Committed to growing families and communities

Circle Surrogacy was founded on the belief that everyone should have the opportunity to become a parent. Everything we do is rooted in this principle, which is why we are committed to providing assistance to communities of intended parents to help their dreams of parenthood a reality.

 Making parenthood possible in the LGBTQ+ community

Making parenthood possible in the LGBTQ+ community

Founded by a gay dad through surrogacy, Circle Surrogacy & Egg Donation has been helping the LGBTQ+ community become parents for 25 years. This community faces biological and social challenges that can make an expensive and complex process even more so. Because of that, the Circle team partners closely with LGBTQ+ organizations to dedicate their time and expertise to help build families within the community.
