Curtis Martin Signs Autographs at Kennedy for Sandy Relief

Former New York Jet and NFL Hall of Famer donates time, money to a good cause.

NFL Hall of Famer Curtis Martin came to John F. Kennedy High School Monday to sign autographs to raise money for Hurricane Sandy victims in Bellmore-Merrick.

Invited by ESPN Insider and Kennedy Graduate Adam Schefter, Martin donated $10,000 of his own money to get the fundraising started. New York Jets' Owner Woody Johnson followed suit by donating $5,000 as well.
