Philadelphia 76ers

The Philadelphia 76ers are ensuring Philadelphia’s passionate fans are in the building this weekend by donating 500 tickets for each remaining home game this round to local community groups making a difference across the city. Tonight, the organization will host frontline medical professionals from Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia and Penn Medicine, along with local educators selected by community partners across Philadelphia and Camden. On Mother’s Day, the 76ers will also welcome 500 moms and children through partnerships with several local nonprofit organizations. More than basketball. This is about celebrating and supporting the communities that make Philadelphia special.

The stage gets bigger. The pressure gets louder. Same fight, different round. 2026 National Basketball Association (NBA) Playoffs start today.

There’s nothing like playoff time in Philly. The energy, the pride, the city showing up in full force is what makes this moment so special. We announced today activations for the 2026 NBA Playoffs, presented by Toyota. From in-arena moments to digital-first experiences, every touchpoint is designed to bring fans closer to the game and each other throughout the postseason run. 🏀 Read more here: https://lnkd.in/ecf_rGnE

We are proud to share the incredible success of our Annual Sixers Youth Foundation Gala — An Evening on the Court. On March 26, 2026, more than 1,100 supporters gathered at The Fillmore Philadelphia to celebrate the mission and impact of the Sixers Youth Foundation and our shared commitment to expanding opportunity for young people. The evening brought together ownership, board leadership, partners, community champions, current players, coaches, and team legends for a night centered on connection, purpose, and philanthropy. Highlights included: - A headline performance by Ja Rule, with a special guest appearance from Freeway - Silent and live auctions featuring once-in-a-lifetime experiences and exclusive memorabilia - Interactive activations and partner experiences that energized guests throughout the evening - A community-driven 50/50 raffle supporting youth programming Thanks to the extraordinary generosity of our sponsors, in-kind partners, and individual donors, the gala raised $2.6 million to support youth across Philadelphia, Camden, and the greater Delaware Valley region. This milestone reflects the power of partnership and what is possible when a community comes together to invest in the next generation. We are deeply grateful to everyone who helped make the evening such a success.

We’re proud to celebrate the incredible impact of our 2026 Reading Challenge, presented by Morgan & Morgan, P.A.   Together, we engaged hundreds of students across School District of Philadelphia and Camden City School District, encouraging young readers ages 7–11 to build consistent literacy habits and discover the joy of reading during National Reading Month, this past March.   The results speak for themselves: • 128,917 total hours read • 88 students surpassed the 760-minute goal • Our top reader, 5th grader Jordan Holloway, logged an impressive 791 minutes!   Through initiatives like “Boards for Books,” we’re also turning rebounds into real impact by raising (so far) over $22,500 this season to expand access to books and support literacy programs in our communities.
