WHAT IS A SPERM DONOR?
A sperm donor plays a key role for people beginning their journey to parenthood through assisted reproduction. By choosing to donate, you’re offering the possibility of building a family to individuals or couples who, due to personal or medical reasons, need the support of a donor to take that first step toward having a child.
Growing Generations sperm donors should be comfortable with a Directed Donation, which means there will be some level of contact between you and the intended parents. The extent of this contact is guided by the intended parents’ fertility clinic and may vary based on their specific process and preferences.
