Please share these words with anyone you know who is struggling. Infertility is not uncommon and sometimes it can be hard to find the words to describe how it feels. Many couples and individuals struggle to conceive, and infertility rates have increased across the board. While couples may seek medical help in the form of fertility treatments, these treatments are costly and come with no guarantee of a successful pregnancy. Additionally, adopting or using a surrogate is complicated and expensive.

At The Gift of Parenthood organization, we look forward to a future of more accessible fertility treatment options for those struggling. In the meantime, we aim to help couples and individuals struggling with infertility achieve their dreams of becoming parents through fertility assistance grants ranging from $8,000 to $15,000, available four times a year.
