Welcome! 

Dorothy Gibbons is the Co-Founder & CEO of The Rose in Houston, TX.  She is also an author, motivator, fundraiser, speaker and force of nature!  

Texas women have a well-earned reputation for big hair, big hearts and Texas-sized tenacity. ‘The Women of The Rose’ is the story of such women -- the kind who didn't let the "little" things like no money, no experience with non-profits, and no breaks in the glass ceiling keep them from launching what has become a 30-year investment in life-saving women's health. In this collection of stories from co-founder Dorothy Gibbons you will discover what it took to face naysayers, build a legacy, and even take on what once was a death sentence for 1000s of women.
