RIO GRANDE VALLEY – The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley (UTRGV) Department of Intercollegiate Athletics is donating 200 tickets to Veteran Tickets Foundation, 100 for Vet Tix and 100 for 1st Tix, for the men’s basketball game against UIW, which is Community Heroes Day, on Monday at 6:30 p.m. at the UTRGV Fieldhouse.

Veterans, serving and retired law enforcement officers, firefighters, EMTs, nurses and 911 Dispatchers can claim their tickets at VetTix.org while supplies last.

Season ticket holders can donate their unused tickets for Community Heroes Day and other UTRGV home games by using the ticket transfer feature in Showpass and sending them via email to donate@vettix.org. Ticket donations to 1st Tix are tax deductible and fans will receive an email confirming the benefits of their donation. For more details on the ticket transfer process, visit help.showpass.com.

UTRGV Athletics supports 1st Tix’s mission of providing tickets to events that reduce stress, strengthen family bonds, create lasting memories, and encourage first responders to stay engaged with their communities and American life. 1st Tix supports the brave men and women who answer our emergency calls by honoring their service with positive family and life experiences – during and after service – by offering free tickets to sporting events, concerts, performing arts, educational, and family activities across the country. Since 2008, Vet Tix has distributed over 30 million free event tickets to more than 2.4 million members nationwide.

Fans are encouraged to visit RallyTheValley.com for everything they need to know about attending games at UTRGV.
