Having to rely on an alternative path to parenthood can be overwhelming. You are not alone. Everyday thousands of women discover that they must face their infertility. At Simple Donations, our staff is committed to helping you put an end to your heartache.

Common Concerns of Intended Parents

It is completely normal to feel nervous, scared, and unsure of the choice to pursue egg donation. You may feel anxious and find yourself faced with several questions – Will my child look like me? Will my child love me? How will I be able to bond to my child? Will my friends and family be accepting of my decision?

Becoming a parent is not about blood or genetic links. Regardless of biology or how your child is conceived, accepting the child as your own is the first step to treating the child as your own.

Requirements

At Simple Donations, we do not discriminate against anyone. Regardless of your race, gender, religion, marital status, sexual orientation, or fertility issue, if you have the desire to achieve parenthood, we can help. However, we take the safety of our Egg Donations very seriously and we reserve the right to refuse any potential Intended Parent that does not meet these basic requirements.

Intended Parents must complete a background check and have no criminal history. Intended Parents must also be financially stable, between the ages 21-60, have a stable living situation, be willing to undergo a Psychological Assessment, have the support of your spouse/significant other, and must have thoroughly read and understood the Egg Donation process.

Interaction with Egg Donor

Most Egg Donors are completely anonymous and decide to have no contact with the Intended Parents. There is however, the option to choose a donor who is open to a semi-open or open donation. Regardless of your choice, we will help you negotiate a level of contact and interaction that both you and the Egg Donor are happy with.

Finding an ideal egg donor is easy! Simply register to view donor profiles. At Simple Donations, we encourage you to ask questions and contact us if you have any concerns or need any clarification. Our staff will ensure the entire process is as simple and enjoyable as possible. Visit our website Simple Donations for more information regarding egg donation.
