Like so many other residents of the tri-state area, former Drew University men?s lacrosse team captain, PJ Martin C?04, saw some of the devastating effects of Super Storm Sandy first hand and looked to his former team for help.
Martin, a former teacher and coach at the Peddie School in Hightstown, N.J. located miles from the some hardest impacted areas of the storm, reached out to former Peddie School graduate and current Drew junior, Kyle Mariboe to see if the current team would be interested in helping out.
Head Coach Tom Leanos, who also coached Martin, was approached by Mariboe to see if he can enlist his teammates to join the relief effort. Within days Martin and Mariboe had a small army comprised of 31 Drew men?s lacrosse players and two coaches including Leanos to help with the clean-up.
?This Drew lacrosse program is a family,? explained Leanos. ?If one of our family members needs assistance, we?re going to figure out a way we can help out.?
The Ranger contingent helped clean-up, assist in demolition, remove furniture and drywall for about 10 homes in a flood zone located about one block of the Raritan Bay. The team divided into six groups with each group working under the direction of a previously existing group called, Team Pecyna, which stepped up and taken responsibility for civilian relief in Keansburg.
Martin now owns his own lifestyle apparel company called Uncommon Fit based in Hightstown and is spearheading a relief campaign called ?We Shore Will?. His apparel company and the campaign have been able to motivate different college age volunteers and young professionals to come down to help in Keansburg and have raised thousands of dollars that are directly benefiting organizations, residents and small business in the Raritan Bay area.The most notable effort in raising funds was at the recent Hope for Highlands concert helping raise an extra $5500 through t-shirt sales by his company.
?This was a life-changing experience for us and hopefully for the people down here as well,? said junior Mark Barus. ?I?m grateful we were made aware of this opportunity by PJ and glad we could help out.?
Although each Drew student-athlete was affected by Super Storm Sandy, the relief effort brought heightened awareness to all involved of how dramatic the hardship was for other communities and families in the Garden State. It also brought a true sense of what the Drew Lacrosse family is all about to the current-student athletes and alumnus PJ Martin.
Other individuals or organizations interested in volunteering in Keansburg may do so by emailing Shawn at Keansburgstrong@gmail.com for information. To see how and when other Drew University relief efforts are being made, join the facebook group ?Drew Disaster Relief?.
You can also purchase apparel from Uncommon Fit that directly benefitx the Keansburg community by visiting www.uncommonfit.com

A man's quest to overcome his fear of rejection by making at least one crazy request a day for 100 days was throttled last week when a Krispy Kreme employee accepted his order for five doughnuts linked together in the colors and shape of the Olympic symbol.
"It's only my third day and I have already failed," Jia Jiang wrote on his 100 Days of Rejection Therapy blog. "But I did so with such amazement and happiness."
When the 31-year-old approached the register to make his "specialized" doughnut order, Jackie Braun, a shift leader at an Austin, Texas, Krispy Kreme, asked him when he would need it.
"In the next 15 minutes," Jiang replied.
"I was honestly just hoping for a 'no' and to go home," Jiang told Yahoo News in an interview on Monday.
(Krispy Kreme)
Instead, Braun spent several minutes using the back of some receipt paper to diagram the unusual order.
"Let me see what I can do," she said.
Fifteen minutes later, she emerged with a Krispy Kreme box with the glazed Olympic ring arrangement inside?and, astonishingly, did not charge Jiang for it.
"It wasn't exactly what he wanted," Braun told Yahoo News. "To my eyes, it wasn't perfect, so I didn't think I should charge him for it. It was the best I could do in the time allotted."
"Wow, Jackie, I'm a fan," Jiang told her, on behalf of everyone in America.
"I was overwhelmed, I couldn't believe it," Jiang said. "I went home and tweeted to Krispy Kreme and blogged about it. I wanted the world to know about what she did."
A campaign to get Braun a raise and promotion was quickly launched in the YouTube comments section underneath Jiang's video.
"Jackie is awesome," more than one viewer wrote. "The world needs more people like her."
"Yo, if Krispy Kreme doesn't promote her to CEO I'm boycotting!" wrote another. "And I love doughnuts."
Jiang, who launched a Facebook page called "Give Jackie at Krispy Kreme a Raise," said he returned to Krispy Kreme on Sunday to thank Braun for going above and beyond the call of doughnut duty.
Braun, though, said she didn't do anything out of the ordinary.
"It was a simple thing," Braun, who's been with Krispy Kreme for five years, said. "The Olympic symbol was the only unusual part, because they're not on TV right now. But we do orders like that every day. We're here to make people happy."

