"I want these girls to dream big and not allow circumstances in their lives to create limits — the possibilities are endless!" said Gonzales. Latina sisters and co-owners, Gonzales and Ann Marie Smith opened Aldabella Scarpa for business five years ago and knew they wanted to give back to their community. "It's my hope that these Shoe Giveback events will be a positive experience for these girls and their families," said Smith.
