life. It can also mean the reintegration from military into civilian life. The reintegration process can last for months or years. Almost half of returning Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans has reported difficulties readjusting.
Too many vets and service members spend time in isolation. Tickets to cheer for local teams, to enjoy a night at the symphony or to see their favorite band enhances their lives by bringing them back out into to the community, increasing family bonds through shared interests while reducing stress through entertainment. Veterans state they feel most comfortable around other service members. Vet Tix events often have a group of Veterans attending allowing Vet Tixers to feel more comfortable attending. Strong family bonds and community reintegration opportunities are essential tools for Veterans during active duty, post-deployment, and post-service years.
Words can't begin to describe how thankful I am to this wonderful organization and Alan, who donated our tickets. We had such a great time at Disney, I smile like I haven't in awhile. My son even told me, “Dad, I haven't seen you smile so much in a long time!”
My family and I truly had a great time and we were able to reconnect again. It is what they said, Disney is magical. Again, thank you so much for the tickets!!

WORKING THROUGH PTSD
An estimated 30% of veterans experience PTSD
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder is an anxiety disorder that may develop after a person is exposed to violently traumatic event, serious injury or threat of death. PTSD symptoms include depression, sleep and health problems. Sufferers often avoid social interaction. Medication, psychological therapies and physical activity are all common treatments for PTSD. Sadly, studies show no improvement with anti-depressants for combat veterans. Many Veterans do not seek help because of stigma associated with mental illness or are worried it would hurt their career.
Receiving tickets to special events has had a more far reaching impact than we had imagined on combat Veterans. Our Vet Tixers report relief from PTSD symptoms. New psychological studies show that creating happy memories is a key component to overcoming PTSD. Being able to attend events with family and other service members has encouraged Veterans suffering from PTSD to re-engage in community activities and work on conquering their symptoms.
Jesse's First VetTix Event
Vet Tix, I am a 61 year old Vet and this was my very first football Game I ever got to watch live! Watching football on TV is great, but I never knew just what I was missing until today. We got a little wet from all the rain but I still had a Fantastic time and it made me feel like a kid again.
Normally crowds really freak me out and make me feel very uneasy, but thanks to the VAs MH department and having a chance to talk with other vets, I was able to put my PTSD on a short vacation and that allowed me to really enjoy myself for the first time in over 40 years.
I can't Thank you enough Vet-Tix and all who have given their support…

My Wife (Angela) and I had a Wonderful Time and we laughed so hard we were hurting All Over. …
We would not have been able to go to all the different events and shows we've attended in the last few months had we not singed up with the wonderful people at Vet-Tix.
We have gotten over $800.00 in Free tickets from Vet-Tix in the last 25 Days. Vet-Tix is the Best thing that has happened to us!

GIVING SUPPORT AND RECOGNITION
16.6 million Veterans served during wartime.
Knowing that Americans businesses and people are donating to provide these opportunities also helps Veterans to feel welcomed back. Tickets to events to say ‘thank you for your service' provide a sense of pride. Vet Tix events often publicly recognize service members. Being recognized at a game is a heartfelt thank you to our Veterans and their families and is an emotional experience. It reaffirms why they signed up for service in the first place, for pride of our country and the amazing people that live in it. It's a true message of gratitude and a way of letting them know that they will never be forgotten.
Thanks to vettix.org, King Soopers, and the Pepsi Center organizations, personnel, and staff for a wonderful time to do a father-daughter night. This was T's first NHL game, and the staff at the Pepsi Center made sure to treat her like a star. We made some great memories, and she couldn't stop talking about all the fun she had!
We've been working really hard to work for several weeks through some heavy emotional issues because I've been called away to duty more than she can handle. Thanks for giving us the opportunity to re-connect!
Also, it's a tremendous kindness for King Soopers to offer the Honorary Hero of the Game to Currently Serving and Veteran members. The same can be said for both the Pepsi Center and vettix.org. Thanks for your dedication, professionalism, philanthropy, and all you do to honor our servicemen and women–to feel welcomed in the community in ways like this is a powerful re-connection back to our families, friends, and hometowns.
Very Respectfully,

FILLING THE MISSING GAP
Combat Veterans receive on average five days of post-deployment debriefing before returning home.
Currently there is a huge VA claims backlog, keeping many Veterans from getting care in a timely fashion. A recent report for the VA states there is insufficient evidence to prove the effectiveness of current VA support programs. Only a small percentage of our population has serves in the military. Many Americans do not understand the problems Veterans face, making it more difficult for Veterans to reconnect to their communities. All of these factors leave service members largely on their own as they come home to their families and rejoin their communities and American life.
My battle buddies and I had the time of our lives yesterday at the NHL Stadium Series at Yankee Stadium Sunday. 3 have never been to Yankee Stadium and two have never been to hockey games. Not to mention the two best teams in the league. Out in the elements as it should be. Man you had to be there and it was great therapy because we all battle with PTSD and other ailments so it was a great day for us all. Vettix we can't thank you enough for the generous gesture but thanks a million times over.
Salute!

