5 Cannabis Causes You Can Donate For Now
No matter what time of year, legal weed lovers have a responsibility to speak out about the injustices of cannabis criminalization and take action when they can.
If you have the funds available, you can contribute to advancement and social justice in the cannabis industry by donating for cannabis purposes. Not sure where (or how) to give your support? We’ve selected a few organizations to get you started and pointed out directly where they accept donations.
Time to get into the spirit of giving.
Nu project
The legal cannabis industry is thriving – but there is no level playing field. Nu Project supports communities disproportionately harmed by cannabis crime through programs designed to help them overcome common hurdles: capital, education / performance, and connection.
With every donation, you can join Nu Project’s mission to help people with color build generational wealth and open the door to success in the cannabis industry.

Last prisoner project
With an estimated 40,000 lives at stake, The Last Prisoner Project is dedicated to the rescue and rehabilitation of every last person incarcerated for cannabis. The coalition’s intervention, lobbying and awareness campaigns work together to ensure FULL freedom for all detainees.

NORML
NORML – an organization that works for the decriminalization of cannabis and the normalization of responsible consumption – has been fighting for the good fight since 1970.
With a strong track record, NORML continues to lead efforts to reform state and federal law, advocate for consumers, and counter the government’s Reefer Madness narrative through open access cannabis education. Donate once or monthly to NORML to keep our future green.
