Looking for a volunteer Somali translator: 50 pages

A bilingual volunteer, working online, could translate court and medical records for a family.

I need 50 pages translated from Somali to English for an asylum application. Professional certified translation quotes are around $180, which my family can't afford. If you're bilingual, and especially if you're certified or work in a related field, I'd really appreciate any time you can give. You can work on any portion; even five or ten pages helps. I'll send scans securely through the platform's messaging once we agree. The deadline is November, but earlier is better so there's time for review. I'll happily provide a letter of thanks and a reference. I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

    thinking of you and your family, Wambui. Shared this with my family. After 12 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
