Translation vendor, TextPartner has raised $2,000 for <\/strong>Translator\u2019s without Borders (TWB) Fund-a-Translator Program<\/strong>. TextPartner is the first organization to raise money for this exciting new TWB program.<\/p>\n

The team at TextPartner cycled a total of 440kms from their branch office inKatowice,Polandto the recent ELIA conference inBudapest.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe journey took 4 days, through some of the most beautiful scenery inEurope<\/em>.\u201d Said Marek Gawrysiak, Cyclist and Operations Manager at TextPartner. \u201cThrough people sponsoring us, we raised $2,000 for TWB\u2019s Fund-a-Translator Program. This is enough to sponsor two Kenyan Trainee translators. As well as raising money, we had a great time and hope to repeat this next year<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n

TWB\u2019s Fund-a-Translator Program is part of the TWB Healthcare Training Center in Nairobi, Kenya. The Program invests funds and resources in local professionals to train as translators, building local language and translation skill.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis bike ride was an awesome effort!\u201d saidLori Thicke, President and co-founder of TWB, \u201cThe team at TextPartner did a great job and we now have the funds to start training 2 translators at the TWB <\/em>center inNairobi. To train local translators, we need to maintain a physical location, hire local instructors and manage technology and Internet access for the trainees. This all needs funds and TextPartner has really kick-started the effort<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n
