Today, we recognize Juneteenth and the enduring significance of freedom.

Juneteenth commemorates June 19, 1865, when news of emancipation reached enslaved people in Texas more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation was issued. Since then, it has become the oldest nationally celebrated commemoration of the end of slavery in the United States.

As we reflect on this important day, we honor the resilience, achievements, and contributions of Black Americans and recognize those, including Opal Lee, whose advocacy helped bring greater national recognition to Juneteenth.

The World Cup is here, and the legacy is already underway.

While the world's attention turns to the games, communities across Pennsylvania are already benefiting from the investments being made beyond the tournament itself.

Last month, alongside Philadelphia Soccer 2026, Pittsburgh Public Schools, and Pittsburgh Riverhounds SC, we celebrated the opening of a new mini-pitch as part of the '26 for '26 legacy initiative, creating more opportunities for young people to play, grow, and thrive through soccer.

The World Cup is more than a tournament. It’s inspiration.

When young people watch the world’s best players take the field, they aren’t just watching a game. They’re imagining, dreaming, and believing.

As Stu Holden shares, the World Cup has a unique ability to inspire the next generation and show kids that one day, they could be on that stage too.

A pretty special place to play the world’s game.🗽

We kicked off the World Cup at adidas Home of Soccer under the Brooklyn Bridge, where Just Ball players from Iconic Sports Lab became the first team to take the pitch this summer.

Great soccer, great people, and one incredible backdrop.

A huge thank you to adidas for having us and to Iconic Sports Lab for bringing the energy all day long.

Soccer has a unique power to bring families and communities together.

That's why we're excited to continue expanding access to the game through a new partnership with Torchy's Tacos.

During the World Cup, a portion of proceeds from every Torchy's Kids Meal sold will support our programs that create safe places to play, train coach-mentors, and provide opportunities for children in underserved communities.

The collaboration also includes limited-edition "Soccer Connects Us All" cups and sticker sheets designed to celebrate the game and the connections it creates.

We're grateful to work alongside partners who believe in the power of soccer to build confidence, foster belonging, and create opportunities for the next generation.

The World’s Game belongs to all of us.

As the world prepares to come together tomorrow, young people in our local communities are reminding us what makes this game so special.

It’s not just about the goals, the matches, or the final score. It’s about connection. It’s about community. It’s about bringing people together across cultures, countries, and backgrounds.

Despite our differences, soccer has a unique way of uniting us all. Soccer brings us together.
