I Give Back
We are often approached by families who have walked the journey of IVF and have expressed their desire to give back. It is an incredible gesture and we are delighted to partner with those who share our mission of making IVF more affordable, accessible and that little bit easier in any way we can.
Our ‘I Give Back’ program started when we were approached by Josh Henshaw and his wife Alice, who had gone through their own fertility journey and wanted to give back. Josh and Alice know first hand the emotional and financial toll fertility treatment can take and wanted to help alleviate some of the burden for others. Josh ran an ultra marathon ahead of World IVF Day 2026 raising funds to help support patients on their fertility journey. Josh’s story has touched and inspired so many and we are sincerely grateful to Josh, Alice and everyone who donated.
There are many wonderful people in the IVF community. Read their stories below.
Helping Another Family Grow
Hilary and Amy are proud mums to three boys, Bowie, Remy and Teddy. Their journey to parenthood began in 2018 and was filled with years of uncertainty before being blessed with their three boys. They proudly share their story and have launched a fundraiser to help others access the fertility treatment they need. Their hope is that every dollar raised brings another family one step closer to growing their own family. If you would like to donate to Amy and Hilary’s fundraiser, please visit their fundraising page.
100 Beanies for 100 Women
Karen knows first hand the courage, patience and quiet strength it takes to keep hoping, keep waiting and keep believing, having been through her own fertility treatment journey. To honor this journey, Karen's mum, Gloria spent three months hand knitting 100 beanies, eight hours a day, seven days a week. Each beanie has been made with love, as a small symbol of warmth, strength and courage, a reminder that no woman on this journey is alone. Karen's gesture has become a symbol of hope and we look forward to sharing these beanies with patients who have welcomed their baby through IVF.
Running for Awareness
Josh Henshaw and his wife Alice, spent many years creating their beautiful family with the help of IVF at a full fee clinic. They experienced the highs and lows of treatment and the financial and emotional struggle so many people go through. At the time of treatment, Josh and Alice were unaware that low cost fertility treatments existed and as such, are now working to raise awareness of low cost clinics like Adora. In July of this year, Josh completed The Guzzler Ultra Marathon in his Adora Fertility running singlet. The money he raised was distributed to current Adora patients to help support their fertility treatment. Josh's dedication was the spark that grew into Adora's I Give Back program.
Getting Involved
If you would like to assist those going through IVF treatment we would love to hear from you. You don’t have to have been through treatment at Adora, nor do you have to have been through IVF, the only prerequisite is your desire to assist others. There are a couple of ways you can do this, which we’ve outlined below. Regardless, we welcome your contribution (and your ideas!) no matter how big or how small.
If you have your own ideas for giving back please do reach out, we’d love to hear from you at info@adorafertility.com.au.
Raising Funds
Through I Give Back, our patients, their loved ones and members of our community have chosen to raise funds to help ease the financial burden for others. Whether it's taking up a challenge, hosting an event or simply setting up a fundraising page, every valuable contribution helps make fertility treatment accessible for those who need it. If you would like to start your own fundraiser to help others access fertility treatment, we'd love to hear from you.
Raising Awareness
Many families who go through IVF are unaware that low cost fertility treatments exist. There is a misconception that IVF is unaffordable and we, at Adora Fertility, are working to change that. We’ve created some Adora Fertility running singlets and we invite you to order some and wear them with pride in your own running or training efforts. Grab a mate, grab a group, grab a team and grab your singlets. Help us raise awareness of high quality, low cost IVF clinics like Adora. If you'd like some Adora running singlets, please email us and we'll send them to you.
A Gift of Kindness
Adora Fertility has partnered with 1000hearts, a global kindness community who exist to make people happier and healthier by sharing kindness in a simple and tangible way. Their hand made pocket hearts are designed to be kept close and squeezed when you need a reminder of love, hope, courage and comfort. Through a network of heartists, many with their own stories, pocket hearts are stitched daily and given to our patients at a time when they need them most.
