World Cup Heritage Challenge

Every four years something magical happens: people all over the world come together to celebrate. Cultures collide, excitement erupts at the same time, we learn about each others traditions, and we realize that all the differences don’t divide us they bring us closer. The 2026 FIFA World Cup brought 48 nations together to celebrate the same game and it’s a great reminder of what’s possible when people choose community over conflict.

Here is what some of our employees had to say about their World Cup experiences:

“Lived in Brno, Czech Republic for 7 years. Still visit and still have many close friends. The scarf is from the local football team, Zbrojovka Brno and the kit is the Czech national jersey. Lifelong dream to go to a World Cup match. Bucket list stuff. Loved it.” – James Frost, Maintenance Tech

“I decided to support Spain because of a wonderful family trip to Madrid a few summers ago and really fell in love with the Spanish way of life. This years world cup has showed that soccer has the power to bring together people of different cultures, languages, and backgrounds with mutual respect and excitement. From Scotland’s tartan army, Norway’s Viking fans, and the magic of Cape Verde; it’s a reminder that inclusion and diversity make experiences like the World Cup even more meaningful by connecting people from around the world.” – Joseph Chapman, Regional Manager
