Leaf411, a cannabis nurse guidance call service, recently resumed its Affordability Program for patients in economic need, as inflation drives up prices for everything from food to gas to energy. The program provides participants with low-cost or free cannabis products provided through generous donations from Leaf411 business members. In a sign of the economic times, enrollment in the program quadrupled in recent weeks to nearly 600 participants.
“We recently accepted a very generous donation of product from Elixinol ELLXF, a long-time vetted Leaf411 member,” stated Katherine Golden, CEO of Leaf411. “It could not have come at a better time because we have seen such a large increase in need from the Leaf411 community. We are receiving more requests for affordable medicine than ever in the history of the organization.”
The Leaf411 Affordability Program provides donated cannabis products to low-income medical cannabis patients, relying on donations from the cannabis business community in order to serve program participants. Typically, dispensaries or manufacturers who are vetted Leaf411 business members provide donations when products are nearing their expiration date. Rather than disposing of these products, members donate them to Leaf411’s Affordability Program where they can quickly be utilized by patients in need. Products are distributed on a first come, first served basis and a patient’s preferred medication might not always be available.
The Leaf411 Affordability Program does not handle products or store them. The Leaf411 team simply connects the dots of assigning a program participant to the donated product, that is then picked up at a participating dispensary or is directly shipped from a vetted CBD hemp member to the participant if it is a hemp product.
