CooperSurgical to match portion of sales and
donate to RESOLVE aiding in raising awareness and destigmatizing
infertility
TRUMBULL, Conn., April 25,
2023 /PRNewswire/ -- CooperSurgical, a global
leader in fertility and women's health, today announced they are
partnering with The Noble Paperie, which makes cards & paper
products dedicated to supporting families along their journeys
through miscarriage, infertility, and birth. This partnership will
start with three cards designed specifically for friends and family
to send to women and men dealing with infertility and are available
for sale today in honor of National Infertility Awareness
Week® (NIAW). CooperSurgical will match fifty percent of
proceeds from the cards sales in a donation to RESOLVE: The
National Infertility Association, a non-profit organization
dedicated to removing stigmas and changing the conversation around
infertility.
One in eight U.S. families has trouble conceiving or carrying a
pregnancy to term.1 Research shows people diagnosed with
and treated for infertility can experience a sense of loneliness,
isolation, and shame.2 This line of cards by
CooperSurgical and The Noble Paperie is intended to help friends
and family lend support during the difficult moments in the
infertility journey.
"For many, the path to pregnancy and parenthood can be
challenging, and there are many moments in time that can be
triggering," said Kate Woolley,
founder of The Noble Paperie. "My journey to motherhood was
difficult, so I appreciate CooperSurgical's efforts to not only
focus on the science of infertility, but to raise awareness and
empathy for the emotional impacts as well."
Three cards are currently available and additional designs will
roll out during the year. The cards available today offer support
generally on the topic of infertility, as well as specific support
for the upcoming Mother's Day and Father's Day holidays, which can
be difficult for women and men struggling with fertility issues.
Subsequent designs will lend support during other emotional times
such as baby showers, Halloween and other life events.
"As a leader in fertility and women's health, we often hear from
patients and their physicians about the mental impact of
infertility and the accompanying treatments," stated Holly Sheffield, President, CooperSurgical. "We
are excited about this partnership, as this is a unique way of
showing up for the men and women who are going through fertility
challenges and offers friends and family a way to show compassion
and support for their loved ones."
To purchase the cards, go to The Noble Paperie.
