Founder
Nevaeh Jackson is an 8-year-old bilingual second-grade student born in Houston Texas. Nevaeh attends a Dual Language Academy in Houston Texas and is a fluent speaker, reader, and writer in both English and Spanish. She aspires to have her own practice as a Pediatrician. Nevaeh first became interested in the foster care system after watching a Lifetime movie about her favorite gymnast, Simone Biles. She has become committed to serving the community through volunteer efforts such as Coat Drives, Toy-giveaways and volunteering with different organizations with her mom. Nevaeh is a natural giver and has dedicated her youth to philanthropy by creating programs that benefit children in the foster care system.
Our History
In 2018, Nevaeh's mom, Elisa, became a CASA advocate through the Child Advocates division in Harris County. After spending several hours per week in training, her daughter Nevaeh became curious as to what was taking her mom away from the home. Elisa explained in detail about CASA, its mission and how children are taken into Foster Care. Child Advocates gave Elisa a book named “Just for Now” to read to the children assigned on the case. Elisa left the book in the car one day and Nevaeh read the book in its entirety and began asking questions about the foster care system. Neveah learned that children are often transported from home to home with their belongings in trash bags and was outraged. “Children are not garbage, their things should not be in trash bags”, she stated. Nevaeh decided she wanted to do something to assist the children in foster care and thought that providing luggage to the children in foster care was her way of helping. She got on her mom’s cell phone and began calling all the people in her contact log she knew to solicit donations to start the nonprofit. After receiving enough donations, the idea of Kids N Care was developed.
