CHARLIE HORN

On November 1, 2007, Charlie Horn, a 2-year-old, was killed when he attempted to climb a 30″ dresser in his home.

​

It was through this tragedy that Charlie’s House was born.

What started as a memorial and an outpouring of public support has grown into a 501 (c)(3) not for profit organization with safety at its core – dedicated to keeping the community informed and engaged when it comes to preventing injuries to children in and around the home.

​

As part of this mission, Charlie’s House participates in and sponsors community-wide events to provide home safety information. Construction on Charlie’s Safety House is underway. This safety demonstration house will provide adults with real-life demonstrations, examples and resources on children’s safety.
