Attention English speakers – simultaneous translation of Shdema lectures
Dear Friends,
PLEASE FORWARD THIS EMAIL TO ALL ENGLISH SPEAKING LISTS
As per the request of so many English speakers who want to come and hear the fascinating weekly Friday lectures in our Shdema Erets Israel Center but can’t because of the Hebrew, here is good news:
We have the opportunity to organize weekly simultaneous translations- we know where to purchase the (second hand ) equipment and we have the translators willing to come all the way to Shdema on a weekly basis- all we need now is sponsors who will help us fund this project.
The cost is as follows:
To buy the equipment (second hand in good condition):
2 transmitters = 660 nis +vat
Each earphone = 180 nis + vat (we would start with 40 earphones)
Translator = 1300 nis + vat per week
The total cost would thus be:
Equipment (for 40 earphones) : 9276 nis which is $ 2627
Translator: 1534 nis per week which is $ 434
There are at least 30 lectures per year which means
an expense of 46.020 nis or $13,000 per year
Total: equipment + translation service for a year: $15,627
Help us make this possible to strengthen Erets Israel!
Please email us with your pledge. We will only be able to go ahead with the project if we raise the funds.
Enabling us to purchase the weekly translation service will enable so many more people to come to Shdema on a weekly basis and thus strengthen the Jewish presence there even more.
You might consider dedicating the translations in honor or memory of beloved ones.
