Join us in remembering his faith, courage, and service to America.

Dear Friend,

Today would have been Charlie Kirk’s 32nd birthday.

We remember him not only as a beloved husband and father, but as a courageous defender of America’s Founding and the promise it holds today. A man of faith, intellect, and most of all action, Charlie dedicated his life to calling on his countrymen to recover the truths that make liberty possible.

Charlie was a Lincoln Fellow and a passionate supporter of The Claremont Institute. When he joined our fellowship in 2021, he was already one of the most recognized figures in American politics, yet he showed up eager to learn. His humility, curiosity, and zeal for the Founding made him a model participant and a true friend to all who shared his love of country.

This afternoon, our nation will formally and rightfully honor Charlie’s life and service as President Donald J. Trump posthumously awards him the Presidential Medal of Freedom, America’s highest civilian honor. His wife, Erika Kirk, will receive the award on his behalf.

We invite you to join us in remembering Charlie and witnessing this fitting tribute to his life and work. The ceremony will be livestreamed at 4:00 p.m. ET on Turning Point USA's channels:

Charlie’s mission was the renewal of Western civilization, a project he undertook with optimism, courage, and love. May we continue that work with the same resolve, and may his example strengthen us in the task ahead.

Sincerely,

Ryan P. Williams

President
