We need $965 AUD (R12,000) to translate Tumi Tiger into IsiZulu. It will cost the same amount, $965 (R12,000), to translate into IsiXhosa.
Cost of translating A Story of Four Friends, our follow-up program on resilience into 1 language: R4,440 ($358 AUD)
Both languages: R8,880 ($714 USD)
Recordings costs: R18,953 ($1,524 AUD) per language.
Why these two languages?
In the home of the Zulu nation, Kwazulu-Natal, trauma is referred to as an epidemic. And the language is spoken by 11 million+ people.
IsiXhosa is spoken next door, with a further 10 million 1st language and another 10 million 2nd language speakers.
We can escalate the impact of Tumi Tiger's work and ministry tremendously if we can translate our no. 1 trauma tool into these two languages.
Total Cost for Both Programs in Both Languages
R70,786 ($5,700 AUD)
