English to Spanish Translator for Written Materials

Save to Favorites

We aim to provide all written information in both English and Spanish, but currently do not have any board members or major volunteers who speak Spanish fluently. To minimize pressure placed on Spanish speaking teachers or our district translator, we are seeking assistance with occasional translations. Our "About" page on our website is a good example of the kind of content we want to get translated (what is there now needs to be reviewed, as we used google translate).

We would like to be able to share a google doc with the volunteer with the text that needs to be translated. This could vary from text for a flyer or graphic, text for a facebook post, or content like that on our About Page. We will still ask our District Translator to review and edit translations for larger texts, so this is a great opportunity for a high school or college student or anyone else who is confidently bilingual.

Preferences:

• Spanish as first language
• Fluent English
• 48 hour turnaround time for smaller translations or good communication to help manage expectations
• Collaborative discussion if the explanations we are writing in English may not make sense once translated (ie. "Spirit Night" is a common challenge for groups like ours)