CAN'T THEY JUST USE A MILITARY DISCOUNT?
It's estimated that 66% of our Veterans do not have any type of Veteran ID card.
Only Veterans who served 20+ years or were disabled leave the military with any form of ID. So a Veteran with 2 or 3 combat deployments can not use many advertised discounts.
When Vet Tix was founded in 2008, we discovered that military discounts were limited or problematic. Few concerts venues offered a discount. Some sport teams offered military Mondays to active duty only, even though military bases were over an hour away from the stadium, making it impossible for active duty personnel to attend during or after work. Many businesses do not offer a military discount at locations near bases. The discount applies to the military personnel only, not the family.
The average football game or concert is $500 for a family or four, making these All-American events too expensive for many Military and Veteran families.
Thank you all for your support, my family and I had a wonderful time at a roller coaster game. It was a great opportunity to spend time and bond with my kids. I would not have been able to afford the cost of the 14 hour drive (1 way), food, hotel and tickets. Your donation of the tickets defrayed the cost enough to made this trip possible. The Blue Devils put on a great game, but I am happy my Aggies were able to win in the end.
Thank you again for your continued support,

WHAT KIND OF EVENTS?
Just about anything you can buy a ticket for!
Vet Tix offers tickets to a wide range of events: sports, concerts, symphonies, ballet, theatrical plays, rodeo, comedy shows, family activites and more.
Vet Tixers choose events of their liking, regardless of age or physical ability. This allows retired Veterans to take their grandchildren to Disney on Ice, it allows married couples to go the symphony, and it allows entire families to attend a sporting event together. We create opportunities for entertainment and engagement. We have created new hockey fans, encouraged interest in symphony or brightened a day with a comedy show. With such diverse events across the nation we reach Veterans and give them opportunities to find new interests, to build lasting memories which connect families together and build emotional resiliency which is vital to mental health.
Thank you VETERAN TICKETS FOUNDATION for allowing me the opportunity to go to the best car show / auction in the USA! You have made a dream come true for this combat veteran! Thank you for the UNIFIED military support to our troops, retiree's and our families!

WHY ARE THESE EVENTS IMPORTANT?
Performing Arts Enrichment
Studies show that observation and engagement in artistic performances enhances people's emotional and mental well-being. Some hospitals have reported quicker healing times when performers are brought in for patients to enjoy. Attending musical and theatrical shows sparks creativity. It engages Veterans in their community functions and American culture. This results in our Veterans and their families leading fuller lives.
I want to Thank everyone who made this possible. As a member of the military, I don't often get the chance to take my daughter to events like this. I want to thank the Ballet troupe for their donation of these tickets, without them, I don;t believe I would have been able to make this happen. The smile on my little dancers face, watching them on stage, performing this show, was everything I could have asked for. God Bless you all and again…Thank You! It truly was a magical night for me.

Sporting Events, Bonding & Health
Attending games together increases bonds and social connections with other people. Over 90% of people attending sporting events go with family or friends. Strong relationships are a key factor in emotional health.
Sports fans have higher self-esteem and social identity. Identifying with a local sports team provides a built-in connection to others in your community. It provides a sense of belonging in your community or within a group of friends and family.
Leisure activity and entertainment help people to mentally escape from the stresses and strain of life. Sporting events are American’s top source of entertainment.
Cheering or groaning for a favorite team gives people a cathartic release of internalized emotions through in a socially acceptable manner. This is especially important in men who have problems expressing their emotions.
We would really like to express our appreciation to the donors and VETTIX for making it possible for our family to attend the Dallas Mavericks basketball game. It was a really exciting game and the whole family had a wonderful time. Thank-you for all you do to help service members and Veterans. What you do makes a real difference in people's lives.

