Dan Skuta: Helping the Community through Sacksonville

Former Jacksonville Jaguars linebacker Dan Skuta established the Sacksonville brand to fight a very real problem affecting thousands throughout the local community: childhood hunger.
With Sacksonville, Dan Skuta and his team generously donate a nutritious sack lunch to a local child for each t-shirt sold, ensuring local fans can support their favorite team and a hungry child in need with every purchase.

Dan Skuta Helps the Local Community through Sacksonville

Skuta and Sacksonville are committed to stomping out hunger while giving Jags fans a powerful way to lift their favorite squad to victory.

Each Sacksonville t-shirt displays high-quality graphics in support of the Jags’ bone-crushing defense. And the proceeds from each shirt sold online go directly toward a full sack lunch that helps a local child be their best and build a better future.

For nine years, Skuta chased down quarterbacks and made life miserable for the opposition on the gridiron. With Sacksonville, Skuta looks to tackle a new adversary, and to ensure local children have the nutrition they need to realize victory in their own lives.
