Who We Are
Hi there, my name is Benjamin Filiatrault but you can call me Papiben. My story begins with a passion for technology and a successful career in the industry. However, my life took a turning point when I decided to travel the world at the age of 23. During my travels, I witnessed the struggles faced by marginalized communities and it deeply impacted me. I realized the power of art to bring about positive change and I knew I had to do something about it.
This is when I founded the non-profit organization, using art as a tool to amplify the voices of marginalized communities and inspire individuals to work towards a more just and equitable world. The organization aims to promote awareness about the issues faced by these communities and encourage people to take action.
I am an introvert by nature but I have dedicated myself to promoting the projects of the organization and building a network to make a lasting impact. My travels have taught me the importance of spreading the message and I believe that my platform as Mister Global Canada 2022 provides me with a unique opportunity to do so. I am proud to represent Canada and I am committed to using my position to bring attention to important issues and inspire positive change through my artistic pursuits.
My organization is more than just a passion project, it is a calling to make a difference in the world. I am grateful for the opportunity to use my skills and resources to make a positive impact on the lives of others. I hope to inspire others to join me on this journey and work towards a better future for all.
If you share my vision and want to work towards creating a better future, I would love for you to be a part of our organization. Whether it's through volunteering, supporting our initiatives, or spreading the word, there are many ways to get involved and make an impact. Let's work together to create a better world.