WHY DO OUR DONORS LOVE US?
Vet Tix provides a rewarding and simple way for donors to give back!
Vet Tix enriches Veterans' lives, but we are also a benefit to donors. Since Veteran Tickets Foundation is a 501c3 non-profit foundation, individual ticket holders and businesses can receive tax deductions for their donations which they would not receive by donating directly to bases or military families.
The Vet Tix system is transparent. Venues, artist, teams get know that their tickets are used by our Military and our Veterans. Our verification system ensures that only qualified people get access to tickets and discounts. We provide easy methods to donate will call tickets, electronic tickets or paper tickets, with complete tracking along the process.
Sun Devil Athletics has had the pleasure to work and partner with Veteran Tickets Foundation to bring out the local military and veteran community to all Sun Devil Athletic sporting events.
The partnership that we have with Vet Tix has helped us grow our Sun Devil fan base throughout the valley as well as with different military branches. We have been and will continue to work with them as a partner in order to grow our relationships with the military and veteran communities.
Sun Devil Athletics has had a rich tradition when it comes to the military and Vet Tix has helped us continue with that tradition. We can't thank Veteran Tickets Foundation enough for doing what they do both through donations of tickets and supporting our athletic department. When it comes to donation of tickets, we will call Vet Tix first!

Showing veterans respect considering what they’ve done for our country is something that we must do. They deserve it. If it’s not because of them we could have been exposed to lots of security challenges. We won’t live the live that we used to. So, making them to have a more relaxed life after their service is what we owe them. I love this article.
Many thanks to you for sharing with us an amazing and informative article. Looking at your article, I can see how wonderful the Veteran’s Benefits are? Vet Tix is an organization that organizes events and offers free event tickets only for veterans. And these events of theirs are so wonderful that those who have participated here have realized how enjoyable it is. So I would say the benefit of being a veteran is the most so you have to work towards becoming a veteran.
Wow! To be honest this is really a good thing to see here, I am intrigued by the fact that we are starting to give much recommendation and respect to our veterans who have served us with all they had and that is simply great to see. Thanks you for putting this through with us all out here.
Oh, thank you very much for informing me about Vet Tix. I love the fact that vet tix enriches the lives of many military veterans. I love the fact that vet tix enriches the lives of many military veterans by providing integration opportunities because most of the returning veterans have problem in readjusting.
Hello there Tony Lee Hamilton! The Digital Marketing Veteran. Thanks for dropping this new article. I always looked forward to your new articles and I’m happy I’m seeing this. Well, I think this one is a good one and I’m getting a free ticket to be a part of it which in my own candid opinion is a good opportunity that I should want to take for real
Oh, thank you very much for informing me about Vet Tix. It’s nice to read all those testimonials. Yes, some veterans have PTSD and they may need immediate consultation with a certified psycolog. This is important information to give to my uncle. His dad is also a veteran and it seems he has PTSD syndrome. Thank you very much.

Thank you.

Hi Mr. Hamilton,
This is a beautiful way to help our veterans navigate life after service as well as those who are currently serving. Thanks for this amazing post! Veterans are people who we owe a lot! I’m really happy that you did a review about this program since I consider it is a great way to give back to those who work to keep us safe!
You did an amazing job as always!
I don’t have family who are veterans, neither have I been involved in military service, but I have a good idea of what happens to many of them who return and find that readjusting is not as easy as it was thought to be. This is a great venture. When people return from the trauma and stress on their bodies and emotions, the best thing that can be done for them, is to reach out and include them. The stress is not only for the veterans but also for their families who have to find ways of adjusting. Thank you for highlighting this Vet tix, especially the testimonies of the beneficiaries.
VexTix is doing something that is really great. It is very true that veterans cannot adjust to the normal human society and it is really awesome to see organisations helping them settle. This would be awesome if it is present in every country. After all they are also humans too, they deserve to enjoy life.
Thanks, Tony for posting this on your blog. I am in the Uk and it is important we recognise what they have done for us. It is good to see that Vets are getting something that will help them when they get home and have finished the time they are serving their country. I suffer from PTSD and it is the small things that can help make a big difference.
So many vets are desperately in need of something like this. The need to connect and enjoy fun, normal events with other people is so important. The testimonials are very moving. The concept is simple but potentially life changing. Your brief discussion of PTSD is something that affects so many people. I have two family members who still have difficulty from their service in Vietnam. After all these years, if they hear a car backfire nearby, they hit the ground. I am going to pass this site on to them.
This article makes a lit of sense after I’ve read through it, it is a good idea for us to find in our own little ways, means of showing love and appreciation to our veterans who are risking their lives to protect ours, it’s good that there programs cab be done, It’ll make them happy and feel appreciated.
Not everyone understand the issues that veterans need to endure when they return. So what a great thought of reasoning to assist veterans with settling into a regular day to day life once more. Furthermore, it is for nothing, which is a good one. It gives them that opportunity they may not in any case have also.
It is a great method of offering acknowledgment to those that serve their nation and furthermore show the regard that they merit.
This is very thoughtful and warm of you. There is a saying that goes like this: ” A life lived for another is a life worth living”. I forgot who said this but there’s so much truth and humanity in it. What you have done here is just that, simply beautiful and may you be blessed for this. Those on the Frontline and their families need this recognition and compassion.
Or well, I did not know about this before and now that you are saying about it, I am not really a veteran yet so I cannot want to get too agree if myself and I don’t want anyone to think that you will be love to vettix my that you shared on your website. I like this. Thanks.
Hello there Tony, It’s amazing to see that veterans can have free tickets to attend venues. They’ve done so much their country and it is nice to see that their sacrifice is not so quickly forgotten. They’ve been through a lot and seen a lot of horrifying things so there being a program to help incorporate them back into the society is a great idea.
Hello,
It’s amazing to see that veterans can have free tickets to attend venues. I’ve always thought that America didn’t do enough for the veterans who fight for their country so it’s just nice to see that they can have some benefits and be happy because they deserve it. It’s always nice to see smiles on their faces and the testimonies were deeply moving as well. Thanks for sharing!
Very little things matters a lot and seeing all you have shared here, I can only say that you have outlined so well here. You know being able to see the veteran being singled out and actually taken to explore other things while esnureing their have maximum fun without paying or paging discount. Thanks

