Services for the Latin community
LLAMA delivers free online and face-to-face programs. The online services are run by volunteers located in both Australia and Latin America, which represents a unique offering in the market. In this way, people who are planning to come to Australia can participate in the online sessions and start working towards the level of English they need when they arrive to Australia. They can also learn what Australian life is like from people who are living here. They can start integrating and making contacts so that when they do come to Australia, they will have a network of people they know.

Since 2022, I have been a volunteer with the LLAMA providing advice on marketing strategies and CRM management. In 2024, upon arriving in Australia, LLAMA became a valuable professional reference. Thanks to that experience and support, I was able to apply for and land my first job in the marketing field within my first month in the country.
My name is Diana Maria. I’m a Colombian psychologist. LLAMA has been essential to my journey in Australia. I discovered then through social media, eager to put my knowledge into practice and make a difference, but in the end, it’s them who have made a lasting impact on me.
I have been able to attend English classes and community meetings, where I have met incredible people with unique stories that continue to inspire and touch my life. Thank you so much for all the amazing work you do!
Volunteering with LLAMA was such a great experience. I helped out at events and did some administration work, which really boosted my confidence and skills. That experience played a big part in helping me land a professional job in the TAFE sector in Melbourne. I’m grateful for the opportunity and would encourage anyone considering volunteering with LLAMA to go for it, you never know where it might lead!
