Why Donate
Emotional fulfillment
As an egg donor, you will find reward and satisfaction in knowing that your contribution will have a profound effect on the life of another woman. You will be able to help build a family for that woman when she may not have been able to otherwise. Because of you, a woman may be able to experience the joy of becoming pregnant, giving birth, and breastfeeding. Many of our donors relay to us that the experience of helping a woman to conceive gives them fulfillment and contentment that they have never felt before.
Financial Benefit
Eligible and accepted egg donors into RMA of New York’s ovum donation program will be compensated $8,000 for their time and effort. Accepted egg donors may be able to donate at least 5 times during their lifetime, allowing potential opportunity for an egg donor to be compensated up to $40,000. In addition, a comprehensive medical evaluation will be administered to the egg donor free of charge. Egg Donating can be a greatly
rewarding and earnest way to earn money while fulfilling a generous service by helping a woman achieve her dream of becoming a mother.
Testimonials
Donor –
“I’m always happy to donate. My kids are my life, my world, my everything. Knowing how much I would want help if I had trouble conceiving, it only makes sense to donate and give someone else the opportunity to feel how I feel about my kids”
“I just wanted to say thank you to your and your team that I have met in the last month; everyone was professional, compassionate, and polite and helped the donation process go very smoothly. I would definitely love to be considered to donate again”
Recipient –
"I am a grateful, appreciative, delighted, blessed mother of 5 year old boy/girl twins all due to the competent, experienced and loving hands of the doctors and nurses at RMA of NY. In January of 2002 my husband and I had our first appointment at RMA with Dr. Tanmoy Mukherjee to discuss my being a recipient in their donor egg program. This meeting took place after 3 years of frustrating failed cycles both natural and with donor eggs at another infertility clinic in Manhattan. My husband and I were given a complete work up and in February we started our donor egg cycle. I was pregnant by March and in November at age 45 1/2 I gave birth to two healthy, beautiful babies. They were and will continue to always be our little miracles. Thank you RMA from the bottom of all four of our hearts."
"I had my baby, through egg donation, a few months ago. He is the most beautiful, happy and loved little boy, and I can’t describe how happy he has made me and my husband. I was quite young when I started trying to get pregnant, but for various reasons it remained elusive; after several rounds of IVF I faced the difficult news that without egg donation I would never have a baby. My husband and I had long discussions about it – would it feel like ‘my’ baby if the egg wasn’t mine? But the more I thought about it, the more I knew that it would; that genetics were only a very small part of parenting, and one that really wasn’t so important. What was important was finding a donor – and happily, about a year after we first looked into egg donation, we found one through RMA. Even more happily, the cycle was a success. From the moment I knew I was pregnant, my baby was absolutely mine – I was so excited I couldn’t quite believe it. I loved pregnancy, but nothing could prepare me for the moment of sheer joy when my baby was handed to me. He was perfect, and I immediately fell in love with him. To me, he is as much ‘mine’ as a genetically-linked child would be; I couldn’t love him any more. And yet I know that none of this would have been possible without my donor – and I am more grateful to her than I can begin to describe. Because of her, I have a son – because of her, he is giggling, chatting away to himself and growing stronger every day. We are a family now, and I still sometimes have to pinch myself to remind myself that it’s real."
