Reddit wrote: Last week we announced that we would be giving 10% of our 2014 gross ad revenue to support the goals and causes of the entire reddit community. We did this by hosting a vote and allowing our users to vote for any US based charity registered with the IRS.
Every winning charity will receive a donation in the amount of $82,765.95 from reddit.
After +250,000 votes cast on +8,000 charities by 80,000+ voters, we have our top 10 list of charities:
Electronic Frontier Foundation
Planned Parenthood Federation of America
Doctors Without Borders, USA
Erowid Center
Wikimedia Foundation
Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies
NPR
Free Software Foundation
Freedom From Religion Foundation
Tor Project Inc.

I saw this in my email yesterday night from maps  Hopefully they win. Of all the organizations listed i think maps would provide the most benefits from the prize money not just to themselves but to psychedellics & society in general.

It's quite amazing that they're giving 10% away. I mean, it is still a community building effort, they know that this is exactly what makes reddit so popular. It is still a bold step, and i'm surprised, yet happy that MAPS got a part of the money.

Skip the manual, now, where's the master switch?

I saw it today as i was reading on Erowid and saw the banner. This is really great to see that there is recognition and rewards. I think Nexus could use that kind of boost since a lot of excelent hard work has and is done in this community.  ˝What you are is this deep deep thing...and you love to play.˝ - ?

Great to hear this, Erowid and MAPS deserve it! "It permits you to see, more clearly than our perishing mortal eye can see, vistas beyond the horizons of this life, to travel backwards and forwards in time, to enter other planes of existence, even (as the Indians say) to know God." R. Gordon Wasson
