What NIGHT 1 2024 attendees are saying...

Glea Timbol, Registered Nurse, Tripod Fertility

“Attending NIGHT 1 last year was an incredible experience. It was inspiring to connect with patients and other members of the fertility community in such a warm, celebratory atmosphere. It was a refreshing change to interact outside the clinical setting, sharing stories, laughter, and hope. The energy and purpose behind the event made it truly unforgettable.”

Amanda Shuchat, IVF Mom of two

“It’s hard to know how to be there for a friend going through an infertility journey. You want to be there for them, but it often feels like you can’t help but say the wrong thing. Sometimes, there’s nothing to say at all. Sometimes, helping means just being present. Or dancing it all out. I attended NIGHT 1 to show support for my friend, but I ended up having one of the best nights of my year.”

Tanner Kohara, Co-Founder of Twig Fertility

“We had a great time at NIGHT 1 last year. It was so refreshing to be at a fertility event where the focus was purely on having a good time and to have the opportunity to connect with our community in a more organic way.”

Michel Lederman, Supporting A Loved One

“I am still buzzing from the incredible energy of that last year’s NIGHT 1. From the moment you walk in, you can feel the positive vibe radiating throughout the venue. It was a beautiful fusion of fun, philanthropy, importance and community spirit. The atmosphere was electric – the dance floor was packed, everyone was smiling, and the performances were top-notch. It felt like we were all united by a shared mission, and the energy was simply contagious.

“Sometimes in life, we support one another by listening, providing advice, sitting in the mud, giving tough love, or holding each other close through the ups and downs of fertility, and other times, like Night 1, we dance like no one is watching, we scream our hearts out to Whitney Houston, and just be free. Every one, going through a fertility journey, or on their own journey of life, will feel awakened and a beautiful release from this special night. That’s how I felt and I can’t wait for that feeling again soon.”

Dr. Chloe Roumain, REI + Chairwoman and Co-founder of Fertility Friends Foundation

“NIGHT 1 is more than just an event—it’s a celebration of hope, resilience, and community. It’s a night where we come together to support those navigating the challenges of fertility, breaking down barriers and building dreams. The energy, compassion, and generosity we witness during NIGHT 1 are truly inspiring and remind us of the profound impact we can have when we unite for this cause.“
