About: Las Fotos Project is a non-profit community based photography program whose primary goal is to bring about positive change for adolescent girls facing adversity. Through one-on-one mentoring, photography trainings, and assigned field projects, our programs and services foster the creativity, communication, critical thinking, and collaboration skills needed to compete in a 21st century workforce. We serve female students between the ages of 11-18, from predominantly low-income households, who do not have access to photography equipment or arts-based programs.
