Our Mission
To offer young people of Latin origin and other nationalities the opportunity to have a broad global vision of the cultural diversity of Spanish-speaking countries
Our Values
-
1
Soy
You are Latin because you were born in a country where one of the languages derived from Latin is spoken, such as Spanish. Language unites all Latin Americans.

Latino
Latin is a huge culture. It's not just dancing salsa, meringue, tango or reggaetón or eating taquitos, rice with chicken, ceviche, pupusas or rice with beans. Being Latin means so much more than these things. It means sharing a history, similar traditions, a love for our roots, and an attachment to our family.

Como
We have no borders. When we arrive in the United States we are no longer called Peruvians, Argentines, Ecuadorians, Mexicans, Salvadorans, Cubans, or any denomination from some other Spanish-speaking country. We lose our identity of origin because here we are all referred to as Latinos, a term that defines our ethnic group. An ethnic group that is now the fastest-growing in the country.

Tu
You are bicultural. The cultural heritage of your parents runs through your veins, even if you were born in this great nation. You are Latino because those roots belong to you, beyond the language, beyond the color of your skin, and beyond social class.
