Those in Colorado might want to rethink the idea of “all donations welcomed.”

Disabled American Veterans volunteer Bob Collette received quite the surprise when he visited a business in Durango and received a different kind of green donation.

KOB 4 reports that Collette was given two quarter-ounce containers of marijuana worth approximately $100.
