The Trump Administration has denied the Pebble Mine permit in Alaska, a great environmental victory in a decades-long battle to save salmon.
A moving company announced this month a new commitment to provide free moves to victims of domestic violence and those currently living in abusive situations.
Since the recent launch of the program, College HUNKS Hauling Junk & Moving has already completed over 100 free moves for those who are fleeing an unsafe situation in the U.S. and Canada.
This new program is even more important as more cities are going into lockdown and victims can end up being trapped during the pandemic without relief.
"I definitely think our Free Moves for Survivors of Domestic Violence program sheds light on a really important issue that is not often talked about," College Hunks co-founder Nick Friedman told WS.
"As a purpose driven, socially-conscious organization we're always looking for ways to positively impact our communities—in this case, particularly for those who feel powerless in unhealthy home situations."
20 years ago, another moving company, Meathead Movers, began offering free moves to people in abusive homes. Last year they donated more than $150,000 worth of moving services, partnering with eight domestic violence shelters in Central and Southern California.
Now, College Hunks Hauling is extending the same kind of help across their 131 franchise locations in the U.S. and Canada, offering the use of trucks and labor at no cost.
Individuals who need this kind of help should first contact their local domestic violence-prevention shelter to notify them of their situation.
A certified domestic violence-prevention shelter will then need to approve and coordinate the no-cost move requests through College HUNKS to ensure that the victim is supported throughout the entire transition.
Once qualifications for the free move are confirmed, the approving shelter works in partnership with College Hunks to execute the move in coordination with their local franchise owner and the local authorities, as needed, for the safety of both the victim and the assisting College HUNKS team.
Beyond domestic violence assistance, College Hunks has also provided trucks for transporting COVID-19 testing supplies and other medical equipment, for relocating beds and goods from one hospital to another, and delivering water to healthcare workers.
In addition, they have also been donating 2 nutritious meals for every completed job to Feeding Children Everywhere—with over 1 million meals donated since the program began.
College HUNKS Hauling Junk & Moving was originally founded by two college buddies, Omar Soliman and Nick who began using a beat-up cargo van to haul furniture. H.U.N.K.S. becoming an abbreviation for Honest, Uniformed, Nice, Knowledgeable, Service.
