Campaign Story

Hello friends, family, and kind supporters,

We are Gerald and Rachel Auker, and we’re reaching out with hope and vulnerability to share our story. For the past three years, we’ve been on a journey to become parents—a dream that has proven to be more challenging than we ever imagined.

Our path has been filled with tests and trials, both emotional and financial. Last year, we invested over $8,000 in medical testing, only to discover further complications that require additional attention and potential surgery. This news comes at a time when our resources are already stretched thin, having recently celebrated our marriage and the start of our life together.

We believe in the power of community and the kindness of others, which is why we’re turning to you. Every contribution, no matter how small, brings us a step closer to realizing our dream of holding our child in our arms.

We promise that any funds not used for our fertility journey will be passed forward to another couple in need, continuing the cycle of generosity.

From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you for any support you can offer. Your help not only brings us hope but also strengthens our belief in the goodness of people.

With gratitude, Gerald and Rachel Auker
