Jason Mraz was presented with the Music for Life award by the National Association of Music Merchants, or NAMM, Thursday morning at the organization’s annual Show.
It’s NAMM’s highest honor, given to Jason to recognize his musical accomplishments, as well as his efforts to bring the arts to young people through his own Jason Mraz Foundation, as well as other organizations nationwide.
“I was fortunate to have music education in my public school and that’s why I advocate so hard for it,” Jason said. “Knowing how much shaped my life and gave me so many opportunities, I knew my career would include giving back.”
