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
What we have in place
  • We currently have the activity book we need translated, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have all English text completed, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $2,383 , allowing us to Bring three classrooms on field trips to the San Lorenzo River.

The success of our organization depends on being able to communicate our message to all people - regardless of language spoken. Without your help, we cannot communicate our message to english language learners. All youth should be able to connect with nature in their backyards and with your help, we will create an additional opportunity for Spanish-speaking youth to connect with the river that runs through the heart of their community.

Our mission

The mission of the Coastal Watershed Council is to protect and preserve coastal watersheds through community stewardship, education and monitoring.

What we do

The San Lorenzo River runs right through downtown Santa Cruz, but the community isn't really drawn to this river. CWC is improving water quality and habitat and hosting family and youth-friendly events to improve public safety and environmental conditions, transforming this park into a cultural and natural asset that Santa Cruz is drawn to and proud of.
