Making a Difference Together

You might not recognize his name, but I'll bet you recognize his work. The events Charlie Gay has organized have been enjoyed by millions. After beginning his career at age 22, Charlie began organizing events for Margaret Thatcher at age 24 and later promoted some of the biggest names in music including Luciano Pavarotti, Pink Floyd, Duran Duran, Fleetwood Mac, and Phil Collins.

In 1991, Charlie Gay came to the United States to join Cher's personal management team. Since then he has organized events for the Rose Bowl, Cotton Bowl, Candlestick Park, and the Washington, D.C. Mall. Charlie also co-founded Promenade Pictures with Frank Yablans, who is the founder of Buena Vista and the head of Paramount Pictures.

With all of the work and travel in his life, you'd think Charlie had no time for changing the world. You'd be wrong. Charlie Gay's real joy is in his work with Humanity Unites Brilliance, or HUB. HUB is a for-profit organization striving to bring people out of mere survival and into self-empowerment and sustained abundance.

Both his successes and failures have always been driven by Charlie Gay's enthusiasm and passion. Zeal has led people to the pinnacle of success, but it has also gotten people into a lot of trouble. Charlie is no different, but his successes in life have greatly surpassed his failures. Two of his recent successes include his work with Nelson Mandela's Mineseeker Foundation and his commitment to organize Billy Graham's final crusade.

Charlie Gay has always been passionate about bringing people together whether through charity or music. He believes everyone has a desire for doing something great, but most people stop with desire. They don't know how to act upon it. That's what makes HUB so great. People with common goals can come together uniting their individual strengths.

An example of this uniting can be found in Mozambique. Storms had forced people into massive refugee camps. Non-profit organizations were low on money and resources, and even the United Nations World Food Program was 70% short on funding. Charlie spoke to Heidi Baker about the situation because she had been a primary care-giver in the country for over 20 years.

Heidi knew she couldn't feed all these people without help, so Charlie jumped at the chance to help. With help from Larry Jones of the non-profit Feed the Children organization, Charlie was able to acquire over $2 million worth of meals through the for-profit company Nourish the Children. The meals came from a factory in China.

To help others, we must first look at ourselves. What are your talents? What are your strengths? As the saying goes, "Give a man a fish, and he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to fish, and he'll never go hungry." Throwing money at a cause isn't the answer. Dig deep within yourself and unite with others to make great changes in your community and the world.
