The Northside of Fort Worth is full of rich culture, strong families, and emerging potential but our youth are constantly faced with overwhelming odds. Less than half of Fort Worth ISD students read at grade level. As Panther Island and the Stockyards continue to thrive, we want to make sure the Northside youth have every opportunity to be part of this bright future.
YOU CAN HELP CHANGE THAT
This North Texas Giving Day, we’re asking 200 neighbors, friends, and supporters to give just $25 to help us relaunch and grow NICA’s Youth Development Program.
Your gift will help support:
Aventuras Rising
A journey-themed leadership and life skills program with career exploration, soft skills training, financial literacy, and college or trade school readiness. Aventuras Rising is changing the future for Northside youth by providing mentorship, academic support, and leadership opportunities that keep students engaged and on track to graduate. Your gift helps young people rise above barriers, discover their potential, and become the confident leaders our community needs.
Juntos Leamos / Let’s Read Together
NICA's new youth-centered program inspired by the popular silent book club trend. Once a month, students of all grade levels gather in a relaxed, welcoming space to enjoy reading their own books or magazines with no assignments or pressure. Snacks and drinks are provided, and staff and volunteers are there to help with reading support when needed. Each event ends with a fun raffle for prizes like books, bookmarks, or bookstore gift cards, encouraging a lifelong love of reading. This simple yet powerful program gives young readers the chance to connect, build confidence, and discover the joy of stories together.
Every donation is more than a gift; it’s a vote of confidence in our youth. Your generosity fuels hope, opportunity, and transformation. We are profoundly grateful for your kindness, your belief in our mission, and your role in shaping a brighter future for Northside.
