TAMPA, Fla. — At every home game, The Tampa Bay Lightning honor a local person or nonprofit working to impact our community.
Laura Calco and Nanci March were honored as the Lightning Community Hero during the game on Dec. 22.
Calco and March work with the Joshua House. It’s a beacon of hope for abused, abandoned, and neglected children in the Tampa Bay community.
Both have spent countless hours serving hundreds of children when they need support.
The Lightning Foundation and the Lightning Community Hero Program presented by Jabil donated $50,000 to Friends of Joshua House on their behalf.
