A History of Compassion and Commitment
Did you know that Garden Remedies has been active in helping breast cancer patients and survivors since its inception? This October marks more than 10 years of our engagement in this cause. While our partner organizations and annual campaigns have shifted during the last decade, our commitment to helping the women and communities affected by breast cancer has not wavered.
“Treating patients has been at the core of Garden Remedies since our foundation in 2013. Our founder, Dr. Karen Munkacy, had her own struggles with breast cancer and turned to medical cannabis for pain relief. Every October we have connected with local non-profits who assist women through their breast cancer treatment process as well as recovery while providing support to their families too. This year, we have partnered with Pawsitively 4 Pink, a group dedicated to providing financial assistance to low-income women struggling with breast cancer. They provide full support, a holistic approach, and furry friends that are trained to be support animals as women take on this illness.”
– Samantha Woodman, Manager of Sustainability and Regulatory Affairs
Partnership With Pawsitively 4 Pink October 2024
This month, Garden Remedies is proud to partner with Pawsitively 4 Pink, a local non-profit that supports low-income, underserved women battling breast cancer in Massachusetts. The organization provides financial aid to families in need – while supporting patients through the treatment and recovery process through a holistic approach. As part of their unique and impactful mission, Pawsitively 4 Pink also provides emotional support dogs to help affected women mitigate stress and anxiety.[1]
Especially since October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Garden Remedies and Pawsitively 4 Pink are enjoying the opportunity to join forces for good. Our partnership is making waves through spreading awareness about the needs of women in our nearby Massachusetts communities – and through this month’s donation program.
How You Can Get Involved: Shop These Specialty Items
Through the month of October, a portion of proceeds from sales on our Puff Puff Give pre-roll, For the Gals edible, and Pink Ribbon pre-roll will go directly to Pawsitively 4 Pink. Buying these three products is the easiest way to contribute to an important cause while receiving delicious, unique, and memorable cannabis items.
All of these products would also make fantastic gifts for the women in your life. You might like to buy a bunch for yourself, savoring their delicious flavors and lovely appearances – and then get enough for all of your friends.
Make a Lasting Impact Beyond October
Our devoted efforts to help breast cancer patients do not end at the end of this month. By choosing to shop at Garden Remedies, you’re aligning yourself with a company deeply committed to the health of breast cancer patients and their families. Our community in Massachusetts stretches far outside of our dispensaries and the three towns where they’re located: we are connected to all Massachusetts residents, all year round, and excited to continue making positive changes throughout our extended community. Stay tuned.
