ASPIRE Tutorials - Houston

Sewa's mission is to empower communities by sharing with them the resources and skills needed to
enhance their own lives. For underserved youth in Houston, that empowerment is taking place
through the ASPIRE Program.
The focus is on the overall development of the children, nurturing in them the knowledge and
qualities required for social and academic success, such as emotional intelligence, competence in
core subjects, critical thinking, and creativity.
Since 2013, we have been providing free out-of-school tutoring, mentoring and enriching activities
to children of low-income families in Southwest Houston. ASPIRE addresses education gaps that
many children face due to cultural and language barriers. Sewa runs three after-school programs,
all at no cost to the students and their families. Each center is housed in an apartment that’s been
converted into a learning space, directly in the apartment complex where the students live.