By Ewan Gaffney: YBI Communications Manager
?
As well as hosting? Global Entrepreneurship Week (GEW) in the UK? from our network team HQ in London, Youth Business International lives? up to its name during the week, with our? members around the world hosting the campaign in a further 10 countries.
From Bhutan to Barbados, GEW is a natural fit for YBI programmes which are used to supporting and promoting entrepreneurship throughout the year. In 2012 there was a huge variety of GEW activity ?going on right around the world. Not to mention our ?Around the world, around the clock? campaign which highlighted the fact? that at any given moment of the day, somewhere a? YBI entrepreneur is hard at work building and growing their business.
Aside from all this, there was one campaign that really caught our attention this year. That was the inaugural Global Entrepreneurship Week in the Kingdom of Bhutan.
I was lucky enough to visit Bhutan, and the YBI member there, earlier this year. I wrote about my trip on this blog. YBI is represented in the country by the Loden Entrepreneurship Programme (LEP), and it was during an accreditation visit that I introduced them to GEW, and suggested that they might be interested in becoming the local host organisation. With GEW activity in 125 countries and counting, there are less and less nations without a host, so taking this responsibly is a great way for LEP to make even deeper connections? with the global entrepreneurship community.
With some encouragement from YBI, LEP set about organising its first week of GEW events in early 2012.
Having seen the excellent work that LEP does to support young entrepreneurs on the ground in Bhutan, I was concerned that the responsibility of hosting the campaign should not detract from their main goal of providing close and on-going support to entrepreneurs.? LEP has approved 12 businesses for funding from a group of over 80 this year. These businesses will all receive an interest free loan and on-going mentoring.?With all this work going on, my suggestion to my colleagues in Bhutan was to start small, get a feel for the GEW campaign and expand the portfolio of events gradually.
The launch of Global Entrepreneurship Week in Bhutan took place in the historic Clock Tower Square
I?needn?t?have worried. Last week my colleague Dorji emailed me over the itinerary for the week. In typical Bhutanese fashion,?LEP have excelled themselves with the minimum of fuss.? The first ever GEW in Bhutan included:? TV and radio coverage, a speech from a government minister and the attendance of a member of the Royal Family. There are lots of well-established GEW campaigns around the world that would love to achieve that level of exposure.
LEP activities included a series of training sessions and seminars that focused on practical topics like accounting, social entrepreneurship and entrepreneurship in the context of the national measurement of Gross National Happiness (GNH), the Bhutanese equivalent of GDP.
The centrepiece of the week was an entrepreneurship fair, held in the central Clock Tower Square. The campaign and the fair were officially opened here by HRH Ashi Deki Yangzom Wangchuk, who addressed the audience about the importance of developing an entrepreneurial mind-set within Bhutanese society amd within the framework of?Buddhist teachings?; something the LEP is taking a leading role in doing. ??
?As Buddhists and responsible human beings, it is also important we work hard not just out of greed to amass wealth and derive profit but to be productive citizens so that you can help both yourself and the people around you.? Her excellent speech is worth reading in its?entirety.
The guest of honour HRH Ashi Deki Yangzom Wangchuk addresses guests at the launch of GEW in Bhutan
The gathering, set under a traditional tented covering and framed by the majestic backdrop of Bhutanese mountains, was also addressed by Dr Karma Phuntso, one of the founders of LEP. Dr Karma spoke of how important it was for Bhutan to ?develop and promote a new and vibrant culture of entrepreneurship and enterprise? and his pride at being able to ?join some 125 countries around the world to celebrate and promote the culture of innovation and enterprise, intelligence and integrity.?
Despite the high profile launch event, the highlight of the week must have been be the formal presentation of certificates to the 12 entrepreneurs whose business plans had proven robust enough to be awarded funding by the LEP.
The 12 business, from sectors including farming, baking and agriculture, were chosen by a panel of experts and will go on to receive an interest free loan, training, mentoring and on-going support from the expert team at Loden. For them this is the beginning of an exciting journey into the world of entrepreneurship.
Speaking about the triple pronged support Loden and other YBI members offer, Director of the Foundation Gerard Tardy said, ?So this is the type of help we try to give. We don?t think that a loan in a way is most important. What we try to do is provide a lot more help, in terms of training, appointing mentors. So for each project there is one local mentor and one international mentor.?
Here?s to a bright future for Global Entrepreneurship Week, and entrepreneurship in general,? in the Kingdom of the Thunder Dragon.
You can see the full list of GEW activities on the?Loden website.
