Prairie Cannabis Raises Funds for Mastectomy Tattoos
In a remarkable showcase of community spirit, Prairie Cannabis has successfully concluded its Breast Cancer Awareness Month fundraiser, ultimately raising enough funds to fully sponsor four post-mastectomy tattoos for breast cancer survivors. This initiative, which ran from October 1–19, united customers, local partners, and community members in a concerted effort to uplift and empower those affected by breast cancer.
The culmination of this three-week campaign was highlighted by a Flash Tattoo Event on October 17, where world-renowned tattoo artist David Allen offered exclusive flash tattoos right above the Prairie Cannabis South Loop dispensary. Each tattoo was priced affordably at $300, with all proceeds going directly into the Tattoo Fund geared towards helping survivors on Allen's waiting list. This initiative embodied the essence of community support, as donations poured in from customers and brand partners alike.
A representative from Prairie Cannabis shared, "Seeing our community come together for this cause was powerful. These tattoos are more than just art; they serve as symbols of healing and self-empowerment. We feel honored to contribute to the transformation of four incredible survivors."
David Allen, a tattoo artist based in Chicago and known internationally, is famous for his specialized work in creating custom tattoos that cover mastectomy scars. Allen's artistry extends beyond mere cosmetic covering; it serves a vital role in helping survivors reclaim ownership of their bodies following surgery. His collaboration with Prairie Cannabis is a testament to their shared commitment to healing, creativity, and positive community impact.
"David's work brings hope and confidence to survivors in a deeply personal way," the spokesperson added. "Being part of this mission in our home city of Chicago was truly a privilege."
