420 CENTRAL COMMUNITY BENEFITS, SUSTAINABLE PRACTICES AND LOCAL HIRING PLAN A. Community Benefits 420 Central is committed to ensuring that our organization is a benefit to the Santa Ana community. At our core we are committed to maintaining a high quality, well -administered, respectable cannabis facility that prides itself on fitting in with and enriching the local culture of the City of Santa Ana through various community benefits and local hiring initiatives. As we continue to grow, our dispensary will become more than a store where patients can purchase cannabis. 420 Central's entire existence is based on serving as a benefit to our community and neighbors. We see our service as a community benefit for people in need of a safe environment to obtain prescription cannabis. We, therefore, take our community benefit imperative very seriously. As an active member of the Santa Ana Cannabis Association (SAGA), 420 Central continues to strongly support various community initiatives through SACA, including SACA's developing partnership with the Santa Ana Unified School District to help fund youth diversion and other after- school programs. In addition to our participation in SACA community-based initiatives, 420 Central is also exploring other community initiatives on our own in an effort to make the City of Santa Ana a better place for all of its residents. We believe with a little love, inspiration, and dedicated resources, that we can vastly improve the beauty of our local landscape. (1) Neighborhood Clean -Lip and Graffiti Removal Program One project we are exploring is an ongoing "Neighborhood Clean -Up and Graffiti Removal" program. With the support of local volunteers, organizations with similar goals, and with 420 Central providing resources for litter transport, dumping, and clean-up supplies, we are organizing community clean-up days and graffiti removal projects aimed at removing blight and adding beauty. We understand the ongoing struggle and burden of cleaning up areas where dumping, graffiti, and neglect have created undesirable and unattractive situations. Our clean-up days help to create a sense of pride for the area in which we five and work. (2) Partnership with Minnie Street/Corbin Family Resource Center 420 Central is exploring a partnership with. Santa Ana's two family resource centers, Minnie Street and Corbin Family Resource Centers.
