Off the field, Alstott takes his job as a community servant just as seriously, believing that his responsibilities did not end on the field. In the 2007 off-season, Alstott and his wife, Nicole, formed the Mike Alstott Family Foundation. The foundation’s mission is to uplift the minds, hearts and spirits of families and children on their way to realizing their full potential through various agencies and organizations, in addition to helping individuals overcome life-altering obstacles. Alstott has been an ambassador of the Gasparilla Bowl since its inception and partners with the Bowl on his Sports Buddies event, benefitting Big Brothers Big Sisters. He also spearheads the Gasparilla Bowl’s team visits to the Johns Hopkins All Children’s Hospital during Bowl week. Bullard Family Foundation Founded by Thaddeus Bullard — better known as WWE Superstar, Titus O’Neil — the Bullard Family Foundation works to provide children and their families with special moments, programs and resources to build personal character and improve outcomes in the community. The Foundation aims to create a sense of love and empowerment so that children and their families can experience the greatness that lies within themselves. The charity’s main event, Joy of Giving, unites the Tampa Bay community and uplifts the vulnerable by organizing a day of Christmas cheer, food, gifts and life-changing resources for underserved families. Last year, the Gasparilla Bowl worked in conjunction with the Bullard Family Foundation and onbikes to provide 75 children team-built bicycles, as well as provided 10,000 tickets to the children and families of the Foundation. Jackson in Action 83 Foundation As the son of two military parents, Vincent Jackson was raised with structure, discipline and a respect for all things that make our nation great. His father, Terence, served in the U.S. Army for 21 years where he met Vincent’s mother, Sherry. Jackson attributes his philanthropic passion and modesty to the loving guidance of his parents and focuses his charitable efforts on military youth and family structure of all of our nation’s heroes. Feeling a strong commitment to serve the community in which he lives, Jackson launched the Jackson in Action 83 Foundation in November 2012. The foundation’s mission is to provide support to military families, focusing on the educational, emotional and physical health of children. The Foundation operates several annual programs that strive to strengthen and support both military families and the individuals within them, including active duty members, spouses and children. Last year, The Gasparilla Bowl and Jackson in Action 83 created the first annual Heroes Hangout, a VIP tailgate for 500 military members and their families to honor their service to the country, as well as provided an additional 5,000 military members and first responders with tickets to the game. Ye Mystic Krewe of Gasparilla Last year, the Gasparilla Bowl partnered with EventFest and Ye Mystic Krewe of Gasparilla to become the Official Kickoff to Gasparilla Season.

Every year, YMKG partners with the City of Tampa, Hillsborough County, the U.S. Coast Guard and the Department of Defense to sponsor the YMKG Invasion and Parade, which provides entertainment to millions of people from all over the world.
