[Sami Osborne]

Hi Bre and all,

Thank you for your email.  I actually would like to become a 
language interpreter or translator in the future, so translating 
the scholarship application might be a good experience and 
practice for me.  I speak Spanish fluently, having studied it in 
school for 9 years, and haven't gotten to practice lately, so 
doing some translations would be awesome.  I was not aware of 
anyone doing the Spanish translation, as nothing was posted to 
this list asking for volunteers, and I haven't heard of it from 
anyone else.  Does anyone know how I can become a Spanish 
translator for the NFB? If you don't know personally, do you know 
of anyone that I can contact? I know that the scholarship 
application is already translated, I'm just saying for the 
future, such as maybe translating next year's application and or 
other relevant NFB information.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Thanks,

Sami
