Brent, American Intended Parent in Sacramento, California, USA

Explain your reasons for wanting a surrogate/donor:

We are ready to grow our family. We both would like our own literal offspring. We want our children to look like us. I am white skin and my partner is brown skin. My partner is an islander. With a Filipina surrogate mother, our children will be mestiso. We cannot create our own children without the help of a surrogate mother. Please help us.

How would you best describe yourself(s):

We are a gay American couple who would love to welcome a baby into our home. I am Caucasian and my partner is Samoan from Hawaii. We are both very familiar with the Philippines and would love to have a Filipina surrogate for our child. We are both loving, caring, God-fearing. We both com from large families. I have nine siblings and my partner has eleven siblings. We were both raised Christian and will pass our religious beliefs to our child. We do not smoke, drink or do drugs. We believe in being actively engaged in our community and taking care of one another. We do not have any children yet but also thinking about adoption.

Use this space to communicate a letter to potential Surrogates/Donors:

Thank you for providing the gift of life to our future child. We would love a son or daughter. With your help, we will be able to fulfill our life dream of raising a family. Right now, we only have our nephews and nieces to share a few moments when they come to visit. We love the sparkle in their eyes and their child-like goodness they share. We know raising children is a lot of work and struggle but we are ready for all the crying, feeding, and cleaning that comes along. We have so much love and patience to share. We will teach them the value of family and importance of trusting in God. We hope to communicate with you soon to bring a baby into our arms.
