Today, Sebastien and Jeff from Simple Plan (as the representatives of the Simple Plan Foundation) were in the attendance of the groundbreaking ceremony of the Garage à musique relocation project of the Dr Julien Foundation that took place at the Oliva-Pelletier building in Montreal, Canada.
The Garage à musique project contributes to the optimal development of children and youth from disadvantaged backgrounds – aged 0 to 20 – in accordance with ‘The Convention on the Rights of the Child’. The program incorporates powerful development tools to the community social pediatrics model: collective music teaching and school support adapted to the learning difficulties of children and young people. This project offers a friendly and safe environment to accompany them on their life trajectory and minimize the negative impacts of difficult living conditions on their growth.
