Francine's Birthday Toast
We’re keeping the celebration going after the Date with Daughters launch—join us at Le Louis, the hidden cocktail lounge beneath REYNA near Union Square, for a birthday toast to Francine Mbvoumbo, Founder of Mothers to Daughters.
Birthday note: Francine won’t be accepting gifts—if you’d like to celebrate her, donations to Mothers to Daughters (501(c)(3)) are warmly encouraged. https://www.zeffy.com/donation-form/donate-to-change-lives-1765
Expect an intimate, polished setting with a full bar, lively conversation, and photo-ready moments—bringing together guests from multiple networks (founders, creatives, operators, community builders), which makes this genuinely time well spent meeting new people.
This is a cash bar experience. Come for the drinks, stay for the stories, and help make Francine’s birthday one to remember.
If you want one extra “hard to say no” line to close:
“If you’ve been meaning to meet new people in an elevated room—this is your moment.”
