About the KID Best Friend Award

Each year, KID commemorates our progress, honors the memory of Danny Keysar and other victims of unsafe children’s products and highlights the contributions of someone who has helped keep children safe — our Best Friend.

The KID Best Friend Award Night brings together community leaders, national safety advocates, families and KID supporters to honor an outstanding leader in the field of children’s product safety. The funds raised at this event allow us to continue our valuable outreach and provide a strong voice for safety.

As part of the event there will be a live and silent auction along with a raffle drawing. We have a wide variety of prizes up for grabs ranging from Bulls tickets to restaurant gift cards. This year we are especially excited to announce our Dream Raffle! By purchasing a Dream Raffle ticket you are entered to win a dream vacation to either the Dominican Republic, Sonoma, California, or New Orleans! The winner need not be present to win. Click here to purchase raffle tickets now!
