Mission

Founded in 1994, Tickets for Kids® Charities (TFK) is committed to enriching the lives of low-income and at-risk children and their families by including them in a variety of arts, cultural, educational, and sporting events and activities. By creating access to the world of ideas, accomplishment, creativity, and culture, TFK strives to provide experiences that will be a source of enlightenment and inspiration. TFK recognizes that exposure to new experiences helps to expand a child's current understanding of the world, and informs their vision of what may be possible to achieve in the future.
