LeBron James and his wife, Savannah James, are all set to embrace a new chapter in their lives as the star player has left the Los Angeles Lakers for possibly his last season on the court. Amid this, LeBron James’ family has been hit with pretty difficult news as they try to deal with their new life in the Philadelphia 76ers.
LeBron James’ family hit with difficult news as his family tries to embrace a new chapter
A few days ago, LeBron James’ foundation, the LeBron James Family Foundation (LJFF) recently lost a beloved member of the organisation.In a heartbreaking post, the LeBron James Family Foundation (LJFF) posted, “Some people make you feel seen. Some people make you feel valued. Some people change your life. Mrs. Angel Whorton did all three. As a founding staff member & intervention specialist at the I PROMISE School in 2018, Angel dedicated her life to loving, understanding, and advocating for students who needed her most.”The post added, “Her bright spirit, contagious smile, and unforgettable hugs made every person around her feel seen and valued. One of our students once described her perfectly as the “best part of my day, every single day.” After years of courageously battling breast cancer, Angel’s strength, hope, and love continued to inspire everyone around her. As we celebrated her life this past weekend, we are reminded that her impact will live on through the countless students, families, and colleagues who were fortunate enough to know her.”The post by LeBron James Family Foundation (LJFF) continued, “Her name was Angel, and she truly lived up to it, bringing light, love, and hope to every person whose life she touched. Thank you, Angel, for showing us that the impossible is possible. You will forever be part of the I PROMISE family. 💙”
LeBron James and his wife, Savannah James, remain closely connected to the communities in Ohio through their charity
For the unversed, LeBron James set up the LeBron James Family Foundation (LJFF) in 2004 for underprivileged families and children in the NBA legend’s hometown Akron, Ohio.Later, in 2018, the foundation set up I PROMISE School in partnership with Akron Public Schools for underprivileged children.In 2016, the former Los Angeles Lakers’ legend LeBron James opened up about it as he said, “It will mean everything to me…That’s why we have so many people looking after them, from mentors to I’ve got high school kids looking after our kids. We have the University of Akron looking after our kids.”While LeBron James and his wife Savannah James have actively worked towards their charity foundation, all eyes remain on their life as the NBA legend joins the Philadelphia 76ers for the new season.
