Friends,
Know Your City has partnered with 6 schools throughout Portland to bring you 5 new magazines and a cookbook. all written by youth.
We need copy editors and Spanish translators to help us get these publications out.
These articles are easy and fun to read. We make sure things are spelled correctly, and edit without taking away the voices of the youth.
If you are interested in this opportunity, please reach out to Lydia Grijalva by responding to this ad, or emailing Lydia@KnowYourCity.org.
Thank you for your time and energy. Looking forward to hearing from you.
