The Dutchie technology platform has initiated a philanthropic program titled 'Round Up the Change,' which provides an optional mechanism for customers at participating cannabis dispensaries to contribute the additional cents needed to raise their purchase total to the next whole dollar amount. The aggregated funds will be directed toward organizations advocating for cannabis policy reform.
Dutchie's 'Round Up the Change' is operational for both physical and online transactions. The brand debuted this POS feature in collaboration with established nonprofit groups, including Mission Green and the Last Prisoner Project, as well as trade associations such as the US Cannabis Roundtable. These organizations are focused on expunging criminal records, advocating for sentencing revisions, and supporting individuals adversely affected by past drug enforcement policies.
