If you have physical tickets you would like to donate, please mail them to us at PO Box 21624 Little Italy, Vancouver, BC V5l 5G3. Please include your contact information (full name, address including postal code, email and phone number) for a charitable tax receipt and we will get them into the hands of deserving children!
We accept a Minimum of 2 tickets (no single ticket) and 24-48 hours notice before the event. This allows us enough time to contact our partner agencies, for them to find a suitable recipient and get the tickets into their hands. We are closed on weekends, therefore we are unable to accept or distribute any event tickets during this time.
Tax Receipts
If your tickets are a personal or corporate donations, you qualify for a charitable tax receipt. When making the donation, please include your full name, address including postal code, email and phone number to receive a charitable tax receipt.
The amount returned on the tax receipt will be for the base price of the tickets (GST and service fees will not be included on your tax receipt), as long as you are able to provide an invoice or receipt with a breakdown of all of the costs.
If you do not have an invoice or receipt for your tickets, we encourage you to contact the organization that you purchased your tickets from as we are unable to provide a tax receipt without this documentation. Tax receipts are issued quarterly.
More Than A Ticket
Kids Up Front delivers more than just a ticket to deserving kids. Children and youth are given the chance to enjoy sports, arts, and cultural events they may otherwise not have the opportunity to attend.
When you donate your unused tickets, you are giving deserving children in Greater Vancouver and the Fraser Valley the opportunity to experience their first concert, see their sports heroes live, or spend a day learning at a cultural event. Not only do these kids gets to experience a day they will never forget but they also get to feel like they are a part of something bigger, and be involved in their community!
Misuse of Tickets
Kids Up Front does not tolerate ticket scalping. It is against our policies for tickets to be resold for profit by the agent or the recipient. Tickets are never given to volunteers, friends or neighbors, unless attending as a chaperone or as directed by the donor.
