Toronto, Ontario / November 22, 2018 – Cannvas MedTech Inc. (“Cannvas” or the “Company”) (CSE: MTEC, Frankfurt: 3CM), a leader in digital cannabis education and a leading business technology company in the cannabis space, and Sistema Toronto, a social development program providing musical and intellectual opportunities to children in vulnerable communities, are pleased to announce the formation of a charitable partnership wherein registered Cannvas.Me users will have the option of converting reward points accumulated on the platform into monetary donations to the non-profit organization.

“As passionate proponents of the power of education, the Cannvas.Me team is thrilled to partner with Sistema Toronto to create opportunities for our users to support the transformation of children’s lives through music education,” said Shawn Moniz, Chief Executive Officer of Cannvas MedTech Inc. “We created Cannvas.Me with the goal of providing free and accessible unbiased education about cannabis, and we’re proud to team with Sistema to further their goal of empowering youth to achieve their potential through ensemble-based music.”

As registered Cannvas.Me users navigate the platform, they can earn points for completing learning modules and leaving reviews on news article and cannabis strains. Points can be exchanged for a catalog of lifestyle rewards including Cannvas merchandise and retail gift cards. Beginning in December, users will be able to exchange points for monetary donations to Sistema Toronto. While the conversion is still being determined, it is expected users will have the option to donate in increments of $5 dollars. Cannvas will present Sistema with a cheque at the end of each year with the total donations collected from users.

“We are delighted by the support Canvas.Me has shown Sistema Toronto,” said Christie Gray, Executive Director of Sistema Toronto. “Programs like ours help at-risk kids stay away from violence, crime, and give them an opportunity to achieve their full potential. We believe in the importance in community programming and we’re so grateful that Canvas.Me has joined in our effort to bring about social change through music and social education.”
