Ever since his brother Jay has been through cancer, Pierre Bouvier<\/b> from Simple Plan has been very interested in helping out various cancer charity programs and campaigns. His latest involvement is with the Nez Pour Vivre<\/b> foundation, which helps young adults between the ages of 18-35 living with cancer<\/b>. The Nez Pour Vivre foundation is currently running a campaign with a goal of reaching 1 million dollars between October 1st 2015 and October 1st 2016 with proceeds going to cancer research. <\/p>\n

To do this, the Foundation has sought out the help of over 200 personalities: artists, public figures, athletes, business leaders to support the campaign by taking a selfie while wearing a red nose, publishing it on their social media profiles and inviting their fans to do the same. The red nose can be purchased for $2 at many of the Foundation’s partners’ stores, such as Tim Hortons, Jean Coutu, Archambault, Party Expert, Rossy, KFC, VitroPlus and Giant Tiger.<\/p>\n

After registering on the Foundation’s website, the selfie-takers can also win some interesting prizes – one of which is a performance of Pierre Bouvier at one chosen high school<\/b> [in Canada]. More info can be found here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Check out Pierre’s red nose picture<\/b>, which he posted on Instagram last night:<\/p>\n
