"I have nothing but praises. I was thrilled with it all and I’m going back next year and bringing people with me!"
"The ambiance, the décor, and the layout was gorgeous. But, the women I met was my absolute favorite part. "
"The joy that the Momference brings to me is second to none. To be surrounded by so many women of color coming together to make ourselves better is priceless. "
