LeBron James recently signed a $100 million contract with the Cleveland Cavaliers and is putting his fortune to great use.
On Tuesday, the NBA champion brought 5,000 kids and their families to an amusement park in Ohio. According to reports, the annual trip to Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio encourages Akron kids to focus on their education before entering King James’ “I Promise” initiative, which offers a free college education after high school.
Bron teamed up with Chase Bank to help pay for the event, which also offers an opportunity for a sit-down conversation with the King himself. A rep from Cedar Point stated, “It’s an honor to work with a wonderful, dedicated group of people who provide so much to Northeast Ohio and we’re happy to provide a ‘Best Day’ experience for their program families here at the park.”
To whom much is given, much is often requested – and LeBron James is showing and proving.
