At Grow West, corporate social responsibility, the way we lead, work, and behave, is driven by core values – a belief system that all minds, bodies, and spirits deserve dignity and consideration. We want to give back to the world just as it gives to us. We know it’s the right thing to do, and it integrates perfectly with our mission: to grow wholesome, natural healing plants for the mind, body, and spirit. Beyond providing hope for patients across our state, our company preserves a budget to make monetary donations and implement programs and projects.
Grow West Initiative
To advance health, wellness and alleviate those in need, to provide community support, promote education, culture and the arts.
Supporting the Community
We focus our efforts on the most vulnerable who need access to food, shelter, resources and adequate access to healthcare. As part of our commitment to grow forward, our team supports the community by initiating company-wide volunteer activities.
Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic we recognized the real and immediate issue of food insecurity too many members of the community face each day. Grow West organized a continuous drive donating a portion of monthly dispensary sales to the Western Maryland Food Bank.
We assist our community partners by offering our products at a lower cost to local patients and giving funds for free healthcare through The Children’s League.
The company donates to local schools to purchase supplies for students in need, as well as purchasing clothing for children participating with CASA of Allegany County.
Learning and Education
We actively invest in research and development. Our company will try to continuously improve its operations through education and staff development. We will continue to work with academia to offer educational programs to students in the surrounding areas.
