HISTORY

Texas Business Women traces its beginnings to 1919. Since this time, former members have laid the groundwork for business women with the adoption of the Texas Equal Rights Amendment guaranteeing women the right to control property separately from their husbands and close the gap between women and men in the workplace.  Most recently, Texas Business Women worked to establish the M.D. Anderson Cancer Research Hospital in Texas.
