Help our friends Wendy and Sean start a family!

Donation protected
Wendy and Sean fell in love during the summer before their senior year in high school in Santa Clarita, California. From that moment, they loved dreaming about starting a family together.

It was during Sean’s second-to-last year in graduate school, in October of 2013, that they decided it was time to start a family.

After a frustrating year of trying the “conventional” way, they sought help from a fertility clinic. That was when they learned that Wendy had Poly Cystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) and that Sean was diagnosed with low sperm count and poor morphology.

These diagnoses have led them down a winding, bumpy path of procedures, tests, various doctors, treatments - the whole nine yards. They've  been through it all and they've waited long enough. 

As a friend of Sean and Wendy's, I know you want to help them succeed on their journey to becoming parents! Your gift, of any amount, will be so appreciated. 

The couple had kept their infertility journey a secret until very recently. It felt uncomfortable to discuss, and it was painful to have to relive their failures over and over again. They had a change of heart when they realized that maybe they did need those “good vibes” from the people who loved them. Positivity couldn’t hurt.

Show them how much you care with a contribution! And send them some positive vibes in the comments, too! 

In Wendy's words: "I'm going to go through another stimulation. I'm going to go through another retrieval. I can't wait. There's one catch: we need $5,000."

Between student loans and just life expenses in general, they are unable to come up with this money on their own in any sort of timely manner. That's where YOU come in! 

Wendy and Sean will be amazing parents. Let's help them get there!
