Translation

Project details

What we need
  • Specific copy from one document (up to 1000 words) translated from one language to one other of the Organization's choice
  • Note: If you need more than 1000 words translated or copy translated into more than one language, please post additional versions of this project
Additional details

We are looking to receive support translating some key information about our World Surfing Reserves into French so our communities across the world can learn about our reserves and conservation activities. It will require translating about 4-5 sentences for 10 World Surfing Reserves into French.

What we have in place
  • We currently have the documentation ready for translation, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have someone who can answer questions on technical terms, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $7,098 , allowing us to reach more people who want to protect and learn about the places they love.

We serve an international community and would love to be able to share our work with individuals who cannot speak English as their first language or a learned language.

Anaïs was so an incredible volunteer and asset to our project. She was responsive, took initiative and communicated about her progress and ability to support all along the way. She was very thoughtful and kind in all of our interactions and I would absolutely recommend Anaïs to anyone who needed support. Merci, Anaïs!
