Washington, D.C. — In support of the Savannah Fund, which has raised more than $142,000 to support families struggling with infertility, the Cade Foundation will host the annual Flights for Savannah Wine Tasting and Silent Auction on Sunday, April 28, 2019, at the Winery at Bull Run, Centreville, VA. SGF physicians, staff, referring physicians, and current and former patients are invited to celebrate the strength and courage it takes to overcome infertility, and to raise funds in support of the Savannah Grant.
The Savannah Grant, which provides up to $10,000 for fertility treatment at SGF, is a Cade Foundation Family Building Grant specifically designated for an SGF patient who is pursuing IVF, in honor of Savannah Caroline Pereira, an SGF baby who tragically passed in March 2010. All SGF patients, including those who plan to use donor eggs and/or a gestational carrier, are eligible to receive the Savannah Grant.
“Annual Cade Foundation fundraising events, such as Flights for Savannah, raise money for grants that provide financial assistance to deserving, hopeful couples who are struggling to conceive. It’s an honor for SGF to be a part of such an event that supports this cause,” said Jason Bromer, M.D., of Shady Grove Fertility’s Frederick and Hagerstown, MD offices.
Purchase tickets to Flights for Savannah or make a donation to support the Savannah Fund, which has supported nine families with now eight Savannah Grant babies to date.
To apply for these grants, please submit an application for the Cade Foundation Family Building Grant at cadefoundation.org/grants. SGF patients will automatically be considered for the Savannah Grant and Dr. Stephen Greenhouse Grant when they apply for a Family Building Grant.