Vet Tix sounds so magnificent and I’m remarkably upbeat that there is something like this out there and I’ll make certain to look at the site. Military assistance individuals and veteran truly struggle adapting and coordinating to the general public and I’m happy that there is a stage out there that assists in such manner. I additionally appreciated perusing the various declarations from administration individuals and vets.
Hello Tony, these people have time through a lot and they deserve to have fun they want so as not to have much mental issue regarding the past they have lived and get in with the normal civilian lifestyle and have some fun while they have the time. I really feel a happy for them.
I do not have much experience dealing with military vets as my country is small and its soldiers have not had to go to war yet. However, my observation of and following the experiences of American soldiers on the news have revealed that most of them do have a difficult reintegrating into society. It is therefore commendable that serious effort is being made in various ways to help them have a smoother transition. I hope that the methods chosen will prove effective.
It is possible to actually be good that veterans would finally benefit from this g such as these. To be honest, not very many amongst them do receive recognition for their work done. So, seeing this here actually makes a whole lot of sense. Thank you so much for sharing these tips here and I value your post in all. Thank you so much for Sharing here
This is a very good idea, for us to pay back in our own little ways to these great men and women who are dedicating their lives to makes sure theirs peace all over the place, this will make them feel a very good way of being appreciated. It’s really nice that you shared.
Tony, one more great post from you about VetTix. This is great for me because l am an Active Duty Soldier from 2010. till now. I enjoyed the army after high school and finished the Medical Military Academy as an officer. That is my passion and my fulltime job, to help the community as a doctor and as an officer. Everybody who went to the army knows about hard is being often far away from home and family and this is a good opportunity to enrich the life of veterans and soldiers to afford to spend quality time with closest friends and family.
Thanks for the nice blog. It was very useful for me. Thank you for sharing veterans tickets with us, I too always learn something new from your posts.
Your information about veterans and tickets is informative and useful. I’ve been thinking about writing a very comparable post over the last couple of weeks, I’ll probably keep it short and sweet and link to this instead if that’s cool. Thanks. I have some friends that are veterans that would benefit from your blog.
How long has Vet Tix been around?
That is an awesome program. It is a much needed service. Our veterans have given us so much and this is a great way to give back in a small way. I’m sure the vets and their families appreciate it very much. They deserve this and a whole lot more.
I love that this site was created. Really giving true value to the soldiers that fought so that we can stay a free country in America. It’s a one stop shop for veteran events and it’s very important for people to be able to connect with each other and know that they are not alone in this world.
Like all your reviews they are always wonderful and informative, this stands out though because this a platform which has a heart for those that have sacrificed their lives and happiness for others and the country. People should really take their time and finances to support them since they are doing a good thing. Thank you once again for opening our eyes to this initiative
VET TIX is a program that I have not thought a lot about. The way that it is there for our utilization when we can is a gift. I am hitched to a Veteran and the possibility that we may have the option to go to an occasion is energizing. By sharing this data, you are putting the information where more approach the advantage. The various occasions you remembered for your audit of the administration, was fascinating and included occasions for all.
Presently, an inquiry I have is about the assistance accessible for Veterans. Do you have a rundown of books that assist companions with realizing how to converse with and comprehend their returning assistance individuals PTSD and assist them with getting these encounters out in the open? We as a whole are so occupied throughout everyday life, there is frequently minimal individual talk. A guide would be useful.
There are individuals who find themselves in situations where they have to carry the burden and defend others. these people deserve recognition as not every not every one can engage with all their heart. this is a great idea and i think that it should be followed to encourage others who are doing the same thing.
What an absolutely fantastic idea.
The men and women through their dedication to defend their country in order to allow us to be FREE deserve the utmost in support of every kind. We so often forget, are so wrapped up in nothing we don’t remember the many who sacrifice everything for us to remain FREE. To provide them and their families with entertainment is such a small thing yet it’s HUGE to them. Thank You Tony again! You are a nonstop Affiliate Machine who promotes the best of the best!

