Become a Mom With an Open Donor You Can Trust
Starting a family should feel safe, respectful, transparent and clear. If you’re ready to begin with an open donor who values your wellbeing and your future child’s emotional health, you’re in the right place.
ODA donors are screened for high fertility and above average physical and mental health. They share recent STI test results and commit to openness for the child’s future. You choose the donor you feel safe with, and you stay in control of the entire journey.
"Every healthy intended mother deserves a donor experience that is safe, transparent, and grounded in respect for you and your future child.
As someone who is donor-conceived myself, I created this platform to offer the clarity, emotional safety, and human connection my own mother didn’t have access to at the time."
– Daniel, Founder of the Open Donor Association and Donor Conceived Donor

How We Help You Find the Right Donor
A Safe, Trustworthy Path to Building Your Family
Every woman or couple who comes to the Open Donor Association brings a unique dream. Whether you are a single mother by choice, a same-sex couple building your future child together, or a family searching for the right donor after infertility, you deserve a donor journey that feels supportive, respectful, and full of hope.
Choosing a donor is one of the most meaningful decisions of your life. We are here to make that decision feel clear, confident, and safe.
Why the Open Donor Association Is Different
Traditional sperm banks rely on anonymity, limited information, and transactional systems. Families often feel disconnected from the person helping create their child.
We believe in a new model:
• You can get to know the donor’s personality and values
• You can speak or meet before moving forward
• You can plan for future communication for the child
• You receive constant care, updated testing, and humanity
You are not buying genetics.
You are creating your child’s story.
Trusted Donors With Proven Health and Fertility
We ensure that every donor has:
• Excellent semen quality and strong motility
• Regular STI testing and medical clearance
• Healthy lifestyle and positive psychological wellbeing
• No high-risk behaviors (no smoking, no drugs)
• Commitment to openness and ethical donor conduct
When you work with us, you know everything is done right from the start.
Emotional Safety Matters Too
This journey can feel overwhelming. You may have:
• Fear of choosing incorrectly
• Worries about future identity issues
• Pressure around timing and success
• Concerns about misleading donors
• Anxiety about parenting alone or differently
You are not alone.
We walk with you through every question.
Our founder is donor-conceived himself, so he built ODA to protect the emotional wellbeing of future children, intended parents, and donors equally.
A Donor Who Is More Than a Profile
ODA donors are real people with real heart behind why they donate. They believe:
• Children deserve to know their story
• Mothers deserve honesty and respect
• Family can be beautifully diverse
• Support shouldn’t end at conception
When you choose a donor you feel connected to, everything becomes easier — your emotions, your confidence, your future conversations with your child.
