The Sorenson Molecular Genealogy Foundation is actively collecting DNA samples and related genealogies from different peoples around the world.

From the prairies of Canada to the highlands of Peru, from the jungles of Africa to the deserts of Asia, from the Far East to the Pacific Islands, SMGF has collected more DNA samples with corresponding genealogies than any other DNA project.

In many countries, we rely on assistance from local genealogists, family historians, geneticists, anthropologists, indigenous tribes, family associations, and individuals.

If you are interested in assisting in collections outside the United States, please Contact Us for more information.

If you live outside the United States, you may also Request a Participation Kit. However, you will be required to pay the return postage to the United States.
