Lisa was honored when invited to Uganda to assist the government in creating ethical surrogacy legislation. Speaking from her perspective as the “Host Mother” it was clear that her motives were to protect the Host Mothers and create a structure that works for both the Intended Parents and Host Mothers.
Lisa believes that families are the greatest gift and finances should not be the limiting factor to attaining your dream. By creating an ethical structure for surrogacy in Uganda, Lisa has helped create a safe, ethical, and affordable option. Host Moms Uganda is a surrogacy program that goes beyond simple compensation for services.
