National Charity League, San Luis Rey Chapter holds 'Havana Nights' ball

FALLBROOK – The San Luis Rey Chapter of National Charity League held its biennial ball at the Hilltop Center, April 6. The theme of the event was “A Night in Havana.”

Seanna Hunter, Stacey Laurance and Laura Salinas, along with a crew of NCL Patronesses, labored for weeks to create a night to remember. Guests were encouraged to dress in “Cuban attire.” Patronesses were garbed in ruffles, bright colors, floral prints and head wraps. Gentlemen guests wore guayabera shirts, linen jackets and fedoras.

Ahrend Studios provided pictures of the Patronesses and their guests in their Havana finery. Live music by San Diego Latin Jazz Collective and Cuban inspired decor created the atmosphere. There was also salsa dancing instruction to get everyone out on the floor. Cuban food, cigars and sangria rounded out the evening.

Established in Los Angeles in 1925, National Charity League Inc. is the nation’s premier mother-daughter nonprofit organization. The six-year core program includes leadership development, community service and cultural experiences. Members contributed more than 1.4 million volunteer hours to more than 4,000 local philanthropy partners last year alone.
