Project details

What we need
  • Review of up to 20 pages of copy for grammar, style, tone, and consistency
  • Advice on how to write effective copy going forward
Additional details

We have a 30-page document designed to empower parents and carers of people with eating disorders with information and advice. We need someone to structure it and ruthlessly edit it down to about half its current length.

What we have in place
  • We currently have a google doc ready to go, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have people committed to moving this forward quickly, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $1,792 , allowing us to advocate for teenagers with eating disorders in a challenging world.

In the wake of the covid pandemic, there has been a serious increase in eating disorders worldwide. Shaare Zedek Medical Center is at the crossroads of the world and serves patients of all cultures and religions. We want to create an important resource and translate it into Hebrew and Arabic so that Shaare Zedek can provide culturally sensitive support and guidance to teenagers with eating disorders.
