The face we make when we hear that we're adding 9 new grant partners this year in addition to @ijm, @a21, and @mcmahonryancac! That's right, Dressember 2018 will now help fund anti-trafficking programs for 12 different organizations. With an issue as big as human trafficking, we understand the power that a holistic approach can have. We can't just focus on rescue and forget prevention, or focus solely on prevention when we need resources and rehabilitation. We've strategically partnered with organizations that are tackling different aspects of the issue so that you can be confident that your advocacy with Dressember will target the issue of trafficking from every angle. _ Stay tuned for our official 2018 grant partner announcements in October! _ 📸: @photography.mcfarlane #EndHumanTrafficking #Dressember #ItsBiggerThanADress
If you are new to Dressember, welcome! This is our team of passionate worker bees. _ We are an anti human trafficking foundation that fights exploitation through annual, interactive advocacy campaigns. We've raised over $5 million dollars since 2013 allowing us to fund valuable programs around the world combatting human trafficking. Register October 1st to wear a dress (or a tie) every day in December as part of our annual style challenge and join the fight against modern day slavery! Registration opens in ONE week! Are you joining us? Tell us where you'll be advocating from below. _ 📸: @funraise #Dressember #ItsBiggerThanADress #JoinTheFight
Standing against slavery doesn't have to be lonely. One of the best parts of #Dressember is finding out that there are others just as passionate about making a difference as you. When we come together, the results are often even greater than any one person could have achieved on their own. Plus, you'll have a built-in support and accountability system for those days when you just don't think you have it in you. Assemble your squad. Registration opens October 1st. _ #Dressember #ItsBiggerThanADress #teamwork #togetherwecan
It's the final countdown! 👗 Just 10 more days until registration opens for #Dressember2018! Start creating your team and spreading the word because December will be here before you know it. Plus, a reminder that pre-orders for the 2018 Dressember Dress Collection are 15% off until October 1st.

Now more than ever, the ability to choose ethical fashion is at our discretion. Even high fashion labels like @tomenyc, an every-womanswear brand that presented at NYFW last week, have made safeguarding the women who work for them a priority. In 2014, they began a project in which they launch an exclusive style of white shirt each season and donate 30% of the profits to Freedom For All, an anti-trafficking organization. In their further commitment to anti-slavery practices, they have since reexamined internal operations, monitored their supply chain, and conducted periodic check-in at their factories. Who says high fashion has to come at a high cost to the people involved? _ #FashionFriday #Dressember #ItsBiggerThanADress #EndTrafficking #ethicalfashion
Last year, @A21 held 400 Walks for Freedom in 50 countries. A21's founder @christinecaine declared: “There is so much power in gathering together, in showing up in force, and saying there are more of us against slavery than for it.” If you want to be a part of this incredible global movement then SAVE THE DATE for 10. 20. 2018. To search for your nearest walk and to register go to http://a21.org. We would love to see you Walk for Freedom in a dress because remember, #youcandoanythinginadress! _ #A21 #EndSlavery #WalkforFreedom
We as consumers have the power to change this statistic, to choose brands that empower and celebrate the dignity of their workers. _ #dressember #itsbiggerthanadress #untilallarefree #fashionrevolution _ Source: International Labor Organization
