MENSAJE DEL PRESIDENTE
Queridos miembros y amigos de la Hispanic Society de Victoria,
soy miembro de la HSV desde 2013 y formé parte del comité desde entonces. Yo nací en Italia y viví en Argentina por aproximadamente 20 años. Llegué a Australia en 1973 y durante todos estos años siempre estuve involucrada con la comunidad hispana hablante: juntos con padres y maestras abrimos la escuela Argentina de Clayton; estuve en la organización del círculo argentino; y comencé el club de abuelos de Clayton. Siempre participé activamente, colaborando para mantener vivas la cultura, la lengua y la comunidad hispana. Este año tenemos la celebración especial de los 70 años de la HSV. Aprovecho esta oportunidad para darles las gracias a las personas que iniciaron HSV y por su legado. Mi gran deseo es que la Sociedad siga cumpliendo muchos años más y, con harmonía, y con más oportunidades de connectar socios de todas las edades y nacionalidades. Por fin, agradezco, junto al Comité, a todos voluntarios y patrocinadores por su inmenso apoyo, cooperación y difusión de nuestras actividades durante el año. Saludos, Elvira Cifaratti Presidente | Hispanic Society of Victoria |
MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT
Dear members and friends of the Hispanic Society of Victoria,
I have been a member and part of the HSV Committee since 2013. I was born in Italy and lived in Argentina for around 20 years. I arrived in Australia in 1973, and have always been involved with the Hispanic community: together with parents & teachers, we opened a Clayton Argentinian school; I participated in the Argentinian Circle and started the Clayton Granparent’s Club. I am an active supporter of the Hispanic culture, language and community. This year we have an especial 70-year anniversary of the HSV. I would like to take this opportunity to say a huge thank you to all HSV founders & for your legacy. I wish the Society many more years, and that we continue to harmoniously connect more members from all ages and nationalities. Lastly, the HSV committee and I appreciate all volunteers and sponsors for your great support, collaboration, and promoting our events during the year. Regards, Elvira Cifaratti President | Hispanic Society of Victoria |
