MWG Holdings Strengthens Commitment to Cannabis Criminal Justice Reform Through Partnership with Last Prisoner Project

MWG Holdings Group, Inc., a prominent cannabis company in California, has announced the continuation of its partnership with the Last Prisoner Project, a national nonprofit focused on cannabis criminal justice reform. Through an in-store fundraising campaign at its Perfect Union dispensaries, running through July, MWG Holdings aims to support the release of individuals incarcerated for cannabis offenses and address the harms of criminalization.

Angelica Sanchez, MWG Holdings’ VP of Government Affairs and Compliance, emphasized the importance of this initiative, stating, "Our partnership with the Last Prisoner Project reflects our deep belief that no one should remain incarcerated for actions that are now legal in California and many other states." This campaign not only highlights the company's commitment to social justice but also invites customers to contribute to meaningful reform.

Since 2020, MWG and the Last Prisoner Project have collaborated to raise funds for legal support, policy reform advocacy, reentry services, and support for justice-impacted communities. The Last Prisoner Project has made significant strides, redistributing over $3.5 million to those in need and providing pro bono legal counsel to more than 400 individuals.

Philip Feng, Development Associate at the Last Prisoner Project, acknowledged the critical role of partners like Perfect Union in advancing their mission. "It’s up to all of us, from industry leaders and advocates to everyday citizens, to ensure that no one is left behind as the cannabis landscape evolves," Feng remarked.

Customers can participate in the fundraiser by donating at any Perfect Union dispensary location or Wild Seed Wellness store through the end of July. This initiative is part of MWG’s broader philanthropic efforts, which include supporting nonprofits focused on mentorship, health, foster youth, and food security across California.
