Abstract

Payton McGriff, founder of the nonprofit S H E (Style Her Empowered) must decide on a plan to meet S H E's goal of sponsoring one million girls in primary schools in sub-Saharan Africa by 2030. The COVID pandemic has created a renewed sense of urgency for McGriff and her board. The specific decision McGriff must make is whether to continue to produce the innovative Dress that Grows in-house combined with the production and sale of fair-trade goods to fund operations or to outsource the production of school uniforms, relying on fundraising to generate the funds needed. Key to this decision is the fit with the multi-mission of S H E: 1) to educate girls, 2) to employ women, and 3) to practice environmental sustainability.
