On July 20th the Philadelphia Union play host to the Portland Timbers at 7:30PM. This will also be "Celebrate America with Tickets for Troops" night at PPL. We are asking all of the Sons of Bens members that are able to help us provide Tickets for Troops. For every $40 we raise, that will provide 1 sideline ticket to the game, on-field recognition and Union memorabilia for active members of the U.S. Military and their families. The Philadelphia Union has agreed to match us for every ticket we are able to purchase. The donation will be made out to the Veterans Ticket Foundation on behalf of the Sons of Ben through the Philadelphia Union. To learn more about the Veterans Ticket Foundation please go to http://vettix.org/. We have a cut off date of July 7th
This is the first step in a number of sustainable partnerships the Sons of Ben will be making with a military organizations. More details soon.
FOR ACTIVE MILITARY OR VETS INTERESTED IN SECURING DONATED TICKETS:
VetTix.org will handle all of the ticket distributions as part of this initiative once collections are closed and the Union match and deliver the tickets. You can contact them through their website and they'll be able to give you further direction.
Thank you for your interest and your service!
