Biyombo Continues Giving Back to DRC in Spite of Pandemic Restrictions
Bismack Biyombo usually spends his offseasons traveling back home to his native Democratic Republic of Congo to assist in a variety of different humanitarian efforts. This summer though, the pandemic prevented Biyombo from making his annual trip, but that didn’t stop the recently re-signed Hornets veteran from helping out again in another big way.
“We were able to refurbish four [medical] clinics and hospitals,” Biyombo explained. “We were able to donate a lot of medical supplies to local communities and clinics. That really was the biggest thing we got done this summer because we couldn’t touch much on sports with the health situation that we are dealing with.
