Dear Family and Friends,

My name is Emily, and I am reaching out to share the story of my sister, Brittany, and her husband, Ben. Brittany and Ben are dedicated educators and coaches who have had the privilege of supporting and mentoring many students and athletes over the years. They have always strived to make a positive impact on the lives of others. If you know either one of them personally, you know first hand how true this is. Now, they find themselves in need of support as they embark on a deeply personal journey to start their own family.

For the past four years, I have watched them navigate through infertility which included multiple treatments, procedures, setbacks, and heartaches. Facing every obstacle with incredible strength and resilience, and never giving up on their dream of starting a family. After exhausting other options, they are now turning to in vitro fertilization (IVF), a medical process where an egg is fertilized outside the body and then transferred to the uterus. IVF is both physically and emotionally demanding- not to mention incredibly expensive. Despite their best efforts and savings, they find themselves needing additional assistance to make this dream a reality. It breaks my heart knowing two incredible humans who would be amazing parents are facing this struggle.

This is where we, their friends and family, can step in to help. Your support will go directly towards covering expenses of IVF treatment, including medication, procedures, consultations and any other medical expenses.

If you can contribute, no matter the amount, it would mean the world to them. Every contribution brings them one step closer to growing their family and fulfilling a dream that has been a long time coming. Even if you are unable to donate, sharing this page and keeping them in your thoughts and prayers is just as valuable.

Your generosity, prayers, and positive thoughts are deeply appreciated during this time. Thank you for being a part of their journey and for helping them achieve a dream that means so much to them.

If someone you know wants to make a donation but doesn't have a GoFundMe account, please reach out to me or our mother, Joyce, separately to make donation arrangements.

Let’s help Brittany and Ben bring their miracle baby into the world!

With gratitude,

Emily
