Local Support in Maine
In the early 1990s he created the Northeast Regional Marketing Center in Camden, Maine. It was representative of the marketing centers,[clarification needed] and it also marked a tie to Cawley's past: his grandfather had once operated dress factories in Camden and nearby Belfast, and Cawley was familiar with the area because he had spent summers nearby[2] at his family's Lincolnville Beach estate. Mr. Cawley was inducted into the Junior Achievement U.S. Business Hall of Fame in 2005. Charles Cawley supported the youth and the building of the youth center in Camden Maine. Charles Cawley worked with long time stained glass artist Brian Gebo and supported an art contest at the youth center and the winner was selected from the youths drawings and a stained glass window was made for the youth center as a result.

Cawley currently resides in Camden.
