WOMEN’S HEALTH
The NFL and Jacksonville Jaguars Foundation
are committed to saving lives from breast
cancer and addressing the unequal burden
of cancer in underserved communities. In
recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness
Month in October, Jaguars coaches, players,
and fans all sport their pink gear. Local
sororities distribute more than 40,000 pink
ribbons to fans as they enter the gates
during the Breast Cancer Awareness game.
During the pregame ceremony and national
anthem, breast cancer survivors hold the
American flag and large pink ribbon across
the football field in honor of thousands of
survivors in the Jacksonville community.
The Jaguars Foundation, along with the
Jaguars Women’s Association (JWA) led by
Joelle Caldwell, wife of General Manager
Dave Caldwell, and Michaela Bradley,
wife of Head Coach Gus Bradley, hold an
annual workshop for women and men at
the stadium each October. Meet Me at the
50 allows our fans to interact with Jaguars
coaches, players and special guests Suzy
Kolber and Jon Gruden as they break down
the fundamentals of football. Each year
the proceeds from the event benefit a
local organization that provides services
for women to be checked and treated for
breast cancer, including Baptist Health’s
Hill Breast Center and In the Pink.