Hello there Tony.
Giving something to those who gave is always a good idea. Active Duty Soldiers are heroes that have sacrificed their own pleasure in order to serve and protect others. These people die in the name of serving their country.That is the most selfless thing you ever hear. Most of them undergo trauma due to wars and may find it hard readjusting to the normal lives even after they are back.
Touching article Tony
Hi Tony,
Veteran benefits something we can all get behind, I am sure. The effects of war on the human mind are sad. We need more programs to support the people who serve our nation on the front line.
Wow, I find it interesting that a simple thing as enjoying a show could combat PTSD. It would be interesting to see the effects of this if it was used regularly and on a larger scale to combat the symptoms in more soldiers. It would reduce the doctor’s bill considerably.
Regards,
Candy Benn
My spouse is a Veteran, we did not know there is a place to get free sports tickets to sporting events, amusement parks, and concerts. Most businesses ask if you are a veteran and give such a small percentage off until does not even affect the entry cost. Thanks for sharing this information, Tony.
hello tony, thanks alot for sharing such an amazing content with us all, i was actually doing some research online when i saw these article, i am really amazed with your work here, so i really want to commend your efforts in bringing up such an amazing site, i already saved these post so as to come back for future referencing, thanks alot for the info
What a wonderful review. VetTix has an amazing mission. It is so crucial that we help support our veterans and active duty service men and women. It’s very reassuring that you included real testimonials in the article. This company definitely has my full support and I would not think twice about promoting them in the future.
Hi there, Vet Tix sounds so awesome and I’m really happy that there is something like this out there and I’ll be sure to check out the website. Military service members and veteran really have a hard time coping and integrating with the society and I’m glad that there is a platform out there that helps out in this regard. I also enjoyed reading the different testimonies from service members and vets

Hi Tony, I’ve read your article “Veteran’s Benefits – Free Tickets”.
What veterans go through each day must be difficult. It’s truly amazing to see an organisation like Vet Tix making an actual difference in these people’s lives.
The messages from the veterans about the impact of the events just got me so teary.
This is a beautiful way to help our veterans navigate life after service as well as those who are currently serving.
You did an amazing job as always!
This is a beautiful way to help our veterans navigate life after service as well as those who are currently serving. They go thru experiences that most of us have no idea about or could ever even imagine. I agree that Vettix offering veteran benefits free tickets for events, concerts, comedy shows and more is a great way to thank them for their service. Good to know someone’s looking out for our vets.
These guys Vettix are amazing. The mission statement is why I use them as often as I can. I used to work right across from Sun Devils stadium and my brother in law does IT for the University. So I have seen first hand how they include our veterans. You stated that 30% have ptsd that was surprising to me, but in a good way. I thought it would have been much higher.
I have a been really happy seeing these veteran and its really nice. It’s true that most of us don’t understand the traumas and horrors witnessed by soldiers and therefore don’t know how to help them. VetTix gives such people an opportunity to donate and transform someone’s life by giving them an opportunity to have a life-changing experience. Cheers
Putting a smile on peoples faces and restoring hope back to life should be everyone’s mission on earth.
The messages from the veterans about the impact of the events just got me so teary. This is a great initiative of serving those who gave their lives to serve us. Integrating them back into the society is priceless.
Finally a good way to treat and respect the people who have laid their life’s for us so that we can move freely without restrictions in the state. I actually value all you have shared here and honestly, this is very worthy and great to see. Thumbs up to you for sharing here. I actually value your post here and the fact that the veterans are treated to the little things that are worthy
It is very important for us to give back to those who are serving us, even if it’s not gonna be monetary, a little respect and recognition can mean a lot to them. I love the idea of veterans benefits free tickets, it’ll be a way of showing them that we cater and we appreciate their efforts in the protection of our lives.
This is really a good one on the benefits that the veterans can get from this vettix company. I am not a soldier or anything like that but I know a number of those returning and I agree that readjusting can be a very hard thing sometimes which means that one needs to deal with a lot. But this company is really helping things and I like the way they made this feel. Good stuff.
I think these people gave so much to their country that they deserve better. Although I think there is more that can be done this kind of reintegration is a start and everyone that can should support it. PTSD is affecting not only the soldiers but can have an effect on the whole family and should be treated with respect. We can do more for these people really. Great article Tony.
Really amazing work these guys are doing. Thanks for highlighting this. I have met many who have experienced PTSD and other mental and physical hardships returning to everyday life and in particular, it affects the families of those who are struggling. I have seen several groups like this, but Vet Tix sounds particularly unique and rewarding.
Hi Tony!! This is a great article about a great organisation that is doing great work for the Veterans. I am a Canadian but it doesn’t matter because either countries military are there so that we can live freely and safely.
So even though this is a great organisation but it is a shame that our veterans need to rely on these kinds of things. Our veterans need to be taken care of so much better.
A different but another great one.
Wow! Tony, thank you so so much for writing an article about this organization. I may not have heard of them otherwise, even though they’ve been around for quite some time. The word needs to be spread about this! Too many veterans are pushed aside- the very least we can do is thank our heros with tickets to an event to be enjoyed with their reunited families/friends.
I feel that, regardless of a citizen’s view on the current state of our country, the men and women that serve our country are doing it from their hearts to provide and protect. I can’t THANK YOU enough for this article and your service! I’ll be telling others.
I am truly proud of you Tony. U have covered an organization that looks after our veterans. What a fantastic organization to help veterans and their families. Going to an event with families and having fun is terrific therapy but unfortunately most of the time it just isn’t within the budget for most veterans. What a wonderful service this company VetTix provides for these special people who dedicate their lives to protecting all of us.
I love that u have covered this so well. Our veterans must be looked after always. They literally give their lives for their Nation.

