Carla Higdon
1963 – 2006

Carla was MAPS’ third employee, working for MAPS from 1995-2001. She was
a courageous woman with a warm and powerful spirit, and was a loving and
compassionate friend. It was Carla who first conceived of honoring the work
of women in entheogen research, resulting in the creation of MAPS’ Women’s
Entheogen Fund (WEF). Donations in Carla’s honor can be made to WEF.

Lyn Ehrnstein
1940 – 2002

Lyn dedicated the last half of his life to the study of consciousness
through psychedelics and other spiritual techniques which he felt were the
key to surviving and thriving on the Earth. He is seen here with his two
lifemates, Phyllis (deceased) and Ann, who shared his journey with him.
In December 2005, MAPS received a bequest of over $35,000 from the estate
of Lyn Ehrnstein for MDMA psychotherapy research, in addition to
a previous bequest of $12,000 in 2004.
