Do you have bilingual proficiency in English and at least one of Spanish, Portuguese, Haitian Creole or French? If so, then Alfalit International needs YOU! Join our volunteer translator team and assist with translating documents for our international operations in over a dozen countries.

An ideal volunteer will:

  • assist with translating project materials, inter-office communication, reports for internal and external audience, content such as testimonies from our international students etc on as-needed basis
  • be able to work remotely or at our office (if working remotely, should have access to a computer with standard Microsoft Office applications and email)
  • preferably have experience in or studied translation
  • be detail-oriented and responsive to email
  • be comfortable using Microsoft Office applications (Word and Powerpoint)
  • be personable, friendly, honest, ethical, able to follow directions

We will provide clear instructions for each translation task and the volunteer coordinator shall be available on email (if you prefer to work remotely) to resolve any issues.

Native speakers of Spanish, Portuguese, Haitian Creole or French with professional or bilingual proficiency in English are welcome to apply.

If you are a new language learner with professional proficiency this is another opportunity to further your learning as you can set your own pace, as long as we as a team meet the delivery deadlines!

Translation may be done from anywhere in the world and on your schedule, with varying levels of time commitment.

We will provide you with a Certificate of Appreciation for your time and services, which you may use towards your community service hours.

Mission Statement

Alfalit creates hope and opportunity through literacy and education in order to improve individual lives, raise self-esteem, and share the love of Jesus Christ.

Description

Alfalit International, Inc. is a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit organization registered in the State of Florida. Founded in 1961, we change lives through literacy, basic education, early childhood development, job skills, and conversational English in Central & South America, the Caribbean, Africa, Portugal, and the United States of America where we focus on the literacy and conversational English needs of adult immigrants. The majority of our students are adults but we also reach out to youth and preschoolers when funding allows us to do so. All of our students are poor and many live in the remotest of areas. Our classes are taught in English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, and Haitian-Creole as well as some indigenous languages. While faith-based, Alfalit welcomes all religious affiliations (or none at all) to join our classes as students and teachers.