Hi there Tony
What veterans go through each day must be difficult. It’s truly amazing to see an organisation like Vet Tix making an actual difference in these people’s lives.
It’s true that most of us don’t understand the traumas and horrors witnessed by soldiers and therefore don’t know how to help them. Vet Tix gives such people an opportunity to donate and transform someone’s life by giving them an opportunity to have a life-changing experience.

Hello Tony Lee Hamilton, thank you for sharing this informative and resourceful review article . This article is centered on
Veteran’s Benefits – Free Tickets. This post has a lot of truth in it and I would be glad if everyone can get to see this. I would love to share this post across various platforms.
Wow! What a fantastic organisation to help all the veterans and their families. Going to an event with families and having fun is terrific therapy but unfortunately most of the time it just isn’t in the budget for most people. What a wonderful service you provide for these special people who dedicate their lives to protecting all of us.
I wonder if there is a similar group in Australia who support our returned veterans?
I think this is a very worthwhile organization to sponsor. The services they provide are spectacular. This is something that any vet returning home should be made aware of. I would have liked to have known about this when I returned from overseas duty. The fact that they are including the family in this is great. The sooner a vet can reconnect with family, the sooner the healing can begin. I applaud their efforts.

I had never seen a program like this before where the general public can help Vets get free tickets to sporting events. This is a very noble undertaking. It was great to read the reaction of the vets who got tickets.
How does this work if I don’t know any vets? All in all this is an amazing program.
Thanks for sharing.

Ok this is perfect and very engaging. I really like that you always kept me engaged by reminding me through the images of medals just who this was for. By the time I reached the end I was completely moved and felt honoured to give back to the veterans who kept order on behalf of the world at large. Thank you for promoting this cause, more people need to see this. If you ever need to get further exposure in this regard please reach me through a message and I’ll gladly promote this. Thanks 🙂
Good to know that there is a program like this to make our veterans feel they are recognized and appreciated. It is heartbreaking to read the plight of some great veterans who risked their lives in the battleground and yet they are neglected. I will definitely share this information to my friends with veteran family members. They would surely love this.
Your article is heaven sent Tony. Let the angels carry this message.
Tony, this article is so touchy for one who reads it. I feel the soldiers, veterans integrating into society again. I am not the one myself, but even after the full contract on the ship, I can feel a difference after I come out and go home for vacation. I can’t speak in soldiers’ names but I can share my compassion. I think that the benefits are more than welcome!
You hear about so many tragic stories about PTSD, so it’s great to hear about an organisation like this making a difference. Anyone who has served their country by putting their life on the line should be treated like royalty in my view. It saddens me when I hear about veterans being left to fend for themselves after they have given so much. Thanks for sharing this.
It’s heartbreaking to hear of those who have served and are in need of help that may be hard to get. I love the idea of others (you and me and whomever reads this post and everyone who doesn’t) helping them by providing classses, entertainment, and whatever else could show our respect and let them feel the worth that they really dso possess.
Thanks for the sobering, yet heart-warming post. It is for me as I think about helping out.

