Charlie Gay's name might not be familiar, but his events certainly are. After starting his career at age 22, Charlie began organizing events for Margaret Thatcher when he was only 24. It didn't take long before he started promoting events for some of the biggest names in music, including Luciano Pavarotti, Pink Floyd, Duran Duran, Fleetwood Mac, and Phil Collins.

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

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.

Charlie Gay has always been driven by enthusiasm and passion, two traits that have brought him both success and failure. Luckily, Charlie's successes have outnumbered his failures. In fact, some of his other successes include his work with Nelson Mandela's Mineseeker Foundation and his organization efforts for Billy Graham's final crusade.

Charlie Gay has always had a passion for uniting people, whether it was through music or through charitable organizations. He believes people all over the world have a desire to do something great, but they don't know how to start or where to send their money. That's where HUB comes in. It unites people who have a common goal so that the goal can be reached.

Mozambique is a great point of example. Massive flooding recently forced people from their homes into large refugee camps. Non-profit aids were out of money and resources, and even the United Nations World Food Program was unable to help. Charlie spoke to Heidi Baker about the situation to find out what needed to be done. Heidi had been a primary care-giver in Mozambique for over 20 years.

Because Heidi felt she was not able to deal with the hunger problem herself, Charlie contacted Larry Jones of the non-profit Feed the Children organization. They in turn contacted the for-profit company Nourish the Children, and in doing so, they were able to deliver $2 million worth of meals to the starving refugees in Mozambique via 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.
