How we'll use the funds: This grant would give us the opportunity to move forward with IVF without the financial burden standing between us and becoming parents. We have already gone through so much to get to this point, and because I no longer have fallopian tubes, IVF is our only path to having a biological child. Receiving this grant would mean more than financial assistance—it would give us hope and help turn our dream of becoming parents into a possibility. Procedures , retrieval , medication and any further testing we need.
