<\/a><\/p>\nBringing Happiness to the Homeless: Smokers Club Gives Free Joints<\/p>\n

Since marijuana was legalized in Colorado, there have been many positive side effects.<\/p>\n
Increased tax revenues from marijuana sales are flowing into the school system, violent crime is<\/p>\n
down, and real estate sales are up. Yet, this increase in the quality of life has left many<\/p>\n
disenfranchised. There has apparently been an increase in the number of homeless people on<\/p>\n
the streets of Denver in the past year. Whether down on their luck entrepreneurs or those<\/p>\n
forced out of cheap housing, these folks are in need.<\/p>\n
Whatever the reason behind their bad luck may be,\u00a0The Smokers Club\u00a0saw this problem<\/p>\n and wanted to help out. According to their website, The Smokers Club was born out of a simple<\/p>\n philosophy: smoke weed every day. During one of their smoke sessions, they set out in the<\/p>\n Summer of 2010 with the goal of sharing their love of weed, culture, and music with the world.<\/p>\n While putting one in the air, the idea to create an event where every smokers could celebrate<\/p>\n his and her favorite hobby took shape and The Smokers Club came alive. They first hit the<\/p>\n scene with an event at SXSW in March 2010, hosting an event featuring hip-hop\u2019s then budding<\/p>\n superstars like Wiz Khalifa, Dom Kennedy, Curren$y, Black Hippy, Smoke DZA, Big K.R.I.T., Devin<\/p>\n The Dude, and more. With the venue selling out, it became clear that the fans\u2019 love for good<\/p>\n music and good vibes were in line with The Club\u2019s vision and later that year a 24-city tour kicked<\/p>\n off. Since then, The Smokers Club has evolved into an all-encompassing, leading marijuana<\/p>\n lifestyle brand promoting good times, good weed, and cannabis legalization. Based out of New<\/p>\n York City, The Smokers Club has hubs in Denver, Colorado, Los Angeles, California, and brings<\/p>\n our annual fall tour\u2013and plenty of smoke\u2013to cities throughout America.<\/p>\n So, seeing the homelessness in Denver, these marijuana philanthropist set out around<\/p>\n the streets and began handing out free pot, munchies and water to any homeless people they<\/p>\n passed on the street. One could say these guys are doing the Lord\u2019s work. There are outlets for<\/p>\n the homeless to get food, water, clothing and shelter, but the Smokers Club believes are other<\/p>\n parts of life that these people should also be\u00a0allowed to enjoy. Just because you\u2019re down on<\/p>\n your luck doesn\u2019t mean you should be barred from relaxing a little. Some have even described<\/p>\n the Smokers Club and their new mission as a group of modern-day Mother Teresas.<\/p>\n Follow the link to find out more\u00a0The Smokers Club<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
