  • An Inclusive Database

    Donors from every ethnicity

    Our donor pool spans a wide range of ethnicities, including Asian, South Asian, Hispanic, Black, Middle Eastern, Caucasian, and mixed heritage. We also include well-represented backgrounds, so you can find a donor who reflects your family's heritage.

  • High Education

    Ivy League & top-tier graduates

    A significant portion of our donors hold degrees from Harvard, Yale, MIT, Stanford, and other leading universities. We also include accomplished athletes, artists, and entrepreneurs — every applicant is rigorously verified behind a comprehensive genetic screen.

  • Proven Results

    Experienced repeat donors

    Many of our donors are proven, with successful prior matches. Repeat donors bring a known medical history, demonstrated commitment, and the reassurance of families who have completed the journey before you.

Step by Step

Your journey to parenthood.

From your first consultation to egg retrieval, we guide you through every step of the way.

01
Schedule a Consultation

Meet with our Intended Parent coordinator to discuss your goals, preferences, and the type of donor you're envisioning for your family.

02
Review Donor Profiles

Browse our curated selection of thoroughly screened donors. Each profile includes photos, background, education, medical history, and personality insights.

Choose the donor who feels right for your family. We'll guide you through the process, handle the matching, and support you every step of the way.

Donor Profiles

What you will see in
every profile.

Ovita has the most detailed profiles in the industry. Every profile is built from verified medical and psychological records, so you can choose with confidence.

  • Childhood and adult photos (multiple angles)
  • Physical description (height, weight, hair, eye color, blood type)
  • Educational background and career history
  • Personality assessment and cognitive profile
  • Hobbies, interests, and values
  • Donor motivation and family plans
  • Medical and psychological history (specialized)

All donors are screened for infectious diseases, genetic conditions, and psychological readiness. Some profiles may have limited availability.

Donation Types

Choose your level of connection.

We offer multiple levels of donor-family contact. The right choice depends on your values, comfort level, and long-term vision.

Anonymous Donation

The donor's identity remains confidential. You receive non-identifying details about appearance, education, medical history, and personality — everything you need to make a confident choice, but no names or direct contact.

Semi-Open Donation

You and the donor may exchange letters, photos, or updates through the agency, without sharing identifying details. Some families maintain this warm distance indefinitely, while others use it as a stepping stone to fuller openness.

Known (Open) Donation

The donor's identity is disclosed. You may meet before the cycle and establish an ongoing relationship afterward. This is the most connected path, and the child may have the option to know or contact the donor later in life.

Not sure which is right for you? Your coordinator will help you explore each option and understand the implications for your family.

Common Questions

Everything you
need to know.

There is no single right answer. Some families prioritize physical resemblance, others education or values, and some look for a specific background. Your coordinator will help you weigh what matters most and guide you toward a donor who aligns with your family's story.

In open and semi-open arrangements, yes — many families choose to meet. In anonymous donations, contact is not exchanged. We will walk you through what each arrangement makes possible before you decide.

Availability can change, and a donor may be selected by another family first. Your coordinator keeps a curated shortlist in progress so there is always a thoughtful path forward.

Most families invest between $100,000 and $150,000 in total, covering donor compensation, agency, legal, medical, and clinic costs. Your coordinator provides a detailed, personalized quote before anything begins.

Success depends on many factors, including the intended parents' age and clinic protocols. Our donors are rigorously screened to maximize the likelihood of a healthy pregnancy, and your clinic will review your individual prospects.

Yes. When possible, many families reserve additional eggs or embryos from the same donor so siblings can share a genetic connection. We recommend discussing this with your coordinator early.

All agreements are finalized by our legal team before any cycle begins, protecting your family and setting clear expectations for everyone involved. Genuine changes of heart are rare and handled with care.

That depends on the arrangement you choose. In known and some semi-open donations, future contact may be possible. In anonymous donations, only non-identifying information may be released when the child reaches adulthood.
