The Big Picture – Why Texas TicKids Matters (And Why We Need Funders!) Did you know that?1 in 3 children in DFW lives in poverty? Meanwhile,?thousands of seats at concerts, sports games, and museums go unused every day.? For at-risk youth, these events aren't just entertainment -- they are pathways to opportunities. That’s where?Texas TicKids?comes in. We’re on a mission to?bridge the gap?by providing?free access to the best events for children and families who otherwise wouldn’t have the opportunity. Our approach is simple yet powerful: ???We partner with ticket donors—venues, businesses, and individuals. ???We work with youth-serving nonprofits?to distribute tickets equitably. ???We provide access to high-demand, often sold-out experiences. ???Why does this matter??Because these aren’t just tickets. They’re?opportunities for joy, inspiration, and growth. ???Here’s the challenge:?We need?funding?to scale our impact. Every dollar supports outreach, technology, and infrastructure that makes this possible. (Did you know we only launched 6 months ago? It's time to build this) ???If you’re passionate about giving kids access to opportunities, let’s talk!?Whether it’s?corporate sponsorships, grants, or individual giving, your support fuels this mission. ???Interested in becoming a funding partner??Let’s connect!

Creating Magical Moments ?? Waiting for the show to begin, these two were already filled with wonder at The Dallas Opera's Three Little Pigs. ???? Aged just?5 and 2, these little ones are in foster care and supported by our affiliated charity DFW Angels. Their caregiver said it was a special outing and they enjoyed soaking in the music, storytelling and vibrant stage. At?Texas TicKids, we believe that?every child deserves access to the arts, no matter their circumstances. Thanks to generous donations, we can provide opportunities like this—where children can dream, laugh, and create beautiful memories. ??? Want to help us bring more kids to live events??Get involved today! https://texastickids.org/ #TexasTicKids #DFWAngels #FosterCare #AccessToTheArts #LiveEventsMatter #ChangingLives

Joy is transformative. An advisor sent me this Dallas Morning News article saying it reminded them of what we are doing at Texas TicKids. What a delightful read and high compliment. Awe-inspiring moments—like watching whales sail—reminds us how experiences spark wonder, connection, and lifelong memories. At?Texas TicKids, we believe every child deserves that same joy. Whether it’s a first concert, a thrilling game, or a magical theater performance, these moments can inspire dreams and open new worlds. Become a founding donor -- we are building something unique. ????Have extra tickets??D—donate them! Let’s spread the joy. ?? texastickids.org #TexasTicKids #TheJoyOfExperiences #DonateTickets #InspireDreamshttps://lnkd.in/dwKhy-Fh.

I LOVE Super Bowl commercials! This year's "Somebody" spot really hit home. We may not be the NFL, Special Olympics, or even as big as Big Brothers Big Sisters (though we LOVE collaborating with our local BBBS!), but at Texas TicKids, we know that EVERY child we serve is somebody. Every ticket we share to the arts, museums, or big games helps a youth in need build self-identity, self-confidence, and find their place in the world. I'm so thankful for everyone who gives back to create a brighter future for today's youth. It's an honor to be part of this important work. #SuperBowl #Somebody #MakingADifference #YouthDevelopment #Community #GivingBack #TexasTickids tps://https://lnkd.in/g7mxC4UZ
