Dressember's Blythe Hill Unpacks the Merger & Acquisition Journey with IJM

Missions to Movements

I'd love to hear from you! Send me a text message here and let me know what you thought about the episode. :)

What can we learn from the merger of two impactful nonprofits, and how can it reshape our approach to mission-driven work?
Join me as we welcome back Blythe Hill, the visionary founder of Dressember, who shares the inspiring journey of her organization’s partnership with the International Justice Mission (IJM). With limited resources and a challenging post-COVID fundraising environment, this strategic move opened up new opportunities AND expanded the reach of Dressember's mission to combat human trafficking.
You’ll hear about the emotional and practical challenges Blythe faced, how they announced the acquisition to their 200,000 contacts, AND the nitty gritty of the legal side.
This episode offers a transparent look at how to execute a successful strategic transition that ensures continued impact and support for nonprofit teams.
