Does anyone know of any charities that help pay for the cost of fertility treatments?
Answers:
There are several grant programs that may help.
From INCIID the Heart
The InterNational Council for Infertility Information Dissemination (INCIID -- pronounced "inside") announces an ambitious new program -- From INCIID the Heart -- to provide free In Vitro Fertilization to couples in need. INCIID, a non-profit organization, provides information on Infertility and Recurrent Pregnancy Loss (RPL) as well as support to thousands around the world hoping to build a family.

Affording Hope Infertility Foundation, Inc- They do not have their grant program finalized yet. However, this is an organization to monitor. One of biggest hopes for this Foundation is to be able to afford financial grant giving to those couples pursuing infertility treatments who do not have infertility insurance.

Partnership for Families. The Partnership for Families Program at the Cleveland Clinic Fertility Center at Beachwood provides funding for a second cycle of IVF to couples who otherwise could not afford another try. The program was founded by 23 couples whose lives have been affected by infertility. Each recipient of a Partnership for Families Award receives $8,000 worth of IVF medical services. In addition, Serono Pharmaceutical’s Helping Hands Fund provides $2,000 worth of medications to each recipient. I believe you have to be a patient of this clinic- but if you're already in Ohio, you should check it out.

Fertility Assist- New program offering all Serono fertility medications free of charge to eligible patients through Freedom Fertility Pharmacy™ for your third OI or IVF cycle if you have not been successful after the prior two attempts.

The Origins Drug Benefit Program Through this new program, GIVF (The Genetics and IVF Institute- DC area) will be able to provide free Gonadotropin drugs to most Donor Egg, Shared Risk and self-pay IVF patients who begin their cycle(s) by September 15th 2005. The per cycle savings for these drugs is approximately $900. By providing these drugs to our patients at no cost, the cost of prescription drugs for a typical IVF cycle will be reduced by approximately one-third. GIVF is pleased to offer this program to benefit both new and current patients.
