Charlie’s Corner is a foundation we created to honor our son, Charlie Cavanagh, and help carry on his legacy.
The mission of this charity is to create fun events that bring family, friends and the community together while supporting great causes.
Charlie Cavanagh was born on his big brother, Keegan’s birthday, April 29th, 2016. He was born a healthy boy with a full head of hair leading to many jokes at his dad’s expense. After coming home, Charlie developed a fever and was taken to the hospital. After several days and being transferred to Lurie Children’s Hospital, we learned that Charlie had contracted Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1. He fought with so much courage for two weeks, but the virus was just too much for him to overcome.
Charlie taught us that no matter how little you are or how short your time is on this earth, you can make an enormous impact.
It brings us great joy to be able to host fun events that bring family, friends and the community together while supporting an important cause.
Thank you to everyone who continues to participate and show their support to help spread and carry on Charlie’s legacy.
Love,
Brendan, Sarah, Keegan & Erin
