Cheering for Charlie

Not everyone has the privilege to run.
And walking is never “less than.”

For some, every single step is fought for. Earned. Celebrated.

This video? Charlie’s first steps.
Steps that took YEARS of therapy, determination, and resilience.

So when we see messages that suggest walking is something to be “tolerated”… we have to speak up.

Because for so many in the CP community, walking is everything.
And we will celebrate every WALK, run, roll, or stroll that Charlie takes part in.

— we know your message was likely meant to inspire, but we hope you’ll consider the impact of words like these. Inclusion matters.

Do better.
Be better. 💚

Tomorrow is the big day! 💚Our raffle table is FULL of incredible baskets, gift cards, and fun items donated by so many generous supporters.

Grab some tickets, take a chance on your favorites, and help support Cheering for Charlie. Every ticket helps us continue making a difference for families impacted by cerebral palsy. 💚

We can’t wait to see you there!

Do you know a teenager who needs service hours—or a young adult who’d love to spend time with some awesome kids?

We’re looking for a few volunteers to hang out with our guests’ children during our event so parents can focus on helping us raise funds for Cheering for Charlie. All parents will remain onsite, and activities will be provided.

Please share with anyone who might be interested! 💚
