the27project

he issue of human trafficking. My desire to learn more about the industry led me on an 11 month, 11 country mission trip called the World Race. By the end of the 11 month journey I had left pieces of my heart in each country, specifically in Haiti, Moldova, Thailand, the Philippines and Cambodia. It wasn’t until I watched the movie Taken in a shack in Moldova that the vision for the27project was born. What began as a simple idea was soon fueled by the harsh realities I faced while on the field. The poverty level and high demand for commercial s*x in these countries makes them a breeding ground for human trafficking. At the end of my time there I said my goodbyes and vowed to commit my life to stopping the injustice of human trafficking. The27project organizes nation-wide running events called 27K for 27Million, which provides funding for organizations on the forefront of change, as well as inspire participants to use their voices to take a stand against modern-day slavery. My heart is to raise awareness, raise funding, and create a ripple of change in the nations.
