Bud & Mary's, a leading multi-state cannabis operator, has announced the launch of its BatchAware-N-Us Breast Cancer Awareness campaign, aligning with National Breast Cancer Awareness Month this October. The initiative pairs product sales with meaningful donations to breast cancer nonprofits working in the communities Bud & Mary's serves across four states, sharing survivor voices, and demonstrating the role cannabis can play in supportive care.
Through several statewide partnerships, Bud & Mary's will donate $1–$2 per unit sold to local nonprofit organizations, with a minimum commitment of $20,000 in total contributions across four markets. The featured products include Batch Flavors Juicy Melons, a hybrid premium distillate blend of natural fruit terpenes bursting with juicy, sweet, and floral flavors. In Colorado, contributions will also be generated from the sales of limited edition 5-pack infused pre-rolls in Blazy Susan pink iconic papers and a custom-designed pink tin.
We believe in the power of community, compassion, and delivering products with care, said Lindsey Fuchs, VP Sales at Bud & Mary's. Each product purchased through this initiative helps deliver direct support to local community breast cancer organizations conducting vital work, while honoring the patients and families who inspire us every day.
The campaign features state-specific partnerships with established breast cancer organizations. In Iowa, Bud & Mary's is partnering with Above + Beyond Cancer, with $2 donated per unit sold of Juicy Melon 1G AIO and 1G 510 carts. Illinois contributions will go to the Lynn Sage Foundation, with $2 per unit donation from Juicy Melon 2G 510 carts sales. Michigan will support the Pink Fund, a national nonprofit based in Michigan, with $1 per unit donation from 2G AIO Juicy Melon products. Colorado features collaboration with Blazy Susan with $1 donated per unit of 5 pack pre-rolls and $1 per unit donation from Juicy Melons 2G 510 carts sales to Pink Fund.
At Above + Beyond Cancer, we believe in caring for the whole person—mind, body, and spirit—throughout the cancer journey, said Dr. Richard Deming, MD, FACR, FACRO, Founder of Above + Beyond Cancer and Medical Director at MercyOne Richard Deming Cancer Center. We are grateful to Bud & Mary's for their commitment to our mission and for recognizing the importance of bringing hope, healing, and community to cancer survivors and their families.
The timing of this initiative is particularly significant given current needs in breast cancer support. We are so grateful for our partnership with Bud & Mary's this October, said Molly MacDonald, co-founder and CEO of Pink Fund. This collaboration comes at a critical time for our organization, as we're receiving a record number of requests for financial assistance from breast cancer patients in treatment.
This campaign represents a significant step in demonstrating how cannabis companies can integrate meaningful social responsibility into their business models while addressing real community needs. The multi-state approach ensures that donations directly benefit local organizations serving patients in the specific communities where Bud & Mary's operates.
