LLYCxLaEducación

Sharing knowledge and culture.

We joined the celebration of International Education Day with the goal of sharing knowledge and culture.

On January 24, International Education Day, we activated the #LLYCxEducation challenge through a virtual event for our LLYCERS. We invited our volunteers to recommend books, movies, quotes, artwork, travel experiences, or personal stories that have inspired them and helped spread knowledge, culture, and education.

#LLYCxEducation was a success!
