- What do CAM workers build and maintain?
Our workers build housing and language facilities for translation teams throughout the world. We also provide a wide range of maintenance services—from general groundskeeping to major repairs on village homes. In addition, CAM personnel handle projects such as:
- Installing systems for clean-water collection.
- Constructing simple furniture.
- Maintaining generators.
- Repairing vehicles.
We are also working with JAARS Global Information Technology Services to branch into the use of solar energy.
- What is a "general maintenance technician"?
A general maintenance technician is someone who maintains the facilities at a particular translation center. He or she keeps the facilities in working order, which allows translators to spend more time on their language work.
- Does CAM partner with other organizations?
Yes. We often partner with Wycliffe Associates to organize short-term volunteer projects. Our personnel also work alongside many other organizations as they build and maintain facilities worldwide.
- How do CAM workers equip local people to partner in translation support work?
One of our primary goals is to equip local people to partner in our work. CAM personnel often work hand-in-hand with local people during building projects, teaching them practical construction and maintenance skills.
