Turning Point USA will hold the “Freedom Built to Last Memorial” on September 10, 2026, at the UCCU Center on the campus of Utah Valley University (UVU), marking one year since the assassination of Charlie Kirk.
The gathering will honor Charlie as a faith-filled husband, father, and defender of free speech with a memorial that serves as a deliberate act of remembrance and a call for students and supporters to continue his life’s work.
The event will punctuate a week of commemoration. Simultaneously, TPUSA Faith is leading a nationwide initiative inviting Christians of every denomination and tradition to honor Charlie’s mission to make Heaven crowded by inviting a friend or family member to church beginning Sunday, September 13, and throughout the month of September.
Americans from every corner of the country are welcome to share the moment on social media with a simple message: Charlie’s seat continues to be filled by a new generation of faith-filled believers.
