Welcome to the Womenade Of Houston web site!
When
life hands you lemons, make lemonade. That advice was the seed that grew to become Womenade. Amy Kossoff, a doctor in Washington
DC, conceived the idea from her desire to make a difference in the world on a very personal level. She gathered a group of
friends, who invited more friends, to share a potluck dinner and contribute the cost of an evening out to the charity. They
raised $3000. Womenade was born.
This
grassroots movement has spread throughout the United States. Laura Thomas, inspired by an article about Womenade, founded
Womenade of Houston, a recognized Texas non-profit corporation that is actively seeking its 501(c)3 status with the IRS.