Hello awesome article you have here Growing up I really wanted to be a veteran but along the line realized life has it’s own plans for me and today I am not a veteran but if eel really happy for the people who are benefitting from it and these testimonies are really touching. It’s hard to be a vet and life after it wouldn’t be really easy getting along, but with such activities to engage one with there is right rate of them getting back to feel welcome. It’s nice of this company to do such nice thing.
Good one to see that it can really become easier overtime to finally see our army veterans to get the right trecognitiom for their services to the nation and to humanity. Being able to recognise them by doing the very little thing for them too is worthy enough and I love this that I am seeing here. thumbs up.to you for sharing here
This is such a good cause Tony.
Veterans give so much for their country and as we know, the resources available once they come home simply aren’t enough. It’s the little things too, like fostering inclusiveness, that can go such a long way to strengthening a returned service member’s morale.
Programs such as VetTix are invaluable due to the incredible work they carry out.
Thank you for highlighting such a worthwhile cause.

I really was touched by your site. What a great thing. My son is in the Air Force and I am so very proud of him. I think what you are saying in your post people need to know. I don’t believe people are as aware of PDST as they should be. Its a very debilitating illness and can ruin the entire life of someone trying to adjust back into the world. We as civilians will never completely understand what our military veterans go through but we can learn to listen and support organizations like yours that do so much to help heal our heroes and help them to get back to there families and live a happy full life. Thank you for that great information and keep up the good work helping heal our veterans.

