The Shulgin Foundation honors the revolutionary legacy of Ann and Sasha Shulgin while building a vibrant future for psychedelic science, healing, and community.

From an unassuming 200-square-foot lab in Lafayette, California, Sasha Shulgin created over 150 novel psychedelic compounds, including MDMA, while Ann pioneered therapeutic frameworks that continue to guide modern psychedelic therapy. Their historic Farm—a gathering place for four decades of psychedelic research and community—stands as both a monument and a living laboratory.

Today, the Foundation is preserving this irreplaceable heritage site while fostering a global community dedicated to scientific discovery, therapeutic advancement, and spiritual exploration. Through educational programs, archival preservation, and community gatherings, we are carrying forward the Shulgins' vision of responsible inquiry and compassionate care.

Your tax-deductible donation supports:

  • Preserving the historic Shulgin Farm property
  • Creating accessible psychedelic education
  • Archiving invaluable research materials
  • Building community across generations of researchers and healers

Join us in honoring the past while creating the future of psychedelic science and healing.
