The Smash the Fertility Stigma Gala is our “Let’s Talk”

Nobody going through fertility challenges should feel broken or alone, or worry that they can’t afford life changing care.

Our vision is to start a much needed conversation while raising money for people who can’t afford the treatment they need to have a child.

Our goal for this fertility
fundraiser is twofold

01

Increasing access
to fertility treatments

02

Smashing the stigma
around fertility issues

Why Fertility?

Infertility likely affects someone you love and you don’t even know it.

Infertility is everywhere but is not discussed and people you love are likely suffering because of it, alone.

With your support we can change the conversation while increasing access to life changing care.

We want to help.

Infertility affects

adults trying to conceive

Fertility treatments are expensive, and access to the best care is limited.

The average success rate of an IVF treatment is 33% and most need 2 or more treatment cycles to achieve a live birth.

This is out of reach for many Canadians. For those who do start fertility treatment, many have to stop because they can’t afford it.

We want to help.

A single IVF treatment can cost upwards of

$15,000-$20,000

About Modern Miracle Foundation

The Modern Miracle Foundation is a registered Canadian charity started by a family who knows first-hand how difficult and expensive fertility treatments can be.

Our mission is to ease the overwhelming financial burden and make treatment more accessible.

Many people suffering from fertility issues either cannot afford the medical treatment they require to help them conceive or it leaves them financially drained and forced to make difficult choices.

We started Modern Miracle to change this.

Modern Miracle turns generous donations into grants for those struggling to afford fertility treatments, helping ease their financial stress and making fertility treatments more accessible for them.

We don’t believe that financial barriers should stand in the way of building a family.

About our founding gala partner

“Our partnership with Modern Miracle ensures people who dream of having a family have the best possible chance to do so.”
