Work with Local Veteran Orgs
Green Gives Back is proud to work hand-in-hand with local veteran organizations to provide direct support where it’s needed most. Through our events and fundraising efforts, we help fund programs that honor, empower, and uplift veterans in our community.
By connecting the cannabis industry through one of our primary sponsors THE Dispensary with veteran-focused nonprofits, we are creating meaningful partnerships that make a real difference in the lives of those who have served.
Healing Through Connection: Cannabis and Veteran Recovery
At Green Gives Back, we are dedicated to supporting the well-being of our nation's veterans by exploring and advocating for alternative therapies that can aid in their recovery journey. One such promising avenue is the use of cannabis to alleviate symptoms associated with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and other service-related conditions.
Recent studies have shown that cannabis may offer therapeutic benefits for veterans coping with PTSD. Research indicates that cannabinoids, the active compounds in cannabis, can modulate the brain's response to stress and fear, potentially reducing anxiety and improving sleep quality - suggesting that cannabis could serve as a valuable tool in the comprehensive care of veterans, complementing existing therapies and improving an overall quality of life.
Through our events and initiatives, Green Gives Back aims to raise awareness and funds to support veterans' access to such alternative treatments. By bridging the gap between the cannabis industry and veteran support organizations, we strive to foster a community where our heroes can find the relief; while also breaking the stigma of prohibition.
