Its founder, Shen "Leo" Li, continues to serve as chief executive.

ACRC Global works with intended parents based in the United States and abroad, and says it welcomes LGBTQ+ and single intended parents. Alongside gestational surrogacy, it offers egg donation, sperm donation, IVF concierge support and embryo transport, so families can coordinate matching, medical scheduling and third-party reproduction arrangements through one organization.

I had a really positive experience with ACRC from start to finish. The team was incredibly organised, responsive and reassuring throughout the entire process. They were always quick to answer my questions, clear about what to expect at each stage, and made all of the arrangements very easy to navigate. I especially appreciated how attentive and accommodating everyone was, particularly when plans or timings needed to be coordinated. I felt genuinely well supported throughout and would highly recommend ACRC based on my experience.

She was warm, responsive, organized, and always made me feel genuinely cared for rather than like just another patient. She made a process that can feel stressful and overwhelming so much easier, and I always felt supported and in good hands. I’m so grateful I had her as my fertility coordinator. Because of Elina and the overall experience, I would absolutely donate with them again and would recommend them without hesitation. She is the BEST.

View on Google (opens in a new tab)The best decision of my life that lead to the creation of another life, this company is truly the best. A bright spot of their company would be their great staff, most notably their amazing surrogacy consultant Ellie. She was there for me in every way making the process seamless especially when it came to connecting me with prospective surrogates, health professionals and answering any and all questions I had. 5 stars!
