Clay Aiken's National Inclusion Project has won $10,000 dollars thanks to the Christie Cookie Charity Contest.
Decided by online votes, the Christie Cookie Charity Giveaway donates the money to the charity that gets the most support. This year, that was the National Inclusion project, co-founded by Clay Aiken. The foundation works to help children with disabilities feel included by doing what other children can.
In a news article on Clay Aiken's official website, it read, "Thanks to everyone that voted in the Christie Cookie Charity Giveaway. Your votes were enough to put us back in the top spot!! A $10,000 check was presented to the National Inclusion Project last weekend at their annual gala. This would not have been possible without you all."

The National Inclusion Project does a wonderful job, both with it's mission, and in the handling and use of it's resources. This foundation has moved from the dream of two people to the national leader in it field in six years. Best Wishes to the N.I.P. for all your future endeavors.
Bonnie: I couldn't have said it any better.
Thank you to Romina Masaa for spotlighting Clay's foundation. So many children and families have benefited. Clay saw a need way back when he was in college and he surrounded himself with the right people to make the dream a reality.
This is heart warming news! A very good cause started by a man who holds the rights/needs of children close to his heart. I have seen some of the fruits of their labor at a summer camp and it was fantastic to behold the smiles and laughter it gave to those children.
Congrats to the National Inclusion Project!! Wonderful cause!! Clay Aiken & Diane Bubel should be commended for bringing a dream to a successful reality, changing the lives of thousands of children - both special needs and typically functioning.
Thank you!
What wonderful news!! I am always proud of the work Clay Aiken is doing and want to support his efforts in any way I can.
(PS--I also love his voice and hope we will soon have another CD and a tour!!!)
Thank you for posting this news. The National Inclusion Project has helped so many children in the past years. AND, they are used as a resource in the filed of inclusion.
I am sure the Christie Cookie Money will be used wisely.
I'm very proud or the strides that the National Inclusion Project has made in the last 6 years. Clay Aiken and Diane Bubel are the heart and soul of that organization. Thanks to Christie Cookies for their donation, which will assist in the National Inclusion
Project's mission of inclusion for all children, and to the
Project supporters for their votes.
So nice to see something so positive about this young man. His work with this foundation is much more interesting news than sometimes gets printed. This is worth knowing about.
