Once-in-a-lifetime experiences and the passion for soccer both start inside the Y! Yesterday at the Jamaica YMCA, Airbnb announced it will provide 1,000 FIFA World Cup 2026™ tickets to local youth from communities across New York and New Jersey! Among those surprised with tickets were Y kids from MS 217Q Robert A. Van Wyck. We are grateful for this amazing opportunity from Airbnb. As Sharon Greenberger, President & CEO of the YMCA of Greater New York says, “Airbnb’s generosity will give hundreds of New Yorkers the opportunity to experience the magic of World Cup soccer firsthand, strengthening their connection to the game and creating memories that will last a lifetime.”
