Her Time celebrates 3 years of fighting for women's rights in society. 

If this opportunity still arose, we wanted to find out what is the reason why we have so many ambassadorx involved and if volunteering at Her Time brings them satisfaction. We have some of the responses, which include the volunteers' thoughts and why they are part of the HTR team.

Because you learn the most about a subject when you put yourself in the position of being responsible for explaining it to others. - Irina

Because you evolve best with people who have similar values to yours and who inspire you daily to get involved in bringing positive changes to society. - Gabriela

Because Her Time Romania is the way in which young people in our country can find people who share common values and ideas, the way in which they can build a future as diverse and inclusive as possible. - Beer

Because I want to socially help people of all genders who feel at risk due to discrimination and violence, injustices, and because I want all girls and women to feel safe on the street, no matter what time it is go, and regardless of how they are dressed or made up. - Daniela

I chose to get involved in HTR because I want to support and help promote the ideas advocated, in the direction of equal opportunities, inclusion and many others, which I consider necessary in the foundation of the morality of the whole society. I believe that this community is the perfect place to develop both socially, personally, and educationally, being surrounded during your work by diverse personalities, but with mentalities based on similar principles. – Paula

Because in HTR I found a community that welcomed me with open arms, helped me develop and taught me how to help other people facing discrimination, abuse, violence. - Alexandra

To get involved in a cause I believe in. – Rebecca

To be part of a close community where I feel safe and to be able to give other people the same feeling by informing them about Her Time Romania. - Alexandra

I chose to get involved in HTR to be part of a community where I can grow, where I feel safe and know I won't be judged and to help others in turn. – Ruxandra

Because I wanted to be part of a community that is based on mutual support and positivity as well as helping to form a better and more united society. – Brianna

Because I've followed HTR since it was founded and admire everything it stands for – diversity, inclusion, activism, community, intersectionality.  – Maria

Because it's a safe community where you can develop and share ideas. - Denise

For the community. I felt that it was the most suitable place where I could develop and which would give me the opportunity to talk about the values in which I believe. I remember writing on the entry form that "we need feminism because we can't fight alone" and I still argue that a dedicated community has the power to deliver the message that needs to be heard and be heard. – Irina

Because HTR is a united community that represents my interests! - Diana 

To be part of a community that has the same values as mine and to get involved in a cause that interests me a lot. - Ana

I chose to be a part of Her Time because I wanted to be part of a community that promotes gender equality and that would help me too. – Olivia

To meet people who share my values, to develop myself, to develop my skills and to make a real difference in my community. - Zena

I believe that one of the main challenges of the feminist movement in recent years (at least in Europe/North America/Australia) is the (wrong) belief that gender equality has been achieved. This erroneous perspective can lead to the undoing of progress achieved to date (eg the reversal of the Roe v Wade verdict in the US). It seems to me extremely important for this period not only to fight not to lose the advance obtained, but even to march for new reforms. So, here I am, ready to fight for our rights. - Monica

Because the most beautiful way to do what you like and support the causes you believe in is to do it in the foreground, with the help of people who share the desire for better with you, in a safe space. - Tonia

Thanks for your support and being part of this beautiful community!
