Campaign Story

Hi, we’re Nykki and Cory. Since saying “I do” in 2019, we’ve held a quiet dream close to our hearts—to become parents. We’ve walked hand-in-hand through doctor’s offices, tried rounds of Clomid and Letrozole, and even traveled to Ohio for an IUI, only to be told we were “perfect candidates for IVF.” At the time, those words felt like both a door opening and a lock we couldn’t quite turn. It was heartbreaking, but we held onto hope.

We’ve tried everything we could—even tracking with Kegg for the past year—but nothing has brought us the baby we so deeply long for. Now, as we approach 35 and 40, we feel time gently urging us forward. We want to be young, present, and full of energy for our future child—to run in the yard, read bedtime stories, and give them the joyful childhood they deserve.

We recently moved back to Pennsylvania and bought our first home, complete with a little room we hope will one day be a nursery. We’re now working with Shady Grove Fertility to pursue IVF, but the financial weight is heavy. After years of treatments and trying, our savings are stretched thin. Each appointment, medication, and procedure adds up, and we can’t do this alone.

We’re humbly asking for your support. Every donation, no matter the size, brings us one step closer to holding our baby in our arms. Please consider helping us write the next chapter of our story—one we’ve been dreaming of for years. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for being part of our journey. With your help, we believe our family is just within reach.
