What Known Donation Really Means💖

Known donation is rooted in openness, choice, and empowerment for everyone involved.

It allows you and the intended parents to decide together what level of connection feels right… both now and in the future.

Whether that connection includes messages, updates, or simply understanding each other’s story, Her Helping Habit supports relationships that are thoughtful, respectful, and genuinely grounded🫱🏻‍🫲🏽

At HHH, our belief in known egg donation is rooted in connection💖 not just between donor and intended parents, but for the donor-conceived child at the heart of it all.

Known donation creates space for openness, identity, and access to information that can be deeply meaningful as children grow. It prioritizes honesty, choice, and the understanding that this journey doesn’t end at birth… it lasts a lifetime.

We support pathways that honour relationships, prioritize transparency, and centre the future emotional well-being of donor-conceived children🧑‍🧑‍🧒

This is why we do what we do💖

Reading words like this reminds us that care, presence, and compassion truly matter. Knowing our donor felt informed, supported, and safe throughout their egg donation journey is everything to us.

Our coordinators don’t just manage logistics… they show up, answer all your questions, travel alongside you when needed, and hold space through every step. That level of trust is something we never take lightly.

To our donors who choose to walk this path with us: we are endlessly grateful.
And to our team, this is the impact you make every single day.

Thinking about egg donation and wondering what real support looks like? We’re always here to talk.

One of the most overlooked benefits of egg donation?✨
A deeper understanding of your own reproductive health

When you choose to become an egg donor, you’re not only supporting someone’s path to parenthood, you also receive meaningful insight into your own body along the way.

Genetic Testing:
Learn about inherited conditions you may carry (even the silent ones) giving you a clearer picture for future family planning

Hormone Analysis:
Understand your hormonal health, including markers like AMH (anti-Müllerian hormone), which reflects your ovarian reserve

Fertility Assessment:
You’ll receive a professional evaluation of your reproductive health, something most people only get if they struggle to conceive.

Knowledge is empowering💖 and egg donation offers a unique chance to learn more about your health while making a life-changing impact.

Egg donation shouldn’t feel disconnected or distant, it’s a human experience that shapes real families and real futures💖

At HHH, we choose the known donor model because it honours everyone involved: the donor, the intended parents, and the donor-conceived child. Children deserve to know where they come from… their story, their roots, their biological origin.

Egg banks and anonymous donation can feel impersonal… and that’s the opposite of what we stand for. Our community is built on real stories, real support, and real connection🫱🏻‍🫲🏽

That’s why we prioritize making connections and a meet and greet call before anyone commits. No mystery. No closed doors. Just people helping people, with honesty and heart.
