Egg Donor Recipients
Egg Donor Recipients
The greatest gift you’ll ever receive.
For Intended Parents
Need a donor AND a surrogate?
Working with Gifted Journeys means that we are by your side on the road towards family – no matter what type of family that is. We understand the path you’ve traveled that led you to us, and therefore we take our responsibility of additional guidance and support very seriously. We know that while for some of you, mourning and acceptance seeking are part of the egg donation process you can still move forward with a renewed sense of hope.
We invite you to take some deep breaths and some time to peruse our egg donor profiles and become familiar with the young women who have chosen to become donors and help you along on this journey where hope becomes life.
Our knowledgeable staff is comprised of women who have worked in the assisted reproductive technology industry for many years and have all been egg donors. Having given the gift ourselves, we can speak first hand to help you understand the process of becoming a recipient parent through egg donation. There are no silly questions and you should never feel embarrassed about asking anything.
FEES
The following fees will help future recipient parents understand what is involved in proceeding with an egg donor cycle with Gifted Journeys. We are also proud to offer reduced rates through the “Gifted Journey Gives Back” program.
Gifted Journeys wants to be able to meet the donor selection preferences of all hopeful parents-to-be. We have created different programs to address these different needs:
Our Regular Program offers a diverse selection of donors to fit your preferences.
Our Select Program offers donors that are in high demand. Most candidates in this program are students or have attained college degrees and have previous donor experience.
Our Exclusive Program offers donors who are more difficult to find, such as athletes, models, and those with higher education.
Feel free to reach out to the Gifted Journeys staff to inquire about our different programs: help@giftedjourneys.com.

Assisted Reproduction for LGBT Families
We understand that in your world, your family isn’t considered alternative. You’re not in ours, either. Gifted Journeys openly welcomes gay or lesbian egg donors, recipient parents, as well as single parents and transgendered families.
When working with us, we assure you that your family is welcome at any time and in any stage of your relationship. Whether you’re married or unmarried matters not to us. Marriage is a choice (whether you choose to be married or can be by law.) We are ardent supporters of marriage equality legislation on both a state and national level. You may have had past experiences with other agencies who weren’t receptive to gay and lesbian egg donation recipients. In many cases, those agencies don’t accept gay and lesbian egg donors. We’re happy to say that is definitely not our philosophy.
So the question remains, do we work with openly gay egg donors? Yes. After all – the desire to give an incredible gift is never dictated by gender preference.
You’ll receive exactly the same resources that any married, heterosexual family would have when working with us. While it seems silly that we would have to point that out, we answer a myriad of questions every day and understand the most important thing: you want a family. That’s what Gifted Journeys is here to help you accomplish, with love, compassion and unprecedented industry expertise. If you need a referral to a reproductive specialist who specializes in working with the LGBT community, we can easily provide a number of referrals.
