For most is was a bitter moment to see LeBron James make his decision to take his talents to South Beach on national television, but for some it will bring a sense of happiness.

The Akron Beacon Journal reports that LeBron James is giving back to his hometown by donating $240,000 from the nationally televised announcement to the renovation of a facility at Akron's Joy Park.

It will now become a new Boys and Girls Clubhouse at 825 Fuller Street.

The organization is now registering kids for the program and plans to open on September 12.
