🏈❤️ TWO FIRST FALCONS GAMES. THREE GENERATIONS. ONE UNFORGETTABLE MEMORY! Thanks to the generosity of our @atlantafalcons ticket donor, a grandfather and his teenage grandson experienced their FIRST Falcons game together at @mercedesbenzstadium . And the Falcons WON! ❤️🖤 Beat @49ers Grandpa had dreamed of attending a game for years. His grandson had never been to a live football game. What neither expected was how much this day would mean to both of them. His mom shared: “You didn’t just give us tickets; you gave us happiness, connection, and a memory that our family will cherish forever.” And in his handwritten thank-you note, her son wrote about having the “BEST time of my life” and getting to know his grandpa. ❤️ THIS IS MORE THAN A TICKET. #MVKATL #MoreThanATicket #TicketsInspire #RiseUp

84 tickets. One DREAM of a night! 🏀💙✨ Thanks to the generosity of @atlantadream, 84 @mvkatl youth and family members and chaperones experienced an ELECTRIC playoff game at @statefarmarena! OVERTIME, a DREAM WIN, and memories that went far beyond the scoreboard! 🙌 💙 A 10th grader shared: “The game was electric and absolutely the highlight of my week. It gave me one-on-one time I haven’t had in a while with just my parents.” 💙 A mom shared that her teenage son, who was initially concerned the arena might be overwhelming, spent the game dancing and cheering! “Watching him engage so fully was a priceless moment for our family.” ❤️ One young fan wrote: “This is my first time seeing a female basketball team play. Thank you so much.” 🏀 And a @gcachampions mom shared that her daughter, who had little interest in basketball before the game, is now excited to play and declared: “I’m going to be the next Angel Reese!” 🌟 First WNBA games. Priceless family moments. BIG DREAMS inspired! THANK YOU, @atlantadream, for giving MVK families so much more than a basketball game! 💙🏀 #MVKATL #TicketsInspire #MoreThanATicket #AtlantaDream

🏀❤️ 200 TICKETS. ONE @atlhawks WIN. COUNTLESS MEMORIES! What a night at @atlhawks! Thanks to the generosity of the Atlanta Hawks, 💯💯 MVK youth and chaperones cheered on the home team to an exciting 113–110 victory over the @okcthunder ! 🎉 But the excitement goes far beyond the final score! For MVK youth and families, attending a Hawks game is an opportunity to spend quality time together, for students to connect with friends outside the classroom, and for community groups to share an experience cheering for their hometown team. Sports bring people together, strengthen relationships, build community, and create memories that last long after the final buzzer! 🏀❤️ Thank you, @atlhawks, for giving our youth and families so much more than a ticket! #MostValuableKids #MVKATL #TrueToAtlanta #MoreThanATicket

As we tiptoe into fall weather, @mvkatl is beyond grateful for our partnership with @thezadieproject and @souperjennyatl . Last week @morehouse_upwardb students shared 96 quarts of delicious, nutritious soup with their families or friends before heading to afternoon sports or extracurricular activities or their after-school job. This defines community support and #whywemvk #morethanaticket #mvkatl #thezadieproject

Did you know that #MoreThanATicket plays an important role in @mvkatl programming? 🎬 A great example is our partnership with the @atljewishfilm. Students who attend AJFF’s Field Trip Day during the festival have the opportunity to take their experience one step further by participating in the AJFF Student Filmmaking Competition. Today, students from MVK recipient agency, @gcachampions came together at @watchaibtv AIB Studios in Midtown Atlanta, the nonprofit media production facility of AIB Network, for AJFF filmmaking workshops. They learned from professionals and began preparing to create their own films for the competition! 🎥 This is what #MoreThanATicket is all about — creating opportunities that extend beyond attending an event and give youth the chance to learn, create and participate. Thank you to @AJFF and AIBNetwork for giving MVK youth the opportunity to go from watching films to making them! ✨

DID YOU KNOW? @mvkatl accepts college sporting AND cultural event tickets!!🏈🏀🎭 A donated ticket can be more than a great day out — A ticket to a college sporting or cultural event gives youth the opportunity to explore a college campus and imagine themselves there one day. After a recent donation of @ugaathletics football tickets, one MVK parent shared: It was our first time at @universityofga and it was wonderful! The boys loved visiting the college campus. My oldest is currently looking at colleges to attend, so this was a great bonus for our time there! Have college sporting or cultural event tickets YOU can’t use? Please consider donating them to MVK!*💙 link in the bio @universityofga @georgiatech @georgiastateuniversity @emoryuniversity @oglethorpeuniv @kennesawstateuniversity @agnesscottcollege @cityofatlantaga @mvk_teenambassadors #MVKATL #TicketsInspire #MoreThanATicket

That’s gonna be me one day, Mom.🩰💙 In celebration of National Dance Day, @mvkatl is sharing a special note from an MVK mom whose young ballerina attended Atlanta Ballet’s Passion & Pride on Saturday: My daughter was so inspired and said, ‘that’s gonna be me one day, Mom.’ My heart melted… You have shown my daughter firsthand what her life can look like …. Thanks to @atlantaballet , MVK youth and families were invited to performances of Passion & Pride, giving young dancers and arts lovers the chance to experience the beauty of ballet firsthand. Another mom shared, “I appreciate MVK’s generosity and extraordinary efforts to expose the next generation to the arts.” Sometimes a ticket doesn’t just provide a performance at the ballet. It can help a child see what her own future might look like. 🩰✨ Thank you, Atlanta Ballet, for inspiring the next generation! #MVKATL #TicketsInspire #MoreThanATicket #NationalDanceDay #AtlantaBallet

Last night,💯 @mvkatl youth and chaperones experienced the magic of @disneyonice at Gas South Arena, thanks to our generous friends at @feldentertainment ! And judging by these notes, there was plenty of Disney magic in the arena: “I wanted to extend my sincere thanks for the Disney on Ice tickets. My 7-year-old son and I had the opportunity to attend, and we had an amazing time together. Seeing the excitement on his face throughout the show made the experience especially memorable. We truly appreciate your generosity and the opportunity to create such a fun and meaningful family memory.” “They screamed with joy, laughed, and they both were in awe. From the great seats to the show, everything was awesome!” 🥹⛸️✨ Thank you, Feld Entertainment, for giving MVK families opportunities to experience these special moments together. 💙 #MVKATL #TicketsInspire #MoreThanATicket #DisneyOnIce

Thanks to @feldentertainment , 💯 MVK youth and chaperones experienced Monster Jam at @gassouthdistrict ! One young fan shared: “I had an amazing time.
