Team LeBron had a big win in the NBA All-Star game and an enormous win for �鶹��Ƶ’s I Promise Scholars, a program that provides higher education opportunities for underserved students in Northeast Ohio. The competition between the NBA’s top players raised a whopping $550,000 for the I Promise Scholars program, which will lead directly to much-needed support for current and future �鶹��Ƶ I Promise students. The funds raised by Team LeBron will support important educational expenses such as books, supplies, room and board and other needs that are critical to the success of I Promise students residing on the �鶹��Ƶ campus.

In 2020, �鶹��Ƶ provided the opportunity for a college education to all eligible students in the LeBron James Family Foundation’s (LJFF) oldest I PROMISE Network class by guaranteeing four years of tuition, and one year of room and meal plan.

The tuition program was the culmination of an existing partnership between �鶹��Ƶ and the LJFF in which I PROMISE students attend summer enrichment college preparation programs at the university; those existing programs have continued.

“We are so pleased to take our partnership with the LeBron James Family Foundation to this next level and welcome these students fully into the �鶹��Ƶ family,” �鶹��Ƶ President Todd Diacon said at the time. “�鶹��Ƶ looks forward to the time when our campus is teeming with I PROMISE students.”
