Be the Cause

14 year old Chaz

Jay and I are extremely lucky; as the receiving end of info@bethecause.org our email inboxes are always filled with inspiring messages from all over  the world, like this one from 14 year old Chaz.  Thank you for sharing this with us, Chaz!  Keep on doing what you’re doing

Hi, my name is Chaz…I’m 14 years old and I wrote and recorded a song called (R)evolve. I really believe that this song and its video could help change the world, and I feel it is a common goal between us. I would really love it if you checked it out, because your cause fits with the message of what we are trying to get out there. So, here’s a link to my YouTube video…

I hope you like it. :)  Please feel free to let me know your thoughts and or share with others if you like it.
Thanks a bunch–Chaz

Of course its an honor to be selected as a receipient of this award.  But, more so than it highlighting the efforts of one person, I believe that the award really highlights the efforts of the entire Be the Cause community.  The volunteers that participate in our many projects quietly and at many times without recognition slowly shape the well-being of our community.  It is easy to pin my face as the poster child of these efforts because maybe I helped start it all, but in reality, these days, its the silent and yet dedicated force of all the countless volunteers that makes the benefit to the community really happen.

The Orange County Human Relations has been doing amazing work for decades to bring people together.  To be recognized as part of their heritage is a true honor.
