You are cordially invited to come and party with a purpose at the Purple Peach Party: Connecting Sisters soiree! I am teaming with the Preeclampsia Foundation’s Take 10 for Preeclampsia Research program and Wanda Irving with Dr. Shalon's Maternal Action Project to host this Girlfriends-only Gathering Table event. Join me in CELEBRATING US as Black women who create magic every day for our families, our jobs, and our communities.

This soiree is a time for us to gather together and build connections, talk about our maternal health, share some of our life lessons, and support one another in a safe space where we can just be ourselves.

Our Soiree will include a social hour, photography, food, and a program focused on telling and sharing our maternal health stories. Registration is free, and you can also make an optional donation that goes to support the Preeclampsia Foundation's work to improve outcomes for Black women and their babies through events like this Purple Peach Party Gathering Table. Your story could change hers! 

This is an invitation-only soiree! Each guest must RSVP - there will not be onsite registration, so please register today!

With a big warm hug and an "All in to Take 10", I look forward to meeting you!

Ms. Wanda Irving, Co-Founder Dr. Shalon's Maternal Action Project
