"All of us at Cane's are proud to support the Kidd's Kids program, which has been doing amazing things for these brave children and their families for many years," said Graves. "Over the last six years, we have raised over half a million dollars for Kidd's Kids. We are big fans of The Kidd Kraddick Morning Show and we honored to help them continue Kidd Kraddick's legacy of good work."

Founded in 1991, the Kraddick Foundation and Kidd's Kids program were developed on the premise of making a difference in the lives of children with life-altering illnesses and special medical needs.

KIDD'S KIDS TRIP

  • November 15 through November 19
  • Kidd’s Kids and their families go on Walt Disney World getaway

For many families, the Kidd's Kids trip to Disney is a rare opportunity to escape hospitals and treatment centers and share laughter and fun in a magical environment.

"Todd and his incredible team at Raising Cane's are some of the most generous people I have ever met," said Caroline Kraddick, daughter of legendary radio personality Kidd Kraddick, who now serves as CEO and Chief Happiness Officer of her late father's foundation. "A large source of our funding for this trip comes from the outpouring of support we receive from our listeners and corporate sponsors like Raising Cane's. We couldn't be more grateful for their support and on-going partnership."
