For each ticket purchased, fans received a $150 “credit” to give to the charity of their choice—and could select one and conveniently donate to any of nearly 1.8 million charities on JustGive.

Where did the money go? St. Jude’s Children’s Research Hospital was the top charity, receiving nearly $15,000 from 55 fans. University Cooperative School ($13,777) and Humane Society of King County ($13,024) were also popular choices.

Charities focused on health, education and animals made up the largest percentage. Local organizations were a big focus with donations to Buddhist Peace Fellowship, Yakima Valley Memorial Hospital, Pacific Northwest Ballet Association and many, many more—with more than 1,500 charities receiving gifts from Dave and Tim fans.
