Reminding children they are loved &
not forgotten on their grief journey.
Mission
Charlie's Guys is organized for children 17 years and younger across the United States who have lost a sibling or parent.
Our mission is to provide bereaved children with a special gift or experience and use the power of play to help those grieving feel hopeful throughout their grief journey.
​
Charlie's Guys is a one-time gift-giving organization. If you have not already received a gift from us, you are eligible to apply. We do this to have enough resources to gift to each new family as they apply.
Where we have served so far in yellow
1 in 12 children will grieve a loss
According to our Childhood Bereavement Estimation Model (CBEM), an estimated 6 million U.S. children will experience the death of a parent or sibling by age 18. Childhood bereavement is a critical public issue that can profoundly impact individuals and communities.
