Hemp For The Homeless - UPDATE

All is advancing well with my Hemp For The Homeless project. Within the month I'll be distributing approximately 50 nutritious and functional 'hemp help kits' to homeless people on the streets of Montreal.

Many thanks to all those individuals and companies who have contributed to the project to date:
