Mission and Program Overview
Mission
To ease the financial burden of infertility after cancer for young adult cancer survivors attempting to preserve fertility prior to treatment or start a family after treatment.
Worth the Wait provides financial assistance for young adult cancer survivors who want to preserve fertility i.e. egg embryo or sperm freezing prior to treatment or who need to start a family through fertility treatment i.e. IUI IVF surrogacy or adoption and do not have insurance coverage that covers the full cost. We're based in Columbus Ohio but will fund qualified individuals in other states too.
