Michael Jordan is giving back. The NBA legend is becoming a health care champion to people in need in Charlotte. Novant Health announced Thursday that the Hornets’ owner was opening a second health clinic in an underserved area of Charlotte that has little or no health care.
It’s part of a $7 million commitment Jordan made three years ago to help the community, and the result of his outreach is making a huge impact.

“The impact of the first clinic has been measurable and if COVID-19 has taught us anything, it is the importance of having accessible, safe and quality care in communities that need it most. Michael Jordan’s commitment to improving the health of our communities, and society, is deep-rooted,” Carl Armato, CEO and president of Novant Health, said in a statement.
In a year of uncertainty, our mission to improve the health of our communities remains steady. We’ve tested over 13,500 people for #COVID19 at the Novant Health Michael Jordan Family Medical Clinic and we’re proud to announce the opening of second clinic in north Charlotte. pic.twitter.com/IceaChvmcM
