Campaign Story

My name is Kristin, and for twenty years, my wife Liz has been my greatest love and my family. As we approach our anniversary, our deepest dream is to finally share this incredible love with a child. We’ve held this hope close through every chapter of our lives together, and now we’re taking our bravest step forward. Our journey to parenthood has been a quiet story of hope meeting hard realities. After extensive testing, we learned I have only six eggs remaining. My doctor gently explained that using my own eggs would give us less than a 10% chance of a successful pregnancy. That moment was heartbreaking. But it also pointed us toward a path filled with new hope: embryo donation. This incredible gift offers us our very best chance to finally welcome a baby into our arms and our home, to turn our love into our greatest gift. Time is our most tender and pressing challenge. At 45, my window is closing fast. We are fully committed to this path, but the financial hurdle is one we simply cannot clear alone. We need to raise $20,000 to make this possible. This will cover the embryo donation for two embryos ($10,000), the necessary fertility medications and IVF procedures ($5,000), and the vital legal contracts to ensure everything is secure for everyone involved ($5,000). As a couple without much family to lean on for financial support, we are humbly asking for your help. Every single contribution, no matter the size, directly helps bring a child into our waiting home. If you are able, please consider donating to our fundraiser and sharing our story with your community. Your support could change everything for us. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for considering being part of our story. With your help, we can transform our decades of love into a lifetime of parenthood.

    Financial Update

    We appreciate anyone who will donate to our dream. I do want to let everyone know we are not just depending on you to donate. I’m putting in as much as I can to my fundraiser. Also I have put in for financial help in other ways 1 is of course my fundraiser 2 I applied for a loan but I don’t know how that will go because my credit score is not the best but I have been working on it and my score has gone up a lot. and 3 I applied for a grant through the gift of Parenthood. I’m not just leaning on others. I’m doing everything I can to achieve our goal.
