| Want to know more about Translators4Kids? | Oct 13, 2005 |
Last December, a charitable idea involving us translators crossed my mind and I posted this idea at http://www.proz.com/topic/27354. Because the feedback was tremendous, Henry gave us a forum of our own at http://www.proz.com/forum/98 and we also were given a private forum.

Because the feedback was tremendous, Henry gave us a forum of our own at http://www.proz.com/forum/98 and we also were given a private forum.
Since last December, many wonderful things have happened: Translators from around the globe united to help disadvantaged children all over the world by using our unique skills as ambassadors of the word. We founded our own non-profit organization. We were able to attract wonderful sponsors and partners. We have a regular internal newsletter. And a website at http://www.translators4kids.com (although there are still some minor things and bugs we need to change, so please bear with us). And many other things. What we do need is more volunteers, of course.
I hope this is sufficient for a short introduction. I'd be happy to answer any questions!
Kind regards
Marion

| I would like to help | Oct 13, 2005 |
Hi Marion
As we don't have any kids of our own (and so far we can't, we're in the middle of an adoption proccess) I always try to help organisations dealing with children. So far I'm involved with Unicef and the Luis Figo Foundation.
I would gladly help too, but I need you to tell me how.

Dear Marion,
We've been in contact almost two months ago and I was to fill out the form and to return it to you... But, the business and the kid and all other things just got in the way! Sorry...
I will fill it out and send to you very soon!
Anyhow, the idea is great and I am looking forward to participating with all the assistance I can give!
