OUR STORY
We Built Ladon
Translation Team
Ladon Public Benefit Corporation is a social enterprise incubated in the University of California, Berkeley in 2016.
Ladon brings the community together to bridge language barriers. We form a network of compassionate, well-trained, bilingual and bicultural language assistants who will go the extra mile to provide language support. We strongly believe that by bridging language barriers, we can help bridge the opportunity gap for underserved communities.
So that bilinguals like us can enable
and uplift our communities
Well, actually, many of us are multilinguals
"(In my first Ladon call) the desperation in the caller's words made
me realize how necessary it is for everyone to be able to
communicate with each other"
"It’s my passion and kinda what I'm better at since young"
"When I helped interpreting for my grandmother at a medical check-up,
I realized how much information is lost with a language barrier."
"I grew up speaking only Spanish. I love helping my community even
with something as simple as translating for someone at a grocery
store."
"Being multilingual is a blessing, and blessings are best used to
help those in need"
"My personal struggles as an immigrant piqued my interest in working
with communities similar to the one I grew up in."
