What started in 1986 with one paid employee, two volunteers, a donated mammography machine, and used furniture from garage sales, has blossomed into an organization that serves over forty thousand Texans across forty-three counties. On August 1st, The Rose celebrated her 37th birthday. Yes, her birthday. Not "its 37th anniversary." During this episode, you'll learn why The Rose is viewed as a woman and not an organization, as well as its humble beginnings and the people who kept it going in the face of adversity. These stories are both inspiring and harrowing, and they serve as everyday reminders of why we do what we do.
