The goal of the Summertime Fundraising Campaign is to raise $50,000 to fund our research, education, and advocacy work that moves us closer to safe, legal, and equitable access to psychedelics in Canada through the second half of 2026 and into 2027.

Fund the Research that Moves Access Forward

Our research grant fund supports Canadian researchers and students doing rigorous, ethical work on psychedelic-assisted therapies. The kind of work that builds the evidence base regulators, clinicians, and the public need to trust this field.

Right now, we’re raising funds for our research grant initiative:

• $10,000 to complete our second round of 2026 grants
• $15,000 to get a head start on 2027’s grants, so researchers aren’t left waiting
• That’s $25,000 total, and every dollar goes to funding studies that wouldn’t happen otherwise.

Fund the Conversations to Move Policy Forward

This past April, MAPS Canada organized and hosted Canada’s first-ever National Dialogue on Access to Psychedelics. It takes real resources to write and disseminate the report that comes out of it, and to plan next year’s dialogue so the momentum doesn’t stall. Our need: $20,000 to fund the report, its distribution, and the planning ahead for 2027.

Fund the Education that Moves Access Forward

Our need: $5,000 to fund our School of Psychedelics, so we can bring education directly to the public and to the people who’ll be making the policies and delivering this care in the years ahead. We have some exciting new courses in the queue for later this year and early next year. Your donation will help bring these courses to the finish line and help the School reach its full potential.
