PHILANTHROPY

Supporting feeding kids first for the 7th year!

Peanut Butter Drive 2022For the seventh consecutive year, Torrey Holistics is partnering with Got Your Back San Diego and its parent organization, Feeding Kids First, for their annual Peanut Butter Drive to help end child hunger and food insecurity throughout San Diego County.

Got Your Back San Diego provides weekly groceries to over 300 San Diego school children and their families, which is approximately 15,000 provisions each year. And that’s where Torrey Holistics’ Peanut Butter Drive comes in!  It is our goal to provide a jar of peanut butter to each one of the 300 San Diego school children, who are served by Got Your Back San Diego.

The process to achieving that goal is simple! We ask for a donation of a 16 oz jar of peanut butter from our customers. In exchange, they are able to receive a preroll for $1.00 This simple process could not happen without the support of our many vendors, who generously donate their products to be used as “rewards”. 

For the past six years, we have surpassed the previous year’s goal. Last year in 2022, we collected and donated over 2,700 jars of peanut butter. This year our goal is to receive and then donate 3,000 jars of peanut butter to Got Your Back San Diego and their 300 children in need.

THE INNOCENCE PROJECT

The California Innocence ProjectAs the nation confronts systemic racism, it is important that members of the cannabis industry recognize the harmful impact that cannabis criminalization has played in the disproportionate rates of incarceration among people of color. That’s why, as a cannabis business in the newly-legal market, Torrey Holistics is committed to playing a part in righting the wrongs inflicted by the War on Drugs. Furthermore, in order to fight for a more equitable criminal justice system, we have donated $2,000 to the California Innocence Project.

The California Innocence Project (CIP) is dedicated to releasing wrongfully convicted inmates, providing an outstanding educational experience to law students, and promoting a fair and effective criminal justice system by advocating for change in California laws and policy.

Crohn’s + Colitis Foundation

Torrey’s Assistant Marketing Director, Shelby has decided to make a difference in the fight against Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. On July 15, 2018, she participated in the Napa-to-Sonoma Wine Country Half Marathon, raising over $4,000 in the process.

1.6 million Americans suffer from Crohn’s disease and/or ulcerative colitis. These conditions are painful and debilitating, and currently there is no cure for either. Those afflicted by these diseases must frequently undergo procedures that are costly and time-consuming.

Luckily, the Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation is an accredited non-profit organization that strives to improve the quality of life for sufferers of these conditions. It was given an ‘A’ rating by the independent watchdog group Charity Watch. Much of the contributions made will be given right back to research facilities at UC San Diego.

As a donor to her campaign, Torrey Holistics is proud to support Shelby as she runs for research.

Weed For Warriors

In the summer of 2017, Torrey Holistics raised over $40,000 for the Weed For Warriors Project, a nonprofit organization that advocates to the VA “on behalf of veterans in the United States seeking relief from cannabis.”

“Veterans are being prescribed harsh pharmaceutical drugs that are extremely addictive and have been linked to thousands of Veteran suicides.

Cannabis has been proven to help with PTSD, cancer, chronic pain, sleep disorders, crohn’s disease, migraines, addiction withdrawal and has statistically lowered the suicide rate in states where it is legal.”

“Weed For Warriors Project’s sole purpose is to advocate to the Veteran Affairs Administration on behalf of all Veterans. Founded in 2014, the WFW Project aims to allow Veterans the freedom to use medical marijuana as a recognized medical alternative to harmful psychiatric drugs without any discrimination or unjust actions against the individual.”

To the brave veterans who risked their lives serving our country – we salute you!
