Clay Wins Children's Advocacy Award from the National Center for Learning Disabilities

Clay featured at the National Center for Learning Disabilities website.

Here's one more example why Clay's work with the Bubel Aiken Foundation and UNICEF is affecting and changing lives each and everyday.

According to Vox The Editor's Life, Clay received this honour at a special event held at the Marriott Marquis Hotel in New York City on Wednesday night, the same time as American Idol broadcast its 2-hour special "Idol Gives Back":

American Idol Gives Back, Takes Award

On the same night that top-rated television show American Idol concluded a history-making two-part special, raising (at last count) more than $60 million for charitable causes, one-time American Idol finalist and successful recording star Clay Aiken received the Children's Advocacy Award from the National Center for Learning Disabilities, held at the Marriott Marquis. Aiken was honored for his tireless work on behalf of children's causes.

The evening--though it did not feature a performance by Aiken--was not without its excitement, which came in the form of a live auction for--among other things--a Ford Mustang (won for just under $35,000) and a bespoke suit by New York menswear designer Jay Kos. All told, the gala, which celebrated the NCLD's thirtieth anniversary, raised just over $2 million.

Congratulations Clay from everyone at CDD!
