Please feel free to donate anything you can in Ellen's honor to CAUSE, an organization which Ellen supported in her community advocacy efforts. CAUSE's mission is to build grassroots power to invoke social, economic and environmental justice for the people of California's Central Coast Region through policy research, leadership development, organizing, and advocacy. CAUSE defines the Central Coast Region as the counties of Ventura, Santa Barbara, San Luis Obispo, Santa Cruz, Moneterey and San Benito. CAUSE's vision is that together we can create a global community where we all contribute to, and benefit from, a sustainable economy that is just, prosperous and environmentally healthy. (Stay tuned as we are in the process of setting up a scholarship fund in honor of Ellen and all the wonderful kids she has loved and taught through the years.)
