Sligh Middle Magnet School, AKA Thaddeus M. Bullard Academy, hosted its namesake’s “Joy of Giving” celebration last Saturday.

WWE superstar Titus O’Neil and his sons, TJ and Titus Bullard, were assisted by 250 volunteers from his Bullard Family Foundation and the City of Tampa to distribute more than 5,000 gifts to local families.
