PLANET 13 HONORS FLORIDA VETERANS AND FIRST RESPONDERS BY MAKING MEDICAL CANNABIS CARDS MORE ACCESSIBLE LEADING UP TO VETERANS DAY

Planet 13 Holdings Inc.'s has provided details on its Healing Heroes initiative aimed at honouring Florida's veterans and first responders. From Nov. 1 to Nov. 14, 2024, Planet 13, through a donation, will partner with The Grateful Veteran, a trusted veteran-run organization that promotes veteran wellness and will help veterans and first responders defray the costs of medical cannabis cards and renewals.

In conjunction with Veterans Day on Nov. 11, this initiative reflects Planet 13's commitment to supporting those who have served their communities. The effort will leverage a network of cannabis doctors throughout Florida. The Grateful Veteran will facilitate the intake and vetting process of applicants through on-line signups while connecting them to their closest doctor.

By partnering with The Grateful Veteran, Planet 13 aims to reduce the financial burden for Florida veterans and first responders seeking access to medical cannabis. This initiative aligns with Planet 13's core value of giving back to those who protect and serve.

"We deeply appreciate and honor our veterans and first responders and thank them for their sacrifice and service to our country," said fellow veteran and Planet 13 co-chief executive officer Larry Scheffler.

"This donation by Planet 13 perfectly aligns with our mission," said Jeffrey DeMond, veteran and president of The Grateful Veteran. "Our goal is to empower veterans and give them alternative medical solutions to heal both mentally and physically. We are grateful for this partnership."

A collaborative effort across Florida

The initiative will work with The Grateful Veteran and participating cannabis doctors such as DocMJ to ensure veterans and first responders can access free or discounted services for medical cannabis cards or renewals. This program is designed to make medical cannabis more accessible to those who have dedicated their lives to service.

"At DocMJ, we are deeply committed to providing individualized wellness services that improve patients' lives and relieve suffering," said Aaron Bloom, chief executive officer of DocMJ. "Through our partnership with The Grateful Veteran, we are able to make medical cannabis more accessible by providing an affordable, holistic option for veterans and first responders. We are proud to support these everyday heroes through compassionate care and individualized wellness services tailored to their specific needs."

How to participate

Veterans and first responders interested in participating can visit The Grateful Veteran's website to register for this program. From there, they will be guided through the process of obtaining or renewing their medical cannabis cards, with support from participating doctors.

This initiative is available to Florida residents only and will run the first two weeks of November. Veterans and first responders are encouraged to register early to secure their participation.
