WASLI SPONSORSHIP

Dear Interpreters - As you know, the WASLI conference is coming up in
July and we have been attempting to find sponsors for many of the
delegates who simply do not possess the financial means to attend the
conference.  At this point we have 37 candidates seeking sponsorship,
and the majority of those people are from African nations.  Our
conference and organization will be stronger when we can have
representation from all of these nations, and yet to date, we have had
only 5 Canadian interpreters offer some financial support, and no
interpreters from other regions have completed the form to participate
in the program. 

However, Sorenson Communication has agreed to sponsor
some delegates.  We are hoping that interpreters will consider pooling
their resources and participating in this sponsorship program. I have
attached a letter that explains the program. I look forward to hearing
from any interpreters who may be in a position to contribute to this
program.  If you have questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to
contact me.
