According to the Langley Times, Simmons gave a $100,000 boost to the Gala of Hope fundraiser for The Centre for Child Development and Sophie’s Place Child and Youth Advocacy Centre held at the Newlands Golf and Country Club in Langley this past Saturday night (October 22nd). In addition to the donation, Simmons also auctioned off a "blade" guitar. A total of $280,000 was raised by the gala, the centre said.
Simmons was there with his wife, Canadian model and actress Shannon Tweed, to show support for their daughter, Sophie Tweed-Simmons, who lent her name to the Surrey facility.
In a statement issued by the centre, Tweed-Simmons said the team at Sophie’s Place conducted more than 200 interviews with abused children over the past year.
“It’s really important that kids have a place to go where they can be taken seriously, and where they can express what’s happened to them in a safe environment."
