As many of you have read on theshoegoddess.net, my life is dedicated to improving kid's lives and especially kids from Los Angeles inner-city.
I have been a volunteer for years at a fabulous after school program that not only provides a safe haven for many children but also enables them to learn and enjoy many activities such as music, dance, creative expression, yoga, computer literacy and many more. But First and foremost it shields these children from the dangers of gang violence and drugs.
A few months ago I was able to create a cooking program that I teach every Tuesday. The response has been incredible; it started with six kids signed up to 15 and counting.
My hope is to find advertisers through this blog which will hopefully provide me with the means to create many more programs. I would like to redo the whole kitchen and provide scholarship for the less fortunate.

Although it has nothing to do with shoes, I wanted to share with you, some of the pictures. taken during the cooking classes.
This is me the Florence theshoegoddess with some of my students.
