CHICAGO, Nov. 08, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- In a release issued under the same headline earlier today by nuEra, please note that the proceeds figure was incorrect. The corrected release follows:
In honor of Veterans Day, nuEra Cannabis is proud to announce a fundraiser in support of the Balanced Veterans Network (BVN).
Taking place on Veterans Day, November 11, 2024, this initiative aims to raise funds and awareness for the mental health and well-being of veterans, with 5% of the proceeds from all nuEra house brands (nuEra, Interstate 420, Midweek Friday) going directly to the Balanced Veterans Network. Also all Veterans get an extra 10% off the regular Veterans membership discount from 11/8-11/11.
nuEra’s Veterans Day fundraiser is part of its commitment to giving back to the community and supporting those who have served. Veterans face unique challenges, and organizations like Balanced Veterans Network are making a significant impact by providing critical resources, education, and advocacy. Through this one-day campaign, nuEra is proud to contribute to BVN’s mission of supporting veterans' mental health.
All of the nuEra dispensaries will be participating:
- Chicago dispensary
- East Peoria dispensary
- Urbana dispensary
- Champaign dispensary
- Aurora dispensary
- Pekin dispensary
- DeKalb dispensary
“We believe that veterans deserve access to the best resources available, and Balanced Veterans Network is doing incredible work to ensure that happens,” said Jonah Rapino, Director of Marketing at nuEra Cannabis. “This fundraiser is an opportunity for our customers to directly support the well-being of veterans while purchasing products they already love.”
"nuEra Cannabis and their steadfast commitment to expanding veterans' access to high-quality cannabis products are invaluable to our mission," said Victor Bohm, CEO of BVN. "We are deeply grateful to collaborate with such a dedicated partner that shares our vision for enhancing the lives of veterans and their families."
The fundraiser will be held at all nuEra dispensary locations across Illinois, with specific products designated for the campaign. Every purchase of these products on Veterans Day will directly contribute to BVN’s mission to improve the lives of veterans.
