Help Make Our Communications Accessible for Everyone! Are you a wordsmith with a passion for inclusivity? Our nonprofit school EFBA is looking for a volunteer to help us make our website truly welcoming for everyone!
The images featured in our website efba.us and newsletters reflect our commitment to building supportive learning spaces for children of all abilities, backgrounds, identities and experiences. Now, we need your help to add alt text to these images. What is alt text? It's a short, descriptive phrase embedded in the website's code that screen readers use to describe images to people with vision impairments. Think of it as painting a picture with words! Why is this so important? By writing clear and concise alt text, you'll directly impact how people with vision impairments experience our website and newsletters. You'll ensure that everyone can understand our mission, feel a sense of belonging, and see that EFBA is a place where every child thrives. Your Impact:

  • Boost Accessibility: You'll be a key player in making our website compliant with accessibility standards, opening our doors to a wider audience.
  • Promote Inclusivity: Your words will help convey our message of belonging and support to every visitor, regardless of their visual abilities.
  • Empower Learning: By making our visual content accessible, you'll contribute to a more equitable and understandable online experience for all.
We're looking for someone who is:
  • Excellent English communication skills
  • Detail-oriented with a good eye for descriptive language.
  • Comfortable working independently.
  • Passionate about accessibility and inclusivity.
  • Has access to a computer and reliable internet.
No prior experience with alt text is necessary - we'll provide guidance! This is a fantastic opportunity to use your skills for good and make a tangible difference in our community. Ready to help us build a more accessible and representative online space? Volunteer to write alt text for EFBA today!

Mission Statement

Education Française Bay Area was created in 2009 by Gabrielle DURANA to give access to all children to a bilingual education, in our case French. We are a WASC accredited part-time school. Our non profit organization offers high quality yet affordable French after schools, summer camps and cultural programs to both francophone and French as a Second Language children, aged 5-18. The classes take place in local schools of the Bay Area. Our mission statement is simple: to provide a bilingual, multicultural francophone education, opening doors and minds to the world.

Description

"Ideas are a dime a dozen. People who implement them are priceless." Mary Kay Ash

We want to make the world a better place. We believe every child, every person has a potential and it is our individual and collective duty to empower that human through care, guidance and education to become truly part of society.

Care is not enough, we need action and we need justice. We are the change we seek. Howard Thurman once wrote: "Don't just ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you alive, and do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive".

Are you alive? Then let's put our energy into something bigger than ourselves and hold each other accountable to protect the children, protect the planet, protect the world's biological and cultural diversity. Yes, we can change the world together from here. Change will not come if we wait for some other person, for some other time. We, the people are the change we seek.
