They are.

I spoke to a friend who is related to someone high up in LA's foster care agency. Apparently, it was a clique of managers and their staff that saw these donations as their prerogative to take for themselves - one of the perks of the job. It wasn't just the tickets; there were also thousands of dollars worth of gift certificates and vouchers intended for the foster families that made their way in to these people's pockets. Sickening.
