    Donation Agreement

    By donating tickets through The Legacy Foundation's Seat Forward program, you agree to these terms and conditions. These terms govern the donation, transfer, and use of event ticket rights donated to our organization for the benefit of young people, veterans and military families, and families facing hardship.

    Donor Representations

    By submitting a ticket donation, you represent and warrant that:

    • You own or control the tickets and have full authority to donate and transfer them
    • The tickets are valid and have not been previously transferred, sold, or claimed
    • The tickets are not counterfeit, stolen, or obtained fraudulently
    • Donating the tickets does not violate the ticket issuer's terms, venue rules, your employer's policies, any sponsor restrictions, any league or team restrictions, any transferability or resale restrictions, or applicable law
    • You are donating the tickets charitably and are not acting as a commercial ticket broker
    • The information you provide is accurate and complete

    Transfer of Tickets

    Upon successful transfer, all rights to the donated tickets transfer to The Legacy Foundation. Tickets cannot be returned once transferred. You authorize us to put each donated seat to its highest-impact charitable use under the Seat Use Waterfall described below.

    Seat Use Waterfall

    Every donated seat is handled in the following priority order: (1) Placed — offered, through vetted partner organizations, to a young person, veteran, or family; (2) Mission-directed placement — directed to a flagship recipient for impact storytelling; and (3) Acknowledged — you receive a written acknowledgment and, where applicable, an impact update. Seats are distributed for charitable program use and are not sold or brokered.

    Unsuitable or Restricted Tickets

    If a ticket is nontransferable, subject to resale restrictions, issued under a special contractual arrangement, or otherwise unsuitable for transfer or charitable monetization, The Legacy Foundation may decline the donation, return the ticket if feasible, place it without monetization, or allow it to expire. The Foundation conducts a transferability review before any donated ticket is monetized.

    Tax Deductibility

    Ticket donations to The Legacy Foundation (EIN: 20-4557510) are generally tax-deductible as charitable contributions to the extent allowed by law. The donor is solely responsible for determining the fair market value (FMV) of donated tickets and for tax deductibility; we do not provide valuations. Noncash contributions valued above $5,000 generally require the donor to obtain a qualified appraisal and file IRS Form 8283. Where the Foundation monetizes a donated ticket that was the subject of a donor's Form 8283 within three years of the donation, the Foundation may be required to file IRS Form 8282. We recommend consulting a tax advisor. No goods or services are provided to the donor in exchange for a ticket donation.

    Acknowledgment

    Upon receipt and verification of donated tickets, we will provide a written acknowledgment that includes: The Legacy Foundation's legal name and EIN, the date of the donation, a description of the donated tickets by event and quantity (without a dollar valuation), a statement that no goods or services were provided in exchange (if true), and a statement that the donor is responsible for determining fair market value and tax deductibility.

    Limitations

    We accept ticket donations in good faith but cannot guarantee that all donated tickets will be placed or used. We are not responsible for event cancellations, changes, or any issues arising from the original ticket purchase or venue policies.
