Why women choose to donate
Meaningful
Supported
Empowering
It’s bigger than compensation.
Donation starts with empathy: the feeling that something you can do may change another person’s whole future.
Compensation is provided for your time, travel, commitment and inconvenience—but the heart of the journey is helping someone who cannot conceive with their own eggs.
A caring team beside you from screening to recovery.
Clear information so every decision remains yours.

✓ Details shared before commitment

Not ready to apply?
Read through the process and come back when you feel ready.
VEDA manages donor profiles confidentially and the donation process is anonymous in South Africa. Intended parents do not receive your identifying contact details.
The retrieval is performed under sedation with no cuts or stitches. Some donors experience temporary cramping afterwards. Your specialist will explain side effects and uncommon risks before consent.
Egg donation is designed not to reduce your future ability to have children. Every donor is individually assessed, monitored and counselled before a cycle begins.
Most donors need approximately 4–6 clinic visits during a cycle, plus screening and the retrieval day. Appointments are explained and planned in advance.
The medical expenses required for the donation cycle are covered. The team will explain exactly what is included before you commit.
Yes. Compensation recognises your time, commitment, travel and inconvenience; it is not payment for eggs. Current details are explained privately during screening.
Your kindness could become someone’s family
Maybe this is your moment to say, “I can help.”
Applying does not commit you to a cycle. It simply starts a confidential conversation with VEDA about whether donation may be right for you.
