NATIONAL HUGGING DAY
National Hug Day or National Hugging Day occurs on January 21 and is officially recognized by the United States Copyright Office, but is not a public holiday. The purpose for the holiday is to help everyone show more emotion in public. There is only one way you are supposed to celebrate the holiday, offer a hug to anyone and everyone you want. While National Hug Day and the Free Hugs Campaign share many similarities, there is not actual association between the two. Whether you hug a family member or a stranger, the mental and physical health benefits are the same.
OBSERVE
Give someone a big hug and use #NationalHuggingDay to post on social media.
HISTORY
The holiday was founded by Rev. Kevin Zaborney on March 29, 1986 in Caro, Michigan.
