The Capitales de Québec of the Can-Am
League and Pierre-Luc Forest join forces with
UNICEF and B45 to support humanitarian aid
worldwide.
Each time Laforest, the Capitales' first baseman,
catcher and ex-major leaguer, will hit a home
run, B45 will make a $1,000 donation to UNICEF.
For this occasion, B45 produced a special
bat bearing the United Nations blue colour
and the UNICEF
logo. The reputed composer, musician and singer,
Steve Barakatt, represented UNICEF
as its ambassador at the press conference
on August 19, 2010 announcing the partnership.
In addition, B45 will also sell a limited
quantity of bats and mini-bats bearing the
United Nations blue colour et part of the
funds collected will be donated to UNICEF.
