LAFF’s Festival of Youth

International Youth Day takes place August 12th.

LAFF is organising a Festival of Youth during this week to celebrate our beneficiaries and bring our community together with a range of virtual events. We will be passing the mic to young Peruvian change-makers in a webinar and holding a Peruvian dance class, and a Peruvian cookery class – there really is something for everyone!

We want to celebrate our Peruvian Youth for more than one day… Join us for a week of celebrations with amazing events!

All events are available upon a voluntary donation that will go towards the education of young vulnerable children in the region of Cusco. To sign up, click on the Eventbrite links below:
