NBA superstar LeBron James recently opened up his I Promise school in Akron, Ohio in order to aid those in need. Well, it would appear that former UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones has decided to give back in his own way.
Taking to Instagram, Jon Jones has revealed that he has donated a sizable amount of school supplies to those in need within his home town of Albuquerque, New Mexico.
“It takes a village. This I know to be true. The city of Albuquerque has been incredible to me and my family and shown tremendous support to me throughout my career, but I haven’t always given it back. That changes now. I know a lot of people in this community struggle to get by and I’m taking steps to help.
“I’m donating backpacks filled with the complete list of school supplies to Robert F. Kennedy Charter Middle School. Change is never easy but I’m learning what it takes to make a difference. So much love to @majin__tu @monicamerk @Christensgram @Mandohernandez @Seoulman34 for helping me get this done.”
