Vision

At CatWalk Pros Academy, Inc., our vision is to empower, educate, and inspire young people in underserved communities by using fashion as a tool for positive change. As a South Florida-based nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization, we aim to foster personal growth through a comprehensive approach that includes personal development, health and wellness, modeling concepts, effective communication, digital etiquette, social graces, social awareness, decision-making, goal setting, leadership, and negotiation.

We envision a future where young people are confident, capable, and productive individuals, equipped with the skills, support, and resources they need to pursue their dreams and make meaningful contributions to their communities.
Empowering young minds

CatWalk Pros Academy

Through our labor of love, we are making a positive impact

This philanthropic aspect of Catwalk Pros is deeply rooted in youth mentorship and development. I am frequently asked, “Why do I do this?” The answer lies in the countless lives we have mentored and inspired. From training models on the runway to nurturing their confidence and self-esteem, our mission is to empower young individuals. This has been our unwavering commitment for many years.

Although I may not have been blessed with children of my own, I strongly believe that mentoring these young people is my purpose in life. Perhaps it is the path that God has laid out for me. I trust in divine guidance and it feels like the right thing to do.
It’s difficult to put into words the emotional connection I feel towards this endeavor. It goes beyond mere words or logic. This work is driven purely by the heart. It is a labor of love—a dedication that stems from the deepest parts of my being.

Together, through our labor of love, we are making a positive impact on the lives of these young individuals, nurturing their dreams and helping them flourish.

We provide immersive programs, mentorship, and experiences designed to build confidence in middle and high school students, empowering them to become future leaders.
