TLOD Inc. - Dallas Chapter

Our Teens are taking care of business! This month's business meeting included a conversation about college admission and scholarships. Thank you, Lady Verna Famer, for leading this insightful discussion.

Dallas Ladies and Teens stepped out in style for a beautiful evening of Emerald Majesty! Congratulations again to our Mr. Top Teen, Jordan, and Miss Top Teen, Marloh who were presented during last night's Area One Conference gala.

Top Ladies of Distinction, Inc. 55th Area One Conference is in full swing in Houston, TX, and the Dallas Chapter Ladies and Top Teens are present and having a grand time! We are excited to join other chapters in our Area to learn, plan, and perpetuate TLOD and TTA's commitment to service in our communities.

We enjoyed a GRAND time at this year's Blue and Silver Ball. Thank you to all Ladies, Lords, Teens, parents, and family members who helped make this tradition a success, and congratulations to our Mister and Miss Top Teens, Jordan Newsome and Marloh Madison! We look forward to cheering you on as you represent our chapter over the next year!

We are proud of the visionary leaders, educators, athletes, entertainers, philanthropists, activists, inventors, and other influential women who shattered glass ceilings and made women everywhere proud. We celebrate women on the international stage, national stage, and local stage - all in the name of changing the world! Happy Women's History Month!

On the traditional day of romance and love, the Dallas Chapter partnered with South Dallas Business and Professional Women’s Club and National Council of Negro Women – Dallas Southwest Section to talk "real love," love of your heart.

Dr. Kelsey Walker and Dr. Dan Jones provided valuable information on heart disease causes, symptoms, and preventive measures - "real love."
Big shout out to the Top Teens for your service of love today! Job well done, Lady Loren Gilbert-Smith, Coordinator, and Dallas Status of Women Thrust Chairman!

We entered the fourth quarter of 2025 with a packed service calendar, and we executed every event with excellence. We enjoyed Gifts, Carols, and Conversation with the senior residents of Fair Park Health & Rehabilitation Center.

Service and Mentoring are at the core of our mission. We are honored to mentor and serve alongside a phenomenal group of Top Teens. We enjoyed a delicious lunch and social at the completion of our service project and mentoring activities.

We are dedicated to the wellness and success of children and youth in our community. We partnered with Open Hearts to bring Christmas joy to some in foster care through donated gifts and gift cards.
