When I first heard about this idea I thought it was brilliant! As the guys who started this "free hug" campaign state on their website - Sometimes a hug is all what we need! Which is totally true! Sometimes I think hugs are underrated, cause it means a lot to everyone when they give AND receive a warm hug from someone. It doesn't matter who, as long as it's genuine... It truly can make you feel better and your day seems brighter. And I mean if you give or receive. Also knowing that you made someone's day nicer is a wonderful feeling! So, it's a double bonus!
Check out these guys and how they did it and see how you can join the movement - http://www.freehugscampaign.org/
Organize a free hug campaign in your town! Get your friends and family together and go to a public place with signs offering free hugs! I'm sure you will have people respond nicely because no matter how hard you try to be serious and cool, EVERYBODY APPRECIATES A WARM HUG! Undeniably! Also, you'll probably surprise most people cause when they get out of their homes I'm pretty sure they won't be expecting a hug on the way to work. ;)
What I read on this website is also that somehow this campaign was banned!! Unbelievable! So, make sure to check your local laws before embarking on your Hugathon!
Check out how it works on that website and check out this video to see how it goes!
Have nice hugging session!!
