Many companies promise to help support local communities and deliver a quality product to their consumers, but at what cost? While it might not be the price, it can sometimes be in the form of poor business practices such as hiring cheap labor or creating a cheap product.

What if something as simple as a dress could change the world? Dressember is an organization that challenges women to wear a dress, and men to wear a tie, for all 31 days of December. The purpose of Dressember is to raise awareness about human trafficking by starting a conversation.
