It's a non-profit organization located in Manasquan that helps kids, teens, and families grieve and deal with the loss of a family member.

I found out about his place because one of the bartenders at the Anchor Inn mentioned he was a volunteer there, and after he told me about their annual clambake to raise funds for the year, I had to write about it.

Common Ground Relief Center is a 501(c)3, and runs completely off donations, so that's why the Grief Center's clambake is such a big deal each year.
