In July 2020, MAPS raised $5,612,809 in donations and pledges from over 2,100 supporters. Of that amount, $4.94 million was pledged toward our $30 million Capstone Campaign to complete Phase 3 and make MDMA a medicine.
Since the $10 million challenge launched on June 12, we’ve already raised over $6.876 million from over 3,500 donors. We extend a special thanks to the supporters listed under Phase 3 (Capstone Challenge) who have already pledged $1000 or more towards the $10 million challenge. Visit maps.org/capstone for more information.
Support in July also included $255,332 for general support, $300,815 for MDMA related projects, $220,000 for BIPOC Health Equity, $15,000 for education projects, $113 for the Zendo Project, and $250 for ibogaine research. An additional $49,717 was raised by organizations that MAPS fiscally sponsors including ICEERS ($25,065), From Shock to Awe ($15,000), Somatic Center Portland ($5,000), the Bay Area Healers Resilience Fund ($3,370), Ceremony Health ($1,200) MAPS Canada ($30), Cosmic Sister ($20), Ibogaine Stories ($10), Ayahuasca Foundation ($10), Bluelight ($10), and Kaphi ($2).
The positive outcome of the interim analysis in March 2020 indicates that with sufficient funding, MAPS has an excellent chance of generating additional promising safety and efficacy data and potentially receiving FDA approval for MDMA-assisted psychotherapy for PTSD by the end of 2022.

MAPS relies on the generosity of individual donors to achieve its mission. Psychedelic science is again being conducted under federal guidelines, but no funding for psychedelic psychotherapy research is yet available from governments or major foundations.
Together, we can legalize psychedelic medicine.
