Michael Jordan Donates $2M from 'The Last Dance' to Feeding America

The documentary miniseries The Last Dance showcased Michael Jordan's legendary career with Chicago Bulls, and ended up being one of the most popular television events of 2020, resulting in a large profit.

Now, in the spirit of the holiday season, the Charlotte Hornets owner is donating a portion of the proceeds to help those in need across the country.

Feeding America, a nonprofit organization of over 200 food banks that feeds more than 46 million people, thanked Jordan on Wednesday for his $2 million donation.

In a statement attached to the organization's tweet, Jordan reflected on the hardships many people faced during this difficult year given the social unrest and global coronavirus pandemic.
