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
Additional details

We have a brochure for clients that we would like to be translated into Spanish. It includes healthcare terminology and is approximately 200-300 words.

What we have in place
  • We currently have the brochure developed in English, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have a couple of Spanish-speaking staff for review, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $1,973 , allowing us to spend those funds on providing healthcare services, such as dental care, insurance premium assistance and hearing protection, to our musician clients.

We are trying to expand our reach in the music community to Spanish-speaking musicians. This is a starting point for additional literacy materials to be translated.

Our mission

We provide access to affordable healthcare for Austin's low-income working musicians, with a focus on prevention and wellness.

What we do

Many Austin musicians are self-employed and have no access to health insurance or basic healthcare. They often work multiple jobs and struggle to pay for food, clothing and shelter, with nothing left for healthcare.

That's where we come in. By resolving challenges such as long-neglected dental work to hearing loss, heart problems and depression, HAAM and our partners improve and save musicians' lives and enhance Austin's economy and quality of life. Austin is the "Live Music Capital of the World," and we aim to keep it that way.

We have helped over 5,300 musicians access over $73 million dollars in healthcare value since we began in 2005. These include routine dental work, doctor visits and prescriptions, psychiatric counseling sessions, eye exams, out-patient procedures, specialist referrals, hearing screenings and more.

Testimonials

Sandra was so easy to work with and we had great communication back and forth. She completed the translation much faster than we were anticipating - which is great! We definitely look forward to working with her again in the future and highly recommend!
