Program accomplishments

The clinic created the foundation for the League's relationships with major medical resources in Houston, including Baylor College of Medicine, Ben Taub Hospital, Memorial Hermann - Texas Medical Center, Texas Children's Hospital, and The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center. To fund the clinic, members formed a Luncheon Club - the genesis of today's Tea Room. The Tea Room supports the League's exempt purposes by serving as a training facility where members are educated in the discipline of service, which is then carried into various community service projects the League undertakes. The training and education afforded by the Tea Room enable members to be more effective and efficient community volunteers. The Tea Room exclusively serves its Tea Room patron members, League members, and their guests.Expenses $4,619,337 · revenue $4,612,529
