How many families can I help as a donor?
At Born, we have clear, global family limits that apply across countries. Your global family limit is either 25 or 75 families—regardless of where in the world your donations are used.
Most countries have their own limits on how many families a donor may help. However, there is no single, common international limit on the number of families. Therefore, in principle, a donor can help families in several different countries and thus, overall, more families than the limit set by any single country.
At Born, we’ve had global family limits from the very beginning. We’ve done this because we believe in responsible sperm donation and feel it’s our responsibility to establish clear guidelines and provide peace of mind—both for you as a donor and for the families you help create.
