B.C. cannabis companies unite in a joint effort for warmth
The common saying “strength is greater in numbers” rings true in the event of a select group of businesses working together to help others this holiday season.
Ten Canadian cannabis companies have joined forces and are leveraging their public reach to help those in need stay warm and dry during the upcoming winter. The 2023 Canna Winter Coat Drive has requested donations of gently used coats, jackets, sweaters, blankets and socks to be distributed in various B.C. locations that include Vancouver, Victoria and the Okanagan.
The clothing will be given to shelters for the unhoused, women’s shelters and other B.C. charities.
Together, the participating companies, which include craft cannabis producers, dispensaries, an educational institution, a nutrient company and an advocacy group, are using their combined social media reach of over 110,000 followers to request donations for the drive.
