- MPAAGHS Membership Dues - Support the operation of MPAAGHS by becoming a part of our circle of friends who share a passion and respect for African-American genealogy and history, especially that of Virginia's Middle Peninsula and Northern Neck. MPAAGHS membership is $20 per calendar year.
- MPAAGHS Historical Highway Marker Fund - The Virginia Historical Highway Marker program documents facts, persons, events, and places prominently identified with the history of the nation, state, or region. As of 2019, when MPAAGHS undertook a highway marker initiative, only a few hundred (12%) of more than 2600 state markers focused on African Americans. Since that time, MPAAGHS has installed two highway markers and received approval for a marker for the lynching of James Horace Carter in King and Queen County, Virginia. Contributions to the Highway Marker Fund will defray the $3,000 cost of this highway marker.
- MPAAGHS General Fund - Your donation to the MPAAGHS general fund will help to support special projects such as our funeral programs project, transcription projects, speaker honoraria, and various public programs.
