Published on November 20, 2025
At The Cannabar Dispensary, community is at the heart of everything we do. This past Veterans
Day, we
were honored to participate in a special fundraiser that truly made a difference for our local
heroes in
Middletown, New Jersey. Through our raffle baskets, we helped raise over $11,000 for the
cause!
The Canna Bar helped to raise $11,000+
Our contribution to furnishing units, handicap
equipment,
and the village trust fund.
A Community Effort at Mule Barn Tavern
The Veterans Day benefit was hosted by the wonderful team at Mule Barn Tavern on Tuesday, November 11th.
It was a heartwarming gathering dedicated to supporting the newly built Middletown Veteran Village on
Leonardville Road in Belford.
The community came out in full force, participating in raffles and celebrating our local heroes. The
Canna Bar Dispensary was proud to contribute multiple raffle baskets that helped raise over
$11,000
for the cause! What made this event even more special was the incredible generosity of the Mule Barn
Tavern owner, who matched every donation made that evening, effectively doubling the
impact of the community's support.
All proceeds from the event will go directly towards furnishing units, purchasing special handicap
equipment,
and contributing to the trust fund the town has set up for the village, ensuring our veterans have the
comfortable home they deserve.
About the Middletown Veteran Village
The Middletown Veteran Village is more than just a building; it's a beacon of hope and a fresh start for
those who have served our country. Located in the Belford section of Middletown, this newly constructed
facility provides affordable, high-quality housing specifically designed for veterans.

different needs.

and to everyone who came out to support this cause!

Music has the power to transform lives, inspire creativity, and bring communities together. That's why we at Cannabar were thrilled to sponsor the Old Bridge Militia fundraising eventโan incredible organization dedicated to bringing music education into local schools and supporting our children's artistic development.
On September 27th, we joined approximately 300 community members at this special fundraising event, where we had the privilege of contributing $500 to support the Old Bridge Militia's mission of enriching children's lives through music.

About the Old Bridge Militia
The Old Bridge Militia is more than just an organizationโit's a movement with deep roots in music history and a powerful mission to ensure that every child in our community has access to quality music education.
A Legacy Born from Tragedy
The Old Bridge Militia's story is deeply connected to one of rock music's most influential bands. This fundraising event was approved by Metallica and honors the memory of Cliff Burton, the band's original bass player who tragically died in a bus crash in 1986. The foundation was organized and started by Cliff Burton's father, turning personal tragedy into a lasting legacy that supports young musicians.
Old Bridge: The Birthplace of Metallica
Not many people know this important piece of music history: Metallica got their start right here in Old Bridge. The legendary band was founded by Jim Zazula, who owned a record store in nearby East Brunswick. The band's first two albums were actually recorded in Old Bridge, making this community an essential part of heavy metal history.
Today, the Old Bridge Militia continues this musical legacy by bringing music education into schools, providing instruments to students who might not otherwise have access, and creating opportunities for children to experience the transformative power of musicโjust as Cliff Burton did.
The Old Bridge Militia fundraiser brought together community members to support music education
Why Music Education Matters
The Impact: Studies show that music education improves academic performance, builds confidence, enhances social skills, and provides children with a creative outlet for self-expression.
The Challenge: Many schools lack the funding for comprehensive music programs, leaving countless children without access to musical instruments and instruction.
The Solution: Organizations like the Old Bridge Militia work tirelessly to ensure no child misses out on the benefits of music education.
A Community Coming Together
The fundraising event on September 27th was a testament to what can be accomplished when a community comes together for a shared cause. The event brought together families, business owners, educators, and community leadersโall united in support of music education for our children.
The atmosphere was filled with music, laughter, and a shared sense of purpose. Seeing so many community members rally behind this important cause reinforced our belief that investing in our children's education is one of the most meaningful contributions we can make.
