June is World Infertility Awareness Month. 🧡

A month to acknowledge the millions of individuals and couples around the world carrying a story they never expected to tell.

The waiting.
The grief.
The unanswered prayers.
The doctor appointments, heartbreak, hope, and trying again.

If infertility is a part of your story, we want you to know this:

You are seen and you are not walking this road alone.

We believe there is strength in community and hope even in the hardest seasons. We are here to support, encourage, and walk alongside those navigating infertility through the highs, the heartbreaks, and everything in between.

This month, we honor every infertility story. 🧡

To the women in waiting on this Mother’s Day weekend… 🤍

The waiting can feel heavy.
The prayers can feel unanswered.
The ache can feel unseen by so many around you.

But one thing we hold onto is this: God does not waste waiting seasons.

Even here, in the uncertainty and the heartbreak— He is still working. Still carrying you. Still writing a story that matters. Waiting is not evidence of His absence.

If this weekend feels tender for you, you are not forgotten. You are deeply loved by a God who sees every tear, hears every prayer, and stays near in every season. 🧡

Today, on Bereaved Mother’s Day, we honor the mothers who carry both love and loss. 🤍

God sees every tear and He holds every precious life close to His heart. Even in grief, we cling to the promise that He is near to the brokenhearted and faithful in every season. (Psalm 34:18)

We see you. We hold space for your grief, your love, and your story. Your motherhood matters. Your babies matter. Always. 🤍

1 in 6.

That’s not rare…
that’s a room full of people—and at least two of them are quietly carrying something really heavy.

1 in 6 couples experience infertility.
Not “a few people.”
One. in. six.

Infertility isn’t a distant statistic.
It’s your friend who changes the subject.
Your coworker who skips the baby shower.
The woman smiling in photos while silently tracking every detail behind the scenes.

It’s negative tests hidden at the bottom of the trash.
It’s doing everything “right” and still being met with silence.

So no… it’s not rare.
It’s just rarely talked about.

And if you’re part of that 1 in 6, we see you. We support you. You are not alone. 🧡

Today, we wear orange. 🧡

During Infertility Awareness Week, is a simple but powerful way to show support, spark conversation, and remind those walking this journey that they are not alone.

This week, the Limestone County, Ala. - Commission Courthouse is also lit in orange as a beacon of hope and solidarity for the infertility community. It’s a visible reminder that this journey matters, and so do the people walking through it. We’re thankful for their support!

Wear orange. Share hope. Start conversations.
Because awareness leads to understanding, and understanding leads to support. 🧡

It’s Day 2 of National Infertility Awareness Week.🤍

We understand support doesn’t always look the same.

For some, it’s a partner who walks every step beside you. For others, it’s a friend who checks in, a doctor who truly listens, or a community that understands without explanation. And for some, it’s still something they’re searching for.

At Foundation 1:17, we’re here to be that support—for every person, in every season—whether you have a strong support system at home or you’re still longing for one.

Today, take a moment to recognize the people who have made you feel a little less alone. Tag them if you want to. Or simply share what support looks like to you.

Because no matter where you are in your story, you were never meant to carry it alone. 🧡

We don’t talk about infertility enough. But this week, we are.

This Easter, we’re reminded that hope is never out of reach. Because of Christ, even the hardest journeys can be filled with purpose, peace, and promise. 🧡

He is risen—and because He lives, there is always hope. 🤍
