Our founder, a gay man with a dream of starting his own family, used his personal experiences to shape our mission. Over the years, we’ve supported countless gay, queer, and trans parents, leading to the creation of strategic programs and partnerships that address the unique environmental and cultural needs of the LGBTQIA+ community.
Since 1995, Surrogacy4allNow has been dedicated to helping the LGBTQIA+ community achieve their dreams of parenthood. Founded by John Weltman, a lawyer and proud gay father of two sons born through surrogacy, our organization brings a wealth of experience to the complex journey of surrogacy.
Planning and coordination are crucial in a surrogacy journey, along with navigating legal contracts. At Surrogacy4allNow, we guide intended parents through every step, drawing on our expertise so you can focus on what matters most.
Surrogacy offers LGBTQIA+ individuals and couples a unique path to having biological children. This process involves medical and legal expertise and requires strong emotional support every step of the way.
In IVF, embryos are created in a fertility clinic lab using the biological material from the gay intended parents and a donor. At the clinic, one or two embryos are implanted into a gestational carrier, who then carries the pregnancy to term. In gestational surrogacy, the surrogate has no genetic connection to the child or children she carries.
Finding the right agency is a crucial first step in your surrogacy journey. Many intended parents value an agency that not only understands the surrogacy process but also has experience in supporting the LGBTQIA+ community.
Surrogacy4allNow empathizes with the fears shared by all our intended parents, especially the unique concerns and questions that arise during a surrogacy journey for LGBTQIA+ parents. Here are some common questions we often address as intended parents begin their exploration of surrogacy:
How will my children fare with two dads or two moms?
Will my children be missing out on something because the family dynamic is different?
How and when do I tell my children about their origin story?
How do you support the LGBTQIA+ community during the surrogacy?
It’s crucial to ask these questions upfront to find the agency that’s the best fit for you. Rest assured, the Surrogacy4allNow team has been supporting the LGBTQIA+ community for over 20 years. We can connect you with gay parents who’ve gone through surrogacy, allowing you to hear their personal stories whenever you’re ready.

Intended parent requirements are established to ensure a successful journey for all parties involved. At Surrogacy4allNow, we guide and support you and your surrogate, prioritizing the well-being of your future baby.
Intended parents benefit greatly from a robust support system. Apart from your partner, if applicable, it’s crucial to have friends, family, and community members who are aware of your journey and actively support you.
Parents must adhere to agency guidelines, which encompass meeting age requirements and demonstrating openness to establishing a relationship with their surrogate.
