Other highlights from Green Thumb's Social Impact Report include:

• Community Engagement: Empowered Green Thumb team members with resources needed to support and volunteer with local nonprofits, contributing nearly $600,000 to community organizations nationwide through retail giving programs.
• Diversity, Equity & Inclusion: Created a more inclusive cannabis culture—within Green Thumb and the industry—through the launch of Employee Resource Groups and support of diverse entrepreneurs and organizations that intersect with communities such as LGBTQ+, women, veterans and people with disabilities.
• Restorative Justice: Partnered with organizations that enact real, positive change in Black and Brown communities disproportionately affected by the War on Drugs through its brand Good Green , contributing more than $1.5 million in funding to nonprofit organizations nationwide.
• Environmental Stewardship: Innovated and improved our growing, manufacturing and packaging processes as we continue to reduce our environmental impact.
