White text reads: "As someone living with an inherited degenerative eye condition, I cannot begin to stress the importance and meaning of research in this field. I've been living with rod-cone dystrophy since I was 8 and my vision has slowly declined since then. Research in this field provides hope and means that potentially one day I won't have to struggle anymore. Any form of treatment whether it restores vision or stops the progression of sight loss is wanted and most definitely needed." Below this is the Big Give logo.

We are all about people making the best choices for themselves when it comes to the how and who in embryo donation, however, there are some important considerations: 🔸Embryo quality: different embryos may have different chances of success. 🔸Desired family size of recipient: recipients interested in a larger family may request a higher number of embryos. 🔸Managing relationships: how many different recipients feels comfortable for a donor. We help our donors understand their options, the various implications of those choices, and the differences between a sequential donation and dividing larger batches of embryos into different cohorts. We know it can get a little complicated, but that’s what we’re here for!
