After hearing about Juan Mann and reading more about the Free Hug Campaign, we thought it would be great if Philadelphians could get together and organize a Free Hug Campaign sometime in the near future.
Organize your own Free Hug day with friends! Its a LOT of fun and its an awesome way to meet people too! You'll feel sooo much better after a day out hugging people. Leave a comment or send a message if you are planning your own outing and I'll post it in a blog so that others who may want to join you can meet up as well.
Help us get more Huggers by adding us as a friend and posting a bulletin to your friends to add us as well! THANKS FOR YOUR SUPPORT!

Sometimes, a hug is all what we need. Free hugs is a real life controversial story of Juan Mann, A man whos sole mission was to reach out and hug a stranger to brighten up their lives.
In this age of social disconnectivity and lack of human contact, the effects of the Free Hugs campaign became phenomenal.
As this symbol of human hope spread accross the city, police and officials ordered the Free Hugs campaign BANNED. What we then witness is the true spirit of humanity come together in what can only be described as awe inspiring.
In the Spirit of the free hugs campaign, PASS THIS TO A FRIEND and HUG A STRANGER! After all, If you can reach just one person...
