Discover why we have become a leader in the egg donation industry. Read all about the Everie experience from our egg donors and recipient parents.
“My husband and I were both hoping to eventually be bio dads so that our children had a genetic link via our egg donor (their bio mom.) The most important thing was that we were looking for an egg donor who had a blend of our ethnicities. Aside from that, we were looking for an egg donor who had a healthy family background and no history of mental illness. We wanted an egg donor who would be open to contact with our children in the future, if it was something that they wanted.”

“My last two donations were fully known to the same set of intended parents, I was able to meet my IPs in person and I felt a connection that would last a lifetime. I felt nothing but gratitude for my IP’s after hearing their journey, I can’t wait to hear updates on a life that they’ve dreamt of. ”

“I prefer the idea of a known or a semi-known donation with a strong preference for known... And part of the reason that was important for me, is because…my mother passed away when I was very young. And there were questions that I had about my biology throughout my life to this very day that literally nobody could answer for me... It was tough to grow up with a biological parent, and yet have no sense of how their biology actually impacted me. And I didn't want that for my children. I wanted them to be able to reach out if they had a question about something, or if something changed in terms of the donor's health status, something that could be passed along genetically, so that she could call us and say, "Hey, this is what's going on.”

"Parents are the guardians of their children's history. It's up to us to tell our children that story. This story is theirs, not mine. I feel it's my duty to tell them how they came to life. And the 1st gift I could give them is to make them able to know everything! …From this journey, the question of choosing a known or unknown donation became an obvious one. …Our children are now 8 and 4 years old. We have just returned from a wonderful trip to the US where we met our donor again, almost 10 years after the egg donation. I was very happy that my children could better understand their story. Our donor is incredible. I also realized how much easier it was for her to get to know us, to know what we were becoming, rather than being in the dark. "
