Titus O'Neil is always giving things away, and the WWE superstar now wants to start a tradition of taking care of Bay area teachers for the holidays.
In it's inaugural year, the initiative—which provides a fancy dinner for teachers and their guests—will look a little different because of COVID-19, and it finds O’Neil looking to know about teachers who’ve “gone to extraordinary lengths this year to transition in all sorts of ways to support their students' studies whether that is in school or through learning at home.”
In a video posted to Instagram, O’Neil—flanked by chef Ferrell Alvarez who will host and cook the dinner at his Seminole Heights restaurant Rooster & the Till—asked for folks with teacher friends to “tell us in the comments why the teacher you are nominating deserves this and tag them” in Rooster & the Till’s Instagram post.
Two groups of winners will dine on Dec. 16 and Dec. 23. The contest closes this weekend on Sun. Dec. 13.
