What are the differences between anonymous, semi-anonymous, and known donation?

The matching for each process is the same and you are able to review a redacted profile for the intended parents, as they are able to view yours.

Anonymous Donation: You would not have open contact or communication with the couple or single to whom you agree to donate. The contract would use only first names, and all information is exchanged through our agency. We ask that you keep our agency informed of all changes in your health history and keep your contact information up to date.

Semi-Known Donation: You donate your eggs and limit the amount of information that is shared. For example, you can decide that you don’t want to exchange information but may want to meet in person at our office.

Known Donation: We can set up communication between all parties, and you can carry on the relationship to your agreed upon level of comfort. For example, you can meet and exchange information to be in touch in the future, if necessary, or can form a relationship and have consistent contact. Our social workers will discuss this further and answer any questions in your screening.
