Work In Progress

Changing the trajectory of an entire community is a monumental task, but one the LeBron James Family Foundation has never shied away from in Akron. Now in the midst of our biggest undertaking yet in House Three Thirty, we’re once again rolling up our sleeves and getting to work.

Inside the distinguishable exterior of the Tangier are decades of history and years of memories and mementos. As we transition the venue into a next-generation community gathering space, it’s going to take the entire community coming together to bring our new vision to life.

getting to work."

This week, we kicked off renovations with our first day of service, bringing in the St. Vincent-St. Mary football team who volunteered their time and muscle to begin clearing out the space for its next chapter. With the squad putting in hours to remove furniture and other items, the canvas is being cleared first for the J.M. Smucker HomeTown Hall, which will host the ultimate family meals and community conversations.

With weeks and months of hard work ahead of us, we’re thankful to all of our partners and extended family members that will be a part of this rebuilding process. Our vision and hope for what House Three Thirty can be is what keeps us more driven and motivated than ever before.

Together, we will continue to change the trajectory of our home in Akron for generations to come. And no matter how far we’ve come, we’re always just getting started.
