To Life! Pink Ball – Honoring Francesca LoPorto-Brandow
When: Friday, October 24, 2025
Time: 6:00 PM - 10:00 PM
Where: Glen Sanders Mansion
Founder of The Flutter Express, Francesca LoPorto-Brandow, is honored to be recognized at this year’s To Life! Pink Ball.
This elegant evening raises critical funds to support those impacted by breast cancer — a mission close to Francesca’s heart, as her mother, aunt, mother-in-law, and dear friends have all been affected by this terrible disease.
To Life! has touched many lives, including Francesca’s own circle. Just this past year, they supported her son’s teacher by fitting a wig and providing invaluable resources. They are a local nonprofit making a real difference in our community.
