The Power of Community: Reflections on Melbourne & Perth 2024

We are truly humbled by the incredible response to our recent events in Melbourne and Perth. These gatherings were more than just opportunities to share information—they were a reminder of the power of community and the importance of the work we do together.

A huge thank you goes out to our speakers, whose insights and expertise provided invaluable guidance for everyone in attendance. And to our attendees, thank you for bringing your hope, your stories, and your willingness to learn. You are the reason these events are so special, and it’s your engagement and energy that make our community truly remarkable. Your stories of hope and determination continue to inspire us all.

Moments That Fuel Our Purpose

These events always energise us at Growing Families, reinforcing our mission and reminding us of why we do what we do: to make complex family building easier for all. The conversations we have, the challenges shared, and the hopes for the future that are expressed at each gathering inspire us to keep pushing forward. We are deeply motivated by the impact we can have on people’s lives, and the energy we receive from these events gives us the strength to continue working towards our vision.

Each time we gather, we feel the weight of the work ahead, but we also feel incredibly hopeful. The surrogacy and egg donation journeys can be daunting, and navigating them can sometimes feel overwhelming. But with each event, it’s clear that we are helping to create a network of support and resources that makes this journey a little easier for everyone.

Capturing the Moments

We were fortunate to share some unforgettable moments at our events in Melbourne and Perth, and we wanted to take a moment to visually reflect on the energy, hope, and connection that filled the rooms. Below are some snapshots of the beautiful faces, meaningful conversations, and inspiring interactions that made these gatherings so special.

Looking Ahead: We’re Not Stopping Yet

While we reflect on the success of Melbourne and Perth, we are already preparing for what’s next. We’re excited to announce that our events are heading to Auckland and Sydney in 2025, and we’re preparing several upcoming webinars to continue providing you with expert insights and guidance on your family-building journey. We’re determined to ensure that no matter where you are in the world, you have access to the support and information you need to make informed decisions about your future.

These events and webinars are just the beginning. Our mission at Growing Families is unwavering, and we’re committed to being there for you every step of the way. Whether you’re just starting to explore surrogacy, or you’re already deep in the process, we want you to know that you don’t have to do this alone. The support of our community, the guidance of our experts, and the resources we provide are all here to make the journey a little easier.

Join Us for the Next Step

We can’t wait to see where the next events take us and to continue working alongside all of you. Stay tuned for more details on the upcoming events in Auckland, Sydney, and our webinars—we’re just getting started!
