I've worked with Tix for Tots since their inception, and can assure you that they are a lean, volunteer-based organization that provide an escape to kids that can be in some pretty dark places. Plus, it's going to be a great event, giving you an opportunity for a heck of a date night or a memorable evening with friends.
