IATS is focused on nonprofits, and we care
sincerely about the health and sustainability of the sector. We
work with nonprofits to help you be more efficient, freeing up
resources so you can focus on what matters most: your mission.
Our Efforts
We aim to play a leadership role in building and growing the nonprofit
sector and nonprofit technology communities, through our board
level participation in the Washington DC based ePhilanthropy
Foundation. In addition, we support the Association
of Fundraising Professionals, the Association
of Healthcare Philanthropy, and the NTEN
Nonprofit Technology Enterprise Network.
We hire account managers who share a passion
for working with nonprofit leaders on issues of concern to our
communities: education, culture, health, justice, and the environment.
All of our account managers understand the nonprofit sector and
have empathy for your issues, organizational culture, and decision-making
processes.
Locally, each year our staff receives a paid
volunteer day to support a charity of the office's choosing.
The Ticketmaster Foundation
IATS is a Ticketmaster company. Ticketmaster is a progressive business
that aims to provide service and support to the communities where
we operate. The Ticketmaster Foundation, a registered charity
for over 20 years manages Ticketmaster’s charitable contributions
in Vancouver. Its mandate is to help children, especially those
most in need, by providing funds to children’s charities,
to educational institutions, and to social aid organizations.
Our main fundraising event is the annual Dennis Kearns / Ticketmaster
Foundation Invitational Golf Tournament, which has raised over
$500,000 for these charities over the past 12 years. Its success
has been thanks to the generosity of all the participants and
volunteers who have helped to support our vision of a brighter
future for all children.
The "Tickets for Kids” program is
a public service program initiated by Ticketmaster and coordinated
with national philanthropic organizations throughout the country.
The program channels family, arts, sporting events and music entertainment
tickets to deserving youth who have proven their willingness to
contribute to their community in some capacity. Tickets for Kids
gives many children the opportunity to attend live events that
they might not have previously had the opportunity to attend.
