LEBRON KING JAMES, AKRON, OHIO'S GIFT TO THE NBA & THE WORLD

For over 15 years, "Don" had the distinct honor of serving as a Graphic Designer, Art Director, and Marketeer for LeBron James Grandmothers Fan Club. This wasn't just a project; it was a decade-and-a-half journey documenting the spirit of Akron’s "Favorite Son" through the eyes of the great philanthropic women who cheered for him the loudest.

Under the visionary leadership of the club's founder, the late Alder Chapman, the fan club earned the official endorsement of LeBron James, the LeBron James Family Foundation, his mother Gloria, his wife Savannah, and his Corporate Executive Team. 

As the lead creative, I was responsible for:

• LeBron James Grandmother's Fan Club Brand Identity: Crafting the visual language of the club across various media for global exposure.
• Official Graphic Designer & Art Director: Creating artwork for the club’s mission, their media darling image, and their relationship with the LeBron James Family Foundation.

My involvement was deeply personal. I was proud to call Mrs. Alder Chapman a close friend. Her passion for the LeBron James Grandmothers Fan Club was infectious, inspirational, and an absolute joy,
