I need 53 pages translated from Tigrinya to English for a family reunification file. Professional certified translation quotes are around $1,050, 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 never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

                      So sorry you're going through this, Janet. Shared this with my family. Wish I lived closer to Paris so I could bring a meal. Take care.

                        • Stay strong. Gave what I could, wish it was more. After 24 years in logistics I know how hard it is to ask for anything.
