A Charlie Kirk memorial rally is scheduled for Wednesday at the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa. According to organizers, the event is being held not only to remember the late Turning Point USA founder but also to inspire the next generation of conservatives.

Republican National Committee Youth Advisory Council co-chair CJ Pearson will host the event. Also on hand for the rally as special guests will be social influencer Savannah Chrisley and country music singer Alexis Wilkins. An advertisement said that additional special guests will be announced.

The rally is scheduled for September 17 from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. at Two Dimes Bama, located at 1307 University Boulevard. It will be free for students and $15 for adults.

All funds raised will benefit Charlie's wife, Erika, and their children directly.
