Sign Language Classes For Budtenders
The Collaborative Movement To Infuse Sign Language Into The World Of Cannabis
“Okay. AMAZING. Thank you so much for this opportunity today! I learned a boatload in only 60 minutes and Matt [of DeafinitelyDope.org] was the best teacher I could have imagined. This made a huge impact on me. Thank you, thank you, thank you!”
— David Tart, Marketing Manager (Curaleaf)
COMMUNITY UPDATE
This community-wide need calls for a community wide-response. That’s why we’re changing how we’re doing things. Instead of 2-3 Sponsors, we’re inviting everyone to help bring back Sign Language Classes For Cannabis! Our initial goal is 60 supporters at $5+/month to cover the minimum monthly cost. Once we achieve this, we will collaboratively grow the program from there.

Calling All Dispensaries, Brands, Ancillary Businesses, Budtenders & Supporters!
In partnership with Matt Maxey & his team at Deafinitely Dope, we helped provide six months of FREE American Sign Language (ASL) classes for Budtenders & Cannabis Teams! We learned words and phrases that helped us better connect with our customers, community members & friends who are d/Deaf or Hard of Hearing. Now it’s time to bring this resource back!
Option A. RELAUNCH Sponsor
Help cover the 4 months of Sign Language classes to give us time to recruit enough Ongoing Sponsors at $5/month.
INITAL GOAL: $1,680 (click here to see the breakdown)
Option B. ONGOING Sponsor
Make the commitment today & we’ll send the you the link to pay after we reach 60 Ongoing Sponsors at $5+/month. If 0.005% of Dispensaries join this program, this free community resource can return!
INITIAL GOAL: 60 sponsors at $5+ a month
