Texas Journaling Group Supports Tanzanian Orphans


Dody Stovall

A local women’s journaling group, the Flamingos, is supporting orphan girls in Tanzania who have shown a talent for science and math. Thanks to the Flamingos, five girls will receive a Twirligirli gown in recognition of being selected for a secondary school science scholarship.


“The idea is to make sure that the girls know that someone cares about them,” says Twirligirli founder Cathy Stovall. The gowns were donated in memory of Stovall’s mother, Dody Stovall (pictured here on her 57th wedding anniversary).


She loved my Twirligirli business and encouraged and inspired me to continue my mission of bringing cheerful twirls to girls through colorful, playful gowns.” Stovall adds. “Many times, she sewed finishing touches to the gowns with her loving hands. They carry her goodness and sweetness and are dedicated to her.” Learn more about Twirligirli.
