IMNH WISH LIST
In addition to cash donations, the Idaho Museum of Natural History looks for assistance with tangible items like drawing tablets for summer camps, a van for field trips, drawers for our collection cabinets, and new cabinets for long-term storage of plant specimens in the Ray J. Davis Herbarium, and miscellaneous exhibit supplies. In-kind gifts allow the IMNH to meet critical needs where funding currently does not exist. We welcome your consideration and can provide specific details about each gift. Support of this nature is considered a gift in-kind and is eligible for tax deductions under charitable giving as defined by the IRS.
