Carlos Rodon and Ashley's organizations come together to aid couples in becoming parents

The Carlos Rodon Foundation, in collaboration with Ashley's Nest Egg Foundation, aims to help aspiring parents in their journey to conceive. Not everyone is blessed to conceive naturally, prompting them to look for options. One of them includes in vitro fertilization (IVF).

Through this process, sperm cells are fertilized outside the body before they are planted inside the uterus. Though one of the most effective ways to get pregnant, engaging in such activities requires a huge expense.

To solve this problem, which the Rodon family faced on a personal level, the two started The Willow Grant (named after their first son) to provide financial assistance.

“The Willow Grant has been a dream of ours for a long time,” said Carlos Rodon via Phillips. "He acknowledged that infertility is a prevalent issue, often overshadowed in public discourse. The Rodons are dedicated to raising awareness about this challenge and supporting families through their innovative grant program."

Through this program, couples who are qualified can apply for financial assistance of $10,000. The organization announced its first grant on April 5, according to pinstripesnation.com.
