Today, the Glazer Family, owners of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, crossed the million-dollar threshold for the Glazer Family Small Business Fund, donating funding to an additional 101 local businesses throughout the Tampa Bay and West Central Florida regions. To date, 295 businesses have received funding totaling $1.2 million since the fund was established in December 2024.

Round three of applications for the hurricane relief fund were submitted through eight chambers of commerce selected by the Glazers. They include our Tampa Bay Chamber, North Tampa Chamber, South Tampa Chamber, St. Petersburg Chamber, Tampa Bay Beaches Chamber, Manatee Chamber, Greater Plant City Chamber and Amplify Clearwater. Each chamber was asked to narrow the field of applicants to 15 and the Glazer Family Small Business Fund selected recipients from there.
“The aftermath of Hurricanes Helene and Milton has brought tremendous challenges to our region over the last year. We are inspired by the remarkable strength and perseverance of our local business community as they continue their recovery process,” said Buccaneers Owner and Glazer Family Foundation Chairman Darcie Glazer Kassewitz.
