Montréal, Québec — December 11, 2025 — The Simple Plan Foundation announced today the recipients of its 2025 donations in the amount of $300,000 and confirmed that it has now officially surpassed $3 million in total donations since its creation, just a few days before its annual benefit-concert at Théâtre Beanfield on December 16th, 2025. The special night will, of course, feature a performance by the band, along with their good friends Les Trois Accords, and is presented in collaboration with evenko.

20 YEARS OF IMPACT: THE SIMPLE PLAN FOUNDATION’S MISSION
Founded in 2005, the Simple Plan Foundation is dedicated to improving the lives of young people facing difficult circumstances. Its work centers around three core pillars:

2. Assisting social and medical organizations serving ill or disabled children and teens
Supporting hospitals, care programs, and specialized services that improve the quality of life for sick or vulnerable youth.
3. Promoting access to music, music education, and music therapy
Financing music programs in schools, access to musical instruments for underprivileged youth and supporting music therapy initiatives that help build resilience, self-esteem, and emotional well-being.
Over two decades, the Foundation has proudly donated more than $3 million to dozens of charitable organizations across the country.
