I've supported this nonprofit and its founders (Earth and Fire) since its inception in the 1990s. It continues to be the best, most reliable and balanced source of information about psychoactives on the internet. It has just gotten better as the years go by. The founders are intelligent, dedicated and absolutely tireless in their mission, always have been. I couldn't be a stronger supporter.
Erowid Center provides help to illegal drug users and unbiased information to anyone who wants to know more about recreational drugs. I think they are very important since they help minimize deaths and poor life choices.
The unbiased part is very important in my opinion. In the past, programs like DARE have been a complete failure. I think it's because it was taught by cops that only expressed the negatives of drug use. Teens are smart enough to know what's up. By hearing both sides, they are more trusting of the authority figure.
They also keep an internet archive that you should check out some time.
