Website Updates, Email Contact and Upcoming Search

We hope that 2010 is treating you all well so far. If you have been to our website lately you may have noticed some changes that were in place for several days, but at this point, the site is mostly back to normal. The redesign we were working on turned out to be less user friendly then what we already had so in an effort to accommodate our need to post a search, we returned to our old set-up.

One change that remains in place is a new webhosting company and email provider. We were experiencing intermittent problems with our email before the change and have had a few emails from applicants wondering about the status of the search they applied for. Because of this, if you have not received an email from us regarding your status, we encourage you to contact us. Also, while it is not our usual policy to email applicants multiple times to procure additional information, we will be doing this for anyone who applied to the search that ran through November and December of last year.

We will be listing a search in the next few days, likely by Saturday morning, so we encourage you all to check the website then to see if you might be interested in applying. There will be a few changes to the application, just to shorten it a bit, but if you have applied previously, you are welcome to submit the old version.

As always, please feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns.

New Website and Search Coming Soon

We just wanted to let everyone know that we are working on updating our website. We may have the website down for a few days while we make the transition, but we are hoping that will not be necessary. We have noticed a few glitches with our current email system and are hoping to have that worked out with the new website as well. Additionally, a few applicants have experienced problems with our pdf's which should also be resolved. In the upcoming months we hope to be able to break our application down into smaller parts so it is less time consuming for potential donors to apply. Since we do not maintain a donor database, our goal is to have several phases of each search so that applicants fill out information proportional to the Intended Parents interest in her.

We hope to have the website in place with a new search listed within the next two weeks. The updates to the application process will be ongoing so please let us know if you have any suggestions.
