New York, New York--(Newsfile Corp. - September 12, 2024) - Founder of RAW Rolling Papers, Josh Kesselman, has announced the company's latest philanthropic effort: a $50,000 donation to the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML). This donation exemplifies RAW and Kesselman's commitment to addressing the repercussions of the War on Drugs

Josh Kesselman, RAW Rolling Papers Founder.

NORML was established in 1970. Its mission is "to move public opinion sufficiently to legalize the responsible use of marijuana by adults, and to serve as an advocate for consumers to assure they have access to high quality marijuana that is safe, convenient and affordable."

Josh Kesselman and RAW's donation can contribute to the organization's efforts to facilitate the expungement of criminal cannabis convictions, end the collateral consequences of prohibition, and assure equal access to cannabis for all. Additionally, RAW's $50,000 contribution can support NORML's national Amicus Committee. An Amicus Committee provides amicus curiae ('friend of the court') briefs in legal cases. NORML's committee files these briefs in state and federal cases involving crucial cannabis-related issues nationwide.

A blog post on NORML's site states, "NORML and RAW are aligned in their efforts to educate and promote the responsible use of the plant while also campaigning for the rights of consumers who continue to suffer under prohibitionist policies and social stigmas."
