| Artists Collective Deals Dope! Posted: 13 Feb 2011 07:46 AM PST There's something unique going on down over at The Arts Collective at www.artistsforaccess.org which uniquely blends art, charity and medical marijuana! Essentially AFA wants to build their L.A-based non-profit medical marijuana delivery service to a scale where they can provide grant funding for the creative community. Pure genius!
Here's an excerpt from the site "Our non-profit goal is using medical marijuana proceeds (in combination with private tax-deductable donations) to fund art grants. We continue working toward our goal of full organizational funding and plan to begin awarding grants in 2010." But they're not stopping the love there, read this… "In the meantime, we encourge new Federal and State laws that (a) require cannabis clubs be locally owned and (b) all cannabis clubs be affiliated with a Federally recognized non-profit and (c) a significant percentage of annual profits be dedicated toward helping fund that non-profit charity." Wowzers. Weed for all and free money for the arts, could this be a sign of the future? I do hope so! |
