Flip Flops for charity


As part of Casa Valentina’s year-long "Walk A Mile In Her Shoes" campaign, the non-profit Casa Valentina is selling limited-edition flip flops for their cause.

The black classic-style flip flops feature a recurring Casa Valentina logo on the sole and a pink strap with the signature Casa Valentina heart in a house emblem. Each pair comes in a black drawstring bag featuring the Casa Valentina logo. The flip flops come in three sizes (s, m and l) and cost $30 per pair. A $5 shipping & handling fee will be added to each order. They can be purchased online at
www.casavalentina.org or by calling 305-403-5380. All profits benefit Casa Valentina.

“The Walk A Mile In Her Shoes campaign is a valuable opportunity to educate the community about the crisis young people face when they age out of foster care and about what we do at Casa Valentina, and the flip flips are a fun way for us to communicate the message,” said Chelsea Wilkerson, Executive Director of Casa Valentina.

These would make great Mother's Day, graduation or birthday gifts.

Casa Valentina was formed in 2004 by a group of concerned Grove residents who acknowledged the immense challenges faced by young women who age out of foster care without the life experience, financial stability and support they need to survive on their own.
