Affordable Surrogacy Across the U.S. and Canada: The MAPLE Program
The MAPLE Program offers affordable surrogacy with an estimated total program cost of $110,000.
Our unique U.S.–Canada hybrid path to parenthood combines world-class Canadian fertility clinics with U.S.-based surrogates, helping reduce medical costs without compromising the quality of care you receive. The result is a more cost-effective surrogacy journey that remains grounded in the United States from start to finish.
MAPLE Surrogacy Program Overview
Many intended parents want to understand the surrogacy cost before they commit. That number can feel out of reach, and the worry is fair. The MAPLE Program was designed for families who need inexpensive surrogacy options without compromising on medical safety or hands-on support.
You work with the same Giving Tree team that guides every family, from your first call through your baby's arrival. Your embryo transfers happen at established Canadian clinics, which lowers your cost, while your surrogate and delivery stay in the U.S.
How the MAPLE Program Works
The MAPLE Program combines the strengths of two countries so you get quality care at a lower price. Here is how the pieces fit together.
Canadian Clinics for Embryo Transfer
Your embryo transfers take place at established Canadian fertility clinics that perform world-class transfers at reduced fees. This is the main source of your savings.
A U.S.-Based Surrogate
Your surrogate lives in the United States. She is matched and supported through the same screening and matching process we use for every Giving Tree family.
Delivery and Citizenship in the U.S.
Your baby is delivered in the United States, so your child receives U.S. citizenship at birth.
Full Coordination From Our Team
A dedicated Giving Tree team member coordinates your journey. You receive the same comprehensive support offered in our other programs.
How the MAPLE Program Makes Affordable Surrogacy Possible
For most families, the largest and least predictable part of the surrogacy cost is the medical work: the IVF cycle and the embryo transfers. The MAPLE Program lowers that cost by moving your embryo transfers to Canadian fertility clinics. These clinics perform world-class transfers at reduced fees.
Your surrogate is based in the United States, and your baby is delivered here. Nothing about your legal footing or your child's citizenship changes.
Gestational surrogacy cost varies widely between agencies, which makes planning hard. In this kind of journey, your surrogate carries an embryo she is not genetically related to. With the MAPLE Program, the estimated total is around $110,000.
That estimate includes:
-
Full coordination with a dedicated Giving Tree team member
-
All surrogate costs
-
All legal costs
-
Secure escrow costs
The savings come from using Canadian clinics for your embryo transfers, not from reducing your support. For a detailed, line-by-line view, download the MAPLE Program Cost Sheet.
