Marshawn Lynch retired from the NFL but he’s still about that action, helping out the less fortunate. Beastmode joined former teammate Cliff Avril to help improve conditions for the children in Haiti.
Avril, whose parents came to America from Haiti in the 1980s, was joined by Marshawn Lynch, Detroit Lions linebacker Stephen Tulloch and Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive tackle Godser Cherilus to build school in Haiti.
“It’s awesome to have their support, it’s awesome to be in a situation where guys are willing to take that step with you,” Avril told the Seahawks’ web site. “Marshawn wants to help actually build the school out there. There’s a lot of good guys in the NFL … . It’s cool to have these guys’ support.”
In addition to building the school, Avril and the players were scheduled to host a mobile medical clinic and a youth football camp.

And more on the Seahawks website.
Lynch didn’t just give his money, he was literally out there helping to build the school, in Jordans (hear the cries of sneakerheads).
And if anyone wants to question Lynch’s genuineness…
He was out there all day and didn’t like the fact we were taking pictures and recording the work. https://t.co/GT4hTuPipY
