Four years ago, Alexandra and I weren't trying to start a nonprofit. We were trying to become parents. After Alexandra's battle with breast cancer, surrogacy became our path to growing our family, and thanks to help from friends and family, we were able to walk it. We know how rare that kind of support is. What surprised us was how alone the road could still feel. The only real help we found along the way was a local group of people going through the same thing. Grateful as we were to make it through, we kept thinking about everyone who wouldn't. Then our daughter arrived. And we knew we wanted to give back our money, our time, all of it. So we went looking for an organization funding surrogacy the way it actually needed to be funded: real grants, big enough to realistically get a family across the finish line. The number in our heads was $100,000. Nothing close to it existed. So we built it.
