Attorneys & Counselors at Law 1-866-WAS-HURT (866) 927-4878 718.738.9800 star OF queens SCOTT BARON’S STAR OF QUEENS MARTIN COLBERG PRESIDENT WOODHAVEN RESIDENTS’ BLOCK ASSOCIATION COMMUNITY SERVICE: Martin Colberg is the president of the Woodhaven Residents’ Block Association (WRBA), a civic association that addresses problems in the community of Woodhaven. BACKGROUND: Colberg grew up in the Woodhaven and Richmond Hill areas, and has been in Woodhaven for the past 10 years. Four years ago, Colberg attended his fi rst WRBA meeting, and found the ideas of the association very interesting, saying “I was excited to put some more time and effort into my community.” GOALS: Colberg has recently been named the new president of the Woodhaven Residents’ Block Association, and is also the fi rst Latino president, since the start of the association, 42 years ago. Colberg believes this to be a great representation of the growth and diversity in the neighborhood. According to Colberg, his goal in the coming year will be to continue to get others involved in helping their community. “I defi nitely want to concentrate on outreach, among other things in the coming year, just to get more numbers in our membership,” he said. Colberg wants to concentrate on getting the younger generation involved in their community, hoping he can partner with schools or create a program, so that the younger generation can realize that they are needed and they can get involved in their community. BEST MEMORY: One of Colberg’s best memories was watching his community come together to help those in need after Superstorm Sandy. “It was such an eye-opening experience to watch so many members of the community put so much money, time and effort into helping those in need,” he said. Colberg recalled keeping the offi ce open for a full week, as a drop-off station, and watching people come multiple times to give their time or make donations of clothes, food or money. “I remember people getting to their last quarter tank of gas and still making one more trip to the Rockaways to help out.” INSPIRATION: Colberg’s drive is just seeing others in his neighborhood get involved, saying, “in the fast-paced world that we are in, not a lot of people have that extra time to put into helping their community, but when they do show up, I feel like I have to help out as well.” BIGGEST CHALLENGE: As the new president of the WRBA, his biggest challenge is yet to come. Looking forward, he feels his challenge would just be to gain more exposure and get more people involved, which he believes he can accomplish by the end of the year.
