How are your donors screened?
1. Donors are initially pre-screened to ensure they meet the Donor Criteria of our program.
2. They are then asked to fill out an extensive donor profile, which includes their detailed social, medical and health history.
3. We interview the Donor to get to know her and discuss her motivations for wanting to donate.
4. We conduct a detailed background screening once the Intended Parents have selected and contracted to work with a donor.
5. Once a donor is chosen and contracted, we proceed with psychological and medical evaluations and testing.

Are your donors always available?
All of our donors are available to view in our online donor database. We mark a donor's profile as "in cycle", "on hold" or "not available" in order to help with your selection process. If a donor is "in cycle" it usually takes 2-3 months to be approved to donate again. A donor is placed "on hold" when a contract is in the process of being issued and signed. A donor will only be confirmed and placed "in cycle" once a signed contract and all necessary payments have been received. If you are interested in someone who is "on hold", please contact us for more information regarding their status and availability.
