Dressember at Maranatha: Fighting Human Trafficking with Style

We are officially in December, and with that, we are excited to announce our participation in Dressember!

Every December, advocates from all over the world join the fight to end human trafficking by pledging to wear a dress or tie for December. Maranatha High School partners with the Dressember organization to raise money for the cause by allowing students to “dress up” for the month of December. Students who are interested in participating should view the instructions below to become an advocate at Maranatha.

Click this LINK to the Maranatha Dressember fundraising page, then click, “Become an Advocate” (located in the upper right-hand corner). Then click “Join Team” (make sure to include your first and last name) and donate a minimum of $10.00 to participate. After you create a page, share your link with family and friends to raise support and meet our goal.
