Kraig Kenning Fundraiser

Emilʼs of Grayslake, 161 Center St, Grayslake, IL

Join us for an afternoon of great acoustic music for a great cause! Music will be provided by the Libertyville/Grayslake band the Mojo Daddies (Mike Dikelsky, Craig James, Rob Twardock), Doug Anderson, and more of Kraigʼs musical friends.

On June 2nd 2024, friends of Kraig Kenning will present an afternoon of music in order to raise money to help with Kraigʼs medical expenses. For the last 30 years his sole source of income has been entertaining fans with his guitar, his voice, and his personality in the Chicago suburbs and beyond. Most of the material he performs is entirely original. Recently he has run into a serious medical issue. He has stopped performing to concentrate 100% on healing. Without any income, we are hoping to raise funds to help with his medical expenses. Any proceeds from the fundraiser will go directly to his gofundme campaign.

Please consider contributing to his Gofundme https://gofund.me/3ede3a63 and sharing this campaign with others.

Kraig is a full-time, touring musician. After 30 years on the road, Kraig has had to put a halt on performing in order to concentrate 100% on healing. Without his livelihood, the cost of healthcare and living expenses face Kraig with huge financial strain. We are asking for your support.
 
For the past 2 years, Kraig has been struggling with chronic hoarseness and sore throat. In the last 10 months, this has developed into a much more serious condition involving muscles in the face and throat causing issues with speech and swallowing. Several neurologists have told us the symptoms point to ALS (bulbar onset Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis). We are looking into every curable solution for Kraig’s condition.
