I wanted my last blog of 2014 to be special…Kenelma Figueroa is a beautiful curvy lady who is in charge of an amazing non-profit project named Models for Society. This project intends to work with the self-esteem of children teaching them to learn to relate to others in healthy way of living. It is aimed for children between the ages of 6-12 years.
Model Ilka Tamar
This project moves from one community to another to impact as many children as possible. They participate in activities that promote the arts, table etiquette, values, self-love and care for the environment, it is worked six months per year. She contacted me a while back because she wanted to give her models the experience of a shoot and the whole experience of the modeling world

. It was not an easy task getting her wish to come true, lately nobody does anything for free but I found an amazing model named Ilka Tamar who has a modeling studio named MetaMorphosis Academy at Isla Verde and she did not hesitate to help them.
Kenelma and her husband Sammy Stuart who is always by her side took the girls to what would turn out to be an incredible experience for them, they listened carefully to Ilka’s words about the modeling world and even got to participate in a mini shoot. This is what life is about giving from the heart without expecting anything in return.
May everyone have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year….XOXO
