Dressember
Dressember is over, but you can still donate until the end of the month!
Dressember is a fashion challenge for charity: women (and men, I suppose) wear a dress every day of the month in December to raise money towards freeing enslaved and abused women all over the world. 100% of the donated funds go directly to the International Justice Mission, an organization that helps abolish slavery, sexual exploitation, and other forms of oppression.
It is a cause that resonates deeply with me as a woman, as a style blogger, and as a follower of Christ, and I am excited every year to put into action these two verses: Proverbs 31:8 and Psalm 82:3, which say respectively “speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves; ensure justice for those being crushed.” and “Stand up for those who are weak and for those whose fathers have died. See to it that those who are poor and those who are beaten down are treated fairly. ”
You can be a part, too! This year, I am offering a medium size ad space in my sidebar to anyone who donates $10 or more. Bloggers, shop owners, photographers; whatever your website (barring the inappropriate), if you want to participate but don’t want to commit to a month of wearing a dress, and you want a month of ad space, all you have to do is donate here, and then let me know you’ve done so!
