Anti-Trafficking Translator Volunteer

About Us: Love Justice International (LJI) is a Christian nonprofit driven by a singular mission: to share the love of Jesus Christ by fighting the world’s greatest injustices. We pursue this calling through two primary efforts—our expanding anti-human trafficking work and the care of orphaned and abandoned children.

We are looking for faithful, compassionate, and mission-driven problem-solvers—people who think deeply about how to fight injustice and share Christ’s love in a broken world. This isn’t just a job; it’s a calling. If you’re searching for an easy, comfortable career, there are plenty of other options. But if you’re drawn to work that demands sacrifice, boldness, and faith, we invite you to apply and explore how you can be part of this mission.

Love Justice International has been recognized as a Best Christian Workplace for four consecutive years (2021–2024). Learn more about who we are, what sets us apart, and our open positions at lovejustice.ngo/careers.

What We Offer: Opportunities to truly change lives are exceptionally rare—but at LJI, that is exactly the kind of impact you can have. Although we’re a nonprofit, we operate as an “Impact Engineering” organization, focused solely on maximizing real-world outcomes. By combining scientific and business principles with field-led, locally informed insights, we intercept potential trafficking victims for under $150 each, creating a ripple effect that prevents several more individuals from enslavement. This remarkable efficiency underscores the profound, far-reaching impact your work can have on countless lives. 

Joining LJI means stepping into an opportunity to deeply impact lives by combating injustice and expressing the transformative love of Christ. At LJI, you'll be part of a connected, purpose-driven team committed to impactful, kingdom-class excellence.

Position Type: Volunteer; Remote

Program and Position Overview: Love Justice International (LJI) combats human trafficking through transit monitoring—intercepting potential victims at key transportation hubs, where traffickers and victims are most visible. Because trafficking is already underway at these points, our teams can gather vital information to assist law enforcement in arresting traffickers and disrupting trafficking networks. To date, LJI has intercepted over 84,000 individuals, resulting in more than 1,700 arrests. For more information on our impact, visit our website: lovejustice.ngo.

To ensure excellence and understanding among our field offices in Asia and Africa, Love Justice internally translates our most important documents. There are a variety of documents, such as forms, instruction manuals, and training materials that need translation.

Love Justice currently internally translates into seven target languages (Amharic, Bangla, French, Hindi, Indonesian, Nepali, and Portuguese.) We are looking for a confident and experienced translator to help us build a strong program that consistently and accurately translates LJI materials. Our national staff rely on translation for understanding our requirements and forms; therefore, this is one of the most important roles at LJI.

The Anti-Trafficking Volunteer Translator will report to the Program Field Officer. 

The duration of this volunteer opportunity is flexible, but we ask for a minimum commitment of 100 hours. 

Key Responsibilities: The primary duties and responsibilities of the Volunteer Translator are the following:

• Complete multiple translation projects in one of our target languages

• Our primary identity is in Christ
• We believe God is sovereign over injustice
• We are made, called, and led By Christ
• We commit to connect with Jesus
• Prayer should be central to our work
• Our conduct is our testimony 

We believe that our mission is not only about what we do but how we do it—through faith, prayer, and obedience to Christ.

Qualifications:
