About Us
The Seed Scout, established by attorney Danielle Winston and Board-certified pediatrician Paige Kennedy-Winston, is a modern concierge service for known sperm donor matchmaking.
When looking to build their own family, they knew that learning about the perspective of donor-conceived people was incredibly important for their own future children. They learned that donor-conceived people do not support anonymous donation agreements and they believe it is a basic human right to know the identity of their donor and their genetic origins.
"Like many, we initially sought sperm donors through well-known banks but found the process impersonal and limited in options. We grappled with the anonymity and lack of diversity among donors, as well as the refusal to accept LGBTQIA+ donors.
We took matters into our own hands and sought out our own donor donor. Inspired by that experience, we created The Seed Scout to help you find your perfect donor with ease. We want this process to be fun and exciting for you – because it can be."
"We felt euphoric finding our donor because he was our perfect match. We want all parents and donors to share that same joy."
