New collaboration supports LLS while making more great seats available to the summer’s most sought-after concerts.

The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society has partnered with Tickets-for-Charity®  to offer fans a convenient way to purchase great seats to high-demand concerts – Coldplay, Billy Joel & Elton John, Kenny Chesney, Counting Crows and many more – while supporting the fight against blood cancers. Seats on Tickets-for-Charity’s website are available at face value plus a separate donation amount that now may also directly benefit LLS. Learn more

 

Tickets-for-Charity connects with artists, managers, venues and promoters to set aside an allotment of seats to be sold on its website for typically the same price or better than fans would pay elsewhere. The difference with Tickets-for-Charity is that 100% of the benefit above face value goes directly to supporting partner charities, including LLS, and the original face value of the ticket is paid back to the artist. Tickets-for-Charity charges an industry standard service fee to help maintain the platform and facilitate all donation processing.

 

Recently profiled in The Wall Street Journal, Tickets-for-Charity CEO Jord Poster notes that the purpose of Tickets-for-Charity is to give concertgoers the opportunity to help others. "All we're doing is creating a socially positive option for consumers when they can't find what they want," Poster says. "Rather than paying $400 to a broker or scalper, they can pay $400 to Tickets-for-Charity. The difference is that most of the benefit is going to charity rather than a secondary reseller."
