Meathead Movers in Support of Human Options
03.14.17
Studies show that one in three women have been victims of some form of physical violence by an intimate partner within their lifetime – many feel trapped and unable to escape.
In response, Meathead Movers, the Orange County-based student athlete moving company, works with leading local domestic violence prevention nonprofit Human Options, to help move these victims out of abusive situations.
Meathead Movers works directly with Human Options to identify the abusive situations and provide moving services at no cost. Not only do these services help the victims of domestic abuse, but they directly impact Meathead employees – consisting of predominately young men who believe that real men don’t hit women, real men help those in need.
