Simple Plan Honoured With Allan Waters Humanitarian Award

Simple Plan has just been announced as the recipients for the 2012 Allan Waters Humanitarian Award for their work through the Simple Plan Foundation! The Canadian Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences is thrilled to recognize the band for their charitable, global fundraising efforts and dedication to supporting youth through several Canadian charities.

“Words cannot express how grateful we are to be the recipients of this award,” said Chuck. “To be recognized by CARAS and the JUNO Awards is a true honour for us. As a band we have been very fortunate to receive the constant support of our fans, which has allowed us to continue doing what we love for the last ten years. Because of that, we believe that it is extremely important for us to give back, and the Simple Plan Foundation is our way to do this. We are very proud of all of our Foundation’s initiatives — they have helped to define us as a band and have become a large part of who we are. There is no question that the Simple Plan Foundation will continue to grow and that we will be able to help our communities for many years to come."

The band will receive the Allan Waters Humanitarian Award on March 31st in Ottawa, Ontario at the JUNO Awards Gala.
