KANSAS CITY'S PREMIER SHOE CHARITY GALA!

Benefiting Newhouse Domestic Violence Shelter, the Kansas City Metropolitan area has 6 shelters that collectively average approximately 400 beds. The mission of Hot Stiletto Foundation is to assist the victims of domestic violence through our support of these local shelters and to bring awareness of all issues impacting women and the families they nurture.

We accomplish our mission through our values and beliefs:

• We value inclusiveness, striving to maintain diversity of age, race,     

  sexual orientation, religion, differently-abled, sex, and national origin.

• We value integrity, trust and ethics within our service delivery.

• We value the philosophy of empowerment.

• We believe in providing a safe, healing environment, which includes physical, spiritual, psychological, and emotional components, as well as

  ongoing supportive services.

• We believe that early intervention with children will maximize the potential of breaking the intergenerational cycle of abuse.

• We believe in educating the community about domestic violence and the services that Newhouse staff members provide.
