Small-Town Couple Hoping to Grow Our Family Through IVF

After 6 Years of Trying, We’re Asking for a Little Help from Our Community

Hi everyone,

We’re Haley and J.T. Painter, a couple from a small town where everyone knows each other — where kindness, support, and community mean everything. It’s not easy for us to ask for help, but we’ve reached a point in our journey where we’re putting our hope in the hands of others.

For the past six years, we’ve been trying to start a family. Becoming parents is something we’ve dreamed of for so long. We’ve gone through multiple IUI cycles, faced endless doctor visits, tears, and tough conversations — but nothing has worked. Our doctors now tell us that IVF is our best and likely only option to finally have the baby we’ve been longing for.

IVF gives us real hope — but it also comes with a cost we simply can’t manage on our own. Like many families, our insurance doesn’t cover the majority of fertility treatments, and living in a small town means limited access to resources. That’s why we’re reaching out to our extended family, friends, neighbors, and even kind strangers who might be moved by our story.

If you’re able to give — no matter how small — please know it would mean the world to us. Your donation will go directly toward IVF treatment and all the associated medical costs. And if you’re not in a place to give financially, we would be just as grateful if you could share our story and help us spread the word.

We’ve spent six years waiting for our miracle, and with your support, we believe it’s finally within reach.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts,

Haley and J.T. Painter
