Nonprofit Gives Free Marijuana to Oregon Veterans

National nonprofit organization Grow for Vets is raising money and support for veterans suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder and other medical conditions, as well as handing out free marijuana.

The organization hosted a free cannabis giveaway and rally at Refuge PDX in Portland on Saturday. Both veterans and non-veterans received gift bags containing information about Grow for Vets and free pot-related products.

The rally aimed to raise veterans' awareness about alternative treatment options and to highlight the frequency of prescription drug abuse and suicide.
