Player Philanthropy

Lightning players are proud to give back to the community that does so much to support them. Each season, players visit local hospitals and nonprofits to support initiatives that uplift children and families throughout the Tampa Bay region. During the holidays, players spread cheer by taking children from community organizations on shopping sprees—creating joyful memories and making a meaningful impact in the lives of those they meet.