Hi Tony and thanks for this great review and these inspiring testimonials. This is a very important, worthy, and necessary service. Socialization is an important aspect of reintegration and family events can be an excellent way for returned veterans and particularly those with PTSD to reconnect. Warfare takes a toll on whole societies and healing can take generations. These are issues, we as a society have to grapple with if we want to escape from cycles of violence. Thanks again for highlighting this essential service. Best regards, Andy
Thanks a lot for sharing this veteran benefits article, it’s a very good one and it has explained a lot to me, it’s good that we treat our veterans with respect and love because they’re always out there fighting for our safety and security. I love the benefits you’ve listed here, they are interesting and worth it.
I had an uncle who had a very hard time readjusting to life after service. I must say that life as a veteran is very hard but this company is making a very huge difference here. It’s a good thing to see that there is a company out there that is trying to help people cope with life. This is a very good thing to see. I should recommend this to others as well.
Vettix, is nothing short of a brilliant idea. We know that social bonding is beneficial to all sorts of treatment which I hope they feel they can get access to such as PSTD etc. I know lots of work need to be done in most countries concerning this.
Personal connection is crucial to people recovering in this area. I realise the ID issue is a problem. Do we know if there is a big push to get this sorted. Does vettix have a campaigning policy on this? Again it will of course need political as well as personal power. A brilliant share.
What a good company and system they have here to help the veterans! I’m glad someone out there is looking for ways to help the veteran assimilate back to their lives at ease.
I think more people would need to know more about Vet Tix and how they can help and donate to them. Perhaps you can also share a link for users to be able to donate to the organization
Thank you so much for sharing with us an interesting and excellent article. The principal content of this article is the Veteran’s Benefits. It is really pretty that you have demonstrated this topic so well in your article. I have learned a lot by reading your article and gained a lot of cognition about Vet Tix. Of the points mentioned in your article, I like Free event tickets for Veterans.
I’ve read and enjoyed your article and I’d like to share it with my friends by posting it in the Facebook community so everyone knows about your article and gets to hear about Veteran Benefits – Free event tickets for Veterans.
Sounds like a phenomenal organization. I think the ID issue needs to be addressed next. Why are Service men and women being discharged without receiving an ID card? As a member of the Valley of the Sun I take pride in seeing our community doing so much to help. I applaud VET TIX for there commitment to our Veterans, and thank you Vets for your service.
Wow, what a wonderful program! Worldwide I believe there needs to be more support and understanding for veterans and what they have been through. We can only start to try to understand by creating space and finding more ways to connect.
Thank you for sharing this great idea, and your positive involvement in this! Looks fantastic!
Wow! So great to see something like this actually manifesting and we are giving the right recognition that our military veterans actually deserve. To be honest, getting them the life and special treatment after retirement or dismissal is really a great thing. I really appreciate all you have shared here and thank you so much for sharing this out here
Our military do everything to protect our country. I believe they deserve all the benefits they can get. My son is in the Air Force and I have not looked into any of the benefits associate with his service. I am just proud of him. I have veteran friends who went thru immense trauma and they don’t get what they really deserve in my opinion. So this is great information!
Not enough people realize the issues that veterans have to deal with when they return. So what a great initiative to help veterans settle back into everyday life again. And it is for free, which is great. It gives them opportunities that they might not otherwise have as well.
It is a great way of giving recognition to those that serve their country and also show the respect that they deserve.
What an amazing idea to do for the veterans that served our countries, giving them something back for risking it all for us.
allowing veterans and families to enjoy days together that they missed out on whilst their loved ones was away on duty.
This article is very intersting and factual, i learned so much for this, i did not realise the amount of veterans suffering for PTSD or other health issues from duty.
Making this sort of activity essential for the mental and physical health of our veterans.
Wow! This is really a great thing to see here to be honest, I am intrigued by the fact that we are finally giving much recommendation and respect to our veterans who have served us with all they have and that is simply awesome to seem thanks so much for sharing this with us all out here
VET TIX is a program that I have not known much about. The fact that it is there for our use when we can is a blessing. I am married to a Veteran and the idea that we might be able to attend an event is exciting. By sharing this information, you are putting the knowledge where more have access to the benefit. The different events you included in your review of the service, was interesting and included events for all.
Now, a question I have is about the help available for Veterans. Do you have a list of books that help spouses know how to talk to and understand their returning service members PTSD and help them get these experiences out in the open? We all are so busy in life, there is often little personal talk. A guide would be helpful.
Tony, I know your son serves and this program is especially close to home. I want to thank your entire family and all veterans and those who support them for their service. On to the power of these events. I myself was not able to serve in the military, so this is no service-related meltdown but I did have a Nervous Breakdown a little over 6 years ago. It gave me some mild PTSD, Bi-Polar Depression, and Severe Social Anxiety. Many of these the same issues our returning troops are facing.
Blogging has been a great source of stamping down the anxiety, but the real test came just under 2 years ago when my brother took me to my first Arizona Diamondbacks Game. That day I entered scared as hell but emerged a champion over my mental illness. I have not had chest pains at the Wal-Mart check out since and am doing so much better.
A charity like this is about more than having fun, more than getting social. It is about a sense of belonging, and liberation. It can change a life as surely as these troops have changed the lifes of the people they have served.
Vet Tix sounds like a perfect and legitimate way to give back to those who gave so much including their lives. Veterans didn’t give up just their physical lives. In many cases, they have given of their time away from family and friends and have done so without much real compensation. This sounds like a great way to give them something to enjoy with their families or friends and thank them for their real service and sacrifice!
This is fantastic that veterans get such fantastic benefits and free tickets. I can only imagine how hard it must be going from serving in the military to then adjusting to normal civilian life again. It must be so terribly hard not only for the veterans but also for the families and loved ones that have to go through that process of adjustment with the veteran.
This is fantastic! I’ve never seen anything like this resource before. My brother served in the US Navy for several years working on submarines, aircraft carriers, and destroyers amongst others. He helped to deescalate the Somalian pirate situation and nowadays works odd jobs restoring out of commission naval ships while trying to pay for his two lovely children. He could DEFINITELY make use of these tickets. I’m sending him the link right now! I hope more people who need it come to know about Vet Tix. Thank you, Tony! You just made his day!
The fact that 30% of veterans experience or will experience PTSD during their lifetime it’s heartbreaking! Having to go throughout such a difficult road while serving in the army and on top of that having to deal with all of the traumatic aftermaths of it all…this type of pain is something that needs to be talked about more. This is coming from someone who has been experiencing PTSD for almost two decades. I really admire the job these people are doing of helping those who need an escape from whatever the situation may be. Wonderful job and amazing opportunities.
Wow! this is great, it is awesome seeing the veteran having fun, fulfilling their dreams and living a normal life, giving back is something that should be done more often there are people who have helped our countries and society, they should always be remembered, this will encourage them and the next veteran generation..this is definitely a post to be shared and re-posted..Thanks for sharing
Thank you for sharing Vet Tix. It is refreshing to see that we are giving back to the veterans and help them slowly adjust to the normal life and just have some fun! I will definitely share this to all my friends just in case that they might know someone who can take the benefits. It is great that the family gets to enjoy it too.
Wow, what a great program! I have always supported veterans’ programs whenever possible. These people give of their lives for us; I believe we should provide what we can in support for them and their families. It is so sad when a vet ends up homeless or, worse yet, suicidal. We owe them more than that.
However, I do believe that vets in our country receive much more help than those in many other areas of the world. And for that, we should all be thankful.
Hi,
yeah, these stats initially surprised me a bit. Returning Iraq and Afghanistan veterans have a bit of trouble readjusting. But I’m glad these initiatives are done: enjoying a good symphony can truly be uplifting. My words of commendation to this organization.
It’s cool Disney is included among the attractions. I would like to go with my daughters.
