I have always been passionate about supporting organizations that create opportunities for individuals to excel in life and have a broad impact on our communities. The mission of DFS Houston – empowering women to thrive in life and work – extends beyond the women we serve directly and creates positive changes for their families and the community at large. I am excited about the innovation and development of the programming at DFS Houston over the last few years that has enabled the organization to have an even greater impact on the women we serve. Having observed first-hand the achievements that our clients have had since becoming involved in the organization in 2012, I am thrilled to continue to be a part of the future of DFS Houston and the ongoing expansion of our service offering to continue to support our clients’ growth and success.

The future for DFS Houston is endless; not only from the physical growth but from its vast community outreach to empower women from different backgrounds and supporting their success in a myriad of ways. I am proud to support this agency and walk alongside these women in our community.”
