LLYCxLaEducación II

Sharing knowledge and culture through our volunteers. 

#LLYCxlaEducación is an initiative launched on Fundación LLYC’s social media profiles to encourage our volunteers to share recommendations for books, films, podcasts, art, travel, experiences, or personal stories that inspired them. The aim was to create a chain of knowledge and culture while enjoying the shared joy of reading together.
