Dressember: Dress to Empower

Lauren Thornton

The Dressember Foundation was created to raise funds and awareness to stop human trafficking, women being used as objects, and slavery. Women are encouraged to wear a dress and men a tie every day in December to raise awareness of human trafficking and slavery.

During December of 2013, Blythe Hill decided she would wear a dress every day for the month of December to take a stand against human trafficking and slavery.

Blythe Hill was molested when she was young. When she started hearing about the prominence of human trafficking and people being used as slaves it “started a fire” inside her. Dressember is the product of that fire, a way to help to put an end to these heinous crimes. Blythe Hill became the founder and CEO of the Dressember Foundation and says, “Something that started as a simple idea became a global movement that created a pathway for not just me, but thousands of women to put a stop to one of the greatest injustices of our time.”

The organization's mission is to rescue, protect and restore the lives of victims. This is accomplished with the help of one of  Dressember’s partners, International Justice Mission (IJM).
The top five countries involved in sex trafficking are Russia, China, Iran, Belarus, and Venezuela according to USNews.com.
Anyone interested in joining the movement can do the following. Girls can wear dresses and guys can wear a tie and help spread the word of
in the month of December, and donations can be made on the website.
