Lions safety Kerby Joseph had a special weekend last weekend in his hometown of Orlando, Florida. Joseph now has his own health clinic named the Kerby B. Joseph Center, which opened Friday, June 20.
“I feel like the best thing is to help everybody else’s mom because I have the ability to do that,” Joseph told ClickOrlando.com. “I love to give back to the community. I’ve got a couple of friends, and their mom is in the same boat. Just taking care of people and making sure the community is good is the main reason why I opened the clinic.”
Joseph was inspired to give back after watching his mother suffer a stroke.
During the ceremony, Joseph also received the keys to the city of Orlando.
“A key to the city is pretty lit,” Joseph told Spectrum News (via Pride of Detroit). “This is a blessing, man. I just keep smiling and keep laughing because I’m really joyful and thankful.”
Joseph found the article from Pride of Detroit and was very pleased to see some positive news, to which he then recapped his recent accomplishments.
