Paying tribute to cannabis enthusiasts' favorite time (4:20) the auction will also end on April 20, at 4:20 PM.

The money raised from the cannabis-themed license plates will go directly to the Colorado Disability Funding Committee.

The profits will then be used and will be used to "fund grants for disability application assistance as well as new and innovative programs increasing quality of life and independence of Coloradans with disabilities."

“Last year’s cannabis-themed license plate auction raised over $45,000, which supported Colorado’s disability community. This is a fantastic opportunity to provide grant funding to not-for-profit and for-profit organizations that serve people with disabilities. I’m thrilled to continue to support the efforts of the Colorado Disability Funding Committee,” said Lt. Governor Dianne Primavera.
