Caruso Family Charities

Established in 2006

Caruso Family Charities is a 501(c)3 Organization dedicated to supporting various family and children’s charities in Colorado. The proceeds from Caruso Family Charities events directly benefit families that have children living with cancer. These families are in need of financial assistance due to the significant cost of medical treatment.

In 2009, Caruso Family Charities donated $50,000 to Children’s Hospital Colorado to financially assist families that have children living with cancer.
