This is a multimillion-dollar facility in Ohio that offers a range of medical services like:

  • Lab services
  • Dental
  • Optometry
  • Pharmaceutical
  • Mental health

I Promise HealthQuarters will open next year and close to other I Promise facilities like the I Promise Village and I Promise School.

The medical center has teamed up with local health providers who include:

  • Peg’s Foundation
  • Coleman Health Services
  • AxessPointe

Together, they plan to give local residents affordable healthcare.

According to LeBron, it takes a whole village to raise a child the right way, and that’s what he’s trying to do through his Foundation.

And the LeBron James Family Foundation executive director, Michele Campbell, revealed that their work will keep expanding in ways they never thought possible.

Accessing affordable healthcare is essential for low-income families, and this need was heightened thanks to Covid.

So, the Foundation brought the community together to create a roof with all the experts.

Naturally, this would not be possible without help from like-minded partners who also wanted to help the community.

In 2018, I Promise School was launched courtesy of the LeBron James Family Foundation and Akron Public Schools.

Its mission was, and remains, to help the community’s most at-risk students.

This is a mission LeBron takes personally because he visited the students himself on the last day of school.

LeBron recently became a billionaire.

But he’s not letting that get to his head.

Instead, he is following basketball legend Michael Jordan’s example.

Last year, Jordan donated $10 million for new and affordable medical clinics.

With stars helping out the community personally, the next generation is in safe hands.
