关于我们
New Horizons of North Texas is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to telling at-risk kids a different story. Over 100,000 kids in our community go home alone each day after school, and 1/3 kids in Dallas County ready below grade level by the 4th grade; far too often, trends would say that they end up becoming another negative statistic. As a result, we are on a mission to tell kids a different story through tutoring, mentoring, and faith-building. With the support of community volunteers, New Horizons' afterschool programs provide 8 hours of mentoring throughout the school year to youth from East Dallas, as well as a 4 week summer camp. New Horizons partners with local neighbors, churches, organizations, corporations, and foundations for both volunteer and financial support. Each year students receive the opportunity to age with New Horizons programming, as we expand to serve a child from elementary through high school graduation. New Horizons of North Texas was founded in 2015 as an independent affiliate of New Horizons of Southwest Florida, founded in 2003 and who now serves nearly 500 youth each year.

"My name is Wendy Bowers, as the new site director at New Horizons , I bring a 13 year background in childcare and school age children. I have an associate degree of arts and bachelors degree from Colorado State University in healthcare administration and management. As a site director, I want to bring my knowledge of inspiring children to think outside the box, provide them with an interest in learning at every stage level, and create a positive environment to share an open mind to building lasting relationships through the learning process." Wendy is incredible! She makes an effort to personally spend time and get to know each student. She exhibits incredible patience and compassion for the kids and models the love of Christ so well. She is passionate about STEM and loves getting the kids engaged with hands on learning! We are so blessed to have her as a part of our team and excited to see what her future holds here at New Horizons! #texasnonprofit?#dfwlocal?#dfwnonprofit?#nonprofitsofinsta?#dfwcommunity?#dallascommunity?#dallasnonprofit?#faithbased?#fortworthtexas?#childempowerment?#youthadvocacy?#afterschoolprogram?#northtexas?#youthmentorship?#mentoringmatters?#childadvocacy

Our perspective on forgiveness changes when we remember that Jesus forgave us of every single sin we've committed on the cross. Jesus' compassion and forgiveness towards us, empowers us to be compassionate towards others and forgive even the worst of betrayals. A lot of our students have been deeply wounded, but last week we taught the kids unforgiveness really harms the person who holds it, not the person who was wronged. With forgiveness there comes true peace and healing to live a joyful life. #texasnonprofit?#verseoftheday?#dallascommunity?#dfwlocal?#northtexas #dfwcommunity #faithbased

At our Uplift Site in Fort Worth, Miss Wendy’s thing is Science, and she does a great job of making sure the kids get to do a lot of STEM projects. The kids were challenged with making the tallest structure possible given a certain amount of marshmallows and sticks of spaghetti. They had some interesting techniques for sure, including snacking on the materials ??. Something really great about after school is that kids of different grade levels and ages come together to participate and help one another on the same project, teaching them about community. This project gave the kids a chance for hands on learning about physics, planning, structure, collaboration and communication. Your donation and support makes a huge impact for youth in North Texas and makes after school education and activities like these possible, we thank you! https://lnkd.in/g3jNUgmh #STEMlearning?#afterschoolprogram?#nonprofit?#nonprofitorganization?#texasnonprofits?#northtexas?#stemeducationforkids?#handsonactivities???#nonprofitcommunity?#youthadvocacy
