Translators without Borders (TWB), a US 501(c) 3 non-profit with a translator training center in Kenya, was founded in 1993 to provide translations to non-profit organizations. In 2010, the organization started a virtual platform to better coordinate these resources. Our vision is a world in which information knows no barriers. We do this by providing life-saving information in languages and formats that people can access. In the last five years, we have translated over 37 million words of life-saving and life-changing content in nearly 190 language pairs. Our latest activations for the European Refugees, the Ebola crisis and Nepal earthquake have won widespread praise from the international community.
