Campaign Story

The difficulty of IVF or any fertilty issue is the hope and the shattered hope, the dream that it might happen this time and then it doesn’t happen. IVF is the most untalked about topic but the waitlists for the clinics and the overly full waiting rooms fill that silence. 1 in 8 families are affected by this and many choose to struggle quietly. Insurance companies put limits and price tags on these procedures that are hardly feasible for people let alone when their treatment isn’t successful. I am organizing this fundraiser to help one of my closest friends Amy, Unfortunately with a price tag of $13,000 for additional testing needed it is infeasible after already spending $50,000 and exhausting all insurance benefits.  This may not be everyone’s story, but this is her story and I’m hoping I can find people to join me as part of her puzzle. With this I am doing a puzzle fundraiser, and here’s how it works.
1. I have a 1000 piece puzzle.
2. I am “selling” each piece for $10. You can choose to buy 1,2, 3, or 10!
3. Once you purchase a piece, I will write your name on the back of the puzzle piece(s).
4. Once every single piece has been “sold”, I will put the puzzle together. It will hang in her home as a physical reminder of everyone who supported her. Not only will it serve as a reminder but she will also be able to share it with her future baby. To be able to show them how wanted, loved, and prayed for they were.
It would mean nothing more to me to be able to help her as she is the first one to always help others.
