Message from our President

Welcome

Welcome to the South Australian Italian Association – a non-profit and non-partisan organisation supported by a community of passionate volunteers, who preserve, promote and celebrate all things Italian.

We are a vibrant personal, social and corporate community with a mission to facilitate dialogue and be a voice for our community, to deliver relevant and contemporary services and exceptional engagement opportunities, to develop and promote business networks, to support other social and cultural organisations and, importantly, to build upon the legacy of our forebears for the benefit of our entire community. And we do all of this with heart.

We have achieved much over recent years, and we have exciting plans for the years ahead.

I invite you to meet our board, attend an event and join us as a member of our vibrant community,
Dr Phillip Donato OAM
