Why I am volunteering at XXX

French translation: Pourquoi j'ai choisi d'être bénévole pour l'association XXX

English term or phrase: Why I am volunteering at XXX Rebonjour, Toujours concernant le témoignage d'aide humanitaire que je traduis... Le titre est XXXXXX : Why I am volunteering at XXX Je souhaite trouver quelque chose de court et je me demande si « Pourquoi je suis bénévole pour XX » peut convenir dans ce contexte. Est-ce trop littéral? Est-ce une entorse à la syntaxe? J'ai aussi pensé à : - « Ce qui me motive à être bénévole pour XX » - « Les motivations de mon bénévolat chez XX » mais je ne suis toujours pas convaincue. Quelqu'un a une idée? Merci d'avance!

HERBET Abel 21:29 May 28, 2014  Melissa, remplacer "bénévole" par "volontaire" me semble mieux avec votre phrase courte katsy 21:01 May 28, 2014  Moi aussi je trouve que le tout simple "pourquoi je suis bénévole etc...." est très bien lorjouber (X) Canada 20:41 May 28, 2014  Je suis d'accord avec vous; je dirais "pour" s'il s'agit d'un organisme caritatif Leman (X) Morocco Parmi vos suggestions... 20:33 May 28, 2014  Je préfère - parmi vos formules déjà proposées - la première, 'Pourquoi je suis bénévole chez/pour ...'.
