As the result of the growing attention to issues related to human trafficking, individuals all over the world are becoming more engaged in volunteerism related to this issue (Limoncelli, 2017). Given that Romania is an origin, transit, and destination country for human trafficking (United States Department of State, 2017), various anti-human trafficking organizations within the country specifically utilize volunteers to provide prevention and intervention services in the community (GRETA, 2016). The purpose of this qualitative study was to explore the individual meaning and interactions within the family that may influence Romanians who participate in anti-human trafficking volunteerism within their own country of Romania. This research stems from the growing prevalence of human trafficking in Romania (United Nations, 2000) and the lack of research focused on both anti-human trafficking volunteerism and volunteerism within Romania. The researcher conducted nine face-to-face interviews with individuals volunteering within an anti-human trafficking non-governmental organization in Cluj, Romania. The volunteers’ interview transcripts were analyzed through first and second cycle coding. Methodological rigor was added to the study through the triangulation of data with member checking and peer debriefing. The findings of this study revealed diverse individual meanings and motivators for volunteering, such as personal or first-hand experiences, education and awareness, responsibility to others, and community or country pride. Volunteers also report mixed degrees of support from family members, ranging from pride in the volunteer’s involvement to a lack of interest or knowledge in the volunteer’s experiences. Regardless of the type of interaction within the family, individuals still had a desire to participate in anti-human trafficking volunteerism. Furthermore, throughout the interview process, many of the volunteers were continuously shaping the meaning of their volunteerism through dialogue with the researcher. It can be concluded that multiple meanings and motivators exist for anti-human trafficking volunteers and that this understanding may develop or change throughout the process of volunteering and through dialogue with others. Within the findings of this study, the researcher was able to generate implications for individuals, families, and institutions or organizations that utilize volunteers to combat human trafficking.

In the early 1960’s, President John F. Kennedy and the Peace Corps’ first Director, Sargent Shriver, designed two of the three goals for the new agency specifically to encourage cultural exchange between American Volunteers and their host country counterparts. These simple goals encouraged the idea that through sharing and learning about one another we could build relationships, foster understanding and ward off international conflict. In doing my part as a Peace Corps volunteer, I enjoyed countless hours with Romanian friends, sharing my perspectives as an American and learning about Romanian culture and tradition in return. These experiences were conveyed, through more than eighty-five thousands words, to a small but dedicated network of readers via the 27 de Luni blog. Photographs accompanied most of these blog posts for a visual illustration beyond the writing. This print edition of 27 de Luni includes the original blog content, still available online, with a few bonus photographs added in. As a not-for-profit endeavor, I would like this book to go beyond the readership of the original blog to reach more Americans and thus help further spread the sharing of these experiences. Many people that I speak with initially cannot spot Romania on a map and/or know the country only through Transylvania vampire lore. This presents a wonderful opportunity to introduce Americans to the richness of Romanian culture, that which I have come to appreciate and, in fact, adore. Additionally, many people are not aware of the benevolent and important work that Peace Corps staff and volunteers fulfill, often under incredibly challenging circumstances. It is my hope that through reading this collection, or simply perusing the photographs, that people will gain a greater understanding and appreciation for the Peace Corps’ mission, their volunteers and the international communities they serve.

In July 2004, the author volunteered to work at a summer camp for Romanian orphans. "These children epitomized the word SURVIVOR. They were loving, energetic, and full of life despite the trauma of their existence. I found them needy, emotionally draining, and champions at overcoming their sorrow and loss. Etched in my heart are the stories of their lives." Journey of the Heart recounts the author's experience and the deeply moving stories of these children. All proceeds from this book will be donated to Children on the Edge.

Forty-eight Americans fired with anticipation, free flowing adrenaline and serious anxiety, ranging in age from twenty-three to eighty two, touched down from Dulles Airport, Washington, D.C., in Bucharest, Otopeni Airport on June 16, 2001. We had volunteered to become United States Peace Corps volunteers in Romania for a two-year commitment. Our frazzled group was immediately bused to the city of Ploiesti, Prahova County, in south central Romania for language and cross-cultural training. We would be “trainees” for ten weeks and become “volunteers” upon completion. Who is to know, after weeks crammed together eight hours a day in classrooms how we would fare?
