Garou, a popular and generous mentor
The singer from Quebec, who already stood by families and researchers for the Telethon in 2014, is once again going to put his talents into the fight against rare genetic diseases. A cause that is close to his heart for he accepted in 2015 to foster I-Motion, the brand new institute co-created by the AFM-Téléthon dedicated to advanced therapy clinical trials for children and that Garou visited in November 2015.
“When you are the mentor of the Telethon once, you are one forever. It’s true, when you’ve experienced it, you belong to this great family forever, because this is it, it’s a great chance we have to give, to get involved to this great, cheerful event,” he had emphasised.
Finally, this year, AFM-Téléthon along with France Télévisions is proud to have him by their sides once again as mentor of the Telethon.
