Community is a big part of the Mile High 420 Festival
We are so very proud to partner with the LARGEST FREE 420 Festival in the country, the Mile High 420 Festival! Taking place on Friday, April 20, 2018 at Civic Center Park in Downtown Denver, Colorado, the organizers of the festival want it to help show the impact the cannabis industry and indeed the entire cannabis community has on its local community. To this end, the festival will feature local bands, comedians and artists, a health and wellness section and also the CannaMakeADifference Pavilion!
The CannaMakeADifference Pavilion will house 20 501c3 nonprofit organizations, vendors and entertainment. This pavilion will educate, entertain and show the positive social and community aspects of the industry and indeed the entire cannabis community.
Come and join us on April 20, 2018! We will be to the left of the main stage (looking at the main stage). SEE YOU THERE!

KND Associates LLC has put together a white paper entitled Accepting Cannabis Donations for Your Nonprofit Organization: Risks, Rewards and Best Practices.

Colorado has over 30,000 501(c)(3) nonprofits. At last count over 80% of them were considered small, and most of them have a direct impact on their local community.
On September 20, 2017, we would like you to join us in our effort to empower these small nonprofits continue to empower the communities they serve!
100% of all donations on September 20, 2017 through our Donation Page and/or through SMS will be providing grants to small, Colorado-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations throughout Colorado! A committee of cannabis industry leaders, state government officials, nonprofit professionals, and philanthropists will be reviewing selected grant proposals from these nonprofits. 100% of the money from these grants will go towards helping these small Colorado-based charities move their organizations forward and help more of the population they are helping, from animals to veterans and everything and everyone in between, in all corners of the great state of Colorado!
Think about it… if we collectively can raise millions on one day, and it’s all going to great causes across our entire state, what kind of positive light would that shed on the entire cannabis community? It would make the industry look REALLY good!
So Give & Toke on September 20, 2017 and we CANNA MAKE A DIFFERENCE for small nonprofits, our state and the entire cananabis community all at once!
