MAPS Funds Security Guards to Protect Israeli Marijuana Facility

 

Using funds from an anonymous donor, MAPS has donated $750, with another $3000 likely to follow, to Yohai Golan for security guards to protect the Israeli medical marijuana production facility that he has been operating, with previous assistance from MAPS. Our involvement in this project began with a $15,000 matching grant donation from the same donor.

 

Harvest time is nearing and over the next two months the facility is expecting to produce approximately 150 kg of high-potency medical marijuana, with a retail value of more than $1 million (calculated at $7 a gram, which is quite a low price). All of the marijuana will be given away for free to Israeli Ministry of Health-approved medical marijuana patients. The key policy change that the Ministry is considering is whether to allow the sale of medical marijuana. This is necessary in order to create a sustainable model that can meet the needs of patients over the long run.

 

MAPS has also sponsored Val Corral, Mimi Peleg, and Mike Corral, from Wo/Mens Alliance for Medical Marijuana, to travel to Israel to consult with several Israeli medical marijuana growers and activists, and with the Ministry of Health.
