Amanya Maloba, Janice Ibarra, and Vanity Thomas are the founders of a women-of-color collective that seeks to motivate empowerment within the cannabis community. Referred to as "ganjapreneurs," these bold individuals create a safe space that is dedicated to "highlighting badass chicks who pursue their dreams [...] and share the same love of cannabis."

Women.Weed.Wifi is a website that educates readers about the healing and alleviating powers of the plant. From an informative blog to an [e-commerce platform](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/digital-storefronts), the empowering women-of-color collective also extends its services for private and group sessions. These are meant as affordable alternatives to expensive therapies, spas and more. From Yoga & Meditation Workshops to Graphic Design Sessions, Women.Weed.Wifi seeks to provide safe and informative opportunities to the modern consumer.
