The challenge
AROYA and its partners wanted to draw attention to people still imprisoned for cannabis possession as legal markets expanded.
The idea
Each pack used a weight associated with an imprisoned person’s case and told that person’s story. Proceeds supported the Last Prisoner Project’s legal work, while an open brand system allowed participating businesses to join the initiative.
