Getting Started

PLEASE read the all the documents provided and the information on the website before applying.

The Granting Miracles Board of Directors will select applicants who are uninsured for fertility treatment. Grant money is paid directly to the patients fertility clinic for the cost of treatment.

Applications must be submitted by mail. Applications that are received late or that are incomplete will not be reviewed.

We would love to offer grants to every applicant but, unfortunately, not all applicants will receive grants. Grant amounts vary based on needs - up to $15,000.

We also offer a grant “matching” program. Grant applicants may request that Granting Miracles “match” the funds that they have already saved/raised for their upcoming fertility treatment. Once the grant amount is determined – funds are paid directly to the patients fertility clinic for the cost of treatment.

There is a $100 application fee for each application submitted. This fee is NONREFUNDABLE. If you decide to withdraw your application between the time that you submit and the board has made a decision, the foundation will not be able to refund the fee. The application fee is considered a donation and the foundation can provide any paperwork you would need to document the donation. The fee must be submitted with your application and made payable to Granting Miracles via check or money order.

Below is a brief description of the grant process once an application has been submitted:

• The application is received by Granting Miracles on or before the due date.
• The application packet is received and reviewed to ensure that it is complete.
• All applicants receive an email within 7 days that their application has been received
• Applications are reviewed and confirmed that there is a financial need (the applicants insurance does not cover IVF)
• Applications are reviewed by our Board of Directors
• Applications are presented to the entire Board of Directors and final applicants are chosen
• Background checks are conducted on final applicants.
• Once a final decision regarding grant recipient is made, couple is notified that are receiving grants
• Once the grant recipient couple has accepted the grant, we then will notify all other applicants of board decision.
• Please do not contact the foundation during the review process. The review process will take approximately 6 weeks.

Granting Miracles is an all volunteer board. We understand that this is a trying time for infertility patients, but know that we are working diligently to select a grant recipient within a reasonable time frame. We will contact you if we need any additional information.
