## Resource

Ayr is forging a new friendship with Providence, Rhode Island, sparked by Scottish fans’ stellar behavior and generosity during the World Cup. These fans raised funds for a children’s hospital, taught bagpipes in schools, and pumped $35 million into Providence’s economy. Now, the Ayr-Providence Friendship Initiative is pushing for a formal pact to deepen ties in tourism, business, education, sports, and culture — even eyeing a direct flight between Glasgow Prestwick and Providence. Backed by South Ayrshire Council, this unofficial but powerful alliance could unlock major economic and cultural opportunities for both cities.
