DENVER, Oct. 20, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Mary's Medicinals today announced that its 501(c)(3) foundation, Mary's Foundation for Caring, is a 4-Star Sponsor of Operation Grow4Vets, a national, nonpartisan organization focused on providing Veterans with unique products, programs and services to assist them in living with injuries sustained while protecting our freedom.

Key Facts:
