Mycopath Recovery Support the research on GoFundMe.

THERE IS MORE THAN ONE WAY TO BEGIN.

Bring what you can.
Help build what comes next.

A contribution. A useful skill. Knowledge of a place. A conversation that reaches the right person. Each can help Mycopath Recovery move from a shared concern toward a focused research effort.

FOUR WAYS TO SUPPORT THE BEGINNING

A mission needs people.

01 / SUPPORT THE FOUNDING FUND

Fund the first practical steps.

The $44,000 goal supports nonprofit formation, independent technical advice, initial research, and a contained trial if feasible. The campaign is published on GoFundMe, where you can review its current status.

Jordan Kristo is the personal organizer and intended recipient. Mycopath is not yet a nonprofit, and contributions to Jordan personally are not tax-deductible charitable gifts.

02 / BRING A USEFUL SKILL

Help shape work worth doing.

Relevant experience could include environmental science, laboratory testing, water treatment, ecological restoration, nonprofit governance, accounting, research communication or data analysis.

Introduce your experience, the kind of support you could offer, and your availability. Make clear whether you are offering volunteer time, a professional service or an introduction.

How to connect

03 / SHARE LOCAL KNOWLEDGE

Help us ask better questions.

A public agency report, established community group, published monitoring dataset or documented environmental concern can help explain what a place needs and what work is already underway.

Start with a location, a link to a public source, and the question you think deserves attention. The 50-place directory is a learning resource; it is not a list of secured Mycopath projects.

04 / SHARE THE MISSION

Start a conversation with purpose.

Tell someone why cleaner water, air and land matter to you. Share the plan with a person who might support research, offer relevant expertise or help connect the initiative with informed local voices.

Use the introduction below to keep the goal and current stage clear. Add your own reason for caring.

BUILD THE RIGHT CONNECTIONS

Useful introductions
can open real possibilities.

The founding team and research relationships are still to be built. An introduction is a starting point for a conversation.

For technical collaboration, describe the subject you know well and how it connects to the proposed environmental research. For community input, include an existing public record or organization we can learn from.

Jordan will need to agree on scope, responsibilities, costs and appropriate permissions before any fieldwork or professional engagement. Current collaboration interests do not represent secured partnerships.

Use the Message button on the GoFundMe page to introduce yourself and how you would like to help.

GIVE SOMEONE A CLEAR FIRST LOOK

An introduction you can share.

Jordan Kristo is raising $44,000 through a personal fundraiser to establish Mycopath Recovery as a nonprofit and begin environmental research in Ohio. The mission is to investigate how fungi, plants and root-zone systems could help improve water, air and land. At the goal, Jordan commits to forming the nonprofit and bringing together a founding team. Explore the plan, the evidence and ways to help.

SUPPORT THAT BUILDS SOMETHING USEFUL

Help the work
earn people’s trust.

Read the proposed budget. Explore the source material. Bring thoughtful questions and relevant experience. A stronger beginning comes from people who care about both the purpose and how the work is done.

The immediate opportunity is to help establish an organization and research capacity. Environmental improvements would follow from methods that are evaluated, appropriate for a particular setting, and put into practice responsibly.
