Jennifer Lombardi and her husband Luca have faced more heartbreak than most couples could imagine. We’ve watched them endure years of miscarriages, failed fertility treatments, and Luca’s battle with lymphoma. Just when they thought they had overcome the worst, Jenn was diagnosed with Stage 3C cervical cancer. Their journey to parenthood has been filled with hope and loss, but their dream of becoming parents has never faded.

After years of medical challenges, IVF gave them one precious embryo—their last chance at a biological child. In September 2025, Jenn’s cancer treatment permanently took away her ability to carry a pregnancy, making gestational surrogacy their only path forward. Surrogacy is a beautiful but costly process, and after years of fertility care, surgeries, and now cancer treatment, their savings are depleted. The costs of a full surrogacy journey can be overwhelming, covering medical care, legal fees, carrier compensation, insurance, and support.

Your support will help Jenn and Luca transfer their remaining embryo, match with a gestational carrier, and complete the medical and legal process needed to finally bring home the child they’ve prayed for. Any donation, big or small, makes a difference. If you’re unable to give, sharing their story helps immensely. You are helping protect a dream that cancer tried to take away. With love and gratitude, Friends & Village of Jenn & Luca Lombardi
