Our
Story
Nestled in the heart of Washington, D.C., LASA is a student-run organization dedicated and eager to continue building a Latin American family within and beyond campus. Founded in 1996, the organization began as a space for Latin American students to unite and embrace shared cultural heritage. The work of many generations has allowed us to maintain an inclusive community for intimate friendships, professional development, and meaningful service to others.
Together, we are shaping a legacy that will stand the test of time, fostering a sense of belonging and creating a lasting bond for future generations of students and alumni alike. Undoubtedly, LASA's unmatched Latin vibrance and diversity will continue flourishing and serving as a beloved home for everyone.
