Heterosexual Intended Parents

Heterosexual individuals and couples may choose surrogacy and egg donation for a variety of reasons, including: infertility, medical diagnosis such as cancer, or a genetic defect or health condition. Either with the intended mother's own eggs – or donor eggs – and the intended father's sperm – or donor sperm – embryos are created and transferred into a gestational surrogate.

LGBTQIA+ Intended Parents

Promise's founder, Marcus Ellison, a lawyer and gay father of two children through surrogacy, created Promise with the belief that everyone should have the opportunity to become a parent. We work hard to uphold that mission by working with a diverse community of intended parents including individuals who are straight, gay, trans, nonbinary, single, and coupled.
