About the Cameron Carico +10 Foundation
Cameron Carico was a special young man who touched everyone he knew with his infectious smile. He loved his family and friends, and wanted to see them healthy and happy. Cameron desired to do whatever he could for those he cared about. He had a strong faith in God, and reached out to others to share that joy with them.
On January 28, 2012 Cameron died by suicide and we knew that we wanted to help others just like Cameron. Cameron was exceptionally close to his family, and in his memory his cousins created the Cameron Carico +10 Foundation. Our goal is to embody Cameron's spirit and smile by helping others, as he so often did. Our focus is on suicide prevention and mental health awareness.
What's a +10 you ask? It's a way to give a compliment or praise to another, and was a common phrase in Cameron and his cousins' lexicon. A clutch golf shot, a funny joke, or a helping hand may all warrant a +10. When deciding on a name for our organization, we chose +10 because of the fond memories we shared with Cameron, and the positive message the phrase represents.
As of September 30, 2013 the Foundation is now a 501(c)(3) organization.
