Open Hearts Program

Start Today

Each Snowflake Is Unique... so is each frozen embryo.

 

Embryo sets come to Snowflakes with different histories and in different quantities, each with their own unique background. Regardless of how long they have been frozen or what grade they were initially assigned, all embryos have the right to continue to grow and the ability to develop into full-term, healthy babies.

To provide embryos that may be more difficult to match, for various reasons, the opportunity to be born, Snowflakes Embryo Adoption and Nightlight Christian Adoptions created the Open Hearts Program.

Adoptive families who participate in the Open Hearts Program will be matched with embryo sets that have been waiting for a forever family for a variety of reasons, at a reduced program fee. They are opening their hearts to help frozen babies have an opportunity to be born. They are saying yes to a placing family who has been waiting for a match for their remaining embryos. They are saying yes to recognizing the potential of these frozen embryos.

Eligibility requirements for the Open Hearts Program

We are looking for families who have a heart for adoption and feel a calling to rescue an embryo from frozen storage. Open Hearts adoptive families should be open to receiving embryos regardless of medical history, the age of the embryos, grade or quality assigned, level of communication with the placing family, and other aspects surrounding the creation of the embryos.

Open Hearts adoptive families must be open to traveling to any one of our Preferred Referral Fertility Clinics who will be open to receiving these embryos on your behalf. Contact us to get more information on these clinics, and what travel and transfer preparation would look like for your specific situation.

After reading the Snowflakes Information Packet and our book of FAQs, please contact our Snowflakes Adopting Parent Inquiry Specialists, at 970-578-9700.
