Because Translated Words Make a Difference: The 20 Million Word Challenge

May 22, 2013 by TWB Communications

We are asking new and renewing sponsors to join us now to help us reach 20 million words by next year. And we are celebrating all of our sponsors at the Welcome Reception of Localization World on 12 June.

Ten million words translated. Words for Syrian refugees, doctors in Haiti, mothers in India and careworkers in Indonesia.

We are translating for humanity. In May we will celebrate 10 million words translated by our volunteers. What do these words represent? More knowledge accessible to more people around the world.

But there is so much more to do. The next 10 million words await translation. Those words include:

• Wikipedia medical articles available in 100 languages
• User manuals for water pumps in Uganda
• The voices of Syrian civilians

…and so much more.

Translators without Borders needs your help to do this vital work. Join us.

The time, know-how and funding from the localization and translation industry has provided the basis for all we have achieved. But we can do more.

How can you help? Join The 20 Million Word Challenge.

Whether you are a new sponsor or a renewing sponsor, we need your help to reach 20 million words for humanity!
