Aspire In Person Classes are back for Fall! Aspire is holding in-person classes in four locations across the city for the first time since the pandemic, including Dallas and Collin County sites. Early childhood and ESL classes are being held in the Owenwood Farm and Neighbor Space in East Dallas for the first time since Aspire moved into the facility in 2020. As a result, the children’s classrooms are alive with all the sounds of excitement and learning! Read more »
There is still time to join the Legacy of Literacy Breakfast! Please click the link below to purchase your tickets or sponsorship for what will be an excellent opportunity for us to come together to listen, learn, and embrace how the mission of Aspire impacts the community. The highlight of each event is the student speakers who present their experiences furthering their education and share the impact that experience has had on their lives and their family. Since 2009, the annual Legacy of Literacy breakfast has recognized our supporters' hard work and determination. This year we will host a panel of three leaders in our community to discuss an issue impacting the entire North Texas region.

LOLB DATE WHEN: OCTOBER 27, 2022 WHERE: ARTS DISTRICT MANSION (formerly the Belo Mansion) 2101 Ross Ave, Dallas, TX 75201 TIME: 7:30am-9:00am Aspire set record single day giving mark on 2022 North Texas Giving Day! Thank you for the incredibly generous support of Aspire on North Texas Giving Day! Together we have made a meaningful difference to our courageous students and families! Money raised on NTXGD will provide a strong foundation for more than the 1,000 students we serve annually. Due to this support, Aspire has grown the literacy program sizes by 40% in 2022, and we have increased services to 400 people per year in the Workforce training program. That is the power of giving! We are grateful to be part of a community that shows its trust in Aspire through this massive outpouring of generosity. Standing together, our students can become the best version of themselves by taking advantage of the second chance you provide. We are motivated by our students’ desire to learn because we know that confident learners can overcome obstacles and reach new heights for themselves, their families, and their communities.
This month we introduce Noelia Saenz, who joined Aspire as a volunteer in February 2022 and is teaching ESL 103 online. Noelia, a native of Dallas, was born in Oak Cliff but is very well-traveled. Motivated to serve Aspire by a love of education, she brings to Aspire a diverse history of service to others. Our volunteers come to us with varied backgrounds and careers, and Noelia is an excellent example of the special people who serve our students. Read more » |
