The Rose

The Rose is a leading non-profit breast health organization based in Houston, Texas, dedicated to providing mammography screening, diagnosis, and access to treatment for all women, regardless of their ability to pay. Founded in 1986, the organization operates multiple permanent centers and a fleet of mobile mammography units to serve insured and uninsured patients across Southeast Texas. The Rose focuses on early detection as the key to survival and offers a comprehensive range of services including digital mammography, ultrasound, biopsies, and patient navigation. Through its unique "Empower Her" sponsorship program, the organization ensures that for every woman who pays for services, a portion of the proceeds helps cover the costs for an uninsured woman. The organization is recognized as a Breast Imaging Center of Excellence and serves as a critical safety net for women's health in the region.
