This year’s golf tournament benefits:
Over 15 years ago, a story on the news lead nationally syndicated morning show personality Kidd Kraddick to start Kidd’s Kids. On TV, a woman was being interviewed about her car being stolen, but more importantly her 7-year-old daughter’s wheelchair, who suffered from cerebral palsy. The next morning, Kidd shared the story with his on-air audience, and raised enough money to replace the wheelchair for the family. From this and personal experiences, Kidd’s dream became to gather families together going through the enormous struggle of having a child with special medical needs and treat them to a fantasy-filled vacation. The organization covers all expenses including special souvenirs. Children selected for the Kidd’s Kids trip are between the ages of 5 and 12, suffer from a chronic or terminal illness, and/or are physically challenged or have a catastrophic impairment due to an accident/birth defect. Additionally, the family must demonstrate a financial need. Each child selected attends the trip along with their family members. It’s the goal of Kidd’s Kids to make this a trip of a lifetime!
