​OPTIONAL DONATIONS:
​
NJMA DNA SEQUENCING FUND
DNA has become a critical tool in identifying many look-a-like species that even microscopy cannot identify with certainty. Every year we save a good number of unusual and rare collections from our forays, deposit them in our herbarium at Rutgers University, and would like to have them DNA-barcoded. Please consider making a donation to the DNA Sequencing Fund to help us become better identifiers of fungi.

NJMA GENERAL OPERATING FUND
If you wish, you can also make a donation to the NJMA General Operating Fund. This fund is used to pay for our winter meeting guest lecturers and to help defray other operating costs such as postage and meeting hall rental. 
No amount is too small!
