Meet Delivering Hope
Cat Dobbs
Who Delivering Hope Is
My husband Silas and I have two beautiful children, and when I watched my sister struggle with infertility, I felt that it wasn’t fair. How could this thing that had come so easily to me be denied to others? Volunteering a year of my life to be a gestational surrogate was a call from my faith, and one of those moments where you just know you have to act. I felt so fortunate that the relationship between my family and my intended parents was such a powerful one.
After my own journey, I fell in love with the surrogacy process and what it meant to give this gift. I don’t see what I do as a “job” but rather living out my passion and purpose in helping other people with one of the most important parts of their lives, their families.
I love working with surrogates because they are amazing, selfless people who simply want to make a difference.
I love working with intended parents because I get to be a part of a beautiful story as it unfolds. Intended parents call us feeling broken, tired and hopeless. As we walk through the journey, hope starts to rise as they begin looking forward to their future. When the baby finally arrives, it is the most beautiful moment you can imagine.
To me, this is not work; it is seeing and experiencing the best of humanity – people helping people, and lives being changed. I love what I do and feel deeply honored to be a part of it.
- Meet Delivering Hope's Team -
Holly
My name is Holly and I live in Eastern Washington with my husband and our 4 girls.
I am also a nurse by trade with over 14 years of experience. After I had a surrogate baby in 2020, I fell in love with surrogacy and hoped to do it more than once. Unfortunately it wasn’t in the cards for me.
Luckily, after my journey, the offer to join Delivering Hope’s team came at the right time and was the perfect fit! From the first day, I realized I could have passion in my work again and have loved every day since!
As the surrogate director, I am here to support our team and guide surrogates through this journey while sharing in every exciting moment that comes with it. My favorite part of my role is the relationships I have with surrogates who are going through this process. I can feel my team rolling their eyes at me when I meet a new surrogate and say, “she is my favorite!!”, because they know I say that about every surrogate I meet. I am so lucky to have found a career surrounded by amazing people every day.

Before joining Delivering Hope, Angela worked as the Intended Parent Onboarding Specialist with SeedTrust Escrow, where she supported intended parents through the early and often complex financial and logistical steps of their journeys. Her background also includes healthcare as a CCMA and case management, giving her a strong foundation in organization, communication, and compassionate support. These combined experiences allow her to guide families with both empathy and precision, ensuring they feel cared for and confident every step of the way.
