Bubel Aiken Foundation is Goodsearch's Charity of the Day
Many of you know that Goodsearch is a site online where for every search you make, the charity of your choice earns a penny for every search made. In our case, that would be The Bubel Aiken Foundation. For the month of March, those searches have made $263.46 for BAF. That would convert to 26,346 searches in one month!
At Goodsearch today, The Bubel Aiken Foundation was listed on their home page as "Whose Doing Good" along with a link to their "Whose Doing Good" page. Each week a new group is featured on this page, so BAF should be there until the end of the week (Saturday, 3/31). In addition to a link to BAF, also included on this page is information about Clay and the work that he does:
American Idol Clay Aiken is co-founder of The Bubel Aiken Foundation and a graduate of UNC-Charlotte where he earned his Bachelors degree in special education.Clay has used his celebrity status to make the world a better place for those with disabilities, as well as everyone he comes in contact with. There are so many ways we can help him as he continues to make a difference. One way is to continue our searches at Goodsearch. Click on the Goodsearch link, scroll down, enter your search, enter The Bubel Aiken Foundation as your charity, and then click "Verify". Its that easy. We can make a difference, one search and one penny at a time.
He is a Goodwill Ambassador for UNICEF, a multi-platinum recording artist and an American Music Award and Billboard Music Award winner.
Clay’s passion for music started at a young age and followed him throughout his adolescence. He performed in numerous musicals and was a member of his school choir.
When Clay entered college, music took a backseat while he pursued a degree in special education. While earning his degree, he worked with individuals with autism, among them Michael Bubel, son of Diane Bubel.
As Diane and Clay’s friendship grew, it became apparent they both shared the same vision – a world where children of all abilities were offered the experiences of full inclusion. Their goal became to create TBAF and make this shared vision a reality.
