Seattle showed up in a big way today as the Seattle Seahawks celebrated their Super Bowl LX win with a championship parade through downtown, with roughly 1 million fans turning out.

The parade even passed by our Downtown Seattle YMCA and you could feel what makes Seattle special: community, pride, and connection. We loved hosting a Seahawks watch party for our staff and board community, so we could cheer together, connect, and belong. That is what the Y has been about for 150 years, bringing people together in moments big and small.

💙💚 Congrats, 12s

🏈 Huge congratulations to the Seattle Seahawks on the Bowl championship!

We’re especially proud of the leaders who are connected to the Y. Sam Darnold, Uchenna Nwosu and Julian Love stepped up on the field this season AND in our community.

Sam Darnold generously autographed a jersey for our sweepstakes.

Julian Love brought warmth, coats, shoes, and haircuts to families at the Winter Warm-Up at the Matt Griffin YMCA — showing what it means to care about one’s neighbors.

And through the Uchenna Nwosu Foundation, more than 350 students received backpacks, school supplies, and a day full of fun and care.

This weekend’s NFC Championship has us thinking about more than football.

As Seattle and LA face off, the YMCA of Greater Seattle and the YMCA of Metropolitan Los Angeles are leaning into what we do best — community, connection, and a little friendly competition.

Our CEO, Loria Yeadon, has officially issued a Y vs. Y challenge with real stakes, real fun, and a real purpose: shining a light on how sports support youth development, belonging, and confidence for kids across our communities. Want to support our work?

Please give here:
https://give.seattleymca.org/campaign/762449/donate

Cheer for your team. Rep your city. And take a moment to learn how the Y — alongside partners like the NFL — uses sports to create positive outcomes for youth all year long.
Game on. 🏈
