Turning Point USA is seeing a flurry of job applications in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s death, as supporters look to carry on his mission.
Andrew Kolvet, executive producer of "The Charlie Kirk Show," said interest in joining the organization has surged.
"I have personally received hundreds of offers to work for us, or to work for free, or to just help, however," he told Fox News Digital.
Kolvet, who is also a spokesman for Turning Point USA, said the organization has received more than 37,000 inquiries from people wanting to start new campus chapters. Kolvet said that TPUSA currently has 900 official college chapters and approximately 1,200 high school chapters.

"Charlie's vision to have a Club America chapter (our high school brand) in every high school in America (around 23,000) will come true much, much faster than he could have ever possibly imagined," Kolvet wrote on X on Sunday, calling the response to expand Kirk's mission "truly incredible."
In a separate post, he wrote, "This is the Turning Point."
SLEEPING GIANT’ LIKELY WOKE UP FOR TURNING POINT USA AFTER CHARLIE KIRK’S ASSASSINATION
Kirk was assassinated Wednesday during an outdoor event at Utah Valley University. The gathering was the first stop on TPUSA’s planned "American Comeback Tour," and, at first, nothing seemed out of the ordinary.
The charismatic founder of TPUSA gained recognition for his signature political debates on college campuses. Before the shot that killed him, Kirk sat under a white tent marked with the slogan "Prove Me Wrong," fielding open-mic questions from thousands.

The energetic movement Kirk built, which reshaped conservative youth politics, now falls to others to carry forward. On Friday evening, his widow, Erika, made clear in her first public remarks that she intends to lead that effort.
"To everyone listening tonight across America, the movement my husband built will not die," Erika Kirk said.
"I refuse to let that happen. No one will ever forget my husband's name. And I will make sure of it. It will become stronger. Bolder. Louder and greater than ever," she added.

She also said that TPUSA's annual "AmericaFest" conference in Phoenix this December will continue as scheduled.
Kirk’s celebration of life ceremony is scheduled for next Sunday at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona.
