LeBron James has been busy lately. The basketball-fueled movie “Hustle,” which he produced, just debuted on Netflix. Forbes announced that he had reached billionaire status. And now, his foundation has announced plans to open a multimillion dollar medical center in Ohio.
The news broke earlier this week that in 2023, the LeBron James Family Foundation plans to I Promise Healthquarters, a clinic offering medical, dental, optometry, mental health, pharmaceutical and lab services.
The clinic will be built near the I Promise School and I Promise Village, previous projects from the foundation.
“I Promise HealthQuarters represents the latest innovation in the LeBron James Family Foundation’s work to redefine what family looks like while providing a new model for community building,” the foundation wrote in a statement.
Earlier this year, James partnered with Crypto.com sharing that the duo will start an educational program - allowing fellow Akron residents to learn about the opportunities in cryptocurrency.
“Access to affordable healthcare has always been a critical need for our families—and further heightened by the pandemic—so we began rallying our community to bring the experts together under one trusted roof,” Michele Campbell, executive director of the LeBron James Family Foundation, told CBS News.
