Simple Plan doneert $20.000 aan goed doel

De Simple Plan Foundation, de stichting van Simple Plan, heeft onlangs $20.000 gedoneerd aan het Association des centres jeunesse du Québec. Deze organisatie houdt zich bezig met het creëren van banen voor de jongeren in Quebec. Hieronder kun je lezen wat bandleden Jeff Stinco en Sébastien Lefebvre over de donatie vertelden.

The transition to adulthood is not always easy for young people and can even be downright problematic for some of them. Not only young people in youth centers have experienced a particular path, but when they reach the age of 18, they have to take responsibility almost overnight, be self-reliant and take charge of their adult status. To accomplish this transition, which is especially demanding, they need support and, among others, to be given a ‘first opportunity’. We firmly believe that giving them a first job will facilitate their integration into society and especially contribute to value and to restore confidence in themselves and their future.
