A company that makes it their mission to have a postive impact on their community will thrive.
One way for cannabis companies to shake the stigma associated with the industry is to be socially conscious and philanthropic.
A Leader with a Cause
This morning, Canopy Growth Corp. announced that they will be funding a first of its kind AIDS research program in conjunction with the Canadian AIDS Society. The program is designed to provide up to date information and research regarding administering patients cannabis-derived therapies and to build tools for healthcare professionals to confidently assess and prescribe cannabis to patients.
Canopy Growth will be funding the project with $200,000 to be invested over the next two years. The project will be spearheaded by the newly minted Cannabis Research Task Force. The taskforce will be responsible for developing guidelines regarding the medical use of cannabis as it applies to wellness, pain management and quality of life.
