The Mazatec people shared their knowledge of the use of psilocybin with the world. The psychedelic space owes everything to their generosity and altruism.

Historias y Memorias Mazatecas is a project born from the dedication of a Mazatec family to preserve and celebrate their traditions and cultural heritage and it needs our support now. It's time for us to give back.



An indigenous reciprocity project to preserve the cultural heritage of the Mazatec people

Due to urbanization, colonialism and globalization, indigenous cultures are at serious risk of disappearing.

Now more than ever, there's a pressing need to preserve this knowledge and create space to celebrate it.

"Historias y Memorias Mazatecas" (HMM) was conceived as a means to address this need. **HMM is an ethnographic project that aims to preserve the cultural heritage of the Mazatec people.**

Historias y Memorias Mazatecas Archive

**This project contains one of the most comprehensive collections of Mazatec records, textiles, historical artifacts, video and sound recordings gathered by a member of their community.** Among these items are hundreds of unpublished documents, footage and photographs of dozens of Maztec healers **including never-before-seen videos of the life of the renowned curandera, *chojn chijné* (woman of knowledge) María Sabina.**

Historias y Memorias de Mazatecas

The Fungi Foundation is a global organization that works for the Fungi, their habitats, and the people who depend on them.

Launched in 2012, the Fungi Foundation is the first NGO dedicated to the fungi kingdom. Since its inception, it has achieved numerous milestones while dedicating itself to exploring the fungi world in view of increasing knowledge of their diversity, educating about their applications, and recommending public policy for their conservation. As part of our ongoing 3F initiative, the foundation played a key role in enabling Chile to become the first country in the world to include protection of fungi in its environmental legislation. More recently, the foundation proudly announced the Fantastic Fungi Education Curriculum, the world's first mycological set of courses designed for schools.

In short, the Fungi Foundation envisions a healthy planet in which Fungi are recognized, protected, and embraced as the interconnectors of nature; a mission that would be impossible without the essential support of our kind, engaged donors.
