When opening our first massage establishment in 2011, many of our closest friends thought we were crazy for naming it the “Happy Head”. There were plenty of reasons given against it, but we knew that we had a concept that had the potential to be big and do big things. The Happy Head name wasn’t just created to be funny, memorable, or for many other reasons that have propelled it to the fastest growing massage center in Southern California. We knew that one day we would have the opportunity to use the Happy Head name to bring awareness to a topic that needs to be heard. We’re referring to human trafficking.
Human trafficking is a form of modern-day slavery. It involves the use of force, fraud, or coercion to obtain some type of labor or commercial sex act. Every year, millions of men, women, and children are trafficked in countries all over the world, including the United States. Traffickers lure their victims and force them into labor or commercial sexual exploitation.
The victims of sex trafficking are silent victims. They are afraid to speak. They are held by chains of fear and shame. They are prisoners that can only cling onto hope before it is all lost. They truly need help to escape and find a path to a way out.
We are pleased to support the Bilateral Safety Corridor Coalition” (BSCC). BSCC is a human rights based organization founded in 2002 that actively works to prevent, intervene and eradicate human trafficking. BSCC is a local San Diego based organization that works to empower and help their clients regain their independence. They provide shelter, emergency response, crisis intervention and much more. Their mission is to live in a world where there is no exploitation and where men, women, and children’s lives are protected and held in high esteem. More information about their organization can be found at www.bsccoalition.org.
For the month of April and May, Happy Head Massage will donate $5 for every 90 minute massage that our therapists perform. Help us reach our goal of donating $10,000 to this worthy cause. We personally guarantee that our goal will be reached to help those suffering. Just get any 90 minute massage at Happy Head in the month of April or May and you’ll be helping so many escape their suffering. Thank all of you for your support. After all, it’s people like you who make what we do possible. Know that not only will your massage make you feel good, it may also save a life.
Thank you so much for your support. If you’d like to show your support now please consider donating to the BSCC at www.bsccoalition.org.
