Our dear friends, Kristen and Elise Boyd, are about to embark on an extraordinary adventure—they're expecting their first child this July! 

To support them, we are organizing a unique and fun-filled fundraiser—a baby pool fundraiser!

We invite you to place "donation-based bets" on the birthdate, birth time, weight, and height. All bets must be placed by July 15th!

You choose your contribution and no contribution is too small, and every single donation will make a difference. Remember, it's not about the amount you give, but rather the collective impact of our support that will uplift and empower Kristen, Elise, and their growing family.

Here's how to play and support Kris & Elise

1.   To enter and place your bet, visit our Baby Bookie page (https://bit.ly/babyboyd), and place your bet by July 15, 2023. 

2.  Then, to lock in your bet, please send a donation of any below. Only bets with donations will be eligible for the pool pay-out. (Only want to make a donation? No problem - and thank you!). The winner of the baby pool will receive 25% of the pot. The rest will go directly toward supporting Kristen and Elise during this significant time in their lives!

3.  Finally - spread the word far and wide! Share the news of this fundraiser with your friends, family, and colleagues who may also wish to extend their generosity. Let's rally our network, leveraging the power of our incredible community to shower Kristen and Elise with love and financial support during this joyous time.

ABOUT THEIR JOURNEY

-

As you may already know, Kristen and Elise’s pathway to parenthood hasn’t been an easy one. For the past two years, they have been navigating the complexities of In Vitro Fertilization (IVF), a remarkable but draining process. The financial and emotional burden has been significant.

In addition to a long and challenging fertility journey, life has presented some unexpected hurdles for our friends: Last November, Kris was laid off from her job. She seized this opportunity to pursue her passion as a content creator and has been working diligently to establish her own business.

So now they are a family of TWO entrepreneurs - we love to see it!

Then, in a twist of fate, just a few weeks before their eagerly anticipated baby shower, Elise faced a medical emergency that led to an emergency surgery to remove her gall bladder. The additional income she had been working hard to secure for her maternity leave was compromised due to this unforeseen setback.
