Choosing an application

Modern Miracle

The general grant is paid to the treating clinic. Published requirements include a valid Canadian health card and an existing clinic or fertility-specialist relationship. Awards must be used within six months and cannot supplement government-funded cycles. Medications and storage are excluded. Follow the current checklist for required documents and eligible expenses.

Pollin x Modern Miracle

The maximum combines up to $8,000 from the fund and up to $2,000 from Pollin. Applicants need a completed Pollin consultation and assessment, valid OHIP coverage, and annual gross household income below $175,000. The award applies to one eligible treatment; medications and government-funded cycles are excluded. See the eligible treatment options and full terms.

Fertility Friends Foundation

The provider lists IVF, donor egg/sperm, and surrogacy grants. Its general program excludes IUI, fertility preservation, medication, and frozen embryo transfer, with a stated exception for the Not My Tummy grant. Applications concern upcoming treatment; government-funded treatment and retrospective reimbursement are excluded. Review the clinical and financial criteria, including exceptions to the infertility-diagnosis requirement.

Generations of Hope

Ask your Regional Fertility Program physician about referral and consult the fund’s instructions. We have not confirmed a current award amount or open application window. This listing is not confirmation that an award is available.

Power of Hope

This is cancer-related fertility-preservation assistance. Published criteria include a participating centre, household income of $50,000 or less, an oncologist’s confirmation, age 40 or younger, Canadian citizenship or permanent residence, and a provincial health card. Further restrictions apply. Ask the clinic about medication assistance and use the official application-request page.

Closed rounds and unconfirmed availability

Bird&Be — 2026 giveaway closed

The official rules set a May 8, 2026 closing date. The Canadian prize included US$3,500 for eligible fertility costs. Canadian residents outside Quebec who had reached the age of majority could enter without a purchase. The 2026 round is historical, not an open September application.

Gift of Parenthood — current terms not confirmed

Consult the official grant portal for application details. We could not verify its current window, Canadian eligibility, award amount, or fees. Check the provider’s rules before applying.

Before you apply

• Check the deadline and save the official terms for your round.
• Confirm that your location, clinic, and planned treatment qualify.
• Ask whether treatment must wait until an award is approved.
• Check whether the application fee is refundable.
• List uncovered expenses, including medication, storage, travel, or transfers.
• Ask whether provincial funding or another grant affects eligibility.
• Plan for an unsuccessful application: eligibility does not guarantee selection.

Other cost support

Private grants, publicly funded cycles, reimbursements, and tax credits work differently. Read our provincial funding guide and tax-credit guide. Use the calculator to organize an estimate, but do not count a discretionary grant as confirmed funding before an award is made.

Ask your clinic about medication assistance. A second treatment cycle alone does not establish eligibility.

Sources and corrections

Official sources are linked beside each program. An explicitly open round, published instructions, and unconfirmed availability are different statuses. The date above records our source check, not an extension of a deadline. Report a correction if a program changes.
