In early August, a massive mudslide near Freetown, the capital city of Sierra Leone in West Africa, devastated the region, claimed hundreds of lives and displaced more than 20,000 people. United goalkeeper Bill Hamid, whose parents emigrated from Sierra Leone to the U.S. and has extended family still living in the area, is working with D.C. United and Schools for Salone to help those in dire need.

Hamid is auctioning off game-worn, autographed jerseys and will match dollar-for-dollar all funds raised through the auction (up to $2,000).
