ALAS was founded in order to provide a support network for the Hispanic/Latino community of Washington University in St. Louis.

ALAS exists to create and foster an atmosphere in which the Hispanic/Latino community of Washington University is able to work together to promote cultural awareness, education, and fellowship for the benefit of the Washington University community.
