As it was announced a couple months ago, at this year’s Canadian Music and Broadcast Industry Awards gala, Simple Plan became the recipients of the Allan Slaight Humanitarian Spirit Award that is annually awarded to “young Canadians who have the ability to turn their talent into inspiration and who are making a positive impact in the field of music, film, literature, visual or performing arts, sports, innovation or philanthropy.”
Simple Plan received the award in recognition of their global fundraising efforts and dedication to youth welfare, both individually and through the Simple Plan Foundation.
Four members of Simple Plan (all except for David) were present at the ceremony last night to accept the award. Apart from the speech, Pierre later came back on the stage to perform This Song Saved My Life acoustically.
Check out the pictures from the acceptance of the award and from Pierre’s performance in the gallery:
Congratulations again, Simple Plan! Well deserved!
