We're excited to be contributing support to this amazing campaign as an org. Two days left and only ~$25k remaining to reach the challenge grant goal by @tferriss and @PaulStamets. Please consider contributing if this work is important to you.

The indigenous peoples of South America are in a centuries-long struggle to reclaim and protect their ancestral territories. Mycologist @PaulStamets and I would like to help kickstart a land purchase campaign for the @AmazonTeamOrg at https://t.co/bf3dRbo6Fj. We will each commit $50,000 (so $100,000 combined) as a challenge grant, which will be activated if others contribute a grand total of $100,000 or more by end of the day on Wednesday, August 9th (23:59 p.m. ET). Our overall goal is $320,000, which will allow the purchase and return of 193 acres in Colombia. Go to https://t.co/bf3dRbo6Fj to learn more and donate. Amazon Conservation Team (ACT) is working to purchase lands in two distinct regions of Colombia and return them to indigenous ownership and environmental stewardship. 👇 The northwest Amazon, where the Amazon meets the Andes, is home to vibrant yagé cultures. These biodiverse rainforests are the cradle of ayahuasca where American ethnobotanist Dr. Richard Evans Schultes was first taught about this revered plant by the region's indigenous peoples in 1941. With the funds we are raising, ACT will be able to purchase and return a 33-acre property that will help expand the existing 44-acre Mamakunapa Iuai Alpa Civil Society Reserve. In northeastern Colombia, where the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta mountains meet the Caribbean coast, ACT is also supporting the purchase and protection of sacred sites with the Kogi. These people are widely regarded as one of the most deeply spiritual in the Western Hemisphere. The Kogi are the descendants of the Pre-Columbian Tayronas. The Tayronas are believed by some to have consumed psilocybin mushrooms for their divination. With part of the $320,000 raised, an additional two other properties, totaling 160 acres, will be purchased there. Unfortunately, both of these areas of cultural and spiritual importance in Colombia are increasingly threatened by deforestation, roadbuilding, and mining. We must act now. Can you donate today, help activate Paul and my $100,000, and help return ancestral territories to indigenous hands? Go to https://t.co/bf3dRbo6Fj to donate.
