Ilera Healthcare Giving $100,000 to Non-Profits Dedicated to Diversity, Social Justice and Those Affected by Job Loss

We face a historic set of crises in our nation with this Covid-19 pandemic, high unemployment rates reaching levels last seen in 1929, and significant social unrest in our communities. While these are deeply troubling times for many, we find it compelling and hopeful that there are many bright lights in our community that are driven by integrity, equality, work ethic, and compassion for their fellow citizens and deserve recognition as we move into our future.

As part of this recognition, Ilera Healthcare and the Apothecarium Dispensaries are planning to give a total of $100,000 to the below non-profits who are helping lead the way into an ever-improving tomorrow.

We are committed to supporting non-profit organizations who are dedicated to diversity, social justice, and providing aid to those affected by job loss. Our corporate giving strategy is designed to support community outreach activities that have lasting value impact, with a priority given to basic living needs, education, and direct support programs for those who live in the communities we serve. We strive to do this in ways that are socially responsible, beneficial to the community, and reflective of common values and interests.
