Hug Holiday Day

Date When Celebrated : This holiday is always observed on June 29

Hug Holiday Day encourages us to give hugs to those who need them. On this day, people go out and give hugs at senior citizen centers, hospitals, and other places. The focus is upon elderly, sick and invalid, lonely people and anyone who needs the warmth, cheer, and love that a hug provides.

This very special day was created by the "Hugs for Health Foundation". According to the Foundation:

" Hug Holiday is founded on the premise that hugs, friendship and volunteer support are vital components to the overall senior care plan."

Celebrate Hug Holiday Day today by:

• Giving hugs to those who need one
• Joining Hugs for Heath
• Making a donation to this or another group

For more information, see the  Hugs for Health Foundation website
