Sammy Linebaugh visits the hometown of RSL Midfielder Jean Alexandre. He grew up on the streets of Verrettes, Haiti until he was 10 years old, when his family sought asylum in the United States. Fast-forward, and he would become RSL's #1 draft pick in 2008. But even before he was drafted, he's been giving back to his hometown by starting a youth soccer school. His dream is to see other Haitian kids have the opportunities to live their soccer dream as he has. As most kids don't have a pair of shoes, the Utah community donated more than one-thousand pairs of cleats and athletic shoes to the kids in Alexandre's hometown.
