Infertility Inner Circle presents: Walk of Hope for World IVF Day

WALK OF HOPE

In communities across America, infertility warriors are gathering people together to make a difference and to show that no one should have to go through infertility alone. Walk participants share an incredible experience, exchange stories and take pride in their efforts to make a difference in the lives of the 1 in 6 couples diagnosed with infertility.

RESOLVE’s mission—to support, educate, and advocate for everyone struggling to build their family. That’s why the Walk of Hope is so special. It’s not just a fundraiser. It’s a lifeline. It’s a reminder that we are not alone. That there is power in numbers. And that our stories—your stories—are worthy of being heard.

As we get ready to hit the pavement, I invite you to walk with purpose. Walk for the one in six. Walk for the people still in the waiting rooms. Walk for the ones who stopped trying. Walk for the children who are here, and the ones we hope will come.

Together, step by step, we are changing the conversation. We’re breaking stigma. We’re raising awareness. And we are absolutely making a difference. Please wear orange, as it is the color for infertility awareness.

After the Walk of Hope, we’ll gather at for light bites, drinks, and meaningful connection. You'll also have the rare opportunity to meet Elizabeth Carr—the first baby born through IVF in the U.S.—and hear a bit of her remarkable story.

Thank you to our sponsors for helping us bring this beautiful event to life: Mill City Event Spaces, Mandell's Ph*rm*cy, Cycle Clarity, CCRM Minneapolis, and Realtor Annamarie Mcdonald.

“The Walk of Hope isn’t just about putting one foot in front of

the other—it’s about standing together for the millions of

people who are still fighting for the chance to build a family. As

the first IVF baby born in the U.S., I walk to honor how far

we’ve come—and to push for a future where access to fertility

care isn’t a privilege, it’s a right.”

— Elizabeth Carr, IVF advocate and first U.S. IVF baby

The Infertility Inner Circle is a community for those enduring the pain of infertility to come together in connection, understanding, and support. This is more than just a group—it’s a refuge, a place where your story is met with compassion, where your grief is honored, and where hope is gently nurtured, even on the hardest days.

Whether you’re in the midst of treatments, grieving loss, or simply trying to find your footing in a world that doesn’t always understand, you are welcome here. Together, we’ll share our journeys, hold space for one another, and remind each other that even in the darkest moments, we are not alone. Let’s walk this path side by side—because no one should have to face infertility in isolation.

Join The Infertility Inner Circle private Facebook group to stay connected to those you meet along the way.
