Bring Hope to Gina and Ali's Family Dream

Hi Everyone,

We’re reaching out with heavy hearts but hopeful spirits on behalf of two incredible people—Gina and Ali—who are on a deeply personal and emotional journey to grow their family.

Gina and Ali have spent the past several years trying to conceive naturally without success. They’ve also gone through two mentally, physically, and emotionally draining rounds of IVF, and tragically experienced a failed transplant as well as a miscarriage along the journey. Despite their heartbreak, they’ve remained resilient, full of hope, and most importantly—full of love.

Now, after much soul-searching and discussions with family and friends, they’ve decided to pursue adoption—a path that feels right in their hearts. But as many of you know, adoption is a lengthy and expensive process, often costing tens of thousands of dollars from start to finish. Additionally, though some parts of the IVF journey were covered by insurance, many office visits, lab tests, medications and other necessary items were not covered -- and this quickly consumed all savings accounts and began accruing on personal credit cards. All the money raised from this fundraiser will go directly to bringing a child into their loving home!

Here’s why we believe they are so deserving of this chance:

Gina and Ali are the kind of people who pour love into everything they do. They consistently attend and host charity events to uplift their community. Their home is always open to foster animals, giving so many forgotten pets a second chance at life. They are the friends who remember your birthday, the neighbors who show up when it matters, and the couple who always give more than they receive.

Every donation—no matter how small—brings them one step closer to holding their future child in their arms. They have so much love to give, and we know they will make the most amazing parents.

If you can’t give at this time, please consider sharing this campaign and sending your love and prayers their way. Your support means the world to them.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and helping to make Gina and Ali’s dream of becoming parents come true.

With love and gratitude,

Laura La Rocca and family

A note from Ali and Gina:

Since we met, we have been building a beautiful life together, along with our incredible family and friends by our side. Over the years, we have worked on creating a safe, loving, happy home for ourselves and our cat and dog babies (foster and permanent)!

Our dream has always been to grow our family with children. Although that road has come with more hurdles than we expected, we have not given up this dream.

To us, being good parents means nourishing a child's needs and dreams, giving them the best opportunity they can to have a wonderful life, and knowing that we can always support them with unconditional love, stability, and safety. We are ready and prepared to love and protect our children no matter the obstacles life brings them. While our dream of a child lives and plays in our heads non-stop, the child in our mind's eye is not made of a specific mold.

We are ready and completely committed to give all we have, physically, mentally, emotionally, intellectually, and communally - to our child, no matter their race, gender, sexual orientation, or any part of their background prior to entering their new home with us. Their dreams will be our dreams, and everything we have to give will be theirs. We are also gifted with an absolutely incredible and supportive community of friends and family that we know will love and support our child throughout their entire life.

Whether you are able to help by donating, sharing our page, or keeping our journey in your thoughts, we are filled with gratitude for your help and time.

Love,

Ali and Gina ( plus Sarge, Rose, Taco, Mozzie, Katniss & Penelope)
