Why Donate to Erowid Center?

Erowid Center is a small nonprofit that serves information to 16 million people a year. We have costs like any other large website: servers, power, office space, programs, and staff. Please help keep it online and ad-free with a donation!The issues surrounding the use of psychoactive drugs are complex. Prohibition discourages the spread of accurate information in favor of "Just Say No" rhetoric. But prohibition has failed and we need to move on to education. Information sources need to prioritize accuracy rather than maintaining politically driven anti-drug messages. Especially during Pandemic 2020, harm reduction has lost attention. Opioid deaths are up and a lot of psychedelic use has moved to private locations instead of festivals where there might be onsite drug checking. Donations are down, need is up.Erowid Center provides free, balanced, reliable information about psychoactive plants and drugs. We don't convince users to abstain. We provide the information necessary for people to make their own rational choices.
