Help me support Fertility Within Reach!
Dear Friend:
As you may know, I am very open about the difficulty I faced trying to build my family. A person’s fate does not need to be two children out of 10 pregnancies and 14 years to build a family. Because I choose to put a purpose to my pain, I am passionate about helping others to reduce their struggle of infertility.
Fertility Within Reach was created out of a strong sense of empathy, with a heaping dose of logic. Through this charity, I help people gain access to the health care benefits needed to treat their condition. People are taught to advocate for themselves and successfully negotiate with doctors, insurance companies, employers to get the support they need. This organization is doing amazing things for thousands of couples across the U.S. and we need your help.

One of life’s most devastating realizations is the inability to become pregnant or sustain a pregnancy. Infertility is a disease and wreaks havoc on millions and millions of couples across the U.S (1 in 6 couples).
The second most devastating realization comes after this diagnosis: coming to terms with the lack of support and inconsistent information when trying to seek medical care.
Through our work, insurance companies are reversing their denials, people are having babies and premiums are maintaining. We see the successful outcomes and need your support to continue the momentum.
Would you please consider making a tax deductible donation of $10, $20, $50, $100 to help people build their most wanted family?
All my best,
Davina

“We decided to tackle the issue of assisted reproductive technology and insurance companies head on; when no one else would help us, Fertility Within Reach provided a much needed helping hand. Without their plethora of available information, research, support and guidance, we would not have been as prepared as we were when we met with NC political officials and the media in our fight for recognition & awareness of infertility & women’s reproductive issues. Thank you for everything, FWR!”- Jamie & Jacob Pursley, Founders – Robert William Foundation

I feel so lucky to have found the support of this wonderful organization, and I recommend the staff with 110% confidence.” – Sara in Newton, MA
