Donating sperm

My wife and I have been searching for a red headed mature male who would be interested in donating his sperm so that we can start a family, but with not many red heads out there especially in our area it's become very difficult. We do not have the money to go to a cyro bank and even then they dont have what we are looking for. So if anyone knows of a place to go that is dirt cheap or of any male who would be interested in this please let us know. We are having a lot of difficulty.

Asking any random male that would be interested in being a sperm donor isn't the wisest way to go. You would know nothing about him or his genetics. Sperm donors go through a thorough screening process, comprehensive interviews, mental evaluations, medical history, family medical history back to at least 3 generations, STD testing, testing for diseases/conditions, drug/alcohol use, etc. Only 5% of applicants meet the criteria to be sperm donors.

Even if you had a red-headed male and you're a red-head doesn't mean the child would be a read head. Genetics are passed down through many generations. There are more important factors to look for than what color hair.
