Program accomplishments

  • In 2024, LALA's core programs continued to perform well, engaging a total of 544 participants across key initiatives. The leadership bootcamp, serving as the gateway into LALA's lifelong ecosystem, delivered ten virtual camps focused on self-leadership, storytelling, and community building. Though participant numbers were slightly lower than during the pandemic peak, this approach strengthened operations in preparation for in-person relaunch in 2025. Bootcamp participants reported significant gains in self-confidence (from 49 to 86) and mental health (from 47 to 87), highlighting the program's impact on personal resilience and social impact identity. The University Placement program selected 32 students from 254 applicants across Brazil, Ecuador, El Salvador, and Peru 60% first-generation, BIPOC, and gap year students resulting in 18 students securing full scholarships totaling nearly $2.5 million for the first year and an estimated $10.2 million over four years. In 2024, 23 students received acceptance letters, with 15 fully funded offers and three external scholarships; notably, 27.78% of fully funded acceptances were awarded to Peruvian students. The Mentorship Program provided tailored support to 122 LALideres through 370 mentoring sessions and five collective trainings, with 95% of mentees progressing toward their goals, 20% fully achieving them, and high satisfaction rates, emphasizing the program's effectiveness in skills development and network expansion.
