Hi, my name is Paige Wardle, and I’m raising funds on behalf of my brother, Preston Haynes, and his incredible wife, Carissa. They have been married for 17 years and have spent nearly all of that time dreaming of becoming parents.

Preston and Carissa have walked a long and painful road in their journey to start a family. They’ve faced countless heartbreaks, dashed hopes, and closed doors — but through it all, they’ve held onto love, faith, and the hope that one day they would get the chance to hold a child of their own.

Recently, a beautiful opportunity opened up: they were generously gifted embryos by a family who wanted to help make their dream a reality. These embryos offer Preston and Carissa a real chance to become parents through IVF — something they never thought would be within reach.

The cost for the IVF transfer process, including necessary medical procedures, is approximately $18,000. While they are doing everything they can to prepare financially, they simply can’t do it alone. That’s why I’m reaching out on their behalf — because I know how deeply they would love and cherish a child, and how much they’ve already endured to get to this point.

If you feel moved to support, any donation — big or small — will truly make a difference. You can donate here on GoFundMe, or, if you prefer to avoid fees or donate more directly, you’re welcome to Venmo me (@paigewardle) and I will ensure 100% of your support goes directly to Preston and Carissa.

Every share, prayer, and donation means the world. Thank you for helping us bring their dream of becoming parents to life.
