The Buccaneers have a longstanding partnership with the school system, working together to provide unforgettable experiences for its students and educators. To ensure student safety, the team has added court-sized shade structures and pole pads at 135 elementary schools throughout Tampa Bay. Each month, the team awards its "Buccaneers Best Krewe" Game Ball, recognizing administrators, teachers and staff throughout Hillsborough County for their extended efforts.

Since 2012, we have been honored to provide an exclusive game day experience for hundreds of local military members and their families. At each home game, the Buccaneers host a selection of service members as well as their guests in the Salute to Service Suite, supported by Jabil- welcoming them with a BucVision tribute and a special moment aboard the pirate ship.

For the last 11 years, the Buccaneers have joined forces with the National Pediatric Cancer Foundation (NPCF ™), raising money to help eliminate childhood cancer by donating and having their heads and facial hair shaved or colored by pediatric cancer patients and survivors at their annual Cut and Color Funds the Cure. In that span, the team has raised over $800,000 to fund pediatric cancer research.

To combat food insecurity, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in partnership with The Mosaic Company have opened four food pantries at local elementary schools through their Tackling Hunger Fueled by Mosaic Since 2021, the partnership has provided more than 560,000 meals through donations and pantry access and helped support more than 3,500 families.
