Support Our Work

Keep this work free, forever.

DiscoverFamily.net is a 501(c)3 non-profit. Every search we do is free. Your contribution helps us keep it that way, and helps us reach more people who need answers.

Where your gift goes

Every dollar finds a family.

Our Search Angels donate their time. Donations to DiscoverFamily.net cover the operational costs that keep our work going:

  • DNA test kits for adoptees who can't afford one — the majority of donations go directly toward putting a kit in the hands of someone who needs it most
  • DNA database subscriptions that our Angels use across multiple platforms
  • Genealogy research tools including Ancestry.com Pro Tools and other professional resources
  • Public records access through paid newspaper archives and document services
  • Website and infrastructure that keeps this service accessible to anyone who needs it
  • Outreach so more people who are searching can find us

We are an all-volunteer organization. Every dollar you give goes directly toward the work. There are no salaries, no fundraising firms, no overhead beyond what's essential to keep the searches happening.
