Cannabis industry tax revenue provides law enforcement funding. Dispensary sales support police budgets in adult-use and medical-use states. Community reinvestment activists question whether giving local police departments a cut of cannabis wealth is truly justice.
Cannabis Can! Feed The Hungry Virtual Food Drive
Dear Mary Jane,
Since the virus began, I have been stuck at home with my crabby unemployed parents and gnarly sibs. We are all hungry most of the time. I used to go the school and eat breakfast and lunch there, but now they are closed. I used to visit friends, neighbors and family members around mealtimes, but now everyone is afraid to have people in their homes because of the virus. I remember my family used to get all sorts of food donations at holiday time from a group called Cannabis Can! Are they still around? Can they help me now?
M. T. Belly
Dear M. T. Belly,
Yes, we are still around. We noticed the increased need due to the virus, so we opened a virtual food drive which is entirely online. Our 35 partners across Ohio have helped the Virtual Food Drive reach just over $2,000. We are two thirds of the way to our goal of $3,000. Please tell others to follow this link and make a donation in $5 increments. Improve someone’s life. Fill their pantry. Stop hunger now.
Here is the Cincinnati link to share and donate. Click on for the Cannabis Can! Virtual Food Campaign for the Freestore Foodbank in Cincinnati. It is on the second page of Donor listings.
