Making Maurelli

Hello! We are a loving couple from New York State, whose hearts have always yearned for the joys of fatherhood. Having been together for over a decade, we've achieved remarkable milestones: conquering education, securing our dream jobs, purchasing our home, adopting our dogs/cat, and celebrating our love with marriage in 2019. Now, we stand on the precipice of the next chapter in our lives - embracing the gift of becoming dads.

We successfully created embryos, however, our path to parenthood has been fraught with financial challenges due to the exorbitant expenses associated with fertility treatments like surrogacy and in vitro fertilization (IVF). Despite both of us working tirelessly, the overwhelming burden of these costs totaling approximately 180K and climbing is proving to be an insurmountable obstacle.

As a same-sex male couple, we face additional financial hurdles that hinder our dreams of starting a family. While some insurance plans cover fertility treatments for heterosexual couples struggling with infertility, same-sex male couples like us are often left without any coverage options.

That's why we reach out to you, our compassionate and generous family, friends and community, to help us fulfill our dream of becoming dads. Your generous donations will ease the immense financial strain and pave the way for us to embrace the joy of fatherhood.

We firmly believe that every couple, regardless of their sexual orientation, deserves an equal opportunity to experience the profound happiness of raising a child. With your support, we can start our family, continue advocating for change and rally for insurance coverage that includes fertility treatments for same-sex couples seeking surrogacy or IVF. Together, let's create a future where all loving families can cherish the bond of parenthood without sacrificing their financial stability.

Your contribution, no matter how big or small, will make a significant difference!

From the bottom of our hearts, we extend our sincerest gratitude for your support. Your kindness will help turn our dream of starting a family into a beautiful reality.

With love and appreciation,

Jack & Kyle Maurelli
