About Future Families NW

Future Families NW, LLC, which operates as Future Families NW, is a for-profit surrogacy and egg donation matching agency based in Oregon. It works from two offices, in Portland and Medford, and describes its founding as dating back to 2003. It is a small operation, with a handful of staff; Carrie Rambo is listed as the manager of the Medford office, and the agency's materials refer to a second co-director alongside her.

The agency offers what it calls "Complete Matching Services," a full-service model that begins with matching intended parents and gestational surrogates and continues through the practical work of a journey. According to the agency, that includes verifying and helping arrange medical and life insurance for surrogates, coordinating psychological evaluations and legal representation, arranging travel, and running criminal background checks on all parties. It also says it refers clients to OB-GYNs, fertility specialists and other professionals experienced in surrogacy.

Alongside surrogacy matching, Future Families NW runs an egg donation program, so intended parents who need both a donor and a gestational carrier can work with one organization. The agency serves LGBTQ+ intended parents as well as single people building families on their own.

Because the practice is small, the agency's own testimonials emphasize direct, hands-on involvement from its two principals rather than a larger case-management team. Intended parents and prospective surrogates can reach the agency through its website, which lists contacts for both the Portland and Medford offices.

Eligibility requirements, fees and surrogate compensation, along with licensing and Better Business Bureau information, appear in the sections below.

Reviews & reputation

  • Negative mentionIntended parent

    Summary: Intended parent reports a poor overall experience. They selected the agency primarily on price, knowing they might be trading away professionalism and follow-through; the agency representative arrived about 25 minutes late to the initial meeting and spent much of it discussing an unrelated personal dog-breeding business. The poster describes lingering unease about the decision throughout the engagement.
