Celebration of Life 2019 Blood Drive with Kidd's Kids!

Celebration of Life with Kidd’s Kids

By Carter BloodCare | 2 comments | Blood Drive, General, Uncategorized | 8 August, 2019

A big Texas-sized THANKS Y’ALL to the donors and partners that came out to give with

the Kidd Kraddick Foundation!

Check out what Irving Community Television Network had to say about this community event.

 

Celebrate the life and legacy of Kidd Kraddick by giving life to your community with a Carter BloodCare blood drive on Thursday, August 22, from 6AM – 2PM in the Toyota Music Factory at Texas Lottery® Plaza. This event will benefit our community’s blood supply while increasing awareness for Kidd’s Kids Day on August 28. Tune into the Kidd Kraddick Morning Show to hear the stories of families whose children depend on blood donations for life-saving treatments and have experienced the lifetime memories on a Kidd’s Kids trip to Disney World.

Kids who come out to the blood drive can get a box of *Girl Scout cookies, play games on the Texas Lottery Plaza lawn and chill in the Kidd’s Kids photo booth. Adults will even get a treat from Nue Vodka! There will be special appearances by Kellie Rasberry and J-Si Chavez of the Kidd Kraddick Morning Show and the iHeart promo crew, along with music, food and giveaways from some awesome people: Freshii, Boi Na Braza, Kabuki, Yard House, Nosh & Bottle and Gloria’s!
