CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The 10-story banner in downtown Cleveland featuring LeBron James isn't going anywhere.

Sherwin-Williams announced on Tuesday that the banner, which was scheduled to come down on July 5, will stay up through the Republican National Convention.

The company planned to replace it with a "This Land is Our Land" banner for about three months to spotlight its 150th anniversary and to welcome visitors to Cleveland for the RNC.

After James led the Cleveland Cavaliers to the NBA Championship, thousands of fans took to social media and online petitions, to request the company keep the banner up during the RNC.

In a news release sent out early Tuesday morning, the company said in addition to keeping the banner up on its headquarters, it will donate $150,000 to the LeBron James Family Foundation as part of its 150th anniversary.

“For 150 years, Sherwin-Williams has been proud to call Cleveland our home, and we’re committed to doing the right thing for the people of this great city,” said John Morikis, President and CEO, The Sherwin-Williams Company in the news release. “For the last year, we’ve been planning to hang a celebratory banner outside our building during the summer months. But what better way to celebrate our 150th year than with a NBA championship. As a long-time supporter of the Cavs, and the entire community, we want the energy and excitement in this city to continue.”
