Peruvian Community of Victoria

The Peruvian Community of Victoria is a Non-Profit organization founded in March 2012 when the Peruvians decided to legally structure the community. For many years the Peruvians organized the annual celebration of the Independence Day of Peru. This Community has greatly represented our Peruvian culture. Throughout the year new members join and work towards organizing many activities, projects and other social and sporting events to help us unite and share our culture and traditions with Australia.

Fonda La Clinica

“Fonda La Clinica is born in 1997 as a non-profit community group formed by Chilean, Latin American and Australian friends.
Our first objective was to fund a fonda that would be exactly like a Chilean fonda, in order to celebrate Chile’s national days. The idea was that the money raised would be used to pay for a radio program but with time we realised that there were other necessities and the association began providing solidarity help to Chile and other parts of the world when it was needed. We also wanted to support other community organisations, not only Chileans but from other Latin American communities, this support is shown by attending their activities. More...
