Hi there, I’m Carolina - SOFII’s project manager.
THANK YOU for showing an interest in translating content for the SOFII website. This page is a quick introduction for you and will explain your role as a volunteer translator. It will give you all the information you need on how to get started, in just five easy steps!
Getting started
STEP 1
Choose an article or case study you find interesting and that you think would be particularly relevant to the people you are translating for. Some of our newer case studies would be a great place to begin. And if you are struggling for ideas you could see if anything interests you in this very popular showcase, The Best of The Best.
STEP 2
Translate the copy using a Word or Google document. Be sure to include a link to the original piece on the site and also please remember to translate the picture captions too.
STEP 3
Get your bio and headshot ready.
STEP 4
Send the translation, together with your bio and headshot, to carolina@sofii.org
STEP 5
If you enjoyed your experience translating for SOFII and want to do even more to help fundraisers around the world access the best of fundraising, then choose another piece on the site to translate.
And if you know of a fellow fundraiser who might be interested in translating for us too, spread the word! We want to get even more of our content available in as many languages as possible, and we’re so grateful for your help and support. THANK YOU.
What you can expect from SOFII
Every translation you send us will be credited to you and it will include your bio and photograph.
We will be sure to promote the translated work via our social media (LinkedIn, X, Facebook) and in our weekly email updates (which reach over 10,000 fundraisers around the world).
